Having played the sport for three seasons I can say that, while not nearly as dangerous or thrilling as luge or skeleton, it is compelling and fun. And you can drink while you do it.

As a child, I used to watch the Olympics.. it seemed back in the 70's it meant something. I can't agree with you more, with your remarkably obvious facts. It's a lot like the Super Bowl... all hype and marketing.... except even the commercials suck. Now pass me another Pabst blue ribbon... here comes the Russian female curling team.
