Dessert: How many medals do you think the U.S.A. will win this summer?
OK...that's the feast for this week. Enjoy the opening cermonies tonight -- on tape -- since I think it's already tomorrow in Beijing! I hate when the games are in a time zone that is almost a whole day ahead of us!
1. Winter
ReplyDelete2. When Sale and Pelletier won the gold medal in 2002 Winter Olympics amid a judging scandal. Oh the drama!
3. No. But I would like to see a winter olympics
4. figure skating. that was my dream when i was a kid.
5. 125, at least 30 of them gold.
1. Prefer the winter
ReplyDelete2. I honestly don't pay enough attention to the Olympics to have a favorite moment. I know, I am not human.
3. I was so close to qualifying back in 2006 for the curling team but just missed it. So no I have never been, thanks for bringing it up. ;)
4. I would love to do snowboarding....that looks like fun!
5. Really don't pay much attention, whatever number is alot.
1) Winter
ReplyDelete2) USA Hockey Miracle vs. USSR.
3) Never been - tried to get Salt Lake tickets but struck out in lottery.
4) Hockey or wrestling
5) No estimate - don't know how many the USA is in contention for.
TAHL
WK...uh, curling? really? hmmm....
ReplyDelete1). Summer games for sure
ReplyDelete2). i always liked when that one gymnast (kim zimeskel maybe?? spelling?) did her balance beam or vault routine with a broken ankle or something and was carried away by her coach.
3). i would be swimming.
4). uh...90? i have no clue!
Appetizer: Summer!
ReplyDeleteSoup: I'm going general here: the second a gymnast lands his/her routine; the second a swimmer touches the wall at the end of a race; the second a diver hits the water - I love the look on their faces when they complete a solid performance.
Salad: No, but it'd sure be cool.
Main Course: Gymnastics, specifically the uneven bars.
Dessert: 111
Summer or winter: I think I like summer better. (In the winter, I'd probably say winter. I just LOVE the Olympics period.)
ReplyDeleteFavorite moment: Yikes, how to pick just one. The Keri Strug moment is tough to beat (SHE'S the one who landed on one ankle). I also remember when Greg Louganis hit his head (although not a happy moment) and I'd have to say last night's relay was pretty fantastic.
Ever been?: No, but I know someone who is a volunteer in Beijing right now. Here's her blog for anyone interested. http://www.bingenuity.com/category/beijing/
Play a sport: Gymnastics and diving.
How many medals: One million.
I want to change my Main Course answer to trampolining!
ReplyDeleteAppetizer: Which do you prefer, Summer or Winter Olympics? both!
ReplyDeleteSoup: What is your favorite Olympic moment? gymnastics, ice skating, swimming (I can't pick ONE)
Salad: Have you ever been to the Olympics - either as a participant or a fan? No, unfortunately
Main Course: If you could play one Olympic sport, what would it be?
beach volleyball, then I would have a beach volleyball body
Dessert: How many medals do you think the U.S.A. will win this summer? one meeeellion gold medals ....muhahahhaa
