Whew, Canada won gold in men's curling. We might not to be able to get a goal past a bunch of perfume-wearing European male hoggy players, but give us Canadian men a broom and we know what to do!
Now these are athletes:
Is it me or is the second guy from the left Joe Flaherty? This has to be the only Olympic sport where men with pot bellies can win gold. |

For some reason, he reminds me of an ice cream cone. |

Nobody's better at knocking rocks together with a broom. |

It��s not any dumber than hitting a ball with a wooden stick or sliding downhill with a plank under each foot. |

America got only a bronze. Looks like some sweeping changes will have to be made. |

That is ridiculous. Hitting a ball moving at 90mph cannot be compared with sliding a stone across ice at another, stationary stone. But if you literally meant "hitting a ball with a wooden stick" and were not referring to baseball but to the act of beating up on a stationary ball with a stick, then yeah, you're right. |

I think all the europeans on the board can agree that baseball along with golf is the stupidest and most inane sport on the globe. Baseball sucks and everyone knows it. |

Correct that, it is the only Winter Olympic sport.
Baseball is in the summer, and you can have a great pot belly and still win gold. But, they are getting rid of baseball from the olympics. |

Yeah, there's no more baseball in the summer games. Although I think you can be fatter and in less shape for curling than for baseball. If they introduce bowling into the games, well, I think Olympic bowling would trump curling. There was also talk, for a while, of introducing bridge (as in the card game) to the Olympics. That's just damn scary. It's worse than Olympic ballroom dancing. |

Ouch, that's gonna leave a mark.
And as for golf... say- where does that come from again? |

Yeah cricket sucks too, if a game goes on for 3 days between Pakistan and India with a score of 299-301 and yet there is not one single dead body, or riot, or small nuclear detontation I'm not interested.
I never thought I'd say this, but after watching "Green Street" football is where its at. |
