The "winter olympics are crap" thread
If you aren't the fastest, highest, longest or strongest it IS NOT A SPORT
Figure skating as a sport - dont make me laugh.

I dont see why you say that. Figure skaters are as fitter than any footballer I can think of.
Its a physical, skillful and sometimes very painful game to be in.
I would say its more of a sport than say darts for example.

The UK's only figure skaters in the Olympics are....
....brother & sister.
Guess it's not that wierd, but when I first saw this, it seemed a tad odd. I imagine because 'dance' is a couples thing - so you're kind of looking for some romantic/sexual connection.
Maybe it's just me....

I just wish they would stop all that skating around interrupting the fight.
