I’m a very harsh Kirk Cousins critic… but I’ll say he takes absolutely no blame for this loss. He got hung out to dry. He never had a chance.

Just got called a homophobic slur while reporting on a story here in Edmonton... DURING PRIDE MONTH! It's insane the hatred these people carry is so malicious they can't keep their thought to themselves. This is why we stand together. #PrideMonth #YEG

After 8 years of service, Fletcher is calling it a career. This good boy supported over 1,600 children while they attended court after surviving abuse. The first dog to ever accompany a child in a jury trial in Edmonton. Happy retirement, Fletcher! ❤️

This is what an “away” crowd looks like outside of Rogers Place during the playoffs. This young section of fanbase has so much energy, and for the very most part are very respectful. These playoff parties aren’t nearly as bad as that social media page would lead you to believe.

Without a doubt, firefighters were successful saving the most important buildings in the town. The fire hall, hospital and Jasper Elementary are still in great shape, meaning an eventual return to the community is still possible. When that will happen, however, still unclear.

Games under 50 rec. yds: Diggs = 4 Hopkins = 4 Metcalf = 5 K. Allen = 6 Evans = 7 (two games w/ only 2 yds) Do I really need to continue at this point? Lazy tweet. Jefferson is already one of the more dominant receivers in the league. Period.

I think Justin Jefferson had an AMAZING year... But let's not act like he's dominant already in 5 games he had less than 45 yards receiving. In the 5 Games where he had more than 120 yards receiving, 4 of the 5 teams had bottom 6 pass defenses in the NFL (pass yards allowed)
