Super Sunday of Curling

What a weekend of curling!!

This afternoon was a Super Sunday of Curling on Sportsnet. There was the final of The National from Port Hawesbury. There was both the Semi-Final and the Final of the 2013 Ontario Scotties® Tournament of Hearts, the Final of the 2013 Alberta Scotties® Tournament of Hearts, the Semi-Final and Final of the 2013 Manitoba Scotties® Tournament of Hearts.

If watching curling on television wasn't enough there was also scoreboard watching on the internet. Both the 2013 Québec Men's Provincial Curling Championship and 2013 Quebec Scotties® Tournament of Hearts were decided today. Also the 2013 Nova Scotia Scotties® Tournament of Hearts, 2013 Prince Edward Island Scotties® Tournament of Hearts and the 2013 Saskatchewan Scotties® Tournament of Hearts were determined today.

On top of watching a lot of curling I posted a significant amount this weekend. On Saturday I had 40 posts and today I had 31 posts. I apologize to anyone who felt overwhelmed with the number of posts. However, that is the life of a curling blogger.

Thanks
