I watch curling during the Olympics, just to laugh at how silly the sweepers look. Same with Australian rules football, the referees in their tuxedos signaling scores is comedy.

Sports radio WEEI here in Boston had a show that constantly bashed curling. A local curling team invited them to participate in a little exhibition. One taker showed up and he couldn't stay on his feet. The show were good sports about it and put the exhibition up on youtube. Hilarious ... not as easy as the players make it look.
I'm not a fan of Rudulph but I like what Vic said. Other than the Derby and local Suffolk Downs replay radio, I remember the days there were no live broadcasts or simulcasting. Sad to see the attrition going on, but feel blessed we have an ample broadcast product.
BTW, Romo sucks.
