Iām not a screenwriter, but I gotta think you could make a killer comedy out of the @Bell customer service experience. The live calls and behind the scenes possibilities are endless. And the jokes basically write themselves. Itās just such a wild experience start to finishš¤Æ
Out of my depth here, but those sure sound like some pretty awesome numbers! @rockleaguecurl is š

1.13 million Canadians tuned into Rock Leagueās weekend broadcasts on CBC TV, including 690,000 for Sundayās semifinals and championship game.
Rock League also amassed over 1.3 million views across all CBC social platforms.

Laingerās Locks predicted it perfectly of course!š Have to admit, I didnāt have @TyphoonCurling in the final, but they earned it! @MapleUnitedCurl was a surprise for me tooā¦Will GM @howardfour need to make some changes for next season to get the Maple Train back on the tracks?

Another episode of @RockStarsCurl comes out tomorrow and this week, @jjonescurl and I chat about āAre The Scottieās and The Brier broken?āš³ Iām very interested in the feedback both good and bad, so let us know what you think of the podcast, and whether or not they are broken.
Itās time to record another @RockStarsCurl podcast w @jjonescurl and weāll be talking about the current Brier/Scotties format and qualification process. Personally, I think itās broken in a lot of ways. What does everyone think? And if itās broken, what are the solutions?
Team sports are the best!!š„š„
I canāt wait to see this kind of action in @rockleaguecurl where rivals become team mates and itās all made for the fans!
New @rockstarscurl episode w @jjonescurl dropped today! Check it out and let us know what you think. Also, let us know what you want topics you want us to tackle next. And keep those Rock Star Rapid fire questions coming. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcasā¦
Curling fans, we need the @mccainfoods Skins Game back, donāt we? Currently watching the 2002 @retiredcurler vs @Kmartcurl semi final on YouTube and the format is the best! Tell me Iām wrong.
Look, if you donāt like hearing about life in Olympic village and what itās like to head to a Japanese bath and have an ice cold water fight with the boys before the Olympics, what are we even doing here?! ā¦Have a listen and let us know what you think. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcasā¦
Live look at @TeamBradJacobs walking into St Johnās for the Brier this week!š„And yes, the rest of the field who were at the Trials are going to hate it. But theyāre going to have to take it, cause Team Canada earned it. I doubt @BennyHeebz and the boys will enjoy it anyway š³š
