Hitchens's Razor: That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.

@RobynUrback Ambivalance to a failing system is unfortunately a Canadian trait.

[Canadian Premier League @CPLsoccer]

Canada's World Cup may be over, but the impact of this team's performance on the sport in this country will live on 👏.

Thank you for bringing Canada together.

They made their country proud. They fought for every minute.

They made history, no matter this result.

Canadian heroes. Forever. ❤️

POST-GAME INTERVIEWS 🎙️

Alphonso Davies, Luc de Fougerolles, Tani Oluwaseyi, and Liam Millar react to Stephen Eustáquio's last-minute winner 🗣️

LDF: "I can't even describe it. I didn't even remember, I was just running after him, I didn't know where he was going" 🤣

5.3 MILLION VIEWERS.

A record-breaking audience tuned in to watch Canada secure its first ever #FIFAWorldCup victory against Qatar on Thursday! 🇨🇦

[Ben Steiner @BenSteiner00]

The #CanMNT 6-0 win over Qatar reached 11.7 million individual viewers yesterday.

An average of 5.5 million.

About 28% of the country watched at least part of that match. Simply incredible

* Correct quote is “politically left” not socialist. Point stands. Entrepreneurs take potential and turn it into value that’s added to the global GDP. They capture a small amount of that value in the process which is a big part of the incentive. The rest goes to others, employees, shareholders, government, suppliers etc.

You can always criticize them. You can always criticize the redistribution efforts. But you should always remember that without them, there is very little new value enters society and that locks everyone in zero sum competition, sometimes war.

Entrepreneurs are load bearing for human thriving. It’s a glorious act to put yourself out there and build a company that provides good and services to everyone. And Elon is the best entrepreneur that ever was. You don’t have to like him, and sure he’s crazy, but otherwise he wouldn’t do crazy things. Same coin, two sides.

@FrontRowBrian Exactly. First question an international buyer asks when considering an American sports property: Who is the US broadcaster?

[Lowell Conn @LpConn]

@FrontRowBrian There is a positive correlation between having a meaningful domestic rights deal and making good money internationally. The inverse is true too.

Robert Reich forgot the 6th and most common way:

Tempo Opening Night…

An absolute nightmare to attend. Not because of the basketball but because of the @cityoftoronto , @TTChelps , and @CocaColaClsm .

From the DVP and Eglinton it took 2 HOURS to get here.

My advice to basically everyone, be it a church, a business, a media outlet or a political organization: Be serious in an unserious world. The market for adult children is oversaturated. Reach out to the grown-ups.

Netflix has a lot to learn about Boxing.

[Netflix @netflix]

It's happening.

Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua. This autumn from the UK. LIVE only on Netflix.

@BenMulroney How is the project expected to be profitable if it needlessly absorbs double the labour costs?

[Lowell Conn @LpConn]

@RomanFisher__ Accountability is a fair exercise.

[Lowell Conn @LpConn]

@TorontoStar Evidently, sunlight factories will eclipse current industry. Beck and Nenshi clearly do not see which way the wind is blowing.

[Lowell Conn @LpConn]

This earns a follow.

[Brandon Gonez @brandongonez]

Two Canadian pilots died. Oil prices are hurting people’s pockets badly. Our economy is under attack and we’re focused on a language debate. What is really happening right now??

Let’s allow Air Canada’s CEO to apologize and let’s move on.

@Boxing_Tribune @ewboxing Archive does not drive subs but the value of Boxing archive can be considerable if leveraged correctly. I would imagine DAZN got non-exclusive rights to the archive such that Top Rank can continue to leverage it.
