Dad of 2 amazing girls that are multi-sport athletes and great students. Leafs, Riders, Jays, and Broncos. CPA during the day time. my tweets are my own.
@jamienye Other thought is age will increase because middle of the pack players can now choose CHL to play at 18 and 19 and still play US college, and the stars may leave early like you said. Superstars in the league is one thing. 15s on a team with a bunch of 19s is another.
@jamienye It does still seem interesting that the NHL deemed this one unintentional? Is it because it was Utah’s first season (no bad press) and/or because it wasn’t the lead story on ESPN in the states and on radio talk shows?

Although she actually thinks spending the day in Banff with her closest friends is better than the living room in Regina watching hockey with her parents, cheers to this amazing young woman on her 19th birthday. #19 #proud
@TSNDaveNaylor If anything, at least they are using the STAR bond program so users of the stadium will ultimately pay over time as part of ticket sale taxes. Some new builds are pulling directly from regular taxes, Buffalo being one example.
@mark_mactavish@lucmull95 Honestly, I assume the Riders wanted to wait until week 2. Wasn’t the gameday situation a gong show this past year when the home opener coincided with the Mosaic Festival?
@BrittonGray Guessing the team/REAL wanted to avoid the Mosaic festival given the issues this past year. Bye week better than the champs starting on the road I think. What is weird is they also have a bye the final pre-season week so have two weeks off.
@GregOnSports@RPAthletes To note, it is in-season for CFL, offseason for NFL so that should be interesting. If a CFL player goes do they just join the team for the 2-week period? Do they get their game pay for the two weeks? Quite a different situation between the two.
@TSNDaveNaylor Likely None of these are attempted under new rules when you add 15 yards to the attempt. All would be pooch punts for field position. Boring.
@VINTAGESASKO@ObsidianSasky@Morley_Scott That’s correct. For sure will not be more points. If that is what they are trying to achieve, not the answer. There should be longer sustained drives and a higher ratio of touchdowns to field goals but scores likely down. Lots of pooch punts for field position.
