I have watched a little of the Olympics. Isn't it just a venue that SHOWS everyone how people from different countries with different ideologies can get together?
Yeah, it is where different countries play in one place. To me-it's not important which country wins--I just pick the most interesting one to win. For example: A Canadian hockey team was playing against a German hockey team--I voted for the German team to win, but they lost 5 - 1.
I usually vote for the Russians in the figure skating, and the Germans in Luge.
Curling-I didn't understand until this year. I don't have a favorite team, yet.
