On May 10, 1981, Montreal Expos right-hander Charlie Lea pitches the first no-hitter in the history of Olympic Stadium. Lea, the first French-born pitcher to hurl a no-hitter, strikes out eight batters and walks four in the second game of a doubleheader, as the Expos beat the San Francisco Giants, 4-0.In 2010 Lea was asked what he remembered about the final out of the game, it ended with a fly ball of the bat of Giants first baseman Enos Cabell. Lea said “It was a slider a little bit away from him,” he went onto say, ” I don't know if it was up or down but he hit it off the end, a little lazy fly ball to center. Dawson really didn't have to move out of his tracks. Andre was a fairly emotionless guy. When he caught it and and immediately threw his arms in the air and started jumping up and down, me seeing his emotion, it was something special.”Only three pitchers tossed no-hitters for the Montreal Expos franchise, Bill Stoneman did it twice in 1969 and 1972, and Dennis Martinez pitched a perfect game in 1991.

As the 100-day Olympic Review is underway, Ballymore has become the focal point in the Brisbane 2032 stadium debate. CEO of Queensland Rugby Union, Dave Hanham, told Sam Leckie on Wide World of Sports, "We presented to the 100-day review committee about the legacy that we want to leave with Ballymore." "You're going to create a home for women's rectangular sport, another high-performance centre of excellence, and we're confident if we can come out of this 100-day review maintaining that position as an Olympic venue, that will only bode well." "Our view is there's a need, irrespective of the Olympics, but the Olympics can actually add a little bit more value to it as well," Mr Hanham continued.

Australia's host cities for the expanded 24-team Rugby World Cup in 2027 have been announced. Sydney's Olympic Stadium will host the final AND the two semi-finals, plus two of the quarter-finals. Brisbane will host the other two quarters, but Melbourne is the big loser...hosting only nine matches, including two of the 'Round of 16' showdowns.

There has been a lot of debate around the capacity of a potential new stadium in Brisbane for the 2032 Olympics. Some say it should hold at least 80,000 people, while other believe a 50,000 or less seat stadium would suffice. Former town planner Marian Wheeler told Shane Doherty on 4BC Summer Drive, "If we had an 80,000 capacity stadium, we would have the third largest cricket stadium in the world and we would have the second largest AFL venue in Australia." "This is a very, very large stadium, which is way beyond the justification provided by the level of usage we have from patrons at the Gabba."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There has been widespread debate about the plan for Brisbane's 2032 Olympic stadium, but in light of the new review all fingers are pointing at Victoria Park. Sue Bremner, former Deputy Lord Mayor David Hinchliffe and their friends want to Save Victoria Park. Ms. Bremner told Shane Doherty on 4BC Summer Drive, 'Brisbane has the least amount of green space out of any capital city in Australia. That blew me away when I found that statistic.' 'We need that green space to breathe, for the whole of Brisbane to breathe.' Mr. Hinchliffe told Shane Doherty on 4BC Summer Drive, 'I can't believe that in the year 2025, this big, beautiful, international city that's about to show itself off to the world is contemplating ripping up, bulldozing a precious piece of parkland.'See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's difficult to know what to make of Erik Ten Hag's Manchester United. We know they're not going to win the league, but can you honestly make a solid prediction beyond that? In the Europa League, it'll be tricky to finish the first phase outside the top eight, but with three points from the first three games it's now not unthinkable. Strangest of all; at the end of ninety minutes in Istanbul, the happiest in the stadium seemed to be the one complaining about not getting a penalty. West Ham at the Olympic Stadium next; not too many happy memories from that ground, or are there? Luckily, we do actually find our happy place precisely 20 years ago, when Arsenal's 49-game unbeaten run ran headlong into an immovable Phil Neville and the slice hit the man.

