what a well-thought out and positively worded post. Re changing the format, the Scotties and the Brier are still focused on a Canadian championship which brings in all the provinces/territories. It gives TV viewers home teams they can cheer for that do not necessarily have access to elite level curling, due to kids, jobs and funding. Unfortunately, this highlights a Tier system which defines a small level of teams/wild cards at a high elite level, and another group of teams at the Tier 2 or lower level, and the play this year reflected that schism. I don't know how you change to a better format, but the one used this year is very confusing. Personally, I like the old system better.
