I am an Olympic junky - but it is hard this year.
I was shocked when I turned on the TV for the opening ceremonies and it was not on my faithful channel 9. I am used to the Canadian station covering the Olympics. How can they not cover the Olympics in their own country???? Turns out it is on a Canadian station we don't get.
So instead of my fix of cross country skiing, biathlon and other sports you don't usually get to see (yes - even curling!), we get too much snow-boarding, too much short track skating and not enough long track skating. And also - all the interviews instead of just covering the sports.
Did get to see one cross-country race (probably only because a US guy was supposed to get a medal which he did). So I sit here with my computer, with the TV on - as I troll the web trying to find what I want to watch.
May just have to try to go to London for the next Olympics if I can't get Canadian coverage.
