One of my favorite things about theOlympicsis that it puts otherwise niche sports in the spotlight, and for two glorious weeks, we all focus on and talk about stuff like ski jumping, biathlon, and curling.
However, Indiana Fever starSophie Cunninghamisn't huge on the latter.
Cunningham and her co-host, West Wilson, talked a bit about the Olympics in the latest episode of their podcast,Show Me Something.

It started with Wilson referencing a tweet he saw about how the Winter Olympics "introduces two new sports that could leave you literally paralyzed at any moment. Meanwhile, the Summer Olympics just introduces jazz breakdancing."
I've noticed that too. Every four years, I watch downhill skiing or skeleton or something, and I think to myself, "This is too dangerous; someone should put a stop to this."
This was one of the reasons Wilson said he believes the Winter Olympics are 10-times better than their summer-time counterpart.
This led to a discussion of the Canadian cheating scandal during a curling match against Sweden, and that led Cunningham to wonder what makes curling an Olympic sport.
"I'm just wondering what like like what makes what makes it a sport or a hobby?" she asked. "Like, I'm actually being very curious."
