there sure were some problematic aspects with sotchi, and compared with olympic games i've watched before, i've been a bit underwhelmed ... ... but the general feeling of watching such a big event is so special. :)
Hehe, no underwhelmed feelings here, that will probably happen the next Winter Olympics. As the chef de mission of the Dutch team said: 'We better enjoy it now, because we're probably never going to be this good again'
oh, i'm not THAT underwhelmed by the sport itself, more the whole surroundings. like all the political stuff in russia. - also the crowd was not as awesome as in all the olympics that i've watched before. they very often cheered for russians only, or cheered when others made mistakes so a russian athlete would be in favour (see figure skating). that's nothing i want to see, as it's unfair, and i don't get why people behave like that. but i don't want to be a downer here ... i'm always happy to watch these big events, and try to shut out the negative sides as good as possible. :)
It was great! Canada came away with gold in both Women's and Men's hockey and for this country that is the most important thing. People dettrime if it's a successful on how well we did in hockey.
