Yah, fer shure. She's headed fer the two-fut, so just clean 'er, 'kay?

I love the one commentator:

"Ohhh, that was a bad shot. Terrible shot. I don't like that shot at
all..."

I like the way he says, "Was that shot any good?" when someone hits a
great shot. Typically understated Canadian.

BTW, Carol says that those two commentators have been announcing
curling as a pair in Canada as far back as she can recall. IMHO, they
really add some great flavor to the broadcast.

The thing I like best about curling is the pace. I mean, how many sports do
you know where a spectator (or a participant, for that matter) can be there
for the start of a play, go out for a smoke.....and maybe a sandwich and a
quick shower.....and be back in time to see how it ends?

they need to tweak the halftime shows, though.
