Pa legal traps are 6.5 outside jaw with measured at the dog from jaw to jaw, so I am not cheating if I grab a bunch of Bridger 5s to trap beaver with? Ya know, every other state uses them? How can it be considered cheating? I am an Olympic beaver trapper, and everyone else does it.....lol.

You Canadians definitely dont take it well being proven wrong. You should show that curdler how to take his stone and go home.

My apologies to all you other good Canadians. Boco just opens the door and invites me in.

Then they'd only be awarding gold to the 2nd best team in the world. Kinda like hockey without the Russians in the game. Canada or US will win gold, but there'll be an asterisk beside it....lol.

If the Canadian team believed they were the best team, they wouldn't have cheated. They obviously disagree with you that they are the best curlers.

Agree, the rock touch is a whatever, there are infractions in every sport that are dealt with in the rules. Calling it “cheating “ is as big a stretch as saying that about a facemask in football. But, the reaction was totally lame and a bad look for an athlete from anywhere on earth.

You call a curler an athlete? Lol

Some of the first reports stated, (the front of the first hog line) and that would have made it cheating. Also there are comments stating there is a difference between touching the handle and stone.

I don't believe Russia has the best team when the NHL participates. Canada has been the most successful team in those years.

Now I'm thinking Boco and Savell are either the same person or genetically related.

Yes, kind of. I watched both and his looked to be a finger push to adjust the stone. And he may do it instinctively and not realize he is doing it. Hers looked to me as a carless hand movement after the release that led to a touch.

I love the curling and watch it whenever I can, although I usually root for the Canadian womens team. This year though I find myself liking the US team much more. I wish we could have the old Jen Jones team back.
