We dove into the biggest moments from yesterday's game, the super stat and who were the three stars.   To finish off hour one, the fellas gave their good, their bad and their ugly from the weekend.

It's the final edition of The Nielson Show this week and today it's Matt Iwanyk joined by the great Dave Jamieson! To start today's show, the fellas got caught up as it's just like the good ol' times.   The first segment we hit today was Morning Announcements from 100.3 The Bear. In this segment, like we always do is recap everything from the night before. Jamo also gave an update as to why Canadians haven't been as interested in Wimbledon compared to previous years.   After the first update, we quickly touched on the price increase for Sportsnet Plus.   Then it was time for Dave Naylor! He first touched on how big this game is on Sunday for the Elks and how different Tre Ford has been playing. He then gave his thoughts on the Calgary Stampeders and just how good their defense has been. We capped of the conversation with this weeks Saturday nighter between the Red Blacks and Ti Cats.

To start off hour two, we continued the discussion of the price increase on Sportsnet Plus…   We then dipped into MMMMMM That's Good to discuss Canada Soccer's new FIFA World ranking, which is certainly good.   Like we do everyday, it was time for our Play Alberta Early Bird Bet Of The Day! It's Friday Night football, you know where we're going today.   Lots of fun conversation to finish off hour two. Some sports related, some life related.

We got the third hour started with Mr Mikes Kind of Easy Trivia.   It was then time for Three Questions Too Many presented by Park Mazda.   It's Friday, which means it's the fan favourite Sobeys & Safeway Liquor Beer of The Week! This week's drink of the week was provided by Karli Remeika, Co-founder of Clink Beverage Co! She joined the fellas to showcase this week's drink of the week, which is the Raspberry Limoncello or Mimosa Vodka Cocktail.

Plus he is a fan favorite known as the “Hit-Man” because of his hard-hitting play. When the team moved to Nashville as the Tennessee Titans, Bishop and his accompanying defense took the team to new heights, becoming the pinnacle of NFL defenses. The eighth-round pick earned four Pro Bowls in his nine years with the Titans; helping the team win their first AFC Championship Game and advance to the Super Bowl. In addition, Bishop earned Pro-Bowl starts in 1995, 1996, 1997, and 2000 and a three-time All-Pro selection in 1995, 1996, and 2000. Bishop is still widely recognized as the NFL's premier hitting safety during his tenure with the Oilers/Tennessee Titans. Therefore, Bishop's NFL career will be remembered as one of perseverance and a work ethic that was admired not only by his team, but by his opponents. After retiring from his playing career, Bishop went straight into sportscasting.  He has a successful career starting at NewsChannel5, NFL Network and Titans Radio, and now on Nashville's “104.5 the Zone” where he can be heard as part of their Wake Up Zone Morning Show. Bishop is married to wife Cella of 20 years. In addition, they have one son, Chayce. Make sure you follow Blaine on Instagram at @blainebishop23.
