Since there's no curling option, I have to go with ice hockey.

I would still like to try the luge or bobsled sometime. Both of those look really fun. I think hockey is the most fun to watch now that the Soviet Union is gone.

You couldn't pay me enough to go ski jumping. Those athletes have my utmost respect and admiration.

I draw the line at going headfirst instead of feet first. There's insane and then there is going headfirst at high speeds with little ability to brake or change direction. Even insane people think skeleton riders are crazy.

Should differentiate short track speed skating, which is by far my favorite.

Also, if you do a drinking game with curling, drinking every time they say something that sounds like a sexual innuendo, it becomes more interesting, I am told.

No. The Canadians define "harsh interrogation methods" as making the guards watch The Curling Channel until the guards are ready to "go postal, eh?" Then the interrogations begin. Generally, the Canadians get actionable intelligence. Occasionally, they have to announce that the prisoner "fell down the steps, eh?" There was a huge scandal in 1998 when an American journalist wrote an article documenting that the Canadian maximum security prison is a one story building with no basement and no stairs. The scandal died down after this journalist was found dead with his toque stuffed in his mouth ..... "at the bottom of a stairway, eh?."
