Canada has now lost in curling and both men’s and women’s hockey. This may be the blackest moment in Canadian history. Heads should roll. Trudeau had better stay in India.

That’s because as liberal as Canada may be, they actually send their best athletes to the games, unlike us, who wanted to send a team that “Looks Like America”.

It’s not athletics if one doesn’t break a sweat engaging in it.Likewise - If you can take a break during the action, have a drink, meal or smoke, it's a game, not a sport.

Medal count doesn’t matter. It’s Canada. It’s hockey and its curling. Every Canadian felt it just like Mr Spock felt the destruction of the Vulcan ship on the other side of the galaxy. They didn’t even have to be watching the events They knew it when it happened. Trudeau better be careful.

GFY. It requires physical skill, and is scored objectively.
It’s more a sport than figure skating or ice dancing.

You must not know much about ice skating.
And what does GFY stand for?I’m not up on computer shorthand other than LOL.

Ice skating is not scored objectively.
It’s not a sport.

They're to be congratulated for attempting to put a measure of objectivity into the judging. It's still judging. It's not purely objective.
I observe that you have abandoned your sneer at curling.
That's a wise move on your part.
