I'm watching the scott tournment right now. I'm not sure if we'll be able to stream tsn from here on or if this is something special because of the really low interest in women's curling. Either way-I'm loving the SK/NL game that's going right now. NL is up 3 to 2

That's cool. I'm a big curler and fan. I haven't brought down my Bell receiver this year yet to catch all the curling on the TV. Maybe I'll pick it up on my next trip to the house in Canada. They are hosting the Men's World's in Grand Forks, ND this year and just bought our tickets yesterday.

And it has come to an end!! Watched 2 games yesterday, and was rdy to watch the 2000 draw--Ont vs Alberta, but it wasn't shown online!! And I believe the coverage has switched over to CBC, meaning no more online at TSN!! Oh well!! Hopefully they will show the mens on TSN!!

The closest I've ever got to watching curling is the movie Men With Brooms biggrin.gif
flames9
ya, that movie was just plain bad!! Funny ya, but soo bad! lol
Reba
I quite enjoyed it actually. I've watched it several times and even have the DVD.

Paul Gross is yummy yes.gif

http://tsn.ca/curling/feature/?fid=1085&hubname= tsn curling coverage!! hopefully it will be online as well


http://www.cbc.ca/sports/curling/tournamen...-streaming.html cbc mention Streaming, but not sure if there wil be actual live footage, or one can just see the score!! Guess will find out at 1130 eastern time today!!

I caught part of the Alberta/Ontario game last night at work. Of course I am cheering for Manitoba's Jones today and hopefully I can catch some of the game when I go into work again.
But also did anyone know that the US is having their National playoff today too? I'm more excited about that as our local guys are in the finals today. http://www.usacurl.org/curlingrocks//index...8&Itemid=79 I will be so pumped if they win and get to play in the Worlds coming up in April in Grand Forks. Crappy thing is that there is absolutely No tv coverage of these games. It saddens me how curling, even at the national level has no local tv broadcast down here (even when the local team is in the finals) but yet they broadcast highschool volleyball and basketball.

Curling is low in the USA, YET, last yr, one week (in USA), Womens curling had a better TV rating than NHL hockey! lol

Flames, I think you should try out for this. http://www.rockstarcurling.com/

Cassie

flames9
