[brisco]

Boxing Day (Friday, December 26, 2025) will feature a slew of sporting events throughout the Commonwealth Nations. The UK has many football matches in every division. Canada has junior hockey. Australia has cricket test matches.

Feel free to add to this.

1. Boxing Day, not Christmas Day.

Being a “Commonwealth” nation is absurd and insulting in any event. It recognizes royalty as being a thing. The sooner that concept goes the way of the Dodo the better.

I agree 100%!! What a useless institutional charade.
