As far as an Olympic sport it just doesn't make sense to me, we might as well add bowling to the summer Olympics, or actually even better let's add lawn bowling.

Rather than bringing in curling they should have brought in something like, I don't know, WOMENS SKI JUMPING!

Hey now, treading on curling is one thing but lets leave bowling out of this. 5 pin bowling in the games would be good. It just so happens I have a Canadian gold, so even though over the hill, ya never know.

And I,m in agreement. Womens ski jumping should have been in. 100%. Even though our ladies hockey is hallowed ground, besides Canada/USA, not much competition. It may wind up going the way of ladies fastball from the summer games, due to lack of it, if something does not change.

Say what you want about curling but its very competitive between most countries entered, in both mens and womens.
