Just a pure choke

When I see comments like this I have to ask...do you curl? Would you have been in the same position?

I really think that when Canada hasn't won a gold in womens curling for the last few olympics that this is not really a choke. She says herself that she should've made the two shots for the win, but anyone who curls knows that this is how the game is sometimes. There are a lot of factors for every shot and you just can't control every one of them.
