Olympic Opt Out

Posted by Joan Reeves on Mar 1, 2010 in Pop Culture, This Writer's Life |

I’ll be honest. I didn’t watch the Olympics.

No, wait. That’s not precisely true. I wanted to see some of the ice dancing and figure skating so I sat up one night and caught about a half hour of that. Loved the duo that ice danced to Phantom of the Opera music, and Joannie Rochette, who’d lost her mother just days before, touched my heart.

The rest though wasn’t even a blip on my radar. I couldn’t get interested enough to stay up late or set the DVR. One night, I tuned in NBC and Curling was being televised. Sorry, but I just don’t get Curling. Watching the grass grow is about as interesting. It seemed way too much time was devoted to this sport.

Takeaway Truth

Is it me or is it the Olympics? They just don’t seem as compelling as they once were.
