Are you lot watching the OG? Sweden is pretty successful and I have a suggestion. I can report "our" medals and in a very unbiased way ignore all Norse skiers.

Red can tell us all about his favorite sport, figure skating

I am still waiting for the track and field to start.

Not sure if New Zealand has a team at this one, skiing isn't really our thing unless you can do it sitting down.

NZ won a gold medal in freestyle skiing

You also have a young and talented Biathlete from NZ, Campbell Wright. Biathlon is usually a very European thing and especially a Norwegian thing. I begin to think the Norse are born with skis on

Not sure I can get into this winter Olympics thing, so far all I have seen is guys in tights and women with guns both of which scare your average Kiwi.

You should take a closer look at some of the female biathletes. My personal favorite is Dorothea Wierer (Italy), but Tiril Eckhoff (Norway) and Lisa Theresa Hauser(Austria) are interesting when they are wearing tights.

I prefer the winter games, but I am from a winter country.

There is one thing about the whole Olympic Games thing. A lot of countries want to arrange these games with a huge cost of create arenas, facilities for the athletes, their support staff, and the media. Is it really worth it? Why not having a few sites around the world for the summer games and for the winter games. All participating countries can contribute to having these sites maintained instead of getting new sites around the world.

Much like the summer Olympics to offset the cost I think countries should be given consecutive games.

That must be easy when you are driving on the wrong side of the road.
