    Black puck on white ice... how hard can that be?

    Yeah, you would think so, wouldn't you? But for the most part, I just see some buffed guys skating around the ice, waving their clubs around occasionally and then when someone actually scores, I'm like "hey, what the fuck just happened there?". It's fun when they fight, though.
    I am extremely serious.

    Hockey is more than just following the puck... it's following the play.

    Good lord... that's always the case with non-hockey fans.

    Indeed! A lot of great NHLers have come from that country and they are going to be incredibly strong in the Olympics as they defend their Gold Medal win from 2006.

    I like the fights too, as a hockey fan!

    I generally love the quick pace of hockey, but alas, our local TV stopped broadcasting NHL after the contract ended last season. My favorite team won though!

    I've only seen ice hockey once - and it was live, back abroad in Canada. I didn't know that fighting was part of the game, so when they begun the first fight, I was like, what the puck!

    Baseball is also very popular in Japan, Dominican Republic, and other countries. American football I'll agree is pretty much
    US only.

    I'm sure nobody watches cross-country skiing here, but man, that Lukas Bauer seems like an übermensch. I just saw him win the 15 km classical without problems, just a week after he won the whole Tour de Ski. I wonder if anyone will be able to even give him competition in the Olympics.

  23. It's being shown on one of the main channels in the UK - at a reasonable time (starts at 11.30pm). I'll certainly watch the beginning. How long I last depends on events unfolding (including frequency of commercial breaks.)

    For the first time in history, they are showing the Super Bowl live on Norwegian TV (which means it will be nighttime TV). Not that I'm going to sit up for it anyway, as I have no interest in American Football, but it's interesting that it's allowed that much exposure on national TV.
    I am extremely serious.

    Sports in America which Erik will back me up on is dependent on markets. Records were broken as an example when the Yankees/Phillies played in the World Series this year. When Tampa Bay played Boston the ratings were down. The NFL is so strong that even two weak markets such as Indianapolis and New Orleans don't matter and there is a huge interest anyway.

    Yes The Who and the commercials will be a point of interest to many but this is the equivalent of the World Cup final to America.
