It seems to me that the Olympics has turned from a great way of competing against others, to a new soap opera. There has been so many stories about the weirdest things that normally are not in the olympics, and stories about people crying and moaning about not getting their way.
We first had the terrible news of the luger who died. Now a story is being run about the pregnant Canadian curler. Kristie Moore, 30, is currently 5 1/2 months pregnant and participating in the Olympics. Moore states that the pregnancy does not affect her during competition. She found out about her pregnancy only weeks before she found out that Canada asked her to join as an alternate. The team has been supportive of her pregnancy the entire time. The only way Moore sees action during the Olympics is if there is some problem with one of the current four contenders. Canada is currently the gold medal favorite in the curling event.
Second, Norway’s crazy golf pants during the curling event. They bought these golf pants online, and just had fun with them.

Third, Ryan Miller, member of the US hockey team, may not be able to wear a tribute helmet to his namesake. There is a saying on there that says “Miller Time” and it may be mistaken for a beer advertisement. The Olympic logos also maybe too close to the current logos, and could be said as advertising. International Olympic Committee were currently disputing the helmet. The one part that Miller wants to keep is his tribute to his late cousin, that says “Matt Man.”
