Chris Odoi-Atsem rings the bell, Miguel Almiron to Newcastle, and more: Freedom Kicks for January 30, 2019

Happy Wednesday, everyone. The government may be on a 3 hour delay and some schools may be delayed or canceled, but the Freedom Kicks is right on time. Stay safe out there this morning.

To that, I think we all say, congratulations Chris! This is some awesome news, and I’m incredibly happy for him. And I don’t normally curse on here, but you all will understand: fuck cancer.
