同 short track speed skating 同花式流冰嘅選手來比，curling 呢班實在太唔掂。人地 speed skating 同花式流冰果啲選手就真係睇得出佢有幾熱愛個運動（特別係 speed skating 果班靚妹）。有熱誠先至能夠感動到觀眾同得到佢地嘅支持㗎嘛。

但阿力亦唔明，點解 curling 呢幾個咁唔識做？響國家隊裡面，你一唔聽話，教練、運動總監、同阿爺都一定會收你皮，咁你個運動員就聽返鄉下食穀種囉。

Winning medals to satisfy superficial national pride is the ONLY goal of olympics.

As peter236 said, otherwise, why would you invest millions of dollars on SOMEBODY else for their "enjoyment"?

Being the type of cynical person you are, I wouldn't have expected you to look at it in any other way. But I think our very own Olympic medalist Clara Hughes sums it up best here:

"I don't focus on my personal medal count," she told reporters. "I don't focus on the team's medal count. I look at the human performance...  I think that these Olympics, and how excited Canadians are right now about being Canadian and celebrating excellence, I think that shows that there is some value to sport and I don't think that value lies in an overall medal count."
