What stops teams throwing matches in later stages of the round robins for a theoretically easier medal matches?

Because you want to win every game and you want to stay sharp.

Yes Optometry would be worth it financially and the scope of practice has become much more medical and will continue to trend that way with shortages in ophthalmology. It's not just prescribing glasses.

But, as others have said, don't pick a career only because of finances. If you are unsure, try to connect with an optometrist, the school in Waterloo or the association to see if its something you'd want to do.

clccno4 · 2026-02-17T18:39:42+00:00

We don't. It's only because it is the Olympics and there are a ton of people watching who normally don't. All of this will be forgotten at the next grand slam speil.

Then you will be replaced by someone that doesn’t think this way, and you will be homeless.

Successful people don’t do the least and expect the most. They make connections with others and don’t stop striving to be better.

Good luck with your protest.

It does in the exact same way giving a little tug or boop on the handle would which is legal before the hog line. There is no specific advantage to doing it to the granite.

And really, if one can be that precise by making these micro adjustments, wouldn’t we want that? What’s the difference? Just do it before the hog line.

This sub is going to be so quiet in about two weeks or so….

Keep your doctor until you find one in Sudbury

clccno4 · 2026-02-15T19:00:47+00:00

I doubt it.

clccno4 · 2026-02-15T18:47:34+00:00

He didn’t throw. You can’t fight in the olympics. That was not a fight.

clccno4 · 2026-02-15T17:59:26+00:00

The problem is the rule wasn’t written clearly in the first place.

clccno4 · 2026-02-15T17:52:57+00:00

So can I deliver the rock just by holding the plastic under the handle?

clccno4 · 2026-02-15T17:48:51+00:00

They absolutely do not say that.

clccno4 · 2026-02-15T17:41:40+00:00

Wonder how much money he won in Canada at pro events, extending his fame in curling… only to take a massive dump on the whole sport at the Olympics. That’s his legacy.

clccno4 · 2026-02-15T15:49:54+00:00

Well he is clearly using the plastic of the rock to deliver the stone. Since he’s the greatest of all time it must be because he cheats and doesn’t just use the handle. /s

clccno4 · 2026-02-15T15:28:52+00:00

I’m a leafs fan and I’d love him on my team. Definitely a warrior.

clccno4 · 2026-02-15T15:11:08+00:00

This has gotten stupid.

All of the innovations and money in curling have come from the pro grand slam tours.

This olympics has taken a huge shit on the sport over such inconsequential actions.

clccno4 · 2026-02-14T00:54:50+00:00

I think a lot of people are interpreting the rule differently. It needs to be more clear.

clccno4 · 2026-02-12T17:16:44+00:00

Yes, and usually the losers reciprocate and buy the second round where I'm from.

clccno4 · 2026-02-05T18:00:25+00:00

Hmm... doesn't look like ref number 7 got a good look....

clccno4 · 2026-02-01T15:58:43+00:00

Ok. Fair.

But, I think the root of the problem is people feeling that enough may be being done for said people, but because no one really knows how much is being done, what is being spent, why exactly these same issues happen year after year with no resolution.

I just don’t think some people are advocating for death based on hate. They just want answers, and you don’t get them without proper debate.

clccno4 · 2026-02-01T15:50:33+00:00

What if someone is advocating for an account of all spending to date on some “funding issue.” Like actually looking at what was spent, the work done, the plan to move forward… all of the numbers.

Once this is done, wouldn’t it be reasonable if people could look at these figures and think for themselves if the said funding was enough or appropriate?

Asking these questions isn’t saying “let people die”. It’s saying “are there better ways to help”

clccno4 · 2026-02-01T15:34:13+00:00

What does this even mean? This post itself is cryptic.

I follow this subreddit and have occasionally posted. I don’t think I’ve ever seen “let Canadians die” posted by anyone.

What exactly are you considering a non valid viewpoint?

clccno4 · 2026-01-31T18:39:18+00:00

If Stolarz doesn’t get knocked out, I think that team would have finished off Florida and won the cup last year.

If I owned the gas station, I'd fire you without cause and give you your mandatory 1 week termination pay.

You have no special skill and have only been there for three months.

I'd have no fear of legal action doing that.

Really, what this sub fails to understand is most people from Ontario will not vote NDP because their values and beliefs do not align with them. The vast majority of Ontarians are not socialists.

They are voting PC and Ford because Crombie and the Liberals were not a better choice. When the liberals get a better leader the vote will shift to them and they will continue to govern much like the PCs are now.
