SportsFilter: The Sunday Huddle:

A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.

Entering Day 4:

I was gliding around the house in my stocking feet and casually decided to do a little housework. I grabbed a small plastic household broom from the closet. My wife immediately began hollering instructions to me in Norwegian. There was some sort of residue in the hallway. I scrubbed at it vigorously for what seemed like several long seconds. I'm not sure if I got it all.

Update: my wife now says that she wants to be the first female curler to represent Tonga in the Olympics. But she only wants to compete in the mixed doubles tournament.

Do the Norwegians yell in Norwegian? I think there are a few non-English speaking countries I've seen where the skip still yells in English.

beaverboard, I would be very careful if your wife starts collecting rocks from the garden.
