CFL field is getting shorter. Posts moving to back of end zone. That should promote touchdown attempts in the middle of the field. Those changes coming in 2027. Change in how play clock works coming next season. Also to score a rouge, ball must now be playable in end zone.

The NHL puts out a printed guide which, in my opinion, is hot garbage. The Canes, bless them, have an audio pronunciation guide on their PR website where you can hear the players saying their own names, which is the gold standard. If I know the team's PA person, I'll text them in a pinch.

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today. Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.
