August 01, 2022 TCA Ep997: The Toronto Blue Jays & Boston Red Sox At The MLB Trade Deadline, The Deshaun Watson Suspension, CFl Scheduling, The Ottawa REDBLACKS Get A Win And UFC 277 Fallout
Welcome inside another work week as we move through your summer and down the road towards episode 1000 of Tall Can Audio. The news that it’s a short week is every bit as welcome as today’s co-host Steve Bunda.
Make sure you help out the show by leaving us a rating and a review there inside your podcast app. It just takes a second but helps us out a ton.
Plenty on the agenda today with Bunda including the usual craft beer chatter, thoughts on what the Toronto Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox will be looking to do before Tuesday’s MLB Trade Deadline, the incredibly disappointing 6 game suspension for Deshaun Watson of the Cleveland Browns, whether the CFl should look at adding more Sunday games, the Ottawa REDBLACKS finally getting their first win over the Toronto Argonauts, fallout from UFC 277 and plenty more.

Really fun show for you today as we’re joined by friend of the show Graeme Nichols - better known to many as The 6th Sens - to take a look at a wild week across the NHL as free agency gets underway.

And of course we later bring it back home to discuss the Ottawa Senators trading Matt Murray to the Toronto Maple Leafs and just what Kyle Dubas might be thinking, the Sens’ acquisitions of Alex DeBrincat and Claude Giroux,, the last time the nation’s capital has seen a buzz like this around their team and plenty more thoughts on both ends of the Battle of Ontario.
