Edmonton Elks President and CEO Victor Cui joins the program to talk through the work he’s doing in his new role repairing the “fractured” relationship between the Elks and their fanbase. We talk about growing the CFL game, working alongside the other CFL teams/ownership groups and what the biggest challenges are for him and the rest of the CFL moving the game forward into 2022.
We’re also joined by PointsBet Canada’s Nic Sulsky who fills us in on their recent partnership with the Ottawa REDBLACKS to provide in stadium sports betting during the CFL season. We also talk about using gambling and single-game sports betting to grow the CFL game not only in Canada, but down into the United States as well.
Jake Wieneke of the CFL Montreal Alouettes stops by to update us on his off-season regime and how he’s preparing for the 2022 CFL season. We also welcome onto the program Matt Lyons as we break down the week that was in the world of the XFL, including their new logo annoucement, a potential “bubble” or hub season, new XFL cities and head coaches.
