The Super Bowl has more than twice the viewer numbers the Grey Cup captures in Canada...it's clear the CFL is Canada's maligned yet beloved (in the prairies by rednecks and farmers anyway) B-league...it clings to it's unique Canadian rules and patriotism but everyone knows two things...every CFL player and coach would leave for a solid NFL gig in a millisecond and Toronto 's ship (excuse the Argo pun there) has long set sail on the league...Toronto wants, deserves and would easily support an NFL franchise...but that would basically put a final nail in the CFL being even mentioned as a top tier pro league...The NFL will never come to Toronto as per the deal/gentleman's agreement they have with the CFL...the CFL should become a version of pro-hockey's AHL and feed talent to an affiliated NFL team and Toronto should get an NFL franchise...don't tell me MLSE and their millionaire buddies couldn't scrounge up $4 billion USD for a NFL team and a new stadium...the current Ontario gov't would pave the way in a path of gold interlock as well.

That can't be true -  I heard Johnny B interview Mojo Girls on the air

There’s a recurring pattern in broadcast media where on-air talent cultivates a provocative or risqué persona as part of the brand, fully embracing it while it serves their career interests. However, when the role or contract ends, that same conduct is often recast as exploitation or harassment. A local example out here would be Sue Tyler, who built her profile around that image for years, only to later reposition herself as a victim once the employment relationship concluded.

Apparently when MOJO Radio was a thing HR policy prohibited posting the MOJO Girls Calendar in the building. They they could be given away, but not looked at. 

 

The woman I've been with for over 20 years was a MOJO model...I had those girls on the air and on every show I hosted or produced either in studio or live on location when MOJO was at its height...when I did remotes for Monday Night Football games at the bars for example, there was always a MOJO model with me and I would sometimes include her in the promo...most of them were great, pretty ladies just looking to make some extra cash...as for the calendars...I had one hanging in my cubicle at 1 Dundas...no one said shit about it to me.

The Toronto Blue Jays could have reason to celebrate on Friday night.The Blue Jays can clinch a post-season berth with a win against the Kansas City Royals and losses by at least two of the Boston Red Sox, Detroit Tigers and Cleveland Guardians, per MLB.You can watch Friday night's Blue Jays game on Sportsnet and Sportsnet+, beginning at 7:40 p.m. ET / 4:40 p.m. PT.

Pretty much everything about Sportsnet is at a milquetoast, B-League level...from their cringey teleprompter reading 'sportscasters' to their studio intermission and halftime panel shows...it's all covered in cheap icing...so lame.

OMG this take is so fucken rich it's laughable...betting you cram content into you from 640, 1010 and CTVNews....all clearly right wing outlets based on their ownership and talent they put on the air...FFS 640's Greg Brady just ran as a conservative candidate, Ben Mulroney is conspiratorial propagandist and a more powerful right winger than Gordie Howe was, Alex Pierson and Jerry Agar would be at home on Fox News...what a joke.

The NHL season is 2 months too long...NHL playoffs should be best of 5 in the first round...and never have the NHL finals at the same time as the NBA finals....also, having a Canadian team in the final doesn't help with US ratings either....you get a New York Rangers vs Chicago Black Hawks final and I bet the U.S numbers double.

Mondays fucken suck....he's 100% right!

Every Canadian soccer team's (men and women) games that have World Cup, Gold Cup, FIFA or CONCACAF implications need to be fully accessible to fans on platforms most of them have access to...this is a matter of national pride and importance...the Canadian Soccer Association has a track record of fucking things up enormously and chasing dollars from OneSoccer, Fubo, etc, because of their idiotic management decisions over the years....same thing is happening with Toronto FC...they are alienating fans and thinking they can match European clubs with pay per view and subscription platforms...Canada and the MLS are not on that level.

640 is simply loaded with losing...Brady returns to shed some right wing tears with his MAGA listeners and Ben 'E-Talk PM's son' Mulroney will be eating leftover crow for a week...good on them.

This ad works well as it's hokey enough to resonate with a lot of Canadians, it's timed right with Trump about to hit Canada with even more tariffs and his 51st state bullshit and it's Mike Myers, hard to find folks that dislike a Canadian guy that played Shrek, Wayne's World and Austin Powers...agreed that these celebrity endorsements don't have the impact some people think they do...but I bet Gord Downie embracing Trudeau in 2016 didn't hurt Justin at all... https://globalnews.ca/video/2894695/were-in-good-hands-folks-gord-downie-thanks-pm-trudeau-for-attending-final-show

Should be replaced with "How to be an Influencer 101" - includes building your personal brand through bullshyt lies and testimonials, a lame ass podcast and website, building social media channels using AI and filters for content generation, to enhance your crap, and grow your bot audience, a Youtube channel, and how to make money through fooling your audiences with clickbait.

Game was over at halftime...then the halftime show was polarizing whether you hated it, liked it or loved it...I switched the channel halfway through the 3rd quarter...a bet a lot of people did...it was a brutal takedown, non-competitive game.

I thought Trudeau's speech was excellent...it hit the right tones and played on Canadian patriotism and sovereignty, our close ties with the USA and how we have stood by them in times of need, and the fact Trump started this and we cannot simply lay down to the orange buffoon and his MAGA cult morons...if you're a Canadian and still support Trump for this attack on our economy that could upend the lives of tens of thousands of Canadians, then fuck off and move your ass to South Carolina you traitor.

Vets know they got you by the ballz the second you walk in their door...how many people would simply put their animal down without first trying the hundreds if not thousands of dollars in remedies the vet says might or might not work...pretty much anyway you slice it a trip to the vet is a minimum $300 ordeal in many places, then it goes up from there....the visit, xrays, drugs, tests, special food that they control...they are playing on your emotions and it's fricken borderline evil.
