(not sure if I did the link properly).
Ian Tetley has no ownership stake in Title Sports Live, it's certainly not his company.

<snip> ... then I enjoyed the game. Sportsnet has the weekend semis/finals.
Sportsnet does not have any coverage. Sportsnet dumped ON and BC coverage last summer; The Curling News published the news in the fall.
Any other completely erroneous proclamations to make, decade?

Sportsnet dumping On and BC
Sportsnet is nothing but reruns most of the time unless it is hockey. How do they get away with that and charge for the service on our satelitte.
This is the worst winter I have spent, confined because of a severe leg injury, happy thinking that at least I can watch my curling and all I see are games that are re-runs. What is exciting about re-runs. WE already know who wins. IT is like leftovers the next day for lunch.
Totally disgusted over all this this year. I am not paying for streaming that half the time you can't hear, or it isn't the team you follow so you get bits and pieces of the various games.
This is just totally unacceptable. We need to have a curling channel and ditch sportsnet. I would gladly add a baseball channel and a curling channel to my cable or satellite and ditch the other natturing programs yakking about nothing half the time and these replays of people doing stupid things just so we can laugh, grow up. I want to see skill, not stupid plays and conversations.
Not a good winter. Very heartbreaking when I pay to keep my channels for my curling in winter and it has been nothing but a headache.

We might have to get used to pay for view streaming:
http://broadcastdialogue.ca/title-s...ng-association/
My curling club did not have TSL coverage this morning.
I've been trying to understand the reasons for the change and feel baffled.
OCA said it's because their member clubs are struggling to pay energy bills and OCA thinks $ 50,000 is too much money to pay a network to cover the Scotties/Tankard.
My club said, as far as they know, it's because members wanted streaming and it costs money to provide high quality coverage.
Does anyone know why things changed? It would be nice if issues were communicated to members of OCA clubs.
I think we curlers need to let OCA know that pay for view is not a solution: Stephen Chenier, Executive Director
steve@ontcurl.com
Sounds like Curling Geeks is one option.

Thank you very much for correcting my mistakes, Lesson learned not to pass on 3rd party info
But my next proclamation is that a woman will win the Scotties this year,

Ian Tetley's company "won"the rights? He is on the Board that would make that decision. Conflict of interest maybe?
Just to make things clear, I questioned the statement that someone else made, That Ian Tetley's company had won the rights, and if so would that be a conflict of interest being that he is a director on the OCA board. It was not meant to imply that there was. Sorry if it seemed that way.
