Friday Fluffer - Curling at the Winter Olympics
Summer Olympics have Beach Volleyball.
Winter Olympics have Women's Curling.
Enough said except to emphasize how hot the Canadian Women's Curling Team is. Pictured is Cheryl Bernard, resident of Calgary and the uberMilf of Curling.
I imagine Curling Training Camp consists of touching up one's Frenched Nails, shopping for body-hugging yoga pants and chardonnay lunch with salad.
If you think this is criticism, you're wrong.

What I wanted to write was how I spent an hour and a half and two glasses of cabernet mesmerized by the entire sexy-mumsy nature of curling. Why is this spectacle of ripe women on their knees on ice not more widely lauded? But I didn't want to appear trivial.
From the Wikipedia entry on Cheryl:
Recently, Bernard was nicknamed "The Curlgar" by American sportswriter Bill Simmons.[link]
Good enough for me.

I feel very out of the loop as I have no idea what curling is. But from what you say, I take it it's somewhat of a softcore porn?
Curling, Snaf, involves large stones manually propelled across ice. More S&M than soft core, but you're on the right track.
i looooove me some curling! and cheryl uber hot... good call.
Don't get me wrong Cheryl is the hottest Cougar in the 2010 Olmpic Games but a lot of the Curling girls are babes. Melanie Robillard of German possed Nude in a Curling Calendar to promote the sport. New Favorite Sport!
Like Snafugirl, I too had no idea on what curling is but this posts sounds interesting and I did some googling on it to find info and now will love to actually See it on maybe my TV set.
Apparently someone spent a lot of time watching a lot of CBC when they lived up here in the PacNW. AmIwrong?
No judgements. I watch it too. I get it.
:)
Sorry as a Canadian who lives a block and a half from the local curling club. I find this the funniest post I've come across in months.
Sorry but thinking of curling as softcore porn is just funny. Hearing them scream out "swweeeeppp ppussh it go go go" over here on a daily basis sounds more like being in labour then porn.
ooooo good point. it does sound more labor-like than hot sex-like. it's nice watching the hot guys sweep really hard though.
Thanks Allison, I like that we have similar taste in Curlgars AND that you like men who clean.
*ahem*
Quite so, JY. Let it not go unrecorded that Cheryl is but one of a...what is the collective noun for Curlgars? A Scruff? A Snogg?...one of many hot ladies who curl. It just so happened that the first match I saw was Canucks and Sweden. OMG. I get shaky thinking about it.
Totally my new fave sport too.
Martian, I see you know the way of my mind too well. I miss my regular weekend forays north o' the 49. Sigh.
Miss Blood, are trying to ruin my five minutes of fantasy?
*laughing*
Curling's attraction is clearly in the eye of the beholder. I choose to ignore your realistic assessment and stick with my hawt ladies.
Cheryl is on the TV as I type working on a gold medal. I now have a better understanding of why curling is so popular; it takes smarts and skill!
Go Canada go!

I'm just pissed that curling was never even offered to me when I was young!
What a missed opportunity ...
Girl! Your emphatic championing Canadia is heartwarming. I think you guys actually do own that podium don't you?
You can see yourself sliding on ice like Cheryl can you Kat?
Seems like an equal opportunity question to me - were your Curling Rights violated?
Yes, I do believe they were. Often, I have no problem with being violated, but in this case ... ;-)
...which leads me to believe that you're a candidate for Suppressed Curler Syndrome.
We need a way to help you express your inner Curlgar.
