In watching the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics, I began to wonder who among us would ever choose to be an athlete. Not many that test INTJ, I suppose. But if forced to pick a winter sport at gunpoint, but allowed to freely pick whichever winter sport you liked, which would you pick (assuming you would be equally talented at all equally)?
Curling? Bobsled? Figure skating? Ski shooting?
Me? Figure skating. Ladies singles or ice dancing. You?

No gunpoint required. Only one? Hmmmm, toss up between downhill skiing and curling, since I do both.

I have a problem with figure skating; I love it, but the commentators insist upon talking throughout the whole god damned routine as if it were a football game. It's not. It's an art performance. "Oh, here comes the tripe axle...and she got it!!!" Shut up and let us enjoy it.
It's the same level of annoyance that I experience when someone talks in a movie theater...

When I was 4 I honestly thought I'd be the next champion NHL goalie. It wasn't for a few more years that I realized women weren't accepted into the NHL (yes I know that one chick did but she hardly set a precedent for the rest of us).
So: Hockey!

I could ice skate before I could swim or ride a bike. :nice: So, curling, of course. :laugh:

Skier shooting! Oh, wait, you said ski shooting . . .
I'd pick biathlon. I don't like down hill skiing, but cross country has an appeal and I like to shoot.

Is there a winter sport that doesn't require a physical sense of balance?
I liked floor hockey as a kid, but if you put skates on my feet, it's over before it began.

Ski Shooting. I like to X-counrty and I am a champion shooter....also the Skeleton looks like a lot of fun.

Olympics?...
You mean World Hockey Tournament, with a few other 'sports' between games?

Ice Hockey! A bit odd, perhaps, for an INTJ, but I'm a huge team sports person. I played hockey for a very long time, and hope to resume as my ankle heals up.
Not the bob sled but the one where they go face first and it's looks like a little vehicle. It just looks awesome and you go like 90 mph

Hmm.. for the INTJ... Perfectionism, isolation, intuition...
Biathlon... Skeleton... Luge... Cross Country Skiing...
Of course, I'd go summer and play Soccer.

If I had to choose I guess I would pick Snowboarding, Skeleton, or Maybe Hockey.
