I hate to admit it, but I'm kinda digging curling.

USA Women vs Japan, match halfway done, USA 5-4

Yup.

If not for USA's leader/closer, they'd be up about 8-2 right now.

And thanks to NBC's great coverage, you just posted a spoiler.

correction, its tied 4-4.

I kinda like the end of the 5th end, 2 rocks left when I turned it on, USA was up 4-1 but Japan had 5 rocks in scoring position, I was thinking "holy crap, how did they screw it up so bad!"

Apparently they thought the same thing, called one of their 2 1-minute time outs, the USA coach came down and told them what to do (limit the damage, they can cut three of Japan's stones off from scoring position). Placed it perfectly, Japan couldnt even knock it out, so they had to settle with just tossing one more into scoring position to score 3 instead of 5.

6th end, USA has 2 in scoring position, 4 rocks left

2 rocks left, USA has the hammer and still has 2 in scoring position

interesting, USA has an easy 2, but is going for a risky shot to get 3

That was ****ing reeruned.

You're gauranteed to sleep with one of either Courtney Love or Jessica Simpson and you choose Courtney Love.

USA gets 2 in the 6th end. Japan will have the hammer in the 7th end. USA 6-4

alnorth 02-16-2010 05:52 PM

what the hell was the point of that? USA just threw away a stone

alnorth 02-16-2010 05:55 PM

7th end, 6 rocks left, Japan +1

4 rocks left, Japan +1

bad shot for USA, good shot for Japan. 2 rocks left, Japan +3

Japan scores 3. End of the 7th end, Japan 7-6, USA has the hammer in the 8th end.

This last chick for the Americans is sucking balls.

It boggles my mind that sports can even have 'spoilers' in this day and age... It's a sporting event, not the end of 'Empire Strikes Back'. Come on NBC, get it together and give it to ABC.

Trying to watch a bit on nbcolympics.com, but that site is brutal. I can't get a live feed for anything.

alnorth 02-16-2010 06:09 PM

8th end

6 rocks left, USA +1

4 rocks left, USA +1

USA doesnt seem to be playing this end very well

This could be a disaster. USA is putting themselves in a position where they might have to make a tough shot to score 1, or if they miss Japan could score without the hammer.

2 rocks left, USA +1

USA is forced to settle for 1 point, tied 7-7, Japan has the hammer in the 9th end.
