I still don't understand the Biathlon
Biathalon is doing something extremely aerobic, while mixing in intervals of great precision where you want your breath and heartbeat to be as calm as possible. It's very hard to shoot accurately while your heart is pumping a mile a minute.
I fully acknowledge that I'd rather watch the subjective stuff (skating, ski jumping, diving, whatev) -- races of whatever format are only so interesting.
Noooo, not the pretty horsies!
Dancing is athletic. Haven't Dancing with the Stars and Skating with Celebreties taught you anything!?
Yeah, they've taught me that I'm happier watching Animal Planet.
Biathalon cracks me up -- so practical!
"It's skeet shooting, you idiot, not ski-- Oh, what's the use?"
If ice dancing goes then so should equestrians!
Absolutely. Next thing you know, they'll be trying to add Formula 1 as an Olympic sport.
I also bitter that baseball and softball got dropped for 2012.
"It's skeet shooting, you idiot, not ski-- Oh, what's the use?"
Hee! I was actually thinking more Finnish Army of Yore.
I also appreciate the argument that there shouldn't be team sports. Well, nothing bigger team-wise than a bobsled.

Jesse is me. I like the creative element of the more subjective sports. Races all become about tenths and hundreds of seconds and you can't see them.
Does it mess with your work plans?
A little. I need to be setting up by noon and will now be arriving at 9:30ish. That doesn't leave a lot of time for transport from airport to conference. And with a morning arrival, we probably will not have rooms to put our bags in or to clean up. ION, MY OWN BED TONIGHT.
Absolutely. Next thing you know, they'll be trying to add Formula 1 as an Olympic sport.

If you can ride horses you should be able to ride cars too.
