I always get a good chuckle out of This Week in Unnecessary Censorship, but when this one got to the part about the UFC champion I thought I was going to cry. I was going to start the embed at that segment, but really, just watch the whole thing. It’s another case of comedians making …

Oh, So You Like Soccer, Do You? Well Then How’s About You Show Me Your Balls!
I’m sure the Elon Musk factor explains a lot of this (his AI does think it’s Hitler and that that’s a positive, after all), but it’s hard to imagine how we got from where we started to where we finished here. A Toronto mom says things took an unpredictable turn when her 12-year-old son asked …

You Ruined Everything! BOOOOOOOOO!
I enjoyed this. Enjoyed it a lot more than I enjoyed how the damn World Series turned out, that’s for sure. Thanks a lot, Freeman. Such a clown. We never thought we'd cheer for @FreddieFreeman5 either, but here we are. He's grown on us. Kind of like @VancityReynolds' sweater. 😉 Help Ryan Help @SickKidsNews. Donate …
But Is His Woodworking?
The Score did a fun (depending on your perspective at least) little roundup of some of the stranger injuries in sports. I wasn’t sure whether or not I was going to post it, but then this happened. Bryce Mitchell (2018) Don’t stick a power drill in your pocket: That’s the lesson UFC fighter Mitchell learned …
the Following Goofy Sponsorships Are Brought To You By…
Every bit of a sports broadcast is sponsored. Penalty kills, powerplays, calls to the bullpen, the broadcast booth…I’m used to that. But hearing on a Bluebombers game the other day that “Doug Brown’s colour commentary is brought to you buy…,” that was a new one. Caught me off guard so much that I immediately forgot …

Some Things I Wrote Down
I thought I was finally starting to get a bit better at the posting thing again, but I’ve hit another wall, it seems. So maybe I’ll try jotting some stuff down and posting it when it feels right. Making myself do this in the usual ways hasn’t worked in years, so maybe this will. It’ll …
Just Call It The CFNFL And Get It Over With
The CFL announced a bunch of rule changes yesterday that will be phased in over the next few years and I’ve gotta tell ya, I don’t think I like ’em much. Ok, so maybe that’s not totally fair. I’m sure some of it will be fine, and perhaps even good. If the play clock can …

Why Does Larry Mellott Sound So Young Now?
For a lot of reasons, I’ve been way more behind on even more things than usual for quite a while now. One of those things, I have just come to discover, is that Larry Mellott retired from calling Guelph Storm games at the end of last season. Congrats on a great run, Larry! It won’t …

Bless You, Joe!
I have no idea how you replace someone like Joe Bowen, but Rogers has about a year to figure it out. Yes, we’ve hit another day I thought would never come. Sinatra said it bestAnd now the end is nearAnd so I face the final curtainMy friend I'll say it clearI'll state my case of …
Ba Da Ba Ba Ball
Man. Why can’t this fella ever be my delivery guy? Half the time it’s all the ones around here can do to get it all the way up to my apartment rather than just dumping it in the unsecured vestibule and hoping for the best. Officials just stopped the Loyola Chicago-Duquesne game because an Uber …
