As I sit eating some almost forgotten, now room temperature soup that had to leave to get to a doctor’s appointment for two vaccines, I’m reminded of the concept of confounding variables.

I’ll only remember he shot someone in the face.

Why is everything a “tranche” nowadays?

As I mourn the #bluejays, my only consolation is I don’t have to see happy Yankees fans

Lots of questions re: next years #bluejays. Will Bo, Bassitt, Bieber return? Can the glue guys who emerged through the season repeat?

But top of my mind: will Sportsnet make a Roku app?

Nova Scotia Rocks. Straight crack.

Don’t worry, the #bluejays will be back 32 years from now

Springer, on the other hand, would pretend he didn’t get hit because he wants another Joe Carter moment #bluejays
Kirk. Would. Never. Fake. Getting. Hit. #bluejays

I’m totally confident in these #bluejays

#bluejays trying hard for that Joe Carter moment

The dodgers better score at least one more run, otherwise the game was decided after the first 3 pitches, and then what have we been doing for 3 hours? #bluejays

Blake Snell has great stuff, and the #bluejays love it

Two up, two gone. Pretty good start. 😂 #bluejays

If anyone hasn’t found it, you can stream the #bluejays game here instead of Sportsnet app: www.sportsnet.ca/mlb/article/...

I don’t have anger issues, but I bet at least a few screens are getting broken tonight due to Sportsnet failing during #bluejays
October 29, 2025 at 2:30 AM
I dunno, if the #bluejays scored three runs but Sportsnet crapped out and I didn’t see it, did it even happen?
October 29, 2025 at 2:25 AM
The #bluejays better score soon because eventually Brendon Little will be the only one left.

Scherzer goes peacefully, for once #bluejays

Attempting to do some comparison shopping on log splitters, and Canadian Tire specs are pretty much useless. One showing 50" (4+ feet!) max log diameter, another showing 3". 🤔
October 26, 2025 at 2:07 PM
Dodgers fell right into the #bluejays trap again, by scoring first
