The Nielson Show - August 19th, 2026 - Hour 2

TSN's Dave Naylor led off our guest lineup today for a full spin around the gridiron! Naylor set the stage for Friday's huge matchup between the Elks and Blue Bombers, raved about Tre Ford's brilliant performance last week, and looked ahead to what Ford can bring to the table. Plus, with the NFL season right around the corner, Dave provided a quick kickoff preview before offering his take on the struggling REDBLACKS and what move Ottawa needs to make next!   It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day.   After the break, Dusty unveiled the new EST draft belt that will be awarded to the next winner… This thing is beautiful.   We capped off hour two by handing out some advice for Damon Bunting. The boys, as always, gave out some gnarly advice.
