I am sad to say I am hardly an icon for other Canadian curlers to emulate. -_-

Watching the curling. What an odd sport.

Odd, yet compelling...

Curling is basically shuffleboard on ice, right?

Biathlon is easily my favorite event in winter sports. Cross country ski racing and rifle shooting. A fun combination. :)

Since it's basically a sport invented to train your male populace to make the Russian invaders pay, against all odds, when then try to crush your country, I rate it as the manliest sport there is.

There's obviously some similarities, but there is much more strategy, technique, athleticism, and sweeping in curling than shuffleboard.

Curling doesn't have near as much shuffling.
