Via Damian Penny comes this site to celebrate the 10th anniversary of TSN.ca, one of my more frequent online pitstops. I was glad to read in yesterday's Globe and Mail (go here and click to bypass the Globe's subscription firewall) that curling is returning to TSN this winter.
Last year, the Canadian Curling Association, which holds the dubious distinction of being the most incompetent governing body in all of sports, decided to give exclusive TV rights to the CBC. As expected the Mother Corp. bungled the coverage. Fans were furious because TSN had always done such an excellent job. This year, it's back to the old arrangement of TSN during the week and CBC on the weekends. What a relief! Can't wait to have the old TSN crew of Linda Moore, Ray Turnbull and Vic Rauter back.
In other curling news, I won't be penning the weekly curling column in the National Post this season. I loved writing it the last two years, but with school and the book I just can't give it the time it needs. I have offerred to do occasional pieces, so we'll see if that works out.
