While I would love to see QC win, PE is way to experienced to let this happen. However ML has a new glamour girl with Laurie St. George

Under normal circumstances Homan & Co. would perhaps be a prohibitive favorite.
But to ask this team to overcome two very solid Manitoba teams as well survive an extremely demanding schedule, when the Skip is eight months pregnant*, is probably beyond their reach.
On that basis I see the Scotties champion of 2016 and 2019 adding a notch to her curling broom on the 28th.
* Is there any other "Sport" in the world, with exception of Archery, that one could possibly be competitive in the 8th month?

That was a car crash...PEI collectively lost focus in the 9th. I hope they have a good discussion about this. However, she got her first 2 wins by a bit of luck. Cant have that in every game.

Or even better, just during curling season, let Ferbey drive the zambozi at the drive through with Sid and Nate holding curling brooms, and have the Tim's employees go gaga over Ferbey instead the NHL stars. Funny AND big with the over 50 crowd that watches curling. Gold.

From coffee talk to curling . . .
One thing I've observed (keen powers of observation) is that Little Laura Walker no longer fears Rachel Homan as a big, bad monster - like most opposing skips do.
She's matching Rachel shot for shot - not a particularly hi-percentage game but obviously the best TV match thus far.
Should go down to last brick; maybe an extra end . . . ! ! !
Well despite a valiant effort, Team Homan prevailed!

Rizzo sounds irritated with Galusha...I think she should be throwing last rocks...

100 plus other curlers who would be better than Rizzo and have Scotties experience. Did Kerry's Ontario coach push for Rizzo to be asked? Just a really strange choice.

It should be the FEATURE MATCH - but TSN is obviously thinking about stopping Jones from more airtime!!!
Ludicrous. TSN has a lot of things to improve on but they know that there are a lot of Jones fans out there and there is no way they are somehow deciding to keep her off the air.

I'm watching the SK MB game and couldn't believe it when I heard Vic say Jones' stats were so great. I checked it out and now I see why. The last shot where she called a split for 2 and totally missed the called shot and nosed it for a blank, was given 4/4. How do you give a perfect score for missing the shot completely? At most a mercy 1/4. Should be zero.

6-time Canadian champion Jennifer Jones was painful to watch today.
There were no signs of past glory. Same name, same demeanor, a bit less bossy.
But the shots simply aren't there anymore. Worse yet, she's out of sorts reading ice and line.
Can't quite write her off yet. If she gets into a deadhouse game to advance, you never know - but I just can't see her squirming past lionesses like Homan, Einarson, even Carey (when she's on) or the Z-Girls.
Jones and Co. are no longer Curling's FANTASTIC FOUR. In fact, a waffling, plodding Jones now reminds me of the painful demise of Connie Laliberte who suddenly couldn't make shots to save her life during her last couple years on the scene!
Well Joss missed quite a few and as for Kaitlyn, she looked like she wanted to be somewhere else. Somethings up with this team...

3 time Canadian Sr champ, 2 time World Sr champ, Scotties silver medalist, etc etc etc. Drew to the pot after 6 curlers had blown shots along that same path. Told her curlers to ignore their stop watches because she was creative in her delivery that time. Experience. Demeanor. Good win Sherry. Have at 'em.

Great to see QC do well, but coach Dad better reign in Skip Laurie before she is caught up in the hype. No extra interviews etc...

Its been a long time since quebec has had a womens team to get excited about but she's here. i didnt think that she'd be ready here for her first time but here she is 3-1 and with manitoba, british columbia and wild card out of the way they should be able to win enough games to qualify now for championship pool
laurie really does seriously remind me of marie-france larouche and dordi nordby. the way they'd bounce all around the house trying to figure things out. so full of energy. she's fun
im glad saskatchewan bounced back from that opening loss. 2-1 but should be 3-0. they're playing well and hopefully will get out of the group

Why can't Gerry and CZ even get a players name right in the score list. EDDY not EBY FGS.

Actually ML, not to be nit picky, it was Paul McCartney. Google the James Corden carpool karaoke show where they go to Paul's childhood home. Touching story.
Mother Mary was his mom.

FYI Eby and Eddy are 2 different people, 2 different teams., 2 different territories. Get a mitt and get in the game
