100 Channels, Nothing to Watch on TV

It sure would be nice to have more coverage of snow sports on TV. Instead, we've got guys carrying spades and boulders.

I can't get out to the hill this weekend, so I've been doing some fiddling on the computer and at the same time making use of the TV remote. And I've been very disappointed.

It's cold, it's winter, the Olympics are coming up: in short, it's time to watch some mountain activity, or better yet, participate in it.

But when I flip through the TV looking for sports, I find no satisfaction: basketball (too much apathy on my part), hockey (the puck's too small to watch), bowling (I haven't bowled a frame in 10 years), poker (that's a sport?), golf (a fine activity, but I'm not much interested once the lifts start going), rodeo (I suppose some people like it), motocross (I've got zero interest), and some guys carrying boulders around. Rocks!

Someone? Anyone? Halfpipe competitions? Ski races? Even up-close-and-personal profiles of competitors would be better.

Oh yeah, the NFL has a few games, but if history holds, the teams I want to see advance will get knocked out.
