Canada took revenge on our Men's Curling team for the US win over Canada in hockey last night. Hockey and Curling are Canada's two bigggest sports and the whole nation was stunned last night with the victory by the Yanks.
In the curling, our guys hung in there early, probably playing as good they have all week. After the break though, Canada was able to steal two ends when we missed a couple of high risk/high reward shots. Once Martin was up by three, he just put the death clamp on us by hitting most everything out. Unfortunately, I believe that eliminates the men from the playoffs, though they do have one game remaining tonight vs. China.
Hopefully, they can close out with a victory and the Women can throw the Hail Mary tomorrow.
Every Canadian I see I talk smack about the Hockey.....like I even know what hockey is??
My favorite line is to wish them good luck in the elimination game they have to play tomorrow because they lost to us.
USA.

How did most of the Olympic curlers get involved in curling? Did they start young? Is there competitive youth curling in parts of the U.S.?
