My 18-year old's observation on the Winter Games
"The Summer Games seem to be more about strength and athleticism to win. The Winter Games seem to be more about how badly you are willing to risk being horribly injured to win."
After thinking about it for awhile, I can't really argue with that analysis. In fact, I think it displays a wisdom well beyond his years. My wife is sick of hearing me say out loud "these people are nucking futs!" while watching the games. Given the brittleness of my bones and my sense of balance, any number of these sports would result in Evel Knievel-scale injuries if I were to attempt them.
