We're down to the final three games of the 2024 CFL season - I certainly hope we have some entertainment left here. I can't think of a better way to celebrate turning 32 this weekend - hope you join me in double-screening your football between JV and CFL action on

We made it! The playoffs are here! It's one of my favourite times of year for football; one of the only things that I don't like about the tweaks to the new CFL playoff scheduling, which was re-introduced last year, is that I can't keep dual-screening NFL RedZone and the

The playoff picture is now almost set - save for two final important games that will determine the winner of the West Division, and an always-valuable first-round playoff bye! We have one "meaningless" week of football - but I do hope all the same that it's mildly entertaining. The final

A quiet week for general CFL stories to share. We'll cut right to the chase and jump straight into it, I think. In league news this week: It looks like Ottawa may have starting QB Dru Brown back this week against Toronto; he suffered what's believed to be an ankle injury

I woke up this morning and didn't have to deal with the flood waters of Hurricane Milton. That makes my week better than a minimum of three million other people's weeks. So that's pretty cool. As always, our best wishes to everyone dealing with this terrible storm right now -

With five weeks to go in the regular season, there's much to be decided in the playoff picture still. Ottawa and Winnipeg both have a chance to clinch a spot this week, but after that, there's still lots of intrigue still - especially in the chaotic West Division. I look

I didn't get to watch a lot of football last weekend due to a crazy 14-hour roundtrip to go pick up my car at a dealership five hours away from home... between almost being late for a long train ride, a gnarly hill walk, and a key fob with a

September may honestly be the perfect month. With the back-to-school routine now established and with football Sundays in session, I can also now fill out my Fridays and Saturdays perfectly. Some people tell me the weekend weather is beautiful, but as all good football fans know, I have no idea

The NFL is back tonight! Yahoo! Very exciting! I'll be watching all of it, as we all love to do here. I'm just glad the the CFL has mostly come to their senses about game scheduling during the fall season when the big league is back in session; they're finally
