  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

What's your favorite sport in the winter olympics?

My favorites are the sliding sports (luge, bobsleigh, skeleton) and the alpine events.

If they could do all of the figure skating events in one or two nights, then be done with them, I'd be happy.

How about you?

Coming from Norway, skiing is certainly very popular and ingrained in the culture; ski as we know it is from Scandinavia, so it makes sense. Living in Japan, figure skating is very popular, and my wife likes it a lot. I think I agree with the OP, however. Bobsleigh and snowboard are fun to watch.

Most of all though, I like our team's curling trousers:
Norway's curlers and their incredible Winter Olympic trousers – ranked

Figure skating here, but I also love watching snowboarding and free style skiing. All of those have acrobatic elements to them. Which is why in the Summer Olympics, my favorite sports to watch are gymnastics and diving.
