First time ever I see a curler fall. :bowdown:

It was amusing enough that Bryzgalova laughed and the Norwegian or Canadian curler gave him a high five.

Number of stones per end (5 vs 8), the pre positioned stones, number of ends (8 vs 10). Pace of play is also much brisker in doubles.

I also see there's that power play option, with starting stones being moved to the side.

    • 6 games done in the Women's Draw & even without the final result of   the top 4 cannot be shaken, so the last round will merely determine the semi-final draws   Women       JPN 6   0     P NOR 4   1     GER 4   2     USA 4   2     TUR 2   4     CZE 1   4     AUS 1   5     EST 1   5    
    • Yeah, Today was added the 34th Quota for Team Slovakia.    5th Sport, 7th Female athlete of the team, Return to the Olympic Short Track Speed Skating for Slovakia after 12 years     One of the two young girls Tamara Tokárová or Lea Popovičová will represent the country in Milano 2026 in Short Track Speed Skating.

    • Yeah. It was pretty bad that they cancel the contract with the original creative director after 7 months of work. I feel like politics, in this particular context of the changing of prime minister and the cabinet, may had caused changes in organizational decisions regarding the Sea Games including the direction of the opening ceremony. 
    • That's what I figured.  Wouldn't be a proper lead up to an Olympics without some media-fueled fearmongering.  
    • Today : Jordan 3-0 Egypt  This team will surprise us                 
    • option no.2 for sure, as it's been all this shitstorm organized by the nhl owners through their embedded reporters   ps not that the north american audience looks really aware of the hockey rules and habits outside the nhl (and around their game, too, since they look not to know that just a couple of weeks ago they played 2 nhl matches on an ice sheet of the exact same size of Milan's olympic arena)
