I Do NOT Enjoy Watching Gymnastics
Advertisements [?]
Maybe it's because women's gymnastics competitors are children who all weigh less than 100 lbs and men's (which, surprisingly interests me more than women's) are adults. Or maybe it's because of the incredibly subjective scoring. It just IRRITATES me. I have to change channels whenever it comes on.

Same thing with ice skating in the Winter Olympics.

Me... I prefer races and competitive games where the scoring is absolute... if you win, you win, period (except of course in matters of questionable disqualifications and non-disqualifications).

Who's with me on this?
