Hahaha curling seems like a really interesting game after reading this. Actually it was one of the only watchable sports in the winter olympics. Canadians have it great to see this stuff on tv. Of course Canada>US anyway.

I absolutely LOVED the curling on TV during the Winter Olympics and watched it almost every chance I could.
Really interesting sport with some really interesting situations and I think the olympics had some particularly interesting matches.

The announcers really helped too. Their passion and interest in the sport and situations translated really well on TV and they did a nice job of educating about the sport without being condescending.

Seriously, I couldn't get enough of this stuff during the winter olympics.
Prior to that I had pretty much zero interest in curling and had no idea I would end up finding it so entertaining so kudos to their coverage and announcing.
