As for the weekend: final scrambles for cash and Trials messaging are taking place here and here... the Canadian Mixed wraps up Saturday from Whitehorse... and the new half-hour TV show "CurlTV" debuts Sunday on Rogers Sportsnet, at noon Eastern and 9am Pacific.
Meanwhile, we were originally miffed at this guy, who is apparently a great U.S. sportswriter, but after dissing him accordingly, he has replied that he was just kidding, and in fact loves curling... just not writing about it. The Curling News is hereby mollified, and welcomes Atlanta legend Furman Bisher into the fold of venerable journalists who just might try to hide their affection for our sport.
