Sweden knew Canada’s Marc Kennedy was a notorious cheater.
So they set up a camera at the ‘hog line’ to record it.
And caught him doing it at the Olympics.
Read on the subject and it seems a bit overblown, social media helping. After the controversy they started being more vigilant and then they “caught” a british curler also double touching.
That being said they need to adjust their release technique to make sure it doesn’t damage the reputation of Canadian curlers.
Also video replay and challenges could be a good idea.

This is one of those sports that I don’t really understand the purpose of.

It’s got the highest boring/drama ratio outside of freestyle walking

clearly never been to Cleavland
Genuenly no I haven’t

And he was touching the rock as it crossed the line.

I think this whole issue is just set up by Big Curling to make this sport interesting.
Oh, a curling soap? Now we need the revenge plot, the drama afterwards, the plot twist by never before mentioned characters and in the end it was all a dream.

How about a Fargo-like series, with 5 seasons?
It would proceed with the pacing of people brushing a curling stone to its inevitable stop.

Why is there not a camera from the top pointing down? Wouldn’t that solve any disputes?
So the team with the biggest afro-haircuts win?

Send them on an all expenses paid trip to America as punishment!
So back home to Canada then time travel a bit to the future

Pfff … I don’t even own a curling iron.

Purpose? I’ve never got to play, but if there was a curling rink outside of a bar in the winter it would be tons of fun to play with friends. None near me though

Outside of things like running or swimming, do ANY sports have a purpose?

Throwing rocks at houses? Isn’t that illegal?

I mean they make way too much money so you could argue yes I suppose. But curling is just… Weird… Like that thing where they chase wheels of cheese down a hill makes more sense than curling.

What’s to understand? It’s just team shuffleboard on ice.

It makes sense if you understand its historical context. Its a traditional winter game from the 16th century when people were bored out of their minds in the cold ass scottland winters.

Just make a raunchy show about the gay relationship of 2 curlers from opposing teams and suddenly women everywhere will be interested.

Every angle including inside the players.

Even worse not just to America but specifically New Jersey, undeniably the worst part of America
Only if you’re sending them to North Jersey. Otherwise you’re just sending them to the shore, and we don’t need more corrupt dinguses here, thanks! Keep them!
