Winter Olympic Games - Torino *Spoilers*

I thought I'd start a thread for it. I saw the opening show last night and it was quite good I think. In the middle it was getting boring but in the end the fireworks were amazing!

So if you have something to say about the Games write here.

eah the opening was really good... anyway.. about the games itself, i hope Janica Kostelic wins gold, i think that would make her like the most succesful womens skier in the world, i think i rea that somewhere ^_^

the opening was good, the best part was when some people were 'riding' ducati models and when Badoer did a lap with ferrari F1 car. And when people made a ski jumper, that was amazing, oh and the pigeon was also good.

As for the games I hope that Tina Maze wins a medal in alpine skiing (she's good in giant slalom and super-g) and that our ski jumpers win a medal too, like in Salt Lake city 4 years ago. In hockey I want Canada to win... and that's all :p

there was Pavarotti in the end of the show. That was italian music
BTW as they 'made' the Olympic five-circles was great.

well we ( finnish people ) have high hopes to get a lot of medals from thes games and I believe we will (even if the games didnt started very well today)

Stuffed pigeon breasts ... yummy, that's really good.

I admit I know sweet f*ck all about snow related sports, simply because it lacks bhp. Anyway, I wish all athletes the very best. Break a leg, folks!

I only know that there is one in cross-country skiing

Jennifer Heil got gold in moguls :D

have you seen the ski-jumping today?
Our Commentator (Hungary) was screaming during the whole event. It was funny.

uh yeah ski jumping well yay we got silver (Matti Hautamäki) but I think we lost a gold medal because Janne Ahonen did have a bad luck with wind conditions in second jump

does anyone know where to get live net coverage? english audio preferably
