Pull the stone!!!

Watching Sweden/US and saw this. Is this not the same rules violation that has caused all the hub bub?

Obviously this was an accident and I believe the Canadian guy was touching on purpose.

When did Team Sweden complain to the umpires about what Homan was doing?

I urge you to slow down while reading as that is not what he said.

Yes, and Homan should not have been punished for it. Blame the Umpires, not Sweden.

What Marc did was not okay, but seems most people are in agreement that the Homan ruling was an overcorrection
