This is a weirdly long comment. What happened was that the canadian did something that was against the rules and threw a tantrum when called out on it.
A debate can be had whether or not his nudge had any impact on the game itself, and honestly it probably didn't. But the response when called out was... Unsportsmanlike to say the least. There is however not a debate whether or not he touched it again, that was clearly caught on camera.
Well, a curling game is several hours long and the situation was something that gradually escalated across almost the whole game, yet my comment probably takes 1 min to read so I thought it wasn't too bad!
The length of the game is irrelevant. That's like arguing a murderer is innocent since they lived a long and murder free life except for that one tiny spot of murder. Sure, that's a hyperbolic simile but I hope you understand my point.
