I'm watching the match against GB now. I enjoyed it better when I couldn't understand the other team's strategy.

Sweeping

When a stone is delivered, it is important that there be two players following the stone so that they are ready to sweep its path if needed. Sweeping is done for two reasons: to make the stone travel farther, and to change the amount of curl. The stones curl more as they slow down, so sweeping early in travel tends to increase distance as well as straighten its path, and sweeping after sideways motion is established can increase the sideways distance. When sweeping, pressure and speed of the brush head are key in slightly increasing the layers of moisture that builds up under the stone.

it's just a placebo, like the 'close door' buttons in elevators that aren't hooked to anything. it makes them feel like they're contributing.

Yeah, the US men are about done I think...

I"ll still watch though, this game is awesome. I want to watch the women more though while my wife thinks the Canadian men are hot...

Canada just screwed the pooch. Had a chance to win and messed up. Last end coming up tied up.
