At least they seem to know how to build interest in the Big Event they have landed. Let's just hope the LIttle League World Series doesn't run late.

I'm sure the canadian curling championships will run late and pre=empt these races! ;)

And if they do, my daughter will be glued to the set. We spent a year on sabbatical in Toronto and she discovered a sport she actually likes. (And enjoyed the curling related beer commercial.)
