    This seems to be the least I’ve ever heard about it. Usually seems like there’s quite a buildup.

    Mixed-doubles curling is an embarrassment to our country. I hope Trump calls them out on his Sunday morning Twitter tirade.

    I can’t get into curling. Boring af.

    I probably need to play it first.

    I’d rather watch my dad flip through the program guide for 3 hours

    I actually like more of the winter sports than summer. I’ll probably catch some of it.

    I still hate the catering to the “Dancing with the Stars” and “American Idol” crowd

    Biatholon. Skiing and shooting a gun? Yes please.

    But seriously, I probably will not watch one second of it. I haven't watched the Olympics of any sort in 20 years. It just doesn't tickle my fancy.

    It was a fun thing to have on during parties. I had some fun times pounding beers watching and Phelps beat up on some farners.

    My Facebook feed sums it up. The people who are obsessed with the Olympics are all a bunch of mommys, and the telecasts are geared to them. Here’s so and so, he grew up in a 10 x 10 grass hut and bikes 23 miles to school every day, etc etc

    I’m obsessed with the Olympics, have a penis and no children.

    Can’t get much farther away from a mommy than that.

    I'm not sure why, but I'll always stop to watch curling, the one sport that looks incredibly fun. I nearly shit my pants just watching downhill skiing or, especially stuff like luge, which appears to be the same sled that Orson Welles used in Citizen Kane. Cannot watch figure skating. It's not a sport, it's a performance.
