    By the way one of the most inspirational Winter Olympics movies I have ever seen is Cool Running about the Jamaica Bob Sled Team. Their never give up spirit was truly motivating.

    You may get to see it again. American and Canadian coaches have trained up a Nigerian team.

    Three Nigerian-American women are making history -- and their Olympic dreams come true -- by being the first ever African bobsled team to qualify for the Olympics.

    The team will also be the first Nigerian athletes to compete at a Winter Olympics, when they appear at the PyeongChang games, which begin February 9.


    Seun Adigun, Ngozi Onwumere and Akuoma Omeoga are the force behind the team, which officially qualified for the games in November last year.






    "When people see us, they're like 'oh you guys are all the same!' We get along so well, but between the three of us there's so much versatility," Omeoga told CNN.


    Adigun, the driver and founder of the team, describes herself as the critical, analytical one, whereas Omwumere is more laid back, and Omeoga meets them in the middle.


    But they all have one thing in common: they are all former track and field stars.

    All I know of this Olympics so far is that Mike Pence is hated by the left and the right because the gays hate him for supporting conversion therapy and the right is not fond of him sitting near NK's dictator's sister.
