I'm not sure why this would be surprising. I find curling to be boring. Its just not my thing I suppose. The Winter Olympics has much more action than the Summer Olympics. I don't care for the luge or bobsledding, but if its on, I'll just leave it on. I've been trying to watch as much hockey as possible, and I enjoy seeing many of the other sports. Just not curling. I don't watch people shoot pool or bowling on TV either. Not my thing.
