CFL Beat: Week 10

The Maestro - August 8, 2024August 6, 2024

Week one of vacation has been lovely as always. With the beautiful red sands of PEI so warm and friendly, we’ve made our way to beautiful Halifax to see family and buy hundreds of dollars worth of bulk liquor to get the wedding bar prepared. Sharkbait, I also have a

I'm leaving in just a few days for the East Coast for a whole month of vacation. I sure hope I'll be able to keep sneaking away for football watching - but that time difference, especially for watching those West Coast games, is killer - that 11 PM start time

Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: Hey, My Cable Sign-In Works!

Senor Weaselo - July 31, 2024July 31, 2024

So I can watch some team handball—Denmark vs. Argentina. Listen, Senorita Weaselo can watch all the swimming and gymnastics on the big-boy channel, but I remember what we played in gym class and I played a solid goalkeeper. (Denmark leads at the half.) I'd have more stuff, but the fantasy football

CFL Beat: Week 8

The Maestro - July 25, 2024July 23, 2024

I have just two days left of work this summer. If I can also get this stupid summer course knocked off soon, my vacation is then truly right around the corner. So, so close. If the weather holds, you'll probably catch me back for the second week in a row

I've almost made it through two weeks of summer camp, and as a treat, I intend to go to the REDBLACKS game on Friday night and drink a copious amount of beer while sitting on the Lansdowne hill. Buying a ticket is, of course, the best move, but there's a
