2016 Scotties Canadian Women's Curling Championship: Update 2

Monday, February 22 - Thursday, February 25, 2016



The days all seem to blend together, but damn I love this routine. Days were punctuated by fresh tacos from the Farmer's Market, homemade soup from Laurel's, carrot cake from the Grande Prairie Coffee Company, chats on the media bench and laughs in the media work room. I've done this enough I know feel comfortable with the people backstage and even though part of me wants to go home to cuddle my cats, the other part of me wants this to never end!






Curling.









Chelsea Carey told Donna Spencer the most delightful story about when her dad won the Brier when she was a small girl.









A lot of times I just watch the camera guys set up their shots. Very interesting.










Guess how much these cost? 75K, 80K and 100K!









Boss man pulled a bunch of coaches into the scrum. Very interesting perspective!









TSN "green" room.









New this year - you can buy provincial/Canada shirts and jackets and have them crested with your name/your favourite curler's name. Head to the Grande Prairie Curling Club to visit Goldline for that.









We've taken over their territory!









The calm before the storm.









Still curling...









Snack!

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.
