I've never been to an Olympiad but maybe I'll get lucky and get to go to this one. I'm sure the Olympics are a thousand times better in person mainly because one wouldn't have to listen to Bob Costas drone on and on and on and on.

Screw the summer games, let's skip to Vancouver right now!
After seeing these cool ass mascots, I'm ready for the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics!

You can sell anything with a great mascot.
If the Bush presidency had an adequate mascot, Evil Spock might have bought that malarkey too.
WTF? What's with the Asian-sounding mascots at a Canadian Olympics? Is it because Vancouver is a common destination for Chinese immigrants? I'm confused. Why don't they have a bottle of Moosehead, a big iceberg, and maybe a smiley-faced hockey puck for their mascots? It's Canada, after all.
Sumi looks like our weed connection.
i agree.... the summer olympics bore me. well except for the whole hot young men in speedos and hot young male gymnasts part. :)
Sumi!
You might even be able to watch an entire event! Remember in the old days when they didn't bounce you around with little bites of footage and you could actually see an entire competition? Not just the US team and the gold medalist?
Go to this page and move your mouse pointer over the mascots. It's good for hours of wholesome family entertainment.

Winter camel-toe in the worst kind - all that snowmobile suit bunched up in there, yuck.
You should come to the Vancouver Olympics! Just imagine all the money you could spend.
Evil Spock-Thank goodness Bush was too dumb to have a mascot.
Dguz-Those are actually aboriginal names and don't worry there will be plenty of Moosehead seen on TV during the games.
Randal-Ok.
Barbie-I feel the same way about the gals in those skin tight speed skating outfits and the chick skiers with the long blonde hair and every female member of the Swedish team.
Missy-Sumi rocks!
Ed-Those were the golden days of the Olympic coverage. I hate all that rah rah USA crap NBC does all the time, it's as if the rest of the athletes don't matter. Thanks for that great link by the way.
Barb-I was thinking more of the female speed skaters. And maybe a lady curler or two.
i should do a post about my trip to the Lillehammer Olympics in 1994
those are great logos....
If I have to listen to Dick Button cover ice skating one more time, I'll shoot myself. I will.
I'm a little confused about the Japanese-style mascots as well...but they're cute, so...whatever?
