Probably the only way you'd get me to watch the winter Olympics is if they moved women's beach volleyball from the summer games...

I used to love watching the Olympics, both summer and winter. Lost interest in them years ago when they seemed to become more spectacle than sport. Too much corruption in the IOC and sporting bodies, too many athletes or sports "journalists" using it as a forum to spread their socio-political crap. Certainly not interested in rewarding NBC or the PRC this year.
The natural snowfall that happened this weekend at the Olympics is SO rare there that they actually cancelled events because of it. They cancelled winter Olympic events because it snowed.

Non state sanctioned snow?
Assuming there are no weirdness, no politics, no crazy advertisement, it had low interest in US.
Very little and spotty coverage. Just covering highlights gets old. They were doing thst for about 15+ years.

Other than that, I didn't watch it.
I feel for the athletes who truly are in it and who have worked so hard for their entire lives; they can't help it the government has shit the bed and foreign governments are obviously Insect Overlords in people suits. There are some incredibly skilled people representing the US. The fact that there are US Citizens actually competing for China still has me struggling to understand how that's even legal, much less a thing....and much less the character of said individual, but that's neither here nor there.
I dunno....Quote:

I know in the past, there were Canadian playing for Team USA and etc.
This 2022 Olympics has been way too many of those different nationality competing for different nation.
