Stewart Johnston must have hated the Buffalo-Denver NFL game.

The final minute of each half took 15+ minutes of real time to play.

Hamilton Tiger-Cats have signed 🇨🇦 OL Chris Kolankowski to a 1-year contract.

Incumbent centre Coulter Woodmansey is a pending free agent. Woodmansey was an all-star in 2025 but he shifted to guard in the playoffs due to erratic snaps.

More than 20 mm of rain this past weekend combined with high tides led to localized flooding adjacent to the Fraser River. This section 👇 was the worst that I encountered for debris with several large logs across the trail into the picnic area.

OTD in Jets History Jan 5, 1978. Perhaps the biggest night for the WHA Jets as they faced the Soviet Nationals. ‘Hot Line’ of Hull, Nilsson and Hedberg dominated in a memorable night at the Arena. Bobby with a hat trick, Ulf two goals/2 assists and Anders 2 assists in 5-3 victory
