While I admit to being a diehard Olympics fan in general, but the winter games have always been my favorite by quite a large margin. Honestly I love every sport in the games (minus ice dancing, which it’s debatable as to whether that’s even a sport). I watch every event, listen to every Bob Costas segue and every Mary Carillo human interest piece.

Therefore, the only reason for this blog post is to say I’m cheering for my long lost cousin Steve Holcomb in the two man bobsled tomorrow and the four man later. It’s fun to hear announcers say “Holcomb this” and “Holcomb that.” The only other time I’ve heard my name on TV was that one brief moment where Kelly Holcomb won a game or two with the Buffalo Bills in the mid 2000s and then disappeared. After day one of the 2 man competition, Steve and teammate Curtis Tomasevicz are sitting in 4th place. They looked great in the second run, so here’s to tomorrow!
