Poll question: Which do you prefer? summer or winter olympics?
im partial to the winter games myself, with all the speedskating, snowboarding and skiing, hockey, and bobsleading... i like swimming and track and field and all that, but i mean, i just like the winter games better.

5. but not often enough
Some of the full body suits in swimming are kinda hot too. Ian Thorpe in his latexy full body outfit is easy on the eyes. I'm ready for the diving so I can see me some speedos.

8. Summer, all the way...
Track and Field was my sport of choice for 10 years, so I have always had a special place in my heart for the summer games. Every 4 years, when the Olympics come around I watch as much as I can. I can pretty much watch any event, and I really do mean any, in the summer games. I am watching the best in the world, and I love the competition!

Jessica-a big Olympic junkie!
Who just bought The Olympic Series-Golden Moments 1920-2002 on dvd!
