In 2005, after EA Sports gained exclusive rights to making simulation football video games, Sony didn't let that stop them from plans on the gridiron. Road To Sunday almost became their first foray into the world of "M" rated football games, but it wasn't meant to be. Almost 20 years later, the story of what the game could have been is still very fascinating. I dove into the story of Road To Sunday for both the Avrysports video and audio platforms.

Will we finally get a Tre Ford to start at quarterback in 2024 for the Edmonton Elks? After his first appearance of the 2024 CFL season, in which he threw for three touchdowns in less than 10 minutes of work, we may be getting closer to a Ford start for the Elks under centre. His play gave Edmonton fans something to cheer for in a 44-28 loss to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, which saw them fall to 0-7 on the season. Tap in for post-game audio from Tre Ford and interim Elks head coach Jarius Jackson. Jackson's audio starts at 0:00 and ends at 3:16 mark, Ford's audio starts at 3:16 and goes until the end of media availability.
