Fantastic! St.James' claim to fame for sure.

If there's any Amazon Prime users in the crowd, Homecoming with Julia Roberts is fantastic. Premiered last month from Mr.Robot creator Sam Esmail & it def has similar vibe to that show. But it's cleaner with a less clunky storyline... each episode is a short & concise 30 mins whirlwind. The cast is fantastic, led by Roberts. I'm even more a fan of Bobby Cannavale, Shea Whigham and Lip from Shameless. This awesome review called the show a mystery box drama which I think describes it well.

How do you leave your house every day? Agreed. Only so much sports & entertainment dollars to go around in a town < 800,000 Frugaltobans. Already one new pro team coming in 2019, too.

The whole league seems to be coming together nicely, minus the kerfuffle in Ottawa. Open tryouts are in Winnipeg Oct.18 & 19. I hope they've got lots of heaters!

LOVE Underdogs. Big fan of Monday's deal; beer, burger & fries for $10. Not a standard burger, it's a weekly special, fully loaded. ...maybe that site isn't cursed after all. Has it actually been 1 year since the last one?!?! Don't get me wrong, NOT complaining. I swear it's been < 12 months since the last Burger week. Or is this like that Sinbad genie movie from the '90s?- Around the League: 2018 Season

Most memorable sports broadcasting moments in my life: 1) Chipman, 2011. "Today, on behalf of my family, I'm thrilled beyond words...." 2) Bob Cole's call on a Sakic goal at the 2002 Olympics, Gold Medal game. Jooooeeee Sakic! 5-2 Canada! Surely that'll be enough now. 3) Wittman's call 9.84 seconds!- Around The NHL 2018/2019
