A lot of time and hot air spewed by the Canadian coverage on the curling dram and the twice daily state of Poulin. Most of the other sports that Canadians are in are relegated to an 30 second recap and an graphic on the screen, and, very carefully none of the inexperienced talking head hosts, wanting to stick anyone’s neck out, have engaged in much lot chatter about this country not having a gold medal yet.
The overcorrection on the curling competitions, where officials suddenly became involved when they weren’t before (players took care of it and didn’t bitch and moan) will change this competition. No idea if any of these foreign teams are in the World Championships in Calgary next month, but if so they’ll be some booing there.
