Curling with the uniforms of beach volleyball. Could be the highest watched winter sport.

Very well put. I still like biathlon best, because guns.  Skeleton would be second favorite, because danger level.

Biathlon needs to go back to the way the Fins did it in 1960.  7.62x54R Mosin Nagants.  



I think this is from the mid 70s though

Curling would be a whole lot cooler if instead of a rock sliding on ice it was a big fat house cat sliding across linoleum.  If that was the case I'd be an Olympic level athlete.

That was a weird game.  Ba Dexin threw two poor rocks and one abysmally bad rock in the 6th end that sealed it.
But Norway did what they had to do.

I started watching Norway-Canada last night and fell asleep.  No spoilers, please.

All from a single quarry on the island of Ailsa Craig off the coast of Scotland.  There are two kind of granite found there, green and blue.

The Ailsa Craig Common Green Granite is used for the body of the stone because its unique structure is more resistant to heat transfer, it copes better with condensation and does not splinter after contact with another stone in play, all of which badly affect Blue trefor curling stones.

The Blue Hone insert is fitted to the Ailsa Craig Common Green stone body, a technique we have perfected and called "Ailserts".

I mentioned to the wife that curling would be very interesting as a drinking game.

Chug a beer before you throw a stone.
Anytime two stones touch, everyone must do a shot.
If someone slips and falls, the whole team has to run a lap around the rink.

Authorities are exploring the possibilities that the positive test could be a result of sabotage.  The Russian's urine sample has significantly higher levels of meldonium than someone taking the drug should have.

My Daughter in Law is from El Salvador.
Last Olympics there was an HD very professional version of this.
She thought it was real, I told her that the cats were selected for their temperament and long fur so that the cold ice would not harm them.

Last night the CNBC announcer called the channel "Curling Nothing But Curling"



Great win for the US women yesterday.  They smoked China, and looked very precise.
I don't think the US men make the medal round, but the women still have a chance.

I'm looking forward to the gold medal women's hockey game (US vs. Canada)  They hate each other.
