    Not even to pick up some tips on your swing?

    It's happened. Curlers apologize into their mic soon after too. Not a big enough issue for the broadcast to go with a 7 second delay.

    No. I'm a hack, and am happy with my usual scores between 100-105. It's just so boring to watch.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    While I can't sit through a full day of curling; I do watch it from time to time and have always enjoyed it. I played a little in high school as well - it was a great time.

    Neither is the CFL.

    Ha, ha. Out of 600 employees at my work I've never heard the acronym CFL uttered when it comes to football. Maybe some of the maintenance staff refer to it when they are replacing Compact Florescent Light bulbs.

    This will be an Olympic event, confusing as hell, but will likely be popular.

    Not for me. Make tiddlywinks an Olympic event though and countries would start throwing money at it to boost their medal counts.
