CIAS #19.9: The Horse With No Name
Episode 46
Thursday, 25 December, 2025
Please note that there is a version of this episode with slides, if you prefer. You can watch the video on YouTube here.Fresh off of learning about the unmitigated clownshow that was the Las Vegas Posse, we ask the question: "Okay but what if you made it really humid, too? What if you added circus animals?? What if the field tried to kill you???" We also ask the question: "How many CFL franchises do you get a crack at running into the ground with your small adult failson?" And additionally: "What do you do with your jingle after the NFL sues you to make you stop using your team name?" Not to mention: "What is the most appropriate way to write about a public figure dying in a nursing home?" We don't get a lot of good answers, but there are definitely a ton of questions.This brings us to what Francis Fukuyama was talking about when he said "the end of football history": the 1994 Grey Cup. That's it! There's simply no more football to discuss after that. All that's left is to hammer out George Stroumboulopoulos' role in the past nine episodes. Oh, and "Danton Barto" is in there.Support us on Patreon: https://patreon.com/CanuckIsASlurJoin our Discord: https://discord.gg/RCACQQue28Follow our various socials: https://linktr.ee/CanuckIsASlurCheck out Beyond the Breakers: https://www.instagram.com/beyondthebreakerspodcast/ Follow Tanner on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hive.fleet.hodag/Intro: "A Horse With No Name" by AmericaOutro: "Baltimore CFL Football Theme" by WMAR-TV BaltimoreMajor sources:"End Zones & Border Wars: The Era of American Expansion in the CFL" by Ed Willes (2013)"This Isn't How a Legend Should End" by Earl McRae, for the Ottawa Sun (23 June 2007)Las Vegas Posse vs. Saskatchewan Roughriders (16 July 1994)Baltimore CFL Football Club vs. Calgary Stampeders (16 July 1994)Baltimore CFL Football Club vs. B.C.
