Curling and Flash Together?

As some of you know, I'm a big curling fan... Yes, the sport where people of all ages throw rocks down a sheet of ice and then use brooms to control the rock. In fact, I've even got a great website dedicated to curling that I run in my spare time. In any event, I love curling, and I'm loving Flash based applications, so what could be better than a Flash application that updates scores automatically so users don't have to constantly refresh the webpage. Thanks to the great people at the Canadian Curling Association, its now live. I bet they're saving a ton of money on bandwidth, sending only small XML files back and forth as opposed to entire page layouts.
