It’s Thursday Night Football! Let’s do this! One question: who the hell are Bleed America? I stopped following Canadian rock after Platinum Blonde broke up (the first time).
This game is starting out great! A slugfest between two up-and-coming powerhouses. A back and forth game with plenty of offense. Love it. Whoops. That looked like it smarted. Okay, game over.

It would not matter if you used a bunch of extras from Mad Max: Fury Road, the CanAm Spiders barrelling down the open road will never look like anything but the geriatric scooter gang that chased George Constanza on Seinfeld.
This game was boring.
Yikes! TSN loading up on the hot blondes for SportsCentre. Well done, sirs. By the way, I’ve always wanted to point out that TSN deserves some credit for changing SportsCenter to SportsCentre for Canada. Everyone knows that the correct spelling of center is the wrong spelling.
