Guess we'd better start letting people vote as early as age 10.

I'm sure that sounds extreme, so 16 is a fair compromise.

I absolutely love that Levis Stadium plays Linda Ronstadt when a visiting team misses a field goal. #FTTB

I know this might shock you, but the goalies are the best players on the ice in a PWHL game.

Amid all the talk about Ontario test scores, there is not nearly enough talk about tests themselves.

Yeeeeugh! The Beatles' new AI mix of "Real Love" strips it of its dreamlike quality and ruins the song.

The circumstances aren't exactly the same, I know. But this - to me - carries part of the same stench as the Rod Bryden years of the Ottawa Senators.

I feel like it's only a matter of time until we hear "Well, we'll stay if we sell X number of season tickets."

I can only imagine all the posts from people mentioning famous Canadian superheroes like Wolverine, Deadpool, Anne of Green Gables and Batman
I made a joke about Canada not having superheroes on Threads and it's been two solid days of Canadians yelling at me.

Also, it turns out that the Canadians yelling at me about comics don't actually seem to know anything about comics.

I went away for a day and they're still going.

Ice cold.
actually throw in Kardinal Offishal or k-os also, they're always very happy to make that place not so blindingly white (especially since the biggest non-white Canadian name in there turned out to be both white and not Canadian)

The 49ers' injury bug has run out of football players, so it's moving on to my hockey team.
A difficult day for the Canadiens. Guhle and Newhook operated on.

Guhle gone 8-10 weeks with an adductor muscle tear.

Newhook gone four months with a fractured ankle.

A musically-inclined friend told me he picked up the new Wings two-disc compilation, a Paul McCartney release I'm skipping because it doesn't offer me anything I don't already have.

Newhook is lucky if that's his ankle. That looked like a torn ACL.
