I always thought curling would be a breeze until I tried it, shits way harder than it looks or gets credit for.

The snow on the Whistler is a total cluster fuck.. I'm surprised more people aren't getting seriously hurt.

While not all shots are full on take out hits, I'd doubt you could sweep full tilt with the intensity they do for 100ft and not be sucking wind, especially on take out hits when your running full tilt down a sheet of ice and sweeping with all your weight down.
I always thought curling would be a breeze until I tried it, shits way harder than it looks or gets credit for.

I was reading in the paper the other day that in many cases reporters poke fun at curling, then try it, and gain a lot of respect for how difficult it really is.

This is the first time Ive watched the olympics, sans michael phelps that i was forced to watch.
Some of this shit makes me wonder how is it an olympic sport. Other things make me wish i was more athletic. Im enjoying watching it alot, especially male figure skating

Man! So, during the game, I was by the torch, trying to take some pics... needless to say, there were a LOT of people there doing the same... most were Canadians... Someone announced the score when it was 2-3 (when USA went up), here are the things that I overheard while I was among the Canadians:
"Oh Good LORD! I'd rather lose to any other country, BUT NOT to the Americans!!"
"...ya know, their players are Canadians anyway... eh'..."
"...it's because the Americans have money... I mean... the got Gretzky to go to LA, what does that tell ya, eh'? "

trust me, I thought there'd be a riot tonight... and was all ready to take some pics! LOL... but it ain't over yet. If the Canadians don't get the gold, I kinda feel bad actually... it's their sport AND how often does the Winter Olympics come around to THEIR country??
