Did someone say twizzle?

The Cookie Monster and the Scottish Cowgirl began a debate at yesterday's BaconFest 2K6 about whether ice dancing could be considered a sport. I'm not going to re-hash it for you here, but after tonight's free skate, I think that the Olympics would be a far less interesting place without it. Barely-there costumes, bizzare headgear, music from Les Miserables and The Phantom of the Opera, Cirque du Soleil-esque contortions performed in motion on ice. Torvill & Dean it's not.
