I rarely miss the Winter Games. Rather watch them than the summer games. Just hope that everyone stays safe with all of the terrorist threats out there.
I miss barrel jumping - - now that was a sport
Shaun White. 'Nuff said.

Shaun White (snowboarder) withdraws from Slopestyle Course - too dangerous
White cited continuing concerns about the course in his reason to preserve himself for the halfpipe. As is custom with most snowboarding events, riders met with course officials after testing it out.
White was the only American to even attempt to make both teams and struggled with injuries throughout qualifying for the U.S team. A sprained ankle he suffered in the halfpipe forced him to pull out of the first slopestyle qualifier
"With the practice runs I have taken, even after course modifications and watching fellow athletes get hurt, the potential risk of injury is a bit too much for me to gamble my other Olympics goals on," White said in his statement.

Sure, Shaun...the "slopestyle course" really needs to be your biggest concern over there...

Si ventus non est, remiga
They picked such a wonderful location, didn't they? 50 degree weather, terrorists, hackers galore. Good choice.
Anyways, I'll be watching USA hockey as much as possible. I want redemption from 2010.
The athletes really can't concern themselves with any of that. If they do, that's when injuries happen. They have to trust that there is enough security to keep everyone safe. And besides, the terrorists want the athletes to be scared - it's their M.O. They were hoping that they'd scare people enough to cancel the games, but that obviously didn't work. It doesn't mean they still won't try something, but still...just like those of us here in the States, life does go on.
Martin St. Louis will replace Steven Stamkos on Team Canada's hockey team. I'm sure Flyers fans are pissed that Claude Giroux didn't get selected - and that makes me happy.
I love Russia

Here’s an early front-runner for best picture from the 2014 Games -- the Terrible Towel has made it to Sochi!
That’s Allegheny General Hospital nurse Andrew Kuznyetsov, who’s in Sochi providing medical care at the Games.
“You have to represent Pittsburgh,” Kuznyetsov told WPXI Katherine Amenta before he left.
Great job with the Pittsburgh pride, Andrew! http://bit.ly/1aI1VBN
