The US Curling team lost a critical medal-round match to the evil Canadians today:
The U.S. skip couldn’t lead the United States to the Olympic gold medal game, losing to Canada 11-5 in the men’s curling semifinals Wednesday night.
Canada clinched at least a silver medal and forced the Americans to play Britain in the consolation game for third place. That would be the first Olympic curling medal – men’s or women’s – for the United States.
This is a total bummer because the critical end was won by the Canucks after Rojeski violated the Hog Line. That’s the kind of thing you’d expect from Bode Miller if he was a curler, but for Shawn it was a big surprise.
I have to go get drunk now.
This is the dregs at the bottom of the bottle of sports mania. Intervention time! Into rehab with you!
When I start whining about cross-country skiing you’ll know I’m in trouble, but curling rules.
