A little news. Today, I met with Adrian Sciarra, president of the @ottawaredblacks.com, and my new book, An Unlikely Story, will be in their merch shop at Lansdowne in time for their last game on Saturday. There are limited copies there right now, but if they sell out, they know where to get more.

AJ Jakubek reporting that Dustin Crum did not practice today due to head injury.

Tyries Adams may start for the RedBlacks.

I’ll never cheer for a head injury, but…

This is where a strong GM is needed. To sell (or just dictate) the priorities for the team these last few weeks. Development should be the only priority.

Love hearing AJ Jakubec get fired up about the #Redblacks refusal to play QB Tyrie Adams. Starts at 15:00 mark. Also, when asked postgame, coach Bob Dyce expresses no thoughts/no plans to start Adams next week.

The defiance is mind boggling. How is this in the best interest of the team? #RNation

@rottentomatoes.com doesn’t miss often - at least not both critics and audiences - but #Highest2Lowest is flat-out bad. Shockingly bad. Huge miss for A24 and Spike Lee. Yikes.
Screencap of Highest 2 Lowest, which (somehow) scored 84% from both critics and audiences.

The Ottawa Senators' path to success relies on Linus Ullmark.

Plus, on Ottawa's PK performance, Pinto's rich start to the season and more!

A friendly reminder to worried Senators fans: it’s a long season, and you’re never as good or as bad as one result. Here’s what we’ve learned about the Ottawa Senators in the first two games of 2025-2...

The Belleville Senators lost their second game in a row, falling 6-2 to Bridgeport. Of note:

· Carter Yakemchuk scored his first professional goal
· Hunter Shepard stopped 28 of 33 shots in his Sens debut
· Stephan Halliday leads the team in scoring, now with three points in two games
