I’ll watch a little of the summer and winter olympics, but only for a little while. And even then I’ll watch only the ones that aren’t decided by judges (i.e. I’ll watch events where the winner is the first across the finish line, or does the highest high jump, or fastest time in the downhill, etc.).

Agreed on subjective sports.

The games have drifted so far from “Higher, faster, stronger,” that subjective events will soon overtake the stuff worth watching. Coming soon: Olympic beauty pageants; Tattoo competition; AGT events.

One of the turnoffs in years past was being treated 24/7 to the insufferables like bob costas.
