Posting on FR, but look for that to change.
I can't stand what the Olympics have become. Haven't watched it in years. If you can't time it or score it objectively, it shouldn't be in the Olympics.

I would toss out half-pipe for this reason - but snowboardcross might be worthy, since it's actually a race, and it was demonstrated objectively that hot-dogging can cause you to lose a gold medal.
I'm holding out hope that I could still make the Olympics - in curling. I've never done it, but I gotta believe that I can slide a rock, sweep a broom, and drink beer with the best of them...but to paraphrase Marx: "No sport should be in the Olympics that could have me as a participant."
