I am watching the Winter Olympics right now. On Friday, after we heard about the tragic death of the Georgian on the luge track, Dave and I were talking about how the Winter Olympic sports are way more dangerous than the Summer Olympic sports. There’s a chance of death in pretty much every Winter games sport. The Summer Olympics, you might just fall and break your leg on the track. Even in the wimpy Winter sports, like Figure Skating, there’s a chance your partner could slip and cut a main artery with his skate. The Winter games are much more hardcore if you ask me–not saying that the Summer game athletes are wimps, but I feel like I could at least try a lot of the Summer game sports without killing myself. I would be horrible at all of them, but I don’t think I would kill myself. There’s no way in hell I would attempt half of the Winter sports. 90 mph of a metal sled? Yeah, I don’t think so.
GO TEAM USA!
