Winter Olympics

What about curling? You probably have the best men's and women's teams in the world right now.Czechs love winter sports, especially ice hockey - it's just a shame the current team is rubbish. Instead we have to listen to commentators wistfully recalling Nagano over and over again. It's like how the English reminisce about 1966 every time the World Cup rolls around - even though most weren't yet born.Czech Republic's done well in quite a few events, though. Gold in the women's snowboard cross, a gold and a silver in women's speed skating, and a pretty impressive 3 silvers and 2 bronzes in biathlon. Not bad for a little country of 10 million.

Further on the Canadian curlers; I'm watching the men's final at the minute, and they're ridiculously good! I saw some of their demolition of China in the semis as well and, whilst I didn't watch any of Canada's games in the round robin, I haven't yet seen them make any mistakes. I'm flummoxed as to how they lost to Sweden - both in this Olympics and in the World Championships. They're like machines!ABE: Ugly outfits, though.Edited by caffeine, : No reason given.
