2008 Brier Good, Bad and Ugly V

Hello. Here's the final Good, Bad and Ugly on the 2008 Brier:

The Good
1. Alberta - Congrats on a well-earned championship. You were hungry and it showed.
2. Ontario - Too many mistakes. Only they could be disappointed with a 1 point final loss
3. Saskatchewan - You came of age this year guys. Well done.
4. BC - Very good playing to advance this far. As good as you could expect.

The Bad
1. Newfoundland - The Olympics seem so long ago. Have to bring their game up a notch
2. Manitoba - Too bad they couldn't make a tiebreaker game in home province

The Ugly
1. Quebec - Went out with a whimper, not a bang. I expected more
2. Northern Ontario - Does beating Saskatchewan justify your existence?
3. Nova Scotia - Very erratic.
4. PEI - Came on late, but still not a force
5. Territories - No surprises here
6. New Brunswick - I expected more from a Russ Howard pupil
7. Ice for the Finals - Please, ice crew, be proactive next time, not reactive.

Regards,
Steve
