Thursday night curling update... Last night we played the top team in our group. After the last two weeks of terrible play, we weren't expecting much, and the game started out proving that. We went down 3-0 after the first two ends. We were able to get one point with the hammer in the third end, but then we put it together and stole points in the next 4 ends to go up 7-3 after 7 ends. We figured that the other team would conceed the game at that point, but they wanted to play the last end. No problem, we thought... we just got to stop them from scoring four points or more.
Yeah, it didn't quite happen that way. Mucking up the ice by not taking anything out, we allowed them to put four rocks in the four-foot, thusly tieing the game. It was heartbreaking, but there's only so much a second can do.
However, not all is lost, as we go into the last game of this part of the season with a 2-2-1 record. If we win, we should be promoted to Group A for the last bit of the season. So, we may throw the game to stay in Group B. We'll see.
Oh yes, on another note... Today is the day.
I say important things of importance
