It was a great game the other night for the U.S. It's almost unheard of for someone to score 5 in one end in a world championship game. Sweden was playing very aggressively, trying to set up a steal and got burned.

I've seen a lot of the politics between the US Curling Association and the USOC over the years. The USOC put a lot of pressure on the US curling association a few years ago after our poor showings in 2014 and 2010. There was a real chance of them severing their relationship. That's when the US curling association developed the high performance program. It looks to be paying off. With the USOC it's all about wining metals.
