I lost interest when they added ribbon twirling in tights as an Olympic event.

If I get a chance to watch track and field or basketball, I will.

If it can’t be measured, clocked, or tallied, it isn’t a sport. It might be tough to do, but a judge panel on ribbon twirling is ridiculous.

For me it was when they let the professionals in. I just gradually lost interest.

I do try to watch the insane downhillers during the winter games. Crazy people!

The volleyball tournament is pretty cool too.
