OK please explain how the Luge is a sport.

[undeterred]

Can't anyone lie on their back and shift their weight around?

1. It's simple.

Go really fast, don't die. Win!

[Paulie]

2. Skeleton is much more scary!

[valerief]

3. The Luge is a sport the same way Paris Hilton is a talent. nt

[OffWithTheirHeads]

4. Rachael Maddow explained how it started.

"Here, hold my beer and watch this!"

[ScreamingMeemie]

5. Because zoom...

[Hoyt]

6. Agree. Ice NASCAR.

[TheMightyFavog]

7. That's an unfair comparison.

The lugers/skeletoners/bobsledders are turning right as well as left!

[Hoyt]

9. Good point, and they are in much better shape. :)

[TheMightyFavog]

10. And BMW designed the bobsled this year.

NASCAR wouldn't allow such a highfallutin' Kraut car in their series ever.

[Hoyt]

11. You're killin me, and NASCAR.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

14. NASCAR Coach Reveals Winning Strategy: Drive Fast

8. Althought I liked the team relay.

Though, team USA can't be happy. Erin Hamlin absolutely dominated the course only to have both the guys in the men's single and double legs screw her out of a medal.

[Sherman A1]

12. The same way that

baseball, basketball, hockey, ice dancing, football and any other sport "is a sport".

[jakeXT]

13. Warm up is difficult

15. You just described GD

[KamaAina]

16. OK please explain how fast you can slide down a slick track

while keeping the sled under control. Oh yes, in two-man, while someone is lying on top of you.
