So that video with him on his bike and he says, Hey, pay when you lose your job. Call your Sam Firu and get what you're owed. EmploymentLawyer.ca. So that video with him on his bike and he says, Hey Partzy, is that you filming that? Me?

You think I'm out there biking with him? No, I thought you were in a car. Somebody was filming him on a bike and I was like, I thought that was the day you saw him in your car. No, dude. I don't know who that was. He's got a whole camera crew with him. Oh, he's got cronies.

Yeah, he's got cronies. Maybe it was Al's brother. I thought that was you, old dog. I swear. People were like, oh, and Luke Wilson up for a bike ride. I thought that was you filming. Oh, I swear to God. He's always jumping on a bike in the middle of nowhere.

Look at this one. He goes, hey, Partzy. That's what I thought. He was talking to me, but I ain't on a bike. Yeah, it's a guy on a bike. I thought it was Hayes in his car. I thought it was you. It at this one, he goes, hey Partzy, he was talking to me but I ain't on a bike. Yeah, it's a guy on a bike. I thought it was Hayes in his car. I thought it was you. It's not me man, I don't bike.

I drive. Here's Luke Wilson of the CFL on TSN. What's up with the camera crew? You wheeling around and are you going to bike down to B mode tonight? Let's get some things clear here, right? I need to be very honest. There's some different categories of cyclists. First and foremost, there's your city ride,

which is not me, and those are the bane of everyone's existence, including my. The sixth part, so don't let Hayes try and paint me in a bad light. I am not around the car, I'm in two or three cars, I'm biking around. I'm not causing any traffic issues. I will admit the one time I was doing something a little shady, which had something to do with what Frankie was saying with the app, of course I saw this bar come and I'm like if I keep

going I'm going to bump me T-bone and it happened to be hazed with the fraud. That was just a bad bounce for me. Yeah, parts I was thinking. I was thinking. Yeah, we gotta get, we gotta maybe call him back. Yeah, throw him on, throw him on hold there. We gotta try to get him back. He might be down at BMO or maybe he's spiking. I don't know. He's probably at the Scarborough Bluffs right now. He's, he's got a lot on his chest though. And I need to ask him. He somehow is now that he's ingrained in the CFL, he's taken a run at people online

too like reporters and stuff from the CFL. I saw it, week two numpty CFL slash fans people ranking. What does that even mean, numpty? I don't know. I need clarification of all these guys he's taking runs at because some of them like are actually like huge CFL people. Some of them are work for TSN. like he's really taking a run at everybody I don't know what the numpty means and that will need clarification once we let him get stuff

off his chest okay I think we got you back hopefully we can hear you this time I'm live boy go ahead go ahead all right go ahead continue anyways I just want to say that I think it's better than going to planet fitness i can only imagine he's routine there tonight's bike ride up with some tunes on and i go to the golf course after it's a good day to be a retired athlete that's all part you know what i think you know in a fraudulent like party what i was going to say is i was thinking before the nfl kicks off

yourself myself hazy b before the NFL kicks off, yourself, myself, Hazy B, and Al's brother all get on the short track and do a race on a bike. I would absolutely love that. A two-seater, me and Al's brother. You guys got on a combo bike on a short track? Oh my god.

Like the Ryan brothers. Wasn't it Rex Ryan and his brother? Yes. In hell's brother just motoring. Yeah, we can make that happen. If he's not on a cruise, like the guy literally was on a cruise last week. All right, so Noodle's brought up the, what's going on with you online? You're keeping people in check, the CFL community.

How have they embraced your new role on the CFL on TSN I think most most of the fans are pretty excited about it you know I try and bring a little bit of a excitement slash football I do it but the CFL has some fan issues a noodle third you're talking about the Nupdes. It's been like this for the last 15 years. But you have basically this small group of pure idiots that know nothing about football. And to be honest with you, I don't even think they like football.

What does Nupdes mean? Is that just a stupid name? Yeah, it's just like a muppet, like a dummy like a market like it you know and i mean uh... side basically taken upon myself to try and silence the numpty's so that people in canada concert going online actually talking about the football game instead of every other being under the sun the doesn't matter

and i also think that the cfl has embraced these numpty's to a degree and somehow we've got these strange rules like Dave Naylor wrote a great piece the day about there's like Designated Americans that are considered nationalized because they played five years like who came up with this idea Who did I not me up by the apropos boys? So there's a lot of things I'm chipping away at here But the good news is there's some really good players in this league, and I do think it's got some talent, but there

are some issues when it comes to the coaching and the implementation of what these guys are trying to do. But that will all come to light very soon, boys. I'm on a pursuit to get it out of CFL. We're going to improve the game. That's what we're going to do. Okay. Well, in terms of improving the Argos' chances of salvaging this season, tonight seems like a pretty big game. They're 0-2, they're at home, the riders are 2-0. What is going on with the Argos?

What are you seeing on tape that would suggest that maybe they break out tonight, or maybe do you think they won't break out tonight? No, they're in for tough sledding tonight. that maybe they break out tonight or maybe do you think they won't break out tonight? No, they're in for tough sled tonight. Saskatchewan's offensive line is very stoke and they come downhill. They run the ball very well. And the Argos are beat up, but also they do a lot of things where they're just, they shoot themselves in the foot. You know, and it's, I don't understand the,

the one thing I will be the first guy to tell you, I don't quite get the dynamics of the CFL when it comes to off-season moves, but it seems like Toronto basically shipped off all of their best defensive guys, and they're paying for that, and they're banged up, and not having Chad Kelly is another huge ordeal, because I think Kelly can sling it a little better

than Arbuckle can, and across the Kelly can sling it a little better than our buckle can. And across the board, there's just a lot of issues. Week one, I was there when they lost Montreal. They had a very hard time picking up Montreal's front seven and all the different looks they give, which is fair. Montreal brings a lot of different looks. Last week, it didn't really get much better.

They don't execute on offense. They don't play great defense. Again, you never know. It's a CFL but they're going to need to really the margin of error is very small for them to pull out a win today. Yeah that's not something our fans want to hear but it's a long season in the East is the inferior division you know which is a part of it as well I mean you still have a long way to go historically they are goes i think it was kind of looked at it like be alive be a as close to above water as

you can by labor day you can still get in the dance uh... and you know chad kelly and what's going on with him and you know is him recovering from injuries i guess that's that's pretty significant right you see you mentioned that they're pretty banged up but uh... we'll see i guess we'll see what comes of it tonight uh... by so how you get down there did you establish that you had a pretty driving down a biking down what's your plan for no biking

of no biking i'm currently sit in a car right now and down there welcome to come to the game night ignite in toronto no i don't think any of us are going to be out. I should, but I would have loved it, Part C, if they just ride in the broadcast, you just wheeled in on a Pee-wee Herman bike like you were a little bit late and you just wheeled by the coach and just set up shot in the sidelines with your microphone. Yeah, tap up Dinwiddie on the way by and just park that bad boy.

Get us down there on a weekend and we'll stand beside you and we'll chew the fat during the game. Listen, I'm thinking Parchi next weekend at Friday night is Hamilton. I think we should all go. Listen, everyone loves a good time in the hammer. It's going to be a bit of a rough crowd and a lot of the Ticats fans hate me because I've been absolutely out of my mind online. So if you're down, I would love the company next Friday.

Okay, let's put it in the calendar. I love it. Battle of Southern Ontario. I cannot wait. Alright pal, well good luck tonight. We'll be watching you on TSN. It's going to be a fun one.
