Wheels coming completely off for Italy women’s curling. I didn’t expect them to medal but they haven’t even won a game yet. Crowd is totally out of it
Their NGB messed with the lineup and it shows

Here's where I rank the "Marc Kennedy doing a little tippy-tappy a centimeter over the the hog line" big curling rules story in the grand scheme of sports infractions on a scale of "Does it meaningfully impact the game" vs. "Do the officials consistently always call a penalty"

World Curling has sent an email to all the teams competing at the Olympics clarifying “proper release” of the stone.
Also, for the remaining games umpires will be “observing the delivery”

Some other thoughts about curling umpires judging hogline violations:
Umpires are volunteer officials who are not really trained to spot hogline touched. It’s boring to sit there and watch releases. And the infraction happens too fast when/if it happens

Curling umpires (which I have done) famously want to stay the hell out of any rulings. They do not want to babysit deliveries. They will tell players before the event "this is your first hogline violation warning"
I mean, there are officials. They didn't penalize Canada. Then Sweden started randomly bitching to Canada. They deserved the talking-to Kennedy gave them.
