Strauss Canada Cup on CBC

Viewers enjoyed the game this afternoon, Koe vs Gushue, with side trips to the women's 1 vs 1 game that Stephanie Lawton won.
It was refreshing to listen to the teams make decisions about their strategy and shots, and not have to strain to hear what was being said.
Thanks to the analysts and "host" for allowing the athletes to speak for themselves, and the game unfold as they determined. There was little second-guessing, and even less "I would have done this" or "Koe is thinking that he should...."

The biggest criticism that we curling fans have today is that the CBC is only showing one game today.

Looking forward to the games tomorrow! Let's hope they show them one after the other.

p.s. can you imagine what the PAID attendance was today? It was a sea of empty seats......
