Kind of combines the anticipation of waiting for a (injury-free) bobsled crash with the WTF audacity of figure skating attire, doesn’t it? And, as far as the relative appeal of the Winter Olympics goes, that can’t be a bad thing.

Okay, fine. I guess I don’t truly expect to see any Olympians being towed by locomotives at Sochi 2014. But, in all honesty, is that prospect really any more ridiculous than the the two-man luge?
