I think I will let all you more intelligent people comment and save my wasted bandwidth for thanks and congratulations after the game.
I will make a prediction, of sorts.
If I was a betting man I would wager on Team Manitoba.
But, I wouldn't bet the farm on it.
Honestly, it depends on what version of Rachel Homan shows up.
Have fun and good curling.
I will admit that, like ten years ago, I am watching this game drinking a beer.
Unlike ten years ago it's..
Low carb.
Keto friendly.
The more things change...
That doesn't work.

Other things don't change. I am still watching linescores. Nice start for Team MB.

They need to "tighten up".
Or so a man named Archie told me.

So the Rachel who relies on the bomb shot showed up and how is that working Rach? Everyone else would have made a out turn draw down to the yellow rock in end 2. Lots of room.

A new MB curling Queen will be crowned tonight. Einarson is just on fire. Coach Patti has been a big part of this I think...

Wow, I thought Einarson was about to cry on her final shot in 10. I really thought she was strong enough to deliver in that moment.
Still has another shot in 11, but that was a tough miss to watch in 10.
It would be an amazing role reversal from last year for Homan to pull out the comeback win in this year's Final.

Whew. Watching tweets and linescores and my heart was a pounding!! WTG Team MB. Now I'll settle back for some celebratory video clips.

Congratulations team Manitoba.
Hard fought, big scare but the chips fell in the right spots in the end.
Damn good game.

Real garbage move by Brian asking about Keri's deceased brother. Not the right moment for that, but I guess he got what he was after with more tears.

I thought that, too. Gross.
Congrats to MB and valiant effort by Team Homan.

To fudge the win in ten... then to have the exact same shot to win it all fifteen minutes later... and you’ve been thinking about it the whole time??
That’s nerves of steel.

I think @EinarsonTeam in her STOH2020 victory
just won a berth to the #RoarOfTheRings. No? I'm pretty sure I read that here somewhere. Very Glad.

Birchard was slotted as 3rd, Meilleur was 2nd, they were looking for a lead. Sweeting contacted Einarson out of the blue and volunteered to be 3rd, so the other two moved up.

I’m really looking forward to Worlds now. Hasselborg, Muirhead, and Fujisawa will have several extremely good new-to-Worlds teams to contend with this time, and I’ve got a feeling Einerson’s squad will acquit themselves much better than the last few Teams Canada have there.

Hey All,
First I am elated at Kerrie's win. Kerri really deserves this. She has been too long in Jennifer Jones shadow. And I have been a JJ fan since the shot heard round the world (2005 STOH) heralding the arrival of the greatest woman (an teammates) curler of all time - so far.
Of course I was disappointed in JJs loss - not only did she have nothing (draw weight) but even all the almost measures went against her. Horrid games happen but I don't believe for one minute she is finished or done. I think the weakness on her team is Jocelyn what if she had Shannon Birchard at second. She would basically have something approaching another Jill able to throw the fast one. Anyway enough of Jen tonite belongs to Kerri an the other skips who have apparently found a home on her team. Go Kerri...
-Ed-

Excellent win for the Manitoba rink although it was a nail biting extra end, given she was playing Homan. Nice to see a new team experience the thrill of being Canadian champion and going to the worlds. An excellent week for Manitoba curling with junior guys and gals bringing home golds from the worlds.

Just watched the final game. Do Russ and Cheryl realise there is another team on the ice besides Homan’s? If only Sports Net could do the Scottie’s
