Pete Fenson was on the Today Show a week or two ago plugging Olympic curling. I hope his team qualifies--the last US skip was a DISASTER.

Danne D:

It's so garbage that they are probably kicking out wrestling. Wrestling is as olympic as an olympic sport gets
Avatar 6:17pm
hamburger:

so sportsy talk has dismissed curling to the side lines? :D
Avatar 6:17pm
Danne D:

@hamburger you should call in :)
Avatar 6:18pm
Carmichael:

Greco-Roman wrestling is too homo-erotic for the average Olympic viewer.
Avatar 6:20pm
Danne D:

It's actually harder ice than used for skating
Avatar 6:21pm
Danne D:

Pretty sure about that :)
Avatar 6:22pm
Danne D:

The ice may be natural but is usually frozen by a refrigeration plant pumping a brine solution through numerous pipes fixed lengthwise at the bottom of a shallow pan of water. Most curling clubs have an ice maker whose main job is to care for the ice. At the major curling championships, ice maintenance is extremely important. Large events, such as the Brier or other national/international championships, are typically held in an arena that presents a challenge to the ice maker, who must constantly monitor and adjust the ice and air temperatures as well as air humidity levels to ensure a consistent playing surface. It is common for each sheet of ice to have multiple sensors embedded in order to monitor surface temperature, as well as probes set up in the seating area (to monitor humidity) and in the compressor room (to monitor brine supply and return temperatures).The surface of the ice is maintained at a temperature of around 23 °F (−5 °C).[14]

could you call curling the encompassment of an ice hockey penalty shootout zen? probably not. just thought I'd curl it out there.

Anyone care about Formula 1 Auto Racing?
Avatar 6:24pm
Danne D:

I'm right. according to the "How Stuff Works" guys. Hockey players prefer ice of 24 to 26 degrees. Figure skaters prefer 26 to 28 degrees. And as mentioned above curlers prefer 23 degrees :)

Holy Curlers, Batman!

@Hamburger Curling and the shoot out are opposites. Curling is cool. The shootout sucks :(
Avatar 6:25pm
Danne D:

@cbk you think they ever gonna have the race at Port Imperial?
Avatar 6:27pm
hamburger:

Throw brush friction into the mix, that is rocket science on brushsticks! / I know not enough of either sport Danne D, but Curling. Curling :oD F1. Hamilton/Alonso/Vettel hmmmmmm.

yeah, Oscar Pistorius, he's something to talk about.....
Avatar 6:35pm
Pete from Boston (and NJ):

Football should be difficult, complicated, stressful, and New Jersey embodies all of those things. There is no more ideal place to hold the Super Bowl.

Route 80 would be a parking lot if they did that
Avatar 6:39pm

Sorry to say that if you knew the truth about Lance you would realize that he is pure evil... yes, he made a lot of money for cancer research but here's the deal - The powers that WERE told him they would cure his cancer but he had to help support the evil agenda by raising money for the 'medical community' - cancer research in particular - which they use to support yet more evil.

Jerry Buss died - that's sportsy talk AND news of the dead
Avatar 6:44pm
Pete from Boston (and NJ):

Here's a topic: the world is full of eligible, deserving candidates for the baseball Hall of Fame, and thanks to the deadlock over the Three Stooges, none of them got in this year. If baseball writers are this dysfunctional, how can they possibly criticize the sport?
Avatar 6:46pm
Pete from Boston (and NJ):

Isn't this song called "Hot Action" or something like that?

I bet baseball lost out by not protecting "World Series" early enough
Avatar 6:54pm
Pete from Boston (and NJ):

Birdwatching would be more interesting to me if there were something like a three-legged race at the same time.
Avatar 6:55pm

"Heavy Action" is the Monday Night Football theme, to anyone I may have misled.
