powerpoker 0 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 why cant i turn off curling...its horrible yet i seem to keep watching it :shock: Link to post Share on other sites
ajs510 122 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 why cant i turn off curling...its horrible yet i seem to keep watching it :shock:I was just asking myself the same question earlier. I think it's like cricket, you don't understand what's going on, but you're able to convince yourself that one day you will...so you keep watching. I have a British friend who told me that no American will ever...ever fully understand cricket and that I should just stop watching it. So I did. I'm still holding out hope for Curling though, I think I'm getting the hang of good old Rock Darts. Link to post Share on other sites

mrdannyg 274 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 why cant i turn off curling...its horrible yet i seem to keep watching it :shock:curling is like a combo of shuffleboard and horseshoes.a basic strategy outline.the team who shoots last in each "end" (there are 10 ends) has the "hammer." each team has 8 "rocks" (shots) in each end.if a team with the hammer scores in an end, the other team gets the hammer. if no team scores, or if the team without the hammer scores, the team keeps the hammer.the goal of the team with the hammer is to score two or more points. they do not want to let the other team score (called a "steal"), but they also do not want one point.the goal of the team without the hammer is of course to steal, but also to hold the other team to one point.since the hammer switches if the team with the hammer scores, if you can hold them to one point consistently, and you score more than one point...you'll win.so basically, if you have the hammer, you try to score two or more. alternatively, you'd like to "blank the end" or have no one score.without the hammer, you want to score. since you don't shoot last though, holding the other team to one is usually the goal.it's scored like horseshoes. closest to the center of the center ring gets one point. if the second closest is the same coloUr, you get two. if the third closest... etc. technically, you can score as many as 8 points. if a team scores 3 or more, or if a team steals more than 1, this is very good, and they will often win the game.this is not as short as i meant, but curling is a great game. it actually needs an enormous amount of strategy, very little of which i understand.oh canada...daniel Link to post Share on other sites

Or is that just me "wipe" is such a strong word. if the sweat happens to find its way on to something, which then founds its way on to something in front of my nose, well i certainly can't be blamed for that.actually i'm famous for washing my sweaty balls on neighbour's lawn sprinklers. size 1 is impressive. you can really hide stuff.
