Little do people know that one of America's largest earthworks projects lies amongst North Dakota corn fields...

The project is the Fargo-Moorhead Area Diversion, an ambitious plan to divert Red River floodwaters around hundreds of thousands of people via a new levee system, control structures, and an extraordinary 31-mile (50-kilometer) new channel.

*Looks inside*

It's a judicial decision that voters got no say in.

Let’s be real… we were all waiting to see how Tesla FSD 14.1.2 would handle NYC (Manhattan).

@01Ananto and I went on a 2-hour drive in his 2026 HW4 Model Y and wow did it not disappoint.

There are some insane moments in this 46-minute condensed video that blew both of our minds.

Honestly shocking that Tesla is waiting for 14.2 to push wide, because this drive on Mad Max already felt incredible.

Huge thanks to Ananto for making this video with me. Please check out the extended cut with extra Insta360 angles which he posted. He absolutely deserves a follow as well!

Want to know who @dave1233445574673827 is? Who you’re arguing with online most of the time? Who’s liking all those pro-Hamas posts?

Here’s your answer.

The trade is one for none.

Which is to say I’m exchanging my semi-retired TSN life of the last five years — doing the World Junior Championships, NHL Draft Rankings, a handful of Toronto Maple Leaf broadcasts, TradeCentre and Free Agent Frenzy — for a fully-retired life of doing absolutely nothing.

Well, nothing work related anyway.

Today’s Free Agent Frenzy is the last working day in a 48-year professional career that included stops at The Sault Star, The Globe and Mail, The Hockey News (twice), The Toronto Star, TSN, ESPN and NBC, amongst others.

It’s been quite a ride.

I’ll be 69 years old in August. I decided a few months ago it’s as nice a time as any to call it a career with the expiry of my current contract. If I had been so inclined to continue doing the World Juniors and draft rankings etc. at TSN, the opportunity was certainly there for me to do so. And I’m so grateful to TSN for that.

Honestly, though, I am looking forward to waking up on Christmas morning this year and NOT flying to Minneapolis-St. Paul for the World Juniors.

I’m also looking forward to doing more travelling with my wife Cindy; having more time to give my sons Mike and Shawn unwanted (and unneeded) advice; playing even more golf than I am now; and having my two wonderful grandchildren Blake and Gunnar running my show on a full-time basis.

After almost 50 years in the business, there are far too many people to thank individually, so I won’t even try to name any lest I leave some out.

Just know that I’ve been blessed to work for, work with and work against so many great people who gave me boundless opportunity, incredible support and intense motivation. The nearly five decades have gone by in the blink of an eye.

I certainly never set out to be the TSN Hockey Insider. It never occurred to me that I would work in television. All I wanted to be when I grew up was a hockey writer, to have a “job” to watch, write and talk about the game. You know, tell a few stories and try to capture the spirit of the thing.

Mission accomplished, I guess.

I couldn’t say goodbye now without a special thanks to everyone at TSN, past and present.

I first started showing up on the network in or around 1986-87. In the 1990s, I was working full-time hours at TSN but still had a full time newspaper job, too. Since 2000, 25 years ago, TSN has been my primary professional home.

It’s been a very special place on so many levels. The best part of TSN has always been the people. The best people doing the best work. What an honour to be one small part of the unsurpassed excellence that is TSN. Every time I’ve walked out of Studio Six at the end of Free Agent Frenzy on July 1, I’ve said to myself: “It doesn’t get any better than that.”

And it doesn’t. That’s especially true on this Canada Day because I’m so very proud to be a Canadian. 🇨🇦

I’m a very lucky guy. I owe the game of hockey, and all the people within it — the players, coaches, managers, executives, scouts, agents et al — so much; I owe my family and friends even more. 

Finally, thank you to anyone who has ever read, watched or listened to any of my work in any form at any outlet over the last 48 years. It’s been a privilege to share some information with you all, and try to have a few laughs along the way on social media or whatever they’re calling it these days.

I’ve cherished it all.

Fully Completely.

@Senators Sens fans! Happy Playoffs Eve! I just spent 24+ hours making what I truly think is the best Sens hype video ever. It’s 2.5 mins. If it gets you fired up for tomorrow, I’d love if you shared it:
