Every four years when the Winter Olympics roll around I become fully engaged with curling...doesn't matter the countries competing, men's women's, mixed doubles...I'm all in. So when the U.S. men's team won the gold medal I was ecstatic.
Earlier this week I heard that former KC Chiefs Jared Allen and former STL Rams QB Marc Bulger have taken up the sport.
I got in contact with U.S. curling coach Phill Drobnick who gets into the fine details of the sport. You'll be amazed at the science, physics, strategy and technology that goes into the sport.
For anyone who ever said "That looks easy," Drobnick admits any schmuck can do it, but to excel at the sport takes many years.
Enjoy
