XX Olympic Winter Games

[Alex]

I'm not a big fan of judged sports but some of them are fun to watch and if the participants are willing to subject themselves to subjective evaluation who am I to complain.

When it comes to the Winter Olympics the judged sports are actually more entertaining to me than the objectively measures sports which mostly are in the form of finding a different way to fall down a mountain.

Let's go down the mountain on two long sticks! Let's go down on a single board! Let's go down on a sled headfirst! Let's go down on a sled feet first! Let's go down two at a time, no let's go four at a time! Let's take the sled and curl the rails! Now let's do it on a sled with no rail! Let's go down the mountain on a sheet of cardboard! Hey! What about inner tubes, those can go downhill as well! I once went down a mountain in a canoe made out of Dixie cups, it was gnarly!

I don't know, it is hard to get too excited about gravity as a sport.
