A world class SNG player could sustain a positive ROI in $10 SNG's without looking at his cards, provided his opponents didn't know he was doing it.

I think it would be awfully tough to do completely blind. If I was allowed to see when I was dealt JJ-AA I'd probably take a challenge to play the rest blind and come out ahead, but getting paid off at showdown with big hands is just so important in SnGs that it seems it would be awfully tough to win if that is taken away from you.

I don't care enough to try, that's for sure.

Fiction, because there are a lot of callingstations and you have to show the best hand more often.

Part of being a world class SNG player is knowing which players are calling stations and playing accordingly. I also remember reading an article about Fischman where he said he played with tape covering his cards, but that may have been MTT's, and who knows if he was actually winning while doing this.
