Best Olympic Winner Ever

Vancouver 2010 – Athletes, results, Medals, Winners and Games

The Vancouver city will host the 2010 Olympics, Winter Olympics to be more precise; a bunch of winter games will get tackled, mainly based on snow and ice, starting from Alpine Skiing, Biathlon, Bobsleigh, cross country ski, curling, figure skating, freestyle skiing, Ice Hockey, Luge, Nordic combined, short track, skeleton, ski jumping, snowboard and speed skating.

As athletes from all over the world, each being a winner in its own nation or continent, the Vancouver 2010 Olympics will be brought to live TV channels through the opening ceremony on the 12th of February, a ceremonial manifestation that will be watched, on live TV and via online sports live streaming websites, for the purpose of insuring the widest coverage of sports, being hosted by the Vancouver winter Olympics.

Despite concerns about protestors, recalling for saving money in favor of fighting poverty and homeless people, while others are expected to call for anti-globalization during the next few hours; nevertheless, another type of concerns arises lately, due to the climate changes and the global warming issues. Moreover, the lack of snow around the Olympics area is a serious threat for the games’ success in Canada, knowing that the majority of these Olympic Games are hosted on natural snow. If things were up to summer Olympics and gymnastics, snow wouldn’t be a threat; but in the Vancouver2010 Olympics case, the lack of snow is a serious issue, especially that snow and storms are striking the unusual side of the continent…

The main attraction, in my opinion, will be set onto the ice hockey games, where NHL teams, mainly based in Canada and USA will be faced in a nation’s duel in which the ice hockey players of each nation will be fighting over every hockey puck and for every hockey goal… furthermore, nations like Russia, Sweden and other hockey jerseys will not be easy competitors against the Canada hockey team and the team USA hockey jerseys, knowing that players like Ovechkin are here to win and grab the gold medal.

The bobsleigh and speed skating are also thrilling competitions for they are hosted in Olympics stadiums, in front of thousands of spectators, not to mention the fact that similar competitions are too fast too furious and full of thrill, adrenaline and anticipation. Ski jumping will definitely carry the best of video shooting with astonishing scene sites as the athletes jump over the cliff in an attempt to break the competition record, and why not, try to set new world records here in Vancouver 2010.
