Today Tuesday 16 February I was seeing an exciting game of curlizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Sorry about that is just that certain "sports" in the summer and winter Olympics put me to sleep. Why is curling a sport?? I agree that they have great accuracy but my mother could probably do a good job at this "sport".
Give me skiing, give me hockey, give me skating. These sports require human strength, precision, dexterity. But curlinzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, there I go again, might as well start a marble event; I know I could kick ass even in a wheelchair. I saw the Bilodeau, Heil, women/men hockey teams, now these are athletes. I'm sure that there are others, but these are the ones that stayed in my head. I know, I know, I couldn't curl if my life depended on it. Well they couldn't do many things I do such as, and also, not to mentioned, OK so they probably can.
I was debating this blog all night last night after team Canada won and came to the conclusion that these people are athletes playing a very boring sport. All the sports that attract our attention have a danger factor attached to them. Skiing, I see it because maybe the person will fall, hockey well perhaps there will be a fight. Skating, when the guy throws the girl up in the sky she might fall on her ass and lose points. Snowboard....well you get my meaning.
So if they were to modify curling in a way were there would be scuffles, penalties or anything that would make this sport more like a WWF were you would have blood, sneak attacks or cool names, then I would be glued to the TV. Or the biathlon, have the guy ski, push over his opponents, shoot pigeons or any other wild life that would be disturbing him/her: "John I think his aiming at that flock of seagulls, this could be bad" Then this would become a much more interesting sport.
So next time there's a curling game on, I will paint my face red, drink a Molson and scream my lungs out for Canada and if a fight brakes out well, bonus points!
Go Canada go!
