Truly. The info thingy said it was women's. Hateful.

Now, please remember to only respond with your thoughts on the NHL. TY

GB v USA womens match is being broadcast here. Currently GB 1-0 ahead on the 3rd end.
In hockey talk USA lost to Slovenia for the first ever time.

In bobsleigh news life imitates art as Jamaican womens coach quits and threatens to take the teams sled with her.

I'll try to resist further spoilers, it is being shown live here but I'm conflicted because the skeleton bob is about to start and we have won medals every time since it joined the Olympic schedule.
GB still waiting for it's first medal......

Played Bocce with a bunch of old Italian dudes. How they would talk about women, inspirational. Curling could be that on ice.

Of course, curling is boring- it's literally sweeping the ice with brooms. But the real question is why are men's and women's curling even separate? Are their not co-ed teams in the Olympics?

There is co-ed too.

They are separate so that women can get some medals.

There was mixed doubles a few days ago.

There are reasons why they are separate. Clubby posted an article a few posts back. Interesting read, they aren't exactly sure, but there are differences in the way the sexes play.
