personally, I think it is hard to move past the shadow of the Luge guy who was killed by the course they set.
Yes, its a dangerous sport and everyone who does it know's the risk. But if you can afford a multi million dollar opening ceremony I think people feel like maybe you should be able to afford some crash barriers and padding on concrete struts on the fastest luge course ever built. I dont know enough about the sport to know if that really would have saved the guys life,but I think thats how people will feel.
Other than that,just reall want the American girl who fell over showing off on the last jump of the snowboard race last time out to take a gold this time. (Lindsey something?)...
I think an English Gold is too much to hope for, although I think there is a chance in the womens skeleton bobsleigh.
