6th end, Norway leads 2-1, USA with the hammer

8 rocks left, USA +1

Bad shot by Norway

6 rocks left, USA +1

not sure what USA is doing here

4 rocks left, Norway +1

2 rocks left, USA +1

I dont think USA has a chance at scoring more than 1

No score, Norway leads 2-1 after 6 ends

7th end, Norway leads 2-1, USA with the hammer

10 rocks left, USA +1

8 rocks left, USA +1

6 rocks left, USA +1

4 rocks left, Norway +1 or USA +1 or USA +2, I cant tell

Norway is in a tough spot, if they arent careful, USA could score a lot here

Norway decided to make sure to not let USA score more than 2

2 rocks left, USA +2

1 rock left, This is going to be close, not sure if USA will have +1 or +2 at the end of this

USA scores 2!

USA leads 3-2 after 7 ends

Our flaming gay figure skater did halfway decent and might be able to fight for a bronze, our world champion is a close 2nd and will go for gold on Thursday, our USA champion completely bombed out with a choke-tacular performance.

8th end, USA leads 3-2, Norway with the hammer

8 rocks left, Norway +1

6 rocks left, Norway +2

Fantastic shot by USA, its going to be really hard for Norway to do much

4 rocks left, Norway +1

Another good defensive shot by USA to try to limit Norway to 1 point

2 rocks left, Norway +1

1 rock left, USA +1, another must-make shot coming for Norway

Damn, Norway pulled out a pretty clever shot to score 2

Norway leads 4-3 after 8 ends

9th end, Norway leads 4-3, USA with the hammer

12 rocks left, USA +1

10 rocks left, USA +1

8 rocks left, USA +2

USA really needs at least 2 points in this end if they want a chance to win

6 rocks left, USA +2

really bad shot by Norway, big opportunity here

5 rocks left, USA +2

USA calls a time out to study the situation

4 rocks left, USA +2, not sure if they were able to do what they wanted

2 rocks left, USA +2

1 rock left, USA +1

They have an easy 2 available, or they could get greedy with a high-risk shot for 3-4 points

USA scores the 2 easy points available, USA leads 5-4 after 9 ends

I have AT&T yet I can't login to the online video. Thanks NBC. IN 2008 we didn't need to have affiliated accounts in order to view events online.

10th end, USA leads 5-4, Norway with the hammer, Norway needs 1 to tie or 2 to win

Bad shots by Norway

12 rocks left, USA +1

Norway really needs to end it with 2 points here. If they get 1 and send it tied to an 11th end, USA will have the hammer

10 rocks left, Norway +1

USA has a great defensive setup

9 rocks left, USA +2

8 rocks left, USA +1 or Norway +1, I cant tell

6 rocks left, Norway +1

Crowd is clearly against USA, chanting "Lets go Norway"

No idea what the hell Norway is trying to do, that looked like a wasted throw

4 rocks left, USA +1

3 rocks left, USA +2

I think Norway is screwed. They will have to make some great shots just to keep the USA from scoring, and if they only score 1 point they will probably lose anyway without the hammer

2 rocks left, USA +1

1 rock left, USA +1

USA played it safe by removing any chance at all of Norway winning. Now Norway has to make a shot to tie

Norway scores 1 point, end of regulation, tied 5-5, USA will have the hammer for the rest of the game

11th end, tied 5-5, USA has the hammer, first score wins

12 rocks left, Norway +2, but they are marginal

really bad shot by USA

10 rocks left, Norway +3

Norway is trying to set up a wall to steal a point for the win

8 rocks left, Norway +3, USA fails to clear anything out

6 rocks left, Norway +2

Norway is trying hard to hang on to their scoring position

4 rocks left, Norway +2

If USA chokes despite having the hammer, that will be sad

Norway calls their last timeout to look it over

3 rocks left, Norway +3 but the middle is still open

USA calls their last time out

2 rocks left, Norway +1

USA has left Norway with a very tough shot to defend their point. I dont see an easy way for them to keep USA from scoring

last rock of the game, Norway +1, they did a good job of making this difficult for USA, USA wins or loses on this shot

CHOKE! USA fails to score with the hammer, Norway scores 1 point.

Final in 11 ends, Norway wins 6-5

Here are some assorted comments from USA curling fans on another message board regarding the USA curling team's leader:

Quote:
F*** YOU SHUSTER

Get the f*** off this team Shuster.

Shuster commits Seppuku tonight, under/over?

Damnit Shuster

F***ing god are you kidding me? Let your sweepers win it jesus shuster.

He sure f***ed that one up.

so john shuster is pretty much the worst curler at the olympics. did he get his invitation from the bottom of one of the many boxes of sugar smacks he consumes per day? beat it, tubby, you ruined the olympics.

I'm already penciling in a loss to Canada, so they have to rattle off all the rest wins besides that and hope 6-3 is enough for the top 4. They should honestly be 2-0 with Canada.

For those wondering about the hate, apparently Shuster has a history of making bad decisions. He is the skip of team USA. In NFL terms, it basically means he is the offensive and defensive coordinator combined. He is the one who analyzes the playing field and decides what shot the team will attempt. While the rock is moving, he decides what the sweepers should be doing, and the other three team members carry out his orders.

On the last shot, all they had to do is gently lay the rock into the middle, his sweepers thought it was good, but he yelled at them to keep sweeping. Turns out the sweepers were right, the rock went too far, and sailed right past Norway's rock out of scoring position.

edit: bonus comment from another board

Quote:
Brits vs French sounds fun, but I won't get to see it because NBC will be dedicated to showing us how Shuster is failing America.
