HERE is a pretty cool Deadspin article about 4 ex-NFL players who have formed a curling team with an eye on the Olympics. These guys were all stars with the Minnesota Vikings, and a couple are likely hall of famers. It will be interesting to see how these obvious athletes progress in their journey.

Which curler are you blindfolding?  The shooter?  The skip?  The sweeeeepers?   Those men who sweep the ice using those great muscular arm-guns  can come do my kitchen floor any day! Hurry! Harder!

Crokinole is lots of fun. Played for the first time in years, last year. My niece gave my great-nephew a board for Christmas. Best gift ever.
