cyclone24 Posted February 11 Posted February 11 Unless I’m mistaken, and I very well could be. I’m certainly not a curling expert, but I’m assuming the broom with friction somehow heats up the ice just enough to alter the speed and aim of the rock? I don’t know if it does anything for slowing it down? I’m guessing no? Quote
Maximum Overkill Posted February 11 Posted February 11 Yeah, but it's awesome watching the Women behind a broom. Just like it should be. 3 Quote

Voltaire Posted February 11 Posted February 11 People who play curling and know more about curling than anybody that posts, all use brooms which means they must be useful. Quote

Wouldn't it be cool to approach a bunch of pink and blue haired women protesting ice, hand them each a broom, and tell them to get home and do the only job they're qualified for! 1 1 Quote

Sweeping floors is too challenging for them. They max out at screeching, screaming, blowing whistles, and cheating on tests in gender ideology class. Quote
