there won't be a press conference, I don't think. Something will be announced on their socials. Yesterday was the Board of Governors meeting, and today they'll finalize what the official statement is. I'd bet sometime this afternoon...

It would figure that this guy is an Albertan. Things continue to rage on out west here, and there are no signs of slowing down. It seems the province is willing to sacrifice as many people as necessary in the name of herd immunity.

Ottawa beat reporter....

Jeff Hamilton with a bit of a scoop. League aims to start no later than mid July with camps opening weeks before that. Determined to play 18 games even if they have to go into December... I know SF will likely harumph this and say "I'll believe it when I see it!!" but I desperately need some good news right now and I'm gonna cling to this hope of a 2021 CFL season...

Once again, Gen X/Y to the rescue.....smart enough to know "just ******* get it in me!!"

Tomorrow....lots coming tomorrow.

there was too much mixed-messaging regarding AZ vaxx. It's just ridiculous. For what the vaccine is trying to accomplish, it's every bit as good as the others. This narrative of AZ somehow being a "lesser" vaxx is crazy. Don't get caught up in all the efficacy numbers...

I've got an appointment for Moderna/Pfizer on Saturday night, but if I can get a AZ jab prior to that, I'll likely take it.... Alberta doesn't start taking 40+ appts till tomorrow morning so we'll see how it goes.

a peek at the likely message from tomorrow's announcement:

it's really starting to speed up now...more and more Canadians becoming eligible every week, it seems. And there'll be more vaccine brands coming on market soon, too. The JJ 1-shot is going to make a huge difference once it starts arriving...

I love it. Would absolutely love to move on as a league without the organizations always holding us back.

I'll never stop caring. I'll take every little shred of news. This league means everything to me.... I'll take whatever I can get.

I appreciate Hodge's positivity... It's needed at a time like this. Someone who actually cares about saving the traditions.

The only synopsis needed is: "John Wick With Saul Goodman"

So any thoughts on what the league will announce this week? Announcement coming Tuesday, by all accounts. Part of it will be the official postponement of the start of the season, but I'm gonna say that they'll announce a hard start date of Canada Day. Now, will that be TC begins then or first game of the season.... But that's my guess. They'll give us something "written in stone", so to speak, so we have something to look forward to....

You can't stop McJesus, but you have to limit him. The Jets are a much better overall team and SHOULD beat the Oilers without too much trouble, but CMcD can win a game all by himself, so you just never know...

B117 is the UK variant I believe....definitely dangerous for all ages. Not AS bad as Brazilian variant (P1) but still really bad...really contagious.

I'll look into that...thanks!

his line is always making something happen. Just all hustle, all the time. That's my kinda NHL player...

Now I'm lost on what contracts go for these days, but that seems good right?

wouldn't that be something if it was Jets vs Leafs for 1st in the division on the final night...

Lowry might be my favourite Jet......would love to see him around long term.

Moderna having supply problems and will be reducing shipments to Canada by approximately half, but Ottawa has struck a deal with Pfizer to more than cover the difference:
