July 29, 2025: While the Canucks mull, Whitecaps bet on Müller

The Canucks' silence continues in the wake of the Dakota Joshua trade, so it's the Whitecaps with the big signing instead. Matt and Blake jump into the international headline of Thomas Müller's arrival on Friday, and it sparks a debate on the biggest athletes to play in the city of Vancouver, what this means to the imminent and long term future of the Whitecaps, and whether new fans will show up for a player that is not named Lionel Messi. Patrick Johnston of Postmedia stops by to talk about the Canucks inactivity and if it could extend as far as the regular season. PJ also digs deep into his reporting on the BC Place deal with the Whitecaps, and the future of the stadium and its two main tenants. The Province reporter also shares his thought on the Müller acquisition, its comparables, and whether he makes the Whitecaps a favourite this season. The guys wrap up the show with the latest baseball news as MLB heads towards the trade deadline, plus Genie Bouchard moves on in her swan song!Thank you to our great sponsors:@bet365: It's never ordinary!
