With the games coming to a close shortly, what sport did you pay the most attention and what do you think was the biggest surprise of the games?

As a hockey lover, I been watching the hockey tournament closely and I think there were two big surprises. First, Russia's early departure and the USA - Women's Team giving up the 2 - 0 lead to leave with the Silver Medal

SGT Keen,

I'm with you. The hockey has been OUTSTANDING! The U.S. Women's Team collapse was painful but it was still an exciting game.

The snowboard and ski halfpipe and slope style competitions were probably my second favorite. The tricks those crazy people pull off are beyond belief!

I'm not a big hockey fan but i've enjoyed watching the US Hockey teams. I think my 6 year old is a little more into it than me though. He woke up last night crying because the United States lost. I'm not looking forward to his reaction when he finds out the mens team lost today.

Big hockey fan here also. The US Men's win over Russia was phenomenal. The US Women's loss to Canada was heartbreaking. This evenings US Men's loss to Canada was also heartbreaking. These three games have probably been some of the best hockey I have seen in a long time.

Looking forward to the second half of the NHL season now...LET'S GO PENS!!!

OK so since after everyone goes to bed is the best time for me to work on my homework I watched way too much curling. Still have no damn idea about that game.
