The GIST: We’re into the thick of the pro sports season, so here’s the gist on Canadian teams and players making headlines.

The GIST: Candace Parker returned home with a goal of winning Chicago’s first-ever WNBA title, and she did just that yesterday. We’re not crying, you’re crying.

The GIST: After the public discovery of racist, sexist and homophobic emails, John Gruden has resigned as the Las Vegas Raiders head coach. Can we just get one week without a coaching scandal please?

The GIST: There is so much happening in the world of women’s basketball...or as we like to call it, basketball.

The GIST: Forget spooky season, nothing gives us goosebumps quite like win-or-go-home October baseball.
