Now that I'm back living in SW Ontario, it won't be hard for me to go try the authentic versions of both (once Trump is no longer president).

I'm pretty sure what I'm about to say actually disqualifies me from having an opinion but...based on the Chicago style pizza I ate in Orlando a decade ago, and the the Detroit style pizza I just ate in London On, Chicago pizza wins in a landslide.

I did buy a pair for my daughter though because she is obsessed with this brand of skates and they are normally $120

Winners really wants me to relive my childhood (the roller skates are $18 but not my size 🙁)

With .62, Valour are also on track to be worse than Edmonton's .71. Vancouver are just on track to be even worse. Quite the season 2025 is shaping up to be.

I'm putting all of my positive vibes for the next week into an Italy win over England. ☝️🙏

I'm not sure about the accuracy of these half-time stats for #HFXvAFC. With 55 first-half offside calls, they would have had to have been near constant 😂

I wish they would turn up the field noise on this #HFXvTOR broadcast.

In the previous 28 games, going back to July 7 of last year, Valour has won 6 games. Only 1 was an away game. The last away win was almost a year ago (July 28, 2024).

I’m really hoping today will be the first away win of this season. 🤞🏻

It's a lot to go through in one year, and an incredible amount to achieve. I'm so glad you are still here!

I was going to say I can't believe they didn't mention the free hats in any of the pre-game promotion, to try to entice people to come. But I can totally believe it. 🤦‍♀️