September 29, 1954 - Willie Mays makes his famous running catch off the bat of Vic Wertz in game one of the World Series. In the eighth inning with a 2-2 tie and men on 1st and 2nd, Wertz slammed a 420 foot shot to the cavernous center field of the Polo Grounds. Mays was playing shallow, since Giants pitcher Don Liddle was a groundball pitcher, and had to turn his back to the infield sprinting for the outfield wall. Mays made an over the shoulder catch and a quick turn firing the ball to the infield holding Larry Doby at 3rd base and preserving the tie. As much as has been made of the catch, Mays himself did not consider it the best defensive play he ever made.September 29, 1974 - Lou Brock steals his 118th and last base on the final day of the season setting the record for steals in a single season. Ricky Henderson would break that record in 1982 with 130 thefts.September 29, 1978 - Jim Rice doubles and singles against the Toronto Blue Jays in Fenway Park. Rice is the first American Leaguer to amass 400 total bases since Joe DiMaggio in 1937.September 29, 2004 - MLB officially announces that the Montreal Expos franchise will move to Washington, DC in 2005. Hours after this, the Expos play their final game in Montreal, a 9 - 1 loss to the Florida Marlins before a crowd of 31,395 at Olympic Stadium.September 29, 1957 Ted Williams becomes the oldest batting champ when the 39-year old finishes the season with a .388 average.

Rugby podcasters Brett McKay and Harry Jones are joined on The 8-9 Combo by New Zealand Herald Chief Sportswriter Liam Napier for a trans-Tasman deep-dive into the surprisingly tight first Bledisloe Test of the year in Sydney on the weekend just gone, and what is now likely to eventuate in the return bout in Wellington this weekend coming. Whilst Sydney Bledisloe Tests have often been fairly evenly split in terms of support for both the Wallabies and All Blacks, the 31-28 result in that perhaps for the first time in a long time, both set of fans walked away from the Olympic Stadium reasonably satisfied. And now moving to Wellington, where NZ's record in recent years isn't great, there's life in this series yet.

Richard shares insights into his diverse career and the challenges of balancing multiple roles. He discusses the importance of networking, resilience in business, and the value of physical well-being in maintaining a positive mindset KEY TAKEAWAYS The Institute of Directors has made efforts to increase diversity within its membership, particularly focusing on increasing female representation and engaging underrepresented ethnic groups. The Institute of Directors operates on three key pillars: connect, develop, and influence, guiding its activities and initiatives to provide value to its members. The organisation has shifted towards a more member-led approach, encouraging members to contribute, represent, and engage with the organisation's activities and policy discussions. Networking has been highlighted as a key aspect of success, with Richard emphasising the importance of building relationships, attending events, and leveraging the network for opportunities. BEST MOMENTS "I sometimes wonder, and I've tried to shed off some roles over the years, but things keep coming back." "I bumped into my predecessor at the IOD at an event in Carlisle Airport and she started talking to me about what a membership organisation was all about." "I think the first thing when I started the business, it was all focused on the business." "I had no idea how troubled and how difficult some of the circumstances that some of the young people who were helped by the Trust have come from."   This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life.

Valarie Allman is reigning Olympic champion for the women's discus and has also won bronze and silver at the last two editions of the World Championships.She tells The Warm Up Track how she and her coach figured out ‘the master of all puzzles' to win Olympic gold in Tokyo. Valarie explains how, starting out, they sought to break the mould of how previous US throwers had prepared for global championships, and that strategy was to face her main rivals as often as possible on the circuit. But, having succeeded in that, the pandemic then took away that opportunity to compete.Valarie says that actually helped her fall back in love with the sport – all of which set up her Olympic gold medal winning season in 2021. She tells us how it felt silly telling herself she was going to win Olympic gold – but how, after a while, those affirmations began to feel authentic.Young Valarie was a dancer, so what was it like to be around the TV show ‘So You Think You Can Dance' at weekends, and then being back in Middle School during the week? Also find out how the prospect of a spaghetti dinner encouraged her to try out for the discus in High School and what it meant the day she could throw as far as the prairie dog hole on the school field. Plus, how having an older brother helped develop her competitiveness, and which Frank Sinatra song she's really taken to heart.Image: Valarie Allman of Team United States celebrates with her countries flag after winning the gold medal in the Women's Discus Final on day ten of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games at Olympic Stadium on August 02, 2021 in Tokyo, Japan.

Montreal's Olympic stadium's new roof will cost tax payers nearly a billion dollars. Is it time to let the concrete relic die?

