Sweden knew Canada's Marc Kennedy was a notorious cheater.
So they set up a camera at the 'hog line' to record it.
And caught him doing it at the Olympics.

That does seem like solid proof
Yes, but the Canadians threw a hissyfit shouting "Fuck off!" repeatedly at the Swedes during the match. They later went to Swedish newspapers accusing the Swedes of staging a conspiracy against them.
Those mooseknuckleheads should have been disqualified from the match for their shitty behaviour.
We're not sending our best [to the Olympics] :(
Yep not impressed with this display of poor sportsmanship
During the whole thing I was just picturing these curling nerds saying that shit to my face and how that'd go down lol.
Hear hear we got a badass over here.
Yes I am a violent drug addicted criminal, I don't know maybe you're a nice kid in school and wear shirts and stuff but around my hood we don't.
You realize we are not in your hood
Hence the if. I am in my hood. Is this gonna take long for you to internalize, or? You do realize that outside the bubble you live in is a big world with all sorts of people in it, right, some of them not particularly nice. What I said was, you speak like that around the wrong people in the wrong neighborhood you're gonna get your face stomped. Is that something you find hard to believe?
No my friend, the point is we are on the Internet and nobody gives two shits how rough your neighborhood is. What the fuck is the point of telling me i get assaulted by poorly adjusted individuals over words? I wont meet them, i dont live in a country where we have "hoods".
Sit down and stop acting like a badass in comment sections, nobody cares. The sheer fact that you are on this platform is evidence in itself that you are first and foremost a nerd, which is perfectly fine so why the posturing, lol.
You're right, I'm a pussy, never been in a fight, I'm a straight laced motherfucker, good night.
Lol, this is so stupid. Why?
Because we aren't kids and don't go to school since the 90's.
Oooh, is this what you meant to say?
Yes I am a violent drug addicted criminal, I don’t know maybe you ~~’re~~ were a nice kid in school and ~~wear~~wore shirts and stuff but around my hood we ~~don’t~~didn't.
Sorry, but it's still a really stupid thing to say and it doesn't make you sound as tough as you might think lol
What, getting your ass beat half to death by Olympian athletes?
Hahaha yeah I'm sure those curlers would be a rough fight! Try to understand that not everyone is an overweight neckbeard living in some WASP community like you do, buddy. Turn on the news sometimes.
Edit: oh wait wait I got a few good ones! I bet they would sweep the floor with me, hahahaha! I bet they would curl-stomp me! Hhahhhah! Aw shit that's all the ones.
I think aggressively sweeping ice with a broom builds up more arm strength than typing on a keyboard. Keyboard warriors are at a significant disadvantage in most fights.
You are certainly like most people: a coward.
Yeap that's me, never done an illegal thing in my life, never been in a fight, a total pussy hahahaha
And it was available for review right there right then. But we can't use cameras in sports, because apparently that would ruin sports, for some reason. Oh, and except when they literally use them to measure stuff like who's over the finish line first, or inside a line, or outside a line, or measure things down to 1/10000th of a second, and literally film every single moment of every event from every imaginable angle. BUT NOT FOR THIS. Because it would ruin the sport, all sports.
disagree. it isn't conclusive. it shows that his finger was very close to touching for a few frames. that's it. "very close" is not over the line. his finger is just enough on the back side that it's inconclusive.
it's a bit of a weird motion, sure, but watch a bunch of throws from various people and you'll see some similar stuff.
that said, adjust your delivery so you're not in this position in the first place. and settle down, even if there's an ongoing issue you're annoyed about.
I do find it funny that this is such a big deal but you can see people all over the place in this tournament dragging their finger(s) down the back of the handle at release, seemingly over the stone as well (yes I recognize that is a different motion that poking forward after being behind it)
You can touch the handle several times if you want
yep
and video seems to show those drags continuing off the handle and onto the stone
Its a snapshot, he could have released this handle and retracted his hand with his finger off to side of the tangent of the rock. Wed need frames before and after for better review
Well in the slowed video it totally looks intentional https://youtu.be/W1yh6GN5ysks
Yeah, that's a definite little poke after releasing.
And he was touching the rock as it crossed the line.
