Living the Dream...

11 February 2006

It's Winter Olympics time, and I hope that means a resurrection of the Ice Dream
with Roy and H.G. I really do miss the Smiggin Holes 2010 plugs (although I think Vancouver/Whistler, Canadia won that one), and the Hugentoblers, and the stupid foreigners doing the Australian weather with all of the place names moved around on the map.

I wonder if we will be treated to another Steven Bradbury this time around?
But the highlight of every games is the channel seven commentary team.
Bruce McAvaney has an uncanny ability to completely transform into Captain Obvious in
the length of a single phrase. Comments such as "Well, he's going to win unless he comes second", and "At the end of the day, the better team will win"* are really what makes any major sporting event worth watching.


Let the games begin...

    I must say I'm not a big fan of the Winter Olympics except bobsledding, but thats because of 'Cool Runnings'
