2/19/10: Vancouver 2010

By Jennifer Napier-Pearce

Salt Lake City, Utah – A malfunctioning cauldron. Soggy weather that's delayed races and forced officials to truck in tons of snow. And a deadly crash on the world's fastest luge run. Vancouver's Winter Games has been dealing with its share of heartache and headaches, but how does it match up with previous Olympics? Join guest host Jennifer Napier-Pearce and others for an update from Vancouver and a look why the Olympics still captivate viewers the world over.
