This was a noticeable problem at the Everest Curling Challenge last summer, too. It was disappointing to see the best women’s skips in the world spend a lot time listening to their male teammates tell them what to do. Not on every shot or anything...but more than you’d ever see at that level in either men’s or women’s…

The Canadian mixed trials were on recently and while entertaining, the men made it painful to watch. A lot of them refused to trust their female teammate with everything from shot calling to sweeping when called on.

Come on Preds, win the next 2. Carrie Underwood believes in you probably and I assume Dolly does too. #doit4dolly #cup4carrie

So [Watercraft] [Watercraft] was too on-the-nose for you, but [Protein] [Protein] wasn’t? Fuck you.

Sounds like Admiral Jazzy Pants is just thinking about himself instead of what’s good for the company.
