Noeller

I'm relatively outspoken about being a high-function depressive and anxious person. I'm on meds and in therapy for it, and manage life pretty well, all things considered. But I absolutely still battle anxiety every day, and no matter how confident I am in something (like us beating the ever loving piss out of The Gappers next weekend) there is ALWAYS that little voice in the back of my mind going bonkers about "What if.......??!!!!!" All this to say, I totally hear you........but I still think we win this game handily. We're just far, FAR better than every other team in the league.

No....IMO.

I've spent a lot of time thinking about that this season. And I think it's definitely both. For some reason, we picked up where we left off and kept rolling, while the other teams seem to have dropped off. Is it a by-product of us returning most of the 2019 line-up? Possibly. At any rate, I truly believe we're on a whole other level from the rest of the league.

30 bucks......Jesus Christ.

So sorry to hear this, Mark... hope you're back to 100 by Sunday!!

Manitoba has ruled the women's division of "professional" curling for several years now. Not sure how many follow the tour closely, but Tracy Fleury (from Northern Ontario) moved to Manitoba and skips 3 young Manitoba women, and they are the best team in the world right now. Kerri Einarson's rink (they list Gimli as their home rink, but they technically curl out of Winnipeg) are 2x defending Scotties champs, and Jennifer Jones rink is still one of the best on tour every weekend. On top of that, recent World Junior Champion Mackenzie Zacharias of Altona, is one of the hot young upstarts. They were granted a berth in the Scotties either last year or two years ago and didn't look out of place. They'll be dominant on tour soon. So yes, Mantioba's ladies scene is the best in all the land right now. Our Men's side, not so much. We have talent coming up the pipe, but the competitive rinks we have right now, are not actually competitive on tour. McEwen's rink is "dysfunctional", to say the least, and Gunner's team just isn't at the talent level of the top tour teams. The best Manitoba Men's curler is Matt Dunstone, who was lured away by The Gappers, where he's been skipping a team the last couple years. The hope among Manitoba curling fans is, with the Olympic "quadrennial" now complete, there will be an explosion as teams blow up at the end of this season and re-form as more competitive, talented versions to represent the Bison over the next 4 years. Fingers remain firmly crossed....

No, those tix are far too expensive. We're gonna head to our hotel and watch the game at the hotel bar. We fly out at 6:40 the next morning, so it'll be a relatively early bedtime!

Rewatching the BB right now..... Moar plz.....

Friday at 3:30 outta YYC.... Can't ******* wait!!!

What's so weird about KBFs take is that none of this is new..... We've been making combine jokes for decades. Why the butt hurt all of a sudden??? At any rate, **** that team and **** every one of their fans. I wanna be up by 30 at the half and keep rolling from there....

We are an urban populace.... Sask is entirely rural redneck. It's pretty clear.

YES!!!

I have only ever seen the 06 BB... Am ******* AMPED to be there next weekend!!

😂😂😂

LFG!!!!!

Man we're gonna kill these assholes next week...

This ******* game, man....

Aaaaaaand we're back!

What a finish.... A mess of a game.... But what a finish.

He's really good but he screams too much and his voice gets all garbled because he's yelling/screaming to create excitement. I think he'll get past that in time.

People worried about the team that is barely beating Sask..... Please.

I wonder if Faj's time in Sask is up. Might be the end of the road...

Got us a game....

🤣🤣🤣 This ******* game....

I'm ******* loving this game and so excited for next weekend! If I didn't have to work I'd be there already... Ha ha. Let's ******* go!!!
