Logo isn't bad. Nice and clean.

That logo should be on the helmets not antlers. It's a cool logo being wasted.

Sort of random but, if you cut the cord, you can subscribe to TSN for 6 months for 40% off. $60 for 6 months and you can catch all the Euros starting in June. Deal runs until June 30th, so you can wait until the end of the month to subscribe. 

Damn, just ordered my subscription on Friday.  😡

TSN is slooooooooooowly adding apps to TVs but, for the most part, you still need to "cast" the app from your phone. You can log on your computer and watch through a browser.

I would think there was some pressure on them. 

I don't mind it. Don't care really cuz not a fan of said team but Edmonton Elks isn't the worst. I mean we got Bisons and Moose here.

500 fans allowed at tonights Jets game is good news for attending live sporting events this year.

It's not available on my FireTV (yet) but it works well enough on the Amazon Silk browser my TV has.  I set it to desktop mode and I'm good to go.

Not sure how to embed a TSN video, but Lalji/Naylor talking about Return To Play with lots of interesting info....worth a click.

 

[JCon]

Thanks! That was actually somewhat informative. Some info is leaking out now and I can see some of the hurdles that they're facing. 

 

If you keep watching, Naylor and Smith talk about the USFL. It does just seem to be a rebranding exercise for the spring league. I'm far less worried about the spring league having an impact on the CFL. In fact, it's a great place to recruit from.

Biggie posted a picture on his socials of him training with his WBB helmet on and captioned it something like "time to get ready... #GameOn" 

I really think stuff is happening!

The Spring League isn't paying their coaches.

If you haven't been to a pro camp, you pay the league to play!

My son  considered trying out in the TSL. Until he found out he'd have to pay. He knew his chances to get to the NFL were slim at best & none left town so he never tried.

What an embarrassment of a league.

Male elk have a habit of urinating all over themselves to make themselves more attractive.  Seems appropriate.

What's the beef? Apps are so futuristic. Almost Buck Roger-ish. TSN is slowly getting into the arly 20th century by adding cameras to their broadcasts instead of smoke signals.

 

The CFL on TSN. Brought to you by Conestaga Wagons. Visit your local Conestaga Wagon dealer & go out for a test ride. "Conestaga Wagons... When you just gotta get there!!"
