I don't think the Olympics are COMPLETELY boring... but the problem is you've gotta sit through hours and hours of boring coverage to get to the five minutes each Olympics that's actually interesting. Like, I actually enjoyed watching the final event where Michael Phelps broke the record 2 years ago... but sitting through all the other events would have been torture.

I like some of the more obscure sports like the hammer throw. I like the weightlifting, too. Those guys are beasts.

USA hockey is bringing back the olympics in this country. Not much else to watch that is this exciting. This is the first win against Canada since 1960. Russia better be bitting there nails cause were comin for them. A gold in hockey will be the biggest thing almost ever in winter olympics for USA.

Not nearly as impressive as 1980.

Ryan Miller was as impressive as any Olympic goalie EVER though.

STILL
everyday see some article of something going wrong at the olympics....

Tragedy won't lure me to watch it though.
I have never been into the Olympics even though I truly admire all the athletes for their mad sports skills.

Winter Olympics are big over here
 
Ehm, I might be the only one, but the Olympics are huge in Holland, especially the speed skating. I personally love it ever since I was a kid and with me millions more. The Dutch are usually very good at it and this year is no different.
