Tired of those skating pansies, and their controversies?  I sure as hell am.  Enter:  curling.  

This is where the real men come out to play.  No judges, no pageantry...just man verses stone.  To read more about this incredible olympic event, here is the main page for Curling:

Now the people to curl for fun... they generally have a flask on the handle of the broom. So when they get cold, they can warm up with a quick nip.

Now if they would allow that at the Olympics... big party curling and hurling!!

To my infinite disgrace, I actually watched a bit of the women’s curling yesterday.  I’d probably have watched more if I’d had any clue what the rules were.

Seems to me that the team members that brush, scrub, or whatever they’re doing, in front of the moving stone are somehow cheating!  Imagine if you tried that in golf.

I was into curling way before it was cool.
