re: US curling

Took the worse shot IMO, then fricked it up royally. How is it that I'm this pissed about curling?!

I'm sick to my stomach this is absolutely unfrickinacceptable. This is the damn Olympics and not only do you choke once, which is bad enough, but THREE fricking times????

I'm starting a curling team and we're gonna beat the shite out of Shuster's team and go to the Olympics in 2014. Could do way better than these choke artists. I know some of ya'll are down.

The guy set himself up for it. During the match, the commentators were talking about an interview he had before the competition where he said that he loves the pressure and wants to be the one taking the last shot, or something to that effect.

I know. That stuff seems lame but it's addicting as hell. And aggravating when the screw up.

So the men are back on the ice this morning against Denmark. In theory, this is a winnable game, but we have this guy:



I'm not even going to bother watching this debacle.

but we have this guy:

Saw him give whoever we played first (Germany was it?) a 3 point swing in their favor in the 7th and 8th and lost any faith in him winning a damn thing for us.

Were these guys the best we had? Or just the only US guys left that knew the game?

eta: Alright! They have a bigger choker!

I never thought there'd be such an uproar about curling... but Shuster needs to GTFO.

For those interested, you can watch the men's curling match live online at nbcolympics.com with no commentary.

I'm addicted.

Go USA!!
