I find it odd they serve Coor's instead of Labatt's. It wasn't like that when the stadium was named Ivor Wynne. Is Tim Hortons Inc in a riff with Labatt Brewing?

Doc Brown Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I was hoping he'd say, "I'm taking my talents to Hamilton." This is a smart move for him as it's the only way you're going to prove to the NFL that you've matured by staying clean and focused for an entire season while performing at a high level.
