The weather we've been having has me watching the Olympics for the first time in decades. Here's my impression:

The winter Olympics is about various ways to move on ice or snow. You can skate and sometimes to music, board or ski, ride a sled, or push an object. Some people do silly things in the air and some people shoot at targets to enhance the experience. They keep trying to outdo one another with maneuvers that will eventually kill someone. And then they're surprised that people get hurt.

I have an idea. Why don't they leave all of those athletes off in Siberia with a GPS and guns or knives for hunting, let them choose skis or skates or sleds, and make it a survival game. Everyone who gets to Sochi alive gets a medal and an interview with the NBC interviewer of their choice.

I like it. Extreme Olympics...although instead of leaving the NBC interviewers in Sochi they should go with the athletes, and the ones who make it back get to be on TV for the next 4 years.
