Brier vs Scott

Like last year, I am very disappointed in the Brier after watching an outstanding Scott and once again feel that the quality of curling and the excitement for the audience was way better at the Scott. With the exception of the Tiebreaker and the 3-4 Game, all the games were full of suspense and mostly excellent shot-making: the Brier has been full of misses. The final hasn’t happened yet, but based on the draws all week and the playoffs so far, the men have not given us nearly as much excitement.

Also the layout of the ice, the scoreboards etc aren’t nearly as pretty as for the Scott. And I very much dislike the one-arm colour for the men’s jackets and shirts: it’s not attractive. And the quality of the broadcast doesn’t look as nice as the Scott. It’s not as nice to look at. (And no, I’m NOT talking about the players!)

Women’s curling rocks.
