|
Unfortunatley I'm gonna miss like 2/3 of the Olympics this year 'cause I'm going to L.A. for about two weeks 
In one way I kinda despise the Olympics this year because there's gonna be no NHL when I'm in the US cause every player is in Torino, and as a hockeyplayer and fan I really would have loved to go see some NHL. But we didn't think about this when we made our reservations... 
Anyway, my favorite sport when the Olympic wintergames is on is defenetly hockey and skiing. Can't really choose, but I think I have to say hockey -- though I do have very many extremely sad and angry memories from last Olympics in Salt Lake City when it comes to hockey.... does anyone know what I'm talking about?
(and I have to add that the winter Olympics is not as good as the summer ones.)

Sorry! But no!  I just don't watch the winter Olympics ...
And I am probably the only one in my country since we are very good in skiing! Maybe you heard of Janica Kostelić?

If I've heard about Janica? It's all about Janica!!  Have you heard about Anja Pearson? Janica and Anja always compete against each other, kinda  And most often Janica wins, but we'll see who's best in the Olympics Today she competed with fever, that wasn't so good for her I think.
... and YAY! Hockey is in the lead!

I agree, but that just shows her dedication to this sport! She is really amazing!

Oh, she is She came first today, on the same time as that Spanish girl! That was really cool that they had the exact same time

She is and I think she started today because she doesn't want Anja and the others to take in more points in the total cup, which she's leading. But unfortunatley she didn't get any points today since she didn't start in the second, so Anja and Maria Jose took about 100 points each, so they're close...

I wish them both luck even though I'm not such a huge fan of skiing! I love handball and today we just lost a game on the European Men's Handball Championship from France so I'm a little pissed off right now! 
We were in the semifinals...and we are really good in handball so I don't get it....Ah well....

Yeah you guys are really good in handball too! I remember a few years ago when Sweden was in the final and it was soo exciting!! Croatia is really good in a lot of sports like soccer! We had to qualify towards you, and it wasn't easy

Yes,we are good in handball, skiing, tennis...but not so good in soccer anymore! We don't have such a great team as we used too!
I wish Anja (she has the same name as I do ) luck at the Olympics! It is gonna be interesting to see Anja and Janica compete since they are both really good!

Yeah I hope Anja or Janica doesn't catch a really bad cold or something, especially not Janica since it didn't look like she felt good today...
But hey, I think your soccer team is pretty good. Everytime we're gonna meet them it's like this HUGE thing over here! A lot of talk and other stuff... especially this last summer when we qualified against you guys but we both got to Germany this summer anyway, am I right?

Haha, I didn't know that until now I was away on a game, and while I was sitting in the locker i saw on a teeny tiny small tv-screen that Janica won, and that it didn't go that well for Anja... But I didn't knew she fell... well, I'm gonna go away read about now, haha.
And BTW -- yes, you guys are popular in Sweden, haha the press likes to keep an eye on you in different sports so... hehe

Yeah I really hope so too! It would be great but I think it's very unlikely... I dunno all the groups and stuff, but maybe we'll meet in the finals?? Now that would be awesome!
And the game I was on, hehe, I play hockey. It was on a hockeygame yesterday I sat there and waited for my turns and I saw the TV. My coach went nuts on me for watching the TV insted of concentrating on the game