Pope Francis hosted the inaugural World Children's Day, a Vatican initiative held from May 25 to 26 at Rome's Olympic Stadium and St. Peter's Square. The event drew around 50,000 children spanning more than 100 nationalities and featured conversations between the young participants and Pope Francis. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and actor Roberto Benigni were also in attendance. With the event, the pope hoped to raise awareness about children's plight in war, promote global peace, care for the environment and empower the younger generation.  On the show, producer and guest host Ricardo da Silva, S.J. and veteran Vatican reporter Gerard O'Connell discuss this unique event and the Vatican's ongoing efforts to foster peace and dialogue among warring factions worldwide. Later, Gerry reflects on “20 Days in Mariupol,” the award-winning film he saw at the Vatican. The documentary, screened as part of a special event hosted by the British and Ukrainian embassies to the Holy See, exposes the atrocities committed by Russian forces in Ukraine. It highlights the horrors of war and underscores the crucial role of journalists in uncovering the truth.

In this Epsiode, for as long as Montreal's Olympic Stadium has existed, so has the controversy. The latest news, however, is outright lunacy! The majority of people are triggered by Tucker Carlson's upcoming interview with Putin but shouldn't this be something we should all be watching?

A compelling Catalan derby ended with the points heading back to Girona as the surprise LaLiga leaders beat Barcelona 4-2 at the Olympic Stadium. Míchel's side are now two points clear of Real Madrid, seven ahead of Barça and playing some of the best football in Europe. But what about Barça? They had 31 shots against Girona -- is it as simple as taking their chances? And why are they conceding so many goals? It's impossible to avoid the Xavi-Míchel comparisons, too, when you see the latter's work and how he has his team playing. Is it fair to compare them? Or do the demands at Barça nullify the debate?Support the show

