alpine ski racing.\ni like it because you get this awesome feeling when your doing it. your adrineline is pumping and it is awesome! it is also awesome to watch because you see people going really really fast and railing these turns! it isn't the most popular sport in america but you should try it to see what im talking about.

no way! come on get a life. olympics come once every 2 years and winter olympics come once every 4 years! try something new. look at skeliten or downhill ski racing instead.

It is (I know this for sure, because I am going there this summer) happening in British Columbia, Canada. More specifically, Vancouver, and the surrounding areas. There are numerous mountains for the downhill (skiing and snowboarding) events to take place at. The indoor events (ice skating, curling, etc.)- as well as the opening/ closing ceremonies- will happen right in Vancouver. I'm not sure where the nordic, and other outdoor events will happen, but probably just outside the city. They have really great facilities everywhere, so even though they have a lot of work to do, they already have a great head start. Also, I know from experience, the village at Whistler/ Blackcomb are great "tourist" attractions, and there is a great deal to do right in Vancouver.

I think my favorite olympic sport is probably SPEED SKATING.  I like speed skating because I like waiting for the suspense to see if some like Apollo Anton Ono falls again. I like watching to see who will move on and go win the medal.

Obviously this way, with the Summer and Winter Olympics not falling in the same year, it keeps people talking about it more often. And when they were both in the same year, I think it was easier to overlook Winter, since the Summer Olympics are more popular.

Hockey, by a mile!  It's fast.  It's exciting.  It makes me jump on my couch and scream: Let's go Rangers!!!\n\nWhy do I love hockey?  Here are a few reasons:\n\nJagr, Lundqvist, Prucha, Malik, Kasparitis, Sykora, Nylander, Ward, Moore, Ortmeyer, Hollweg, Straka, Rucinsky, Ruccin ... and so on.

Well, speaking as an avid fan of the Olympics (but someone who likes to see all the events), I would have to opt for Salzburg (Austria) (as it's not that far off GMT)

I love it.  I have been skiing for over 40 years and hope to be able to continue skiing for at least another 20 years.  Alpine skiing is exhilerating.  Cross country skiing is certainly an excellent aerobic exercise.\nSome of the places where I have enjoyed skiing are in Quebec: Mt. Tremblant, Mont Ste. Anne; and in Kitzbuehel, Austria.

It's one of my favorite winter olympic sports,  especially the short track stuff that Apollo was in.  But I don't actually pay attention to it other than during the Olympics

The US - Russia semi final game in the 1980 olympics had to be the greatest game from a US perspective.\n\nHowever a personal Favorite of mine (and a very close second) was game 7 of the 1994 Stanley cup eastern conference semi-finals between the NY Rangers and the NJ Devils.\n\nHowie Rose's call of the Game winning goal in the 2nd OT still gives me goosebumps \n\n"Mateau, Mateau, Mateau. Stephane Matteau and the Rangers have one more hill to climb baby, but its Mt. Vancouver. The Rangers are headed to the finals"
