If you’ve seen the many viral videos of McDavid screaming at his teammates it wouldn’t be a shock that he wants Babcock to rule over his teammates during his last dance with the Edmonton Oilers.
As if soccer wasn’t already lame enough in this country, our national team went out and lost a home friendly to Germany on D-Day wearing rainbow number jerseys. :/
A fan in right field during the Blue Jays/Orioles game just threw a baseball at Jesus Sanchez and injured the right fielder. Sanchez left the game after this bizarre incident
@sportsrage My best friend who lives right in the west end downtown immediately snapped up my two Canada tickets when he got shut out of the lottery. Once games are on people will stop whinging other than the anti sports crowd.
@robpizzola Amazing engagement play here Rob you are the best in the business at what you do.
Typically I hate it but this was a deserved ending for Arsenal based on their tactics.
@SadClubCommish@DhaliwalSports CFL lost ground to the NFL which has had games on CTV for free for years while 99% of CFL games were on cable.
You can argue ‘it’s not 1985 anymore’ but the league is hurt by casual fans needing to pay out of pocket, often in the summer, to watch Canadian football in Canada.
This is the opposite direction the CFL should be going in.
Not having a presence on free to air television while the NFL has weekly games on CTV has hurt national interest and now you will need multiple streaming subscriptions to follow the league.

I honestly don’t even know if I can stomach another 82 game season with this playoff format. You can win the Presidents Trophy and get swept by a 39 win team that shouldn’t have even been there.
