When my dad was playing in Winnipeg in '72-I was about 8 years old-he took me to my first outdoor rink in the winter. My feet were so cold, and then it gets even more excruciating once they start to thaw. It was the most excruciating pain I've ever had.

It's totally different. Winnipeg was my first year skipping. It was kinda 'what's going on.' There was tons of information, strategy sessions.

We still have franchises in the process of rebuilding. I include Hamilton and Toronto in that group. They're not making a profit yet, but they're going in the right direction. I would say Winnipeg is a sensitive market, too. Our league is stronger than it was '96, '97, '98, '99, but there are still some sensitivities in those three markets.

There are a lot of managers in this league that would love to have a veteran presence in their line-up like Harry, especially when he's coming off one of his most productive seasons. I feel very fortunate to have him back and I'm sure the Winnipeg fans feel the same way.

The players, the committee and everyone was pleasantly surprised at how well it was received. The fans came out in droves, showed that Winnipeg is still a hotbed of curling and we're looking forward to maybe even bigger crowds this year. That would be awesome.

Winnipeg has already been there for the league -- in good times and bad. We're back in the East and we've represented the East in five Grey Cups (1988, '90, '92, '93 and 2001). Let's hope history repeats.

I remember coming to Winnipeg to play in 2001 and 2002 and how tough it was coming in here to play. When it came time for me to choose a team, it really came down to my desire to be in a football city.

Of course, Winnipeg is still in the mix. Everyone is around the same number (financially), so it's just about the best situation for me. Playing time is the thing.

You've got to remember that west of Winnipeg the ridings the Liberals hold are dominated by people who are either recent Asian immigrants or recent migrants from eastern Canada: people who live in ghettoes and who are not integrated into western Canadian society.

We can look at this as a success. We can definitely expect to back here. Manitoba and Winnipeg are very important markets to us, and the event has a very good chance of growing.

There was a lot of advertising for it and a lot of people had heard about it so it was pretty cool. I think my name is now more recognized in Winnipeg, which is nice.

We had a big turnout in Winnipeg but the point of this event is to showcase the Ricoh Coliseum to hockey fans in this city and the rest of Ontario. I think we'll sell out that beautiful building both nights (for the skills competition and game).

Obviously, we won't be replicating that, but in our own buildings we should continue to do well. We expect another great year in Winnipeg. The loss of the team in Edmonton will hurt but adding the Toronto Marlies helps offset that. We have four new teams in all so we think we very well might hit (7 million) again.

I went back to school (Simon Fraser) in '88 to become a certified teacher so I approached Mike Riley, who was the Bombers head coach then because I still had a house in Winnipeg and it was tough always moving my family around. I told him, if it could ever work out, I'd love to come back to Winnipeg. Well, Cal (who had become GM) wasn't ready for it yet.

My grandparents, I'm sure, were nervous sitting on the couch watching. And I hear that my dad had some friends over to his house. My sister's in Winnipeg and I'm sure they were all glued to the TV and cheering and sweeping on that last shot.

I'll tell you how hard he hits, ... It was the third play of the game last week against Winnipeg, and I was coming to hit (Milt) Stegall myself; Scott missed him and hit me and about knocked me silly for the whole first half.
