Glad you agree haha

Wow, Gushue vs Jacobs finish. 

 

Wanted Gushue in the playoffs. But also glad Jacobs won because I want him to take it now. 

 

I also decided I want Homan to win. I want the teams that have momentum and have the experience.

Team Black beats Team Einarson 6-3 to book their ticket to the women’s Olympic Trials final! 
 

Fairytale run from them.  

[orangeman 2,876]

No offense to Black, but Homan better win now. Same with Jacobs. I haven't really been rooting for anyone all week, just enjoying some curling, but now I will. 

 

I was stuck in traffic driving for the women's semi. But I should be watching tonight for the men.

Doing it for Colleen! First team since Colleen Jones to even be at the Olympic trials, now playing the final at home. Could her daughter in law go to Milan? It would be an incredible story.

 

One thing is for sure, the crows will be rocking.

You wouldn’t be fine with Dunstone winning?
