Curling on TV: 2013 Continental Cup of Curling



The 2013 Continental Cup of Curling starts this week! It's taking place in Penticton, BC, from January 10-13. It's a super fun event - North America vs The World - and they'll play the men's, women's, skins, mixed doubles and singles (hot shots). I was fortunate to attend in 2011 so can vouch that it's fun to watch. Since the competition is a bit different and the teams are part of bigger teams it's a good time all around. There's more rules and info on wikipedia.




Teams:

North America: Nedohin, Jones, Pottinger, Howard, Martin, McCormick

Captain: Kelley Law

Coach: Rick Lang



World: Ott, Muirhead, Sigfridsson, Brewster, Ulsrud, Edin

Captain: David Hay

Coach: Peja Lindholm



It'll all be on TSN (or TSN mobile if you're on Bell or Virgin Mobile). All times below are Eastern.



Thursday Jan. 10

11:30am - Women's Team

4:00pm - Mixed Doubles

9:30pm - Men's Teams

11:30am - Women's Team

Also check out the draw schedule for the different events/team match ups. Be sure to watch/PVR some of the action. The World won last year, but North America is leading 5-3 since 2002 - I'm curious to see who will win...

Top 5 Reasons to Read Top 5s

Might as well start this blog off with a little self-explanation. You know this game. The one where you name your top five favorite such-and-such. You've played it on long car trips or just because. Then you all read your lists to each other and compare. So why should you read mine? 5) Because it'll be funny. Or at least good for a chuckle. 4) You get a free peek into a stranger's demented brain. People eat that shit up, right? 3) Come on. It'll take, like, five minutes. 2) Top 5s are hip. Don't you want to be hip? 1) Because why not, that's why.

2017 Fantasy Nascar Picks (Texas)

Welcome to TimersSports Fantasy Nascar Picks - Yahoo - A: Start - Kyle Busch Bench - Martin Truex Jr Reasons - I don't really have a prefer driver here, but I am going with Kyle Busch because I have more starts with him. That is really the only reason I am going with him over Truex Jr. Otherwise, I think they are both pretty close. B: Start - Kyle Larson, Ryan Blaney Bench - Chase Elliott, Clint Bowyer Reasons -I wanted to go with Larson and Elliott, but things worked out okay overall though. I can save my Elliott start from Homestead now. And use Blaney here instead. I think Elliott has a better car, but I won't risk it with him starting so deep in the field. Kurt Busch is the best start-save option in the field for Sunday's race. I also like Ricky Stenhouse Jr as a deep sleeper, too. I also think Jamie Mac will better than he has shown so far this weekend. C: Start - Erik Jones Bench - Ty Dillon Reasons - Heading into the playoffs, I thought that Texas was the place for E...
