So here's something; You know how it is often said that the Ottawa Rough Riders dropped that name in 1924 or 1925 in favour of Senators, despite evidence to the contrary?

Somewhere there is a person who is a Winnipeg Jets, LA Chargers. Ottawa Redblacks and Man United fan. Why even get up in the morning. I have one of those and it’s rough.

You don't often replace a great punter with an even better one - thank you to the Redblacks for their continuous inability to recognize talent

The accusation of shenanigans here surprises me somewhat. I thought we all kind of knew it was largely bullshit. 🤷‍♂️

The new #UFL teams for 2027 have now been revealed. We wait now for the UFL draft on November 18th and a release date on their helmets and uniforms. What branding do you like more?

I will never forgive those who chose to do away with decades of tradition. "The 2026 season has seen an average of 58.4 points per game - the highest scoring year since 1991 and 3rd-highest in league history. In 77 games there have been 472 TDs, an increase of 15% over 2025."

GOOD-BYE 55 - This week marks the final week in the CFL regular season which means it will also be the final time we see a couple unique features of the league, that will go away next year due to incoming rule changes. More from @TSNDaveNaylor: tsn.ca/cfl/video/2026/10/22/…

WATCH: Touchdown, Justin Hardy. He held on after a hard hit to score from three yards out for the Ottawa Red Blacks in their game Saturday with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, who won, 35-22. It was his only catch of the day which left him 87 yards short of 5.000 for his career. For the season, he had 90 catches, 1,126 yards and 7 touchdowns. 📹 CFL #PiratesInThePros🏴‍☠️

The Ottawa REDBLACKS have named Mike Morreale as club president. “This is about more than building a team that can win. It’s about building an organization that can compete for championships and give people in Ottawa a reason to feel connected to and proud of the REDBLACKS.” Morreale brings a unique combination of football credibility and executive leadership experience. He played 12 seasons in the CFL with the Toronto Argonauts and Hamilton Tiger-Cats, earning multiple CFL awards and winning two Grey Cups.

Hopefully good things will now be bestowed upon Ottawa with this hiring. The fans support the CFL team there & should be rewarded with a competitive team.

Having worked in the @CEBLeague with @mikemorreale18, I know first hand the passion and hard work he brings to the table every day. It’s been a tough season for @REDBLACKS fans, but I have no doubt Mike will bring everything he has to that organization. Congrats, Mike! 👊🏻
