I know, right? Who wants to see stuff where people compete based on time or other tangible factors. I'd much rather see a panel of judges score the participants arbitrarily. Basically, if it's not a race or curling, it's a waste of time. Which is like 80% of the Winter games. That's really not that much different from the Summer Games. Basketball, Softball, Swimming, Track and Field, Boxing, Tennis, Volleyball, etc. There are far more games that fit TT's description in the summer games. Seriously!?! The only judged events in the winter olympics are figure skating, freestyle skiing, and snowboarding, everything else is time or point based. The summer olympics have gymnastics, diving, and synchronized swimming as judged events with the others being point/time based. Its pretty much the same. Given that, I'd rather watch people wipeout while going a bajillion miles an hour down a mountain or on a bobsled WAY more than watch people run in circles, swim laps, throw javelins, row a boat, etc. There are also far fewer events in the winter games. To each his own, though.
