After the last game of the round robin, we had a practice. He made eight straight runbacks. We've always believed he was one of the great thirds in the world but this game put him on the map. I'm proud of him. |
Fort McMurray is the second biggest city in Newfoundland -- except it's in Alberta. It's a lot earlier in the day out there. That party will go on even longer. |
He's just like one of the guys. He's a big kid, and just been great to play with. |
I scheduled a hair appointment yesterday. I'm getting my hair cut Tuesday when I get home. |
In my opinion he's one of the best thirds in the world. For him to have a game like this, it basically puts him on the map, no questions asked. I'm so proud of him. I've seen him probably play a better super league game back home at the club, but to play it in the Olympics, with millions of people watching, you couldn't ask for a better game than that. |
In the early 1990s, if you told somebody you were a curler, they probably wouldn't know what you were talking about -- unless they were from Canada, Sweden or Norway. |
It's hard to know what to feel. As a kid you dream about Olympics, Olympics, your whole life. Now that we've actually won an Olympic gold medal it's hard to put it into words. |
We're not taking any satisfaction in the fact that we're guaranteed a silver. We came here to win the gold, and now we've got a shot. |
