Al was my guest on Episode 80. si.com/curling/curling-legen…

Two-time 🇨🇦 champion Al Hackner is making his first Brier appearance since 2001 this week in Regina as coach of NO's Team Trevor Bonot. His very first Brier appearance came in 1980 in Calgary, losing to SK's Rick Folk in the final, the last time that province won the Brier.

Great example of how history books can be corrected with a little effort. I was unable to interview Willie Jackson for @CurlingLegends Podcast but have adopted his famous photograph as my avatar. Grab your favourite dram and cheers to 100 years.

Synthetic push brooms in curling. Sweeping has become more of a factor than a shot being on target.

Combine it with the other great Scottish sport of curling. A corn broom bonspiel with matching wool sweaters for every team. Beer and cigarettes on the ice are optional. youtu.be/E_vOaucotPQ?si=ocp4…

Merry Christmas! CLP gift this holiday season (care of Bernie Sparkes) is the semifinal of the 1983 Brier in Sudbury, Ontario. A classic game with every broom in use: corn, hair and rink-rats (which is like a nerf corn broom). youtu.be/dZSm4jdi9Fo?si=s9V7…
