Hockey is the only one I actually care about, but I'll watch any of them except figure skating (and I've even watched a little of that this year, I understand why people watch it, I just don't like "judged" athletics....it's not sport damn it.).

Timed events are more boring than proper races too.  Just sayin'.  Not much space for passing on the bobsled track though.

These are all really cool sports, but the only one I really know anything about, and therefore the only one I care to check up on, is hockey. I don't know why, but I can't get excited about this olympics. It might be because the US broadcast is super delayed, maybe I need to be told what to get excited about. Idk.

I think your enthusiasm for the Winter Olympics is limited because you Americans aren't as successful as at the Summer Olympics. Ice hockey is one of the four US national sports, at which only North Americans shine; that's probably why it's the only sport among those listed above that appeals to you.

Figure skating is the thing I watch and follow the most.  I also enjoying the snowboarding and alpine skiing, especially this year.  Mikhaela Shiffrin is neat to follow and I'm hoping she can get another medal.  Somehow I've missed the freestyle skiing so far but I will try to catch some of it.
