I wondered who would post this when I read the news yesterday afternoon. I had an inkling it would be you or Busyman.

Well done, curling team USA.

We'll get our revenge at the 2008 games in the Hopscotch event.

Congratulations to the American Team. Curling was the only thing we had any expectations of medals in both male and female versions.

Other then the downhill tea tray, obviousement.

As much as I've always enjoyed watching curling (I was even dimly aware the Scots originated the game), my interest this time around was a bit deeper, and not just because the Americans had teams competing, because, embarrassingly, I didn't know that.

I won't make that mistake again, and I'll be paying more attention from now on.

I've told the missus I want an official Team USA Curling jacket so I can go to Bemidji, Minnesota, eat a pizza at Fenson's pizza joint, and get Pete to sign it. :D

I really appreciated his demeanor and sportsmanship during the competition; he honored the sport while having what seemed a really good time of it.

He did us proud.

I look forward to supporting the U.S. Hopscotch Team, too.

Don't forget the U.S. Darts, Marbles, Shuffleboard, and Horseshoe Teams.:unsure:

Great displays of athletism.:ermm:
