Please give Madeleine Dupont the respect she is due.
"The ear-splitting noise at the Olympic curling venue has drawn complaints from competitors in the normally genteel sport that fans are upsetting their rhythm, especially against Canada.
At first, the din from the stands generated an adrenaline rush that players said they loved. Now some are getting upset.
Denmarks Madeleine Dupont said she was unable to control the weight of a key shot near the end of Friday?s game against Canada because of the noise".....

Putting in PDX
NBC just highlighted the Norway-Sweden cross-country skiing rivalry. In doing so, the Notre Dame football broadcasting channel stated the rivalry to be like that of Ohio State-TSUN in college football. Put a smile on my face.

In the US-GBR men's match, I'm quite amused by the irony of Shuster harping on and on about a teammate's badly missed stone.

Curling team just went from getting 2...possibly 3 points, to knocking both of the stones out and giving GBR a point.

First off: ROCK ON Bode!!
Second: If Lindsey Vonn has been deemed the "face" of the 2010 Olympic team, I have no problem with that. But ONLY if Tanith Belbin can be deemed the "A.s.s" and the "Legs."
Peace
