What exactly is that? Maybe they mean football analyst?

Job opening at Central Michigan wants this:

Ti-Cats were doing this a few years ago, adding to their coaching staff without violating the coaching cap by calling them "consultants".  I believe that is how they engaged Scott Milanovich originally.  Guess where Hervey was working at the time?

Third Annual Blue Bombers Girls High School Flag Football League Season Kicks Off

WINNIPEG, MB., April 1, 2026 – The Winnipeg Football Club is proud to announce the launch of the third annual season of the High School Girls Flag Football League, presented by Bell.

Continuing to build on the success of the last two years, the league has seen significant growth again this year, adding a fourth game night, with ten additional teams. In 2026, the league will see a total of 40 teams from various high schools in and surrounding Winnipeg.

Over the course of six weeks, more than 480 athletes will compete, showcasing their skills and passion for the sport.

"The growth of this league has been tremendous heading into its third year. Good luck to all the teams competing," said Wade Miller, President and CEO of the Winnipeg Football Club. "Bell's support of this program, along with their ongoing commitment to our amateur football programs, helps us break down barriers to participation and create more opportunities for young women in the sport."

"The league's year over year growth reflects the impact of collaboration to invest in the next generation of athletes in Manitoba and the future of the game. We wish participating teams every success as they take the field for a new season."

The league runs from April 6 to May 14, with games held every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. The season will culminate in an exciting championship event and select teams will have the unique opportunity to play during halftime of the Blue Bombers' game on May 29.

New in 2026, athletes from the league are invited to participate in a Media Day at Princess Auto Stadium, in addition to the inaugural Game Changers Leadership Conference on April 9th.

Nice to see the 4th line get one. PK in the 3rd. period saved our bacon. Decent road win, but giving up a 2 goal lead in the third was concerning.

Blue Jays with a nice bounce back win. Much better pitching tonight, and a lot of players chipping with the bats.

I'm most interested in what happens to the Canucks - a pretty sorry excuse for a professional hockey team right now.

- questionable management
- ditto ownership
- ditto coaching
- high-paying contracts
- last place in the league
- 11.6 Million cap hit on a player (Petterson) who scored 15 goals

Rumours Petterson will possibly be traded to the Hurricanes however the Canucks need to do something major to stop the bleeding.  Lack luster play and questions top to bottom indicate major changes should be coming.
