I couldn't agree more, but I don't think many people would watch it if they did that. It'd be kind of like Gymnastics on ice then and if there's one thing I've noticed over the years it's that Gymnastics doesn't get nearly as much TV coverage as Figure Skating, even though I find it to be one of the most amazing sports around in terms of the strength, flexibility and coordination required.
