Default XC is more popular than alpine?

Check it out (what sports NBC veiwers want covered). As of today nordic
skiing is more popular than alpine!

Perhaps nordic skiers are better at clicking the "vote" button multiple
times.

I suppose to make sense of those numbers we would have to see
demographic statistics. We can't forget, NBC Olympic coverage is not
about sports (sports is just the context) - it is about sponsorships
and marketing. As XC skiers, we are just not the target audience.

Looks like the curling and hockey guys are even more crazed clickers! We
had an early lead though!
