Just to be Perverse (or perhaps merely a bit different),I pick Martin to win the 2009 Brier

Glenn Howard (Ontario) looks like a strong favourite to win the 2009 Tim Horton's Brier; Ms. Eclectic predicts he will win it. Menard (Que) has won it before, Gushue (Nfld) has won the Olympics, Stoughton (Man) is always strong, and others could emerge victorious. But I'm picking Martin (Alberta). We've bet dinner on it.
