Nice.
Did I miss Curling? That's the best Winter sport.

Don't think the curling has happened yet SIX. The medals Canada got were for skiing and speed skating.
Canada's women hockey team also beat Finland and Sweden as well. And by huge margins. Finland was 1 and Canada 11. Sweden it was 1 and Canada 12.

Don't know. All I know is what I posted that we wiped the ice with the Swedes and the Fins.

Glad the US won.
Didn't know maybe because we aren't playing yet.

Yeah. I don't think it was expected to be much of a challenge. I don't think the Chinese do much curling. That's kind of a Northern US and Canadian sport.
I'm hoping I can find footage of the matches and sit down with them. I don't know why I like curling so much, but I do enjoy watching it every 4 years.

Nothing wrong with enjoying curling. Had a friend in elementary school whose folks used to curl. We were at a curling rink for some reason and I asked him to explain it to me but I couldn't understand it back then. Might be able to now.
Yeah, sports like that the Chinese don't excel at.
