🏈Redblacks: After nine seasons in the CFL, including five with the Redblacks, wide receiver Brad Sinopoli announced his retirement yesterday. The CFL’s two-time Most Outstanding Canadian won’t go far though: the former Ottawa Gee-Gee is sticking around the city as a community ambassador.

  • Meanwhile, the rest of the team is preparing for July’s training camp ahead of August’s season start. Check out the full schedule here and start planning your trip to TD Place. Lansdowne is waiting for us.

🏀BlackJacks: Elsewhere at TD Place, the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL)’s third season tips off tonight at 7 p.m. with an Ottawa BlackJacks home game against the Niagara River Lions. Though games are still closed to fans, you can watch online or listen to the amazing HannaH Sunley-Paisley and AJ Jakubec broadcast on TSN 1200.
