Definitely hockey. I'll watch it whenever I'll have the chance. I hope they're gonna cover most of good matches on TV.
Also, I found biathlon to be thrilling and interesting sport to watch lately. So I'm gonna give it a go too.
I look forward to everything around the Olympics though. There'll be finally enough sport on TV for a while. :)

Snowboarding is def my fave. It's the most exciting IMO. http://www.sochi2014.com/en/snowboard

There are others I love to watch as well. Hockey, freestyle skiing, ski jumping, luge & bobsleigh.

The last few Olympics, I've enjoyed watching the Winter ones more than the others.

I watched some snowboarding last night. It was so badass!

I feel asleep before I got to finish watching all of it though. I'm glad they have repeats HaHa

Really enjoyed watching the men's slopestyle today Sage Kotsenburg from USA was amazing and well deserved the win.

It was unfortunate that Jamie Nicholls didn't get a silver in this as he did well but messed up when he slipped off the first rail. He just missed out on the medals :(

I also enjoyed the Mens 5000m The dutch men destroyed their opponents Gold for Sven Kramer, silver for Jan Blokhuijsen and Bronze for Jorrit Bergsma.

Didn't enjoy watching the Men's 10km Sprint, it made me feel ill when I seen this man slobbering, blergh and I can't even look at a baby slobbering (puke)

Enjoyed the Womens Moguls the Canadian sisters did really well Justine Dufour-Lapointe took gold and her older sister Chloe Dufour-Lapointe took silver, I didn't believe Hannah Kearney from USA deserved the bronze tho as she totally messed up after landing the first kicker she ****ed her leg like a dog and then got her balance back. To me that's a very bad mistake not a slight one. I know Kearney was the defending champion but I still don't believe she deserved any medal after her final performance!! Aiko Uemura deserved that bronze medal her mistake was nowhere near as bad imo.

Curling is winter king.

All the ski stuff is on old olympic style rules.

The jumpers are used to much, much larger slopes. So they all just went for distance without need for caution, or style. The slope style was so screwed up that some boarders begged off rather than risk their lives. The downhill was like a practice run with some good jumps in it.

The Russian commentators are openly insulting USA competitors. Here's a cuppla statements according to translators. And it goes on continually. "Ohhhh... heres the one with the crooked legs." "Now we must wait till the fat little boy finishes before..."

The Ruskies have gone out of their way to screw this Olympics up. Just goes to show you how effective you can be when you put your heart in it.

I always support a player no matter where they are from, that is disgusting that their commentators are allowed to air that kind if BS. A lot of Russians do not like Americans or Brits, which I think is pathetic, dislike the individual not because of where they come from!! It all borders to one boring thing, fecking politics BS!!!

I also like curling, kind of like bowls on ice :D

I am watching the Men moguls now and I hope Ben Cavet wins for france as he is actually English but the UK being as retarded as this country is, would not fund their own guy and cos he has French relatives he went there and got funded by France.

It pisses me off tho when GB didn't do as well as planned in the Summer games the UK was kicking off and they pull a stunt like they get a high potential athletic and then tell him we wont be funding ya!!! (WTF) Maybe if he had no potential what so ever, they might consider it!!! :rolleyes:

We broadcast it on a normal channel not a sports channel, so the original programming will be changed for the two weeks that its on for.

Same your standard channel doesn't do this too.
