Because what you needed was a 🥌 top ten list from the Trials.

ICYMI, I did a 30 minute breakdown of the tenth end between McEwen and Dunstone.

It really is bonkers to almost get 4 🥌 in the tenth end.

Brad Jacobs' first shot in 10 is a gobsmacking call.

The @tsnofficial.bsky.social feed was showing replays of Dunstone's amazing draw.

Joanne Courtney says, "oooohhhh."

He didn't accomplish anything while in the minority.

He whined on Fox News and had Republican AGs sue in court.

But he actually didn't stop Democrats from doing anything.

He couldn't even stop a Black woman from becoming a Supreme Court Justice.

Vaccines cause adults.
I wish all figures of authority cared about moms and babies. But some don’t. Some even want you to hurt. And those are the people who cast doubt on the vaccination miracle that has allowed so many of us to live longer and better.

Since 2020, Brad Jacobs is 10-1 when he’s tied up coming home with.
November 30, 2025 at 1:43 AM
Brad Jacobs just won the trials with that shot in 8.
November 30, 2025 at 1:26 AM
Should I be writing that I feel bad ofr Matt Dunstone now?

Starts 4-0, hits a massive speedbump, has not really looked in control since.

They look tentative. They don't appear to be communicating.

Just kind of going through the motions. Throwing rocks but not making shots.
November 30, 2025 at 1:24 AM
Dunstone needs a deuce this end and then a force or this one is over. And a deuce is looking really precarious.

Looks like we're not 🥌 tomorrow.
November 30, 2025 at 1:14 AM
Dunstone needs a force.

A Jacobs deuce and this could be over
November 30, 2025 at 12:55 AM
Matt needs a blank or a drive in this end.

Looks like he’s playing for the blank.
November 30, 2025 at 12:19 AM
Jacobs almost makes the shot of the night.

Matt needs a deuce or a blank here to keep control of the 🥌 game.
November 30, 2025 at 12:16 AM
Okay, solid skipper's deuce by Dunstone.

Get a force, get a deuce. Put some pressure on Jacobs.
November 29, 2025 at 11:57 PM
At this point, I don't like our chances at curling tomorrow. Things can change. But Dunstone is not firing yet. And he needs to be firing.
November 29, 2025 at 11:48 PM
Okay, so in the second end, Jacobs steals one. Dunstone throws a draw to the lid that the sweepers watch for a long time, and then watch it crash.

If Dunstone doesn't score in the third end, we're not 🥌 tomorrow.
November 29, 2025 at 11:42 PM
Here's my hope for tonight's final. Dunstone comes out aggressively, gets an earlty lead, and the ice holds up.

There are less people in the building than in the afternoon game. And the ice was okayish this aft, so maybe.

Maybe we'll get a memorable game of 🥌
November 29, 2025 at 11:15 PM
The crowd in Halifax gave a massive cheer for Jacobs. I think they want it done tonight.

Who doesn't want a Sunday off?

I don't.
