Canada's contingent made me jizz in my pants!I will be rooting for atractive women in all sports regardless of nationality. The US had a surprising number of hotties competeing.
I can't wait for ice hockey to start (tonight!) It may be the women's, and there's no checking, but it will be interesting to see the women play on NHL size ice. Perhaps we'll see more cycling and hopefully the refs will let some physical play go.
I don't know why, but curling is probably one of the most exciting winter sports. I think this is the case because the spectators are always on edge and even the competitors show so much emotion with the screaming and all.
Also, the biathlon and cross country skiing are very interesting events. After watching a Bud Greenspan Olympic documentary and understanding both sports somewhat, it becomes increasingly exciting to watch, rather than an enigma.

in olympic hockey, you can just keep sending the same guy out there in shootouts?!
The way understand the rule is that you need to have three different shooters go first. If more shooters are needed then you can use anyone to shoot the remaining shots.

This is right under IIHF rules. See Jonathan Toews - 2007 World Jr. Championships.The way understand the rule is that you need to have three different shooters go first. If more shooters are needed then you can use anyone to shoot the remaining shots.
