If you curled, even at a semi competitive level, you would not say that. Sure in the 60s that might have been true, but take a look at the guys who are at the Brier this year. Have a look at the most recent Olympic gold medalists. The vast majority of these guys and girls are in fantastic shape.
Try playing a game. Throw 20 rocks and sweep 60 more. Then play another game in the same day. Obviously it's not as physical as hockey or football, but you'd be surprised at how much effort is required and fitness it takes to be good at it. Or you could continue to throw out badly inaccurate statements.
