Just A Bit Outside: The Premier Vancouver Sports Podcast

After a Week One loss full of mistakes, there were certainly a few BC Lions who did not know what the hell they were doing, as we recap the game against the Eskimos. If there was one man who did know what the hell he was doing, it was Canucks GM Jim Benning. Without access to a crystal ball, we look back at the Canucks draft and the positivity surrounding almost all picks, even if some fans don't agree. All that plus another installment of Garbage Time and Brendan has a message for the negative Canucks fans. You can't miss it - he says it more than once.

All that plus another installment of Garbage Time and Brendan has a message for the negative Canucks fans. You can't miss it - he says it more than once.

Sticking with our old school wrestling theme, we kick off the show with the musical stylings of The Great One. We look back at the 117th US Open, as well as Brooke Henderson's fourth career LPGA win, and of course a little baseball. With the NHL expansion draft finally done, we review what the Canucks may look like after losing Luca Sbisa, and how the Golden Knights roster looks. The BC Lions kick off their season this weekend, and we give our team analysis and predictions, plus the always glorious Garbage Time.

The Golden Episode! Of course it's gold Jerry, gold, as we congratulate ourselves a bit in addition to our usual self mockery. We even talk about sports! This week covers the upcoming US Open, the current state of the Seattle Mariners, and the sideshow the UFC has become. We also recap the NHL and NBA playoffs now that both are complete, before turning around 180 degrees in Garbage Time.

A shout out to the Muppets, as in this episode we salute Scooter Gennett for his four home run performance for the Cincinnati Reds. If you don't get the reference, look it up. The NBA and NHL playoffs are still happening - one is must watch and the other you wished you didn't have to watch. We discuss the Canucks hiring their assistant coaches, the Houston Astros dominance, and the French Open drawing to a close. All this and A-Rod in Garbage Time.

Maria Sharapova playing the French Open? Hard no. Mariners with a healthy pitching staff? Hard no. Correct NHL playoff predictions? Oh you better believe that's a hard no. This week we dive into the stand taken against a cheating tennis player, as well as the farce that is the NBA playoffs. We look back at round 2 of the Stanley Cup playoffs, including another Capitals collapse, as well as our conference finals picks. All this and more, plus our usual best and worst in Garbage Time.

It's the gift that keeps on giving, except you wish the gift would just go away. The return of LaVar Ball (aka Dick Ball) kicks us off before getting into the Canucks draft lottery balls and the poor attitudes that followed. We also look back at the first month of the baseball season, including early disappointments and stand outs. Double Coverage dives into playoff action for the NHL and NBA, where one of us forgets how to form proper sentences. As always, our usual best and worst in Garbage Time!

This week Geoff discusses his trip down to Seattle to see the Mariners and his inability to find the new hot menu item that is all the rage at Safeco Field. We also go in depth on the Vancouver Canucks hiring Travis Green as their new head coach, Nikita Tryamkin heading back to Siberia and the upcoming NHL draft lottery. After a stellar 2-6 record in his NHL playoff predictions, Brendan tries the do the impossible and improve on perfection. All this plus the NFL draft, NBA playoffs, and Garbage Time.

We begin this week's episode on a sad note, as we send condolences and discuss the tragic death of retired NFL tight end Todd Heap's young daughter. As hard as it is to move on from that, we discuss the tire fire that is the Toronto Blue Jays, the start for the Seattle Mariners, including a fantastic first three starts for Canadian James Paxton. In double coverage, we go in-depth on each of the eight first round playoff series and our "on point" predictions. All that and Geoff goes out on two major limbs in Garbage Time.

It's been a long time coming, as the Canucks season has officially ended, which means we start the autopsy. Who will the new coach be? Should we expect a busy off-season? Are Canucks fans and media ready to show the necessary patience for the road ahead? We discuss it all! But just because the Canucks are done, it doesn't mean hockey is over, so we make our first round playoff predictions. All this and a Masters recap, plus our always awesome Garbage Time!
