Did you see that Curling last night!?! Swiss dropped a six burger in the last end of the new mixed competition.

USA had a one point lead and they drop a perfect end on em to finish 9-4

Curling is the perfect late night beer drinking TV watching while goofing around on the internet activity.

Man, I started watching curling last winter olympics. Never would have guessed in million years how exciting it is.
Looks stupid as shit, but it's nail biting exciting.

Short tracks for me is the top sports for the winter games. Might have something to do with Korea domination...

Does anyone else find snowboarding to be one of the most boring events in the Winter Olympics?

I don't doubt it is lots of fun to do, but I have zero desire to watch it.

Oddly reminds me of golf.... fun to play... but boring as death to watch.

I now have to semi invest in men's skeleton because it determines my fantasy football league's draft position(reverse order though, so last place skeleton finisher gets first choice).

Skiing and shooting is cool, well the shooting part anyway.

I used to love men's Hockey, I don't know what to expect with no NHL players allowed. If it just reverts back to what it was before the NHL players were allowed, I would be okay with that. Not as good as with the NHL but still competitive.

Curious about this as well. I get why the NHL isn't doing it though. Alot of extra travel, games, etc.

If there is anything more worthless than Ice Dancing, I'm not sure what it is.
