Curling is an awesome sport. When you watch the strategy involved it's truly a thinking mans game.

Then they should put chess and the spelling bee in the summer olympics.
Just like golf, it's not a sport.

HAHAHA "Fishing" hahahahahaaha OMG hahahahahaha. "an athletic activity requiring skill or physical prowess and often of a competitive nature" can be said for a lot of things, but it's the *degree* of athletic activity and physical prowess required that separates a sport from a (skilled) game.
You don't need to be in great (or even good) physical shape to play curling. You can play back to back to back curling games and not break a sweat. You'll be mentally fatigued, but you would too if you watched sat your fat ass down on a couch and watched back to back to back movies -- but don't expect to see "Marathon Movie Viewing" as an olympic sport anytime soon.
