Spoiler alert request for DUers. Olympic trials curling is on tonight.

[mahatmakanejeeves]

It's on a cable channel. I don't have cable. Please do not spoil the heart-stopping excitement of Olympic-caliber curling by announcing the winner before I've had a chance to watch this on YouTube.

Thank you.

1. You may have to turn off all sources of news. Really hard to escape news like that

Good luck!

2. I wouldn't even turn on local TV

with the understandable excitement all the chryons will be showing play by play and local weather reports will be replaced by curling updates! Turn off phone as well since the Emergency Broadcasting system won’t be able to resist sending out alerts!

Seriously, hope you enjoy it and I promise not to ruin it for you.

3. Good advice! I have flood alert enabled and dam burst alert enabled. I never thought to turn off

curling alert.

Thanks!!!

4. My husband says mixed doubles curling trials was on all day yesterday.

He had surgery Friday, so he's recovering in bed with the teevee.

5. As one who has been excoriated for an alleged spoiler of something already on news feeds

I think I detect satire. But if series, there's not much to worry about.

6. If you have never played in a curling match

You have no idea how athletic and skilled it is.

I was always sore all over for a week after our matches.

And it's fucking cutthroat

Yup

7. Any sport

Where you can drink a beer and still be on top of your game is one for me.

8. Don't worry, I can never tell who is winning or losing in curling.

It all looks the same to me.

9. Olympic curling?

I had no idea.

10. There is a smoothness and gracefulness in the posture of the skips as they...

...slide down the ice in that tight crouch, waiting for just the right moment to release the stone, that I find endlessly fascinating.
