I can't wait.  Bring on the US hockey team!  I hoping some players from the Philadelphia Flyers and the Philadelphia Phantoms will play.

The teams have all been announced in the past few weeks, and can be found in the Olympic news feed http://www.vancouver2010.com/olympic-hockey-news/

Time for some curling.
They can be close at the top, too.

The Philadelphia Phantoms don't exist anymore.  They're not in Adirondack, NY.

I won't be watching any of the olympics.  Bring on baseball season after the super bowl.

Thank God somebody here besides me actually watches and enjoys curling. :P
Well, this week was supposed to be a return to normalcy, but that's clearly not allowed.  Since you feel there is no need for this week's FPG to continue, I feel there is no need to continue as an FPG host or a G-R.net member.  Since most people are so desperate to push me out of here, why delay it?  I would have preferred that everybody publicly admitted it rather than string me along for the last two days, but it is what it is.  I am hereby resigning as FPG host and moderator, effective immediately.  whammy007 is the new permanent host.  No R-rated rant or airing of grievances from me.  Just a polite "goodbye for good".

I'm from B.C. and the Olympic flame passed through my hometown (Castlegar) today.  I was about to run outside and stomp on it, but I controlled myself.  I'm kinda anti-olympics.  British Columbia really doesn't need them.  Health care and education are in the toilet and we have on of the highest debts in the country.  The Olympics will only make things worse.  But hey, at least we'll get some cool hockey games out of this (hopefully).

With luck, perhaps this will be the Olympiad the Jamaicans finally break through to the medal platform come the bobsled finals; perhaps returning to the land where they first caught the attention of the world (and Candy's home country for another) will work in their favor this time around.

Don't forget about the women's team... lots of good-looking girls on that team. I was surprised. 8-O
