Watched Dutchy on ITV as a teen...
Wrote for him on SportsDesk in the 90s...
Anchored with him on SportsCentre...
I can't explain how much he meant to so many stages of my life.
Dutchy will never be forgotten.
I know he’s moving, but where’s

comparison - Avg Yards/Attempt, Yds/Completion, Pass Yds/Game, and Pass TD’s, etc. Boring is a judgment call, which many would disagree on. But no downfield passing is factually incorrect. 🤷♂️
Can confirm. Early last night I asked our operator to turn down the crowd noise in my headphones.
“It’s all the way down, DT. That’s the noise coming from outside your headphones.”

Man, that Pinball scrum was bad🧵
Says “Good enough isn’t good enough” about handling these situations. Then he says “I don’t know all the details” of the accusations.
As the GM he should be intimately familiar with it by now. Where he’s at is certainly not good enough
Signed mortgage papers this week. Turned down their offer of mortgage life insurance for $628/month. My wife and I have a regular term policy—with more coverage— for 1/5th the cost.
Banks are really out to get us all.

...thank you for teaching that idiot a much-deserved lesson. You deserve nothing but praise for protecting the sanctity of your workplace.
So proud to see that reporters today didn't lead with this nonsense.
On one level the question presumes that women are prey and players are predators unable to focus on their most-important work week because of their base instincts. It's offensive, and good riddance.
How did no one ask the

PLEASE let the Alouettes wear their red alternate uniforms and the Bombers wear their home royal blues in the grey cup. Would be an exceptionally good-looking colour v colour game in the biggest game of the year.

If you don't hold MBT to the CFL's COVID protocols, how do you explain that to Ja'Gared Davis, Kenny Stafford and other players who missed games?
It sucks, but either you're serious about your COVID protocols or you're not.
Bombers Running Back Brady Oliveira wins the CFL Most Outstanding Canadian award!
Oliveira was the first player in a decade to amass more than 2,000 yards from scrimmage. He led the league in rushing and total touchdowns.
Oliveira got 57 of the 61 votes.

The line “I will not be commenting on this matter again” is troubling. Especially when it’s clear Marino didn’t write this.
He needs to answer questions when he returns from suspension.
Vernon Adams being named the Top Performer for a game in which the CFL's Director of Officiating says Adams should have been ejected...that's a bad look.
MBT needs to be better. If you don’t like cameras being there in your worst professional moment, I suggest:
1) Don’t lose.
2) Find another job that’s not on TV.
Trash move by the

. Those cameras are 25+ pounds and you can do some real damage to the camera op by pushing them. You don’t get paid to play football without TV deals. Just because you couldn’t get your job done doesn’t mean you can prevent the cameraman from doing theirs.
As a guy who's going back on radio tomorrow after vacation, I'd like to thank Boomer Esiason. That anti-CFL comment will fill my 2.5-hour

I feel like that take is from someone who doesn't live in the constant asphalt/cement malarkey that is a metropolis.
In big cities, parks (any grass space really) is such a relief.
One of the oddest (and most unnecessary) penalties I've ever seen in a football game.
Saskatchewan's Pete Robertson celebrates a drive-killing incompletion with the... headbutt on Zach Collaros.
Robertson wasn't ejected, somehow.

1. UEFA (the governing body of European football) mandates a limit on foreign players (and protects spot for domestic players)
Some thoughts:
1) Waiting till we don’t work for the same company to take shots at me *chef kiss*
2) All stats are “made up”
3) Steve Daniel IS the best. Ask him what he thinks of my work
4) No, I won’t stop
5) If you’d like me to explain the stat to you, Dave, just ask.
Just watched the Nick Marshall punt return again. That was a helluva chasedown and tackle by Shayne Gauthier.
He was at the far hashmark when he realized Marshall had it and took the perfect angle to cut him off.
Maybe saved the game.
Bombers announce a 2-year extension for GM Kyle Walters. Great news for Bombers fans.
As well, Ted Goveia and Danny McManus has signed new contracts.

At least 80 Bombers players together for an informal workout this morning.
It looks a lot like a regular camp practice, but being led by vets.

Bombers announce they’ve agreed to a 1-year deal with Rasheed Bailey. Safe to say he adapted well to wideout—career highs in catches, yards and with 9 TD!
This one legit makes me 😢
For multiple seasons Jeffcoat got pressure on the QB more than anyone else in the CFL. Just a joy to watch rush the passer (and mix in an occasional zone dog*)
Remembering all the hate I got (including the woman who said: “I hope your wife swallows because we don’t need any more like you”) for suggesting Duron wasn’t the top receiver in the CFL...
At what point does the league just declare Grey Cup Sunday to be "Ja'Gared Davis Day"?

Literally every year his team is in the Grey Cup. Incredible.
So happy for

earning a 3-year deal, and getting guarantees in it, for his hard work.
The smile he had when he talks about playing in his home town is a treat.
#Bombers
Whenever I need a chuckle I always like to remember that Chris Jones played his star receiver at corner for 5 weeks because GM Jones didn’t have a cornerback on the PR.
Per the CFL transaction wire Lucky Whitehead is moved to the Bombers Game Roster for Thursday.
That indicates he’ll make his (re)debut for the Bombers Thursday against his previous team, the BC Lions.
