Tay does a deep dive on still supporting the Blue Jays after they welcome back Osuna and struggles with forgiveness

All that plus balance in the CFL, WTF Montreal and the wonderful world of E sports

With the midway point of the year having come and gone, the gang takes the time to check in on their annual prognostications. Will Johnny Manziel ever suit up for the Ticats ? Will TFC repeat as MLS champs? Was Tay right for once after constantly picking the Washington Capitals? The answer to most of these questions is “You probably shouldn’t listen to us”

Well, still keep listening to the podcast just don’t ya know… use this to gamble

All that plus Marks Tavaras hard on, LeBron moving west to face the Golden State Allstars, and England getting a little head of themselves in the world cup

Tay gets weirded out by grown men crying. Mark shamefully admits he didn’t support his fellow asians and Tyler continues to be the only one who knows whats going on

Chris gets excited dreaming of his new Tavares Jersey and makes a bet for the next Scotch Sporting day. The gang also talks CFL, Tay’s marketing suggestion for the Argos and RIP Ricky Ray

All that plus Johnny Football, CFL ratings and even more hookers

its a dark time for sports with a repetitive NBA, a free falling blue jays team, and a hockey finals that no one wanted. So the gang has no choice but to watch the CFL.

They keep the sadness going when they touch on the fact Osuna is dead to them, Cano cheated his way to victory and then get into a heated debate about whether or not Joey Votto speaks the #truth or is he a bad Canadian

All that plus how Darian Durant must have woken up one morning and realized he’d actually have to PLAY in Winnipeg

All is quiet on the Scotch Sporting front with just Mark and Tay to recap the week in sports. But don’t worry, that just means they can make outlandish claims and push their own agenda without anyone to stop them! New playoff format? Yup! Cleveland Browns Draft analysis? why not! Shortening the MLB season? of course! They’re joined by Mr Peanut to talk basketball playoffs, the raptors and why they just need to believe in themselves

Just Tyler, Chris and Mark again without their leader… so we’re winging it again! Did someone say #Playoffs ?
