Below is a link to an NBC television site.

In the lower right corner is a place for you to votefor your favorite olympic sport. As of last night Skiing was in 3rd place. Figure skating was #1, bobsled & luge was #2. Vote now so that we will not be stuck watching two straight weeks of figure skating & hockey in February (like we did in 8 years ago with CBS, or even 4 years ago with NBC

voted. we hardly ever see skiing.

actually i hate when nbc covers skiing. they only show the big names from the big countries when there are so many skiers that arent that well known but ski well.
