John Shuster Quotations

Now people see that competitive curling of a high caliber is athletic, not just beer parties. It takes mental and physical strength.

That end really came around when Shawn made that hit and roll.

That's the shot we always work for the win.

That's because we've finally got some good-looking guys and ladies.

We even heard the President was watching some of our matches. That's special to know.

We didn't surprise anybody out there. That's for sure.

We love the attention. It's been very, very fun.

We love the attention. It's been a lot of fun.

We also had full contact curling out there today. I saw stars for a minute there.

We want to end this Olympic run with something around our neck.

We just had to look at (him) and kind of laugh. What else could we do?

It was an honor to represent the U.S., Minnesota and curling.

Of course they should get the attention. They're coming off a silver medal at the worlds.

It's a great atmosphere. You're hanging around world-class athletes.

It's probably good to get the red light out of the way. That will end up helping us in the long run.

That's pretty special to hear that the president was watching a curling match. We couldn't pay him to say that. So it must be true.

It was a feeling I never experienced. It was chilling. I never experienced anything like that before.

I'm sure they were probably thinking that it was 5 o'clock somewhere.

In a game like that it can be hard to stay focused. We make sure to talk about this between ends, but we also take time to enjoy the fans. Like today, we judged the new cheers the fans made up.
