Ski cross and board cross are probably the best spectator sport in any Olympics. It’s 6 people side by side through jumps and turns and is basically NASCAR on ice. There are no judges. It’s whoever crosses the line first.

I also still like downhill and super g because I like to ski fast and need to be reminded on occasion that I don’t actually know what fast is.

I watch CNBC most weekdays and have to say their ads for curling could be taken as self aware embarrassment. “Curling is what we’ve got” isn’t so much a tag line as it is dejected honesty.

It does apparently have a viewer base that rivals golf in terms of wealth though.
