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…

Great job @ShaneRyanHere on demise of the Calcutta in golf. Curling continued for decades longer, with many great stories (which can be heard on @CurlingLegends podcast) but they appear to have died out during this century. Are there any notable @curling Calcutta‘s still around?
This week's Local Knowledge podcast is about the Deepdale Sandbagging Scandal of 1955. Pretty incredible story if you don't know about it, with huge implications for club/amateur golf and for the two men who conned Deepdale: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Time for part 2 of @CurlingLegends’ fantastic conversation with the recently departed Matt Baldwin, a true giant of the game. Including his greatest team that didn’t win – with Hec Gervais.

My road trip to Camrose…
One day a televised Slam may be played in rural Canada with less than a handful of Canadian teams in contention. Will viewers still watch, and will Sportsnet remain interested?
