True, even though I was quite impressed with China. Any country that can throw 6 rocks on the same line and end up with the same result each time, shows they're either excellent curlers, robots or they can't read the ice and just found their grove.

Either way, Canada played the shits and they'd better figure out how to force teams, especially the Chinese, out of their one line one shot game plan or it could be a long Tournament for Ms Jones.

The Chinese have a population poll of over one billion. They're more than likely to be dominating in more and more sports.

Never hockey though...

Hey, the Japanese were pretty competitive in 1998 (much better than their hockey teams), even after only picking up the sport a year or so before they held the Olympics. This is good, now we won't underestimate them in the finals.

The Scotts owened curling for a very long time and it was only through a great deal of work that Canada was able to best them.
This is on par with a coffee and donut store called Uncle Hs.

but can they drink 2 liters of rye whiskey and beat canada at curling

[ridenrain]

That's why the scotts invented the sweepers. So the rest of you're team wouldn't be too hosed to throw.

Extinguish the flame!

Who cares!!! Curling is for those that cant skate....

[inquiksilver]

I'm sorry but watching curling is like watching paint dry. Can it really be considered a sport, rather than a leisure activity?

I bet the Chinese team is made up of all Vancouverites anyways...