It's September 24th, 1988 -- a warm, sunny and dry day in the Olympic Stadium in Seoul, South Korea. It also happened to be the final of the men's 100 metre sprint to decide the Olympic champion and world's fastest man. The top contenders, Carl Lewis from the United States, and a Canadian sprinter named Ben Johnson, lined up in lanes 3 and 6 respectively in one of the most highly anticipated races of the year. The gun goes off -- and almost immediately Johnson had a step on every other runner, including the defending Olympic gold medalist from the US. By 50 meters it was clear that nobody could keep up with the Canadian runner. As Johnson approached the finish line, he iconically raised his hands in victory, pointing his right index finger to the sky and then to stands toward thousands of screaming fans. With a time of 9.79 seconds, Ben Johnson had completely smashed his own World Record and was now an Olympic champion. Three days later, Johnson was stripped of his gold medal and world record by the International Olympic Committee after he tested positive for the banned performance-enhancing substance stan-o-zolol.   Why am I telling you about an Olympic final that happened over 35 years ago? Well, the events that would transpire after the IOC announced that it would strip Johnson of his gold medal and world record, would send shockwaves through the Canadian sport system – the reverberations of which would be felt in our cultural, political, and social systems as well as our collective memories. Johnson's disqualification spurred something of what sociologists might call a moral panic regarding the unethical grip that had apparently taken hold of Canadian sport – a deviation from the stereotypical perception of Canada as a wholesome, equitable, and polite geopolitical nation. And perhaps most relevant for this talk today, I argue that this was a fundamental precursor to the current moment that we find ourselves in Canadian sport – a moment, as I hope to convince you, that is riddled with harm and abuse. In this episode, Derek walks us through why Canada needs a judicial inquiry into harm and abuse in sport and, more importantly, why that's nowhere near enough to give justice to survivors. If we want to do justice for survivors of harm and abuse in Canadian sport, we need a judicial inquiry. But that's nowhere near enough. We also need to act, and we must act now, to ensure there are effective mechanisms for oversight, accountability, and, perhaps most importantly, reparation for the harms already done and the harms being done literally right now across the country. Anything less is a metaphor for action – it's an obfuscation of the long-history of harm and abuse that we know about in this space, and that we know is only a small snapshot of the true reality of abuse in Canadian sport – and it's a surface level attempt reinforce and replicate a system of sport that inevitably produces and endorses abusive spaces within a project of winning-at-any-cost. For if we continue to allow and obfuscate violent abuse in sport, and sport is supposedly integral to our national identity, one concludes that violent abuse is indeed part of Canada. I don't want sport to be about violent abuse, and surely you don't want Canada to be about violent abuse. So let's do something about it, and let's do something now.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Dominique Fils-Aimé over Zoom video!JUNO Award winning artist Dominique Fils-Aimé [FEES-em-AY] recently released her new album, Our Roots Run Deep and shares the cinematic video to her new single “My Mind At Ease”. Our Roots Run Deep is the first statement of a new trilogy from Dominique and follows her award-winning trilogy of Nameless, Stay Tuned! and Three Little Words. This new trilogy will see Dominique look inwards, reflecting on her own emotional and spiritual landscape - her roots. Our Roots Run Deep is out now via Ensoul Records.“My Mind At Ease” is a song that confronts psychological fear. The track works through mental disturbance. Dominique's sensitive voice applies persistent pressure. “Leave me alone bad thoughts” she repeats, “begone”. The ominous quality of the music initially creates a feeling of trepidation. As the song progresses, the moody atmosphere builds up a certain nerve that helps to fuel a breakthrough. Dominique's words and emotion fight back and fear dissipates into “restful dreams” as Dominique's voice rings out “victorious - glorious.” The visually stunning video that accompanies today's release was shot on location at the Olympic Stadium, Montreal and directed by Adrian Villagomez, with Mel Charlot, renowned for her work with Grammy Award Winner, Lizzo, choreographing the piece. While Dominique's last trilogy conceptualized the history of African American music, the approach is more personal for this forthcoming album and trilogy. Speaking on the creation of Our Roots Run Deep, Dominique says, “While the goal remains a quest for universal connection through musical frequencies, this internal journey quickly brought me to the importance of my roots. It sparked a desire to shed light on our intergenerational treasures rather than intergenerational trauma, using these treasures to address and heal trauma. By being more open and vulnerable, I hope to lead by example and contribute to the dismantling of taboos surrounding mental health, taboos that are all still very present today, especially in BIPOC communities.”The album artwork explores Dominique's quest for growth and freedom. In keeping with her first trilogy's use of primary colors for each album artwork, the second trilogy will explore a new color palette resulting from the blend of those primary colors. “Being the fourth color of the rainbow, green is known to be calming, a symbol for new beginnings, nature and growth,” details Dominique.” Green is for the vegetation that inspires me in my songwriting and teaches me to grow everyday. It's like giving myself the green light to let my artistic and emotional freedom bloom, with jazz being my musical vessel.”Dominique's 2018 debut Nameless is now the audiophile's reference recording across the globe. Stay Tuned! won the 2020 JUNO Award for Vocal Jazz Album of the Year as well as the Félix prize for Best Jazz Album at the 2019 ADISQ Gala, was shortlisted for the Polaris Music Prize and featured among the 19 best Canadian albums of 2019 by CBC. Dominique was also nominated that same year as Radio-Canada's 2019-2020 “Revelation in Jazz”. The final chapter of the trilogy. Three Little Words, made the Polaris Short List, and claimed the #1 spot for best-selling album in Quebec and #2 in Canada.We want to hear from you!

Hello Rank Squad!It's the final (and perhaps the biggest) game of the European Season this Saturday as Manchester City take on Inter in the Champions League Final, held this year in Istanbul at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium - 18 years after maybe the most dramatic of all UCL Finals when Liverpool came back from 3-0 down to beat AC Milan on penalties in the Miracle of Istanbul. We take a look at how both teams got to the showpiece event, analysing their runs to the final; before turning our attention to why both will feel confident going into this game. Dean gives us three reasons City can finally get their hands on the coveted European Cup, whilst Sam sets out three reasons Inter will feel that they have the tools to stop that happening. Finally, Jack takes a look at his key battle in this one, between City's Rodri and Inter's Nicolo Barella, before we give some predictions to round things off.It's Ranks!Tickets for our Live Transfer Interactive Show are now available but there's only a limited amount left. We'd love you to get involved, so if you'd be interested in chatting to us about the big transfer stories this summer, why not have a look here?
