I really do enjoy watching the winter Olympics as in my young and foolish days I did make the final try outs for the Olympic ski team. I was not good enough to make the team in either event, but got to ski against a few of those who did. The talent today of these great athletes, training regimens, equipment and the ability to measure time has really upgraded the quality of the events.
However it seems that the amount of advertising on NBC evening coverage is 50% of the broadcast time. It has really spoiled the venue IMHO.
