Grey Cup Halftime Show Announced
You're not old until you are afraid to buy green bananas and only buy underwear one at a time because one might be enough.

But the week after?

Snapshot mid-season review of all CFL teams
It is going to take a win against Calgary and/or the Beastly Lions to convince doubters. A hard-fought, close loss will suffice as well, but that is what it will take.

Nope. I am with you on that one, but it could be O'Shea's mandatory loyalty thing kicking in again.

Dieter Brock - Next Ring of Honour Inductee
IIRC, Brockballs around in th made it clear that he was NFL-bound as soon as possible, so they got what they could for him. He built up his arms by tossing shot-put balls in the off-season, but he was not the sharpest knife in the drawer. He was one of the highest-rated NFL QBs before he got hurt- his back I think, and was never the same afterwards.

Around The League Regular Season Discussion
Well, they elected Brian "the best to all the infidels" Pallister as their leader, didn't they?

Still hoping for nude limbo contest with a flaming cross-bar.

Banjo Bowl
I am still not sold on Bass as a MLB. He was great as an outside linebacker but even though he has been getting better, he is still roadkill on too many running plays. Messam is going to demolish him.

Some traditions are so deep-seated that they persist.

Banjo Bowl
I predict that this will be one of the most heart-attack inducing, stressful Banjo Bowls of all time. The Bombers will have a very loud, very partisan sellout crowd who will be hoping for, but afraid to really expect a drubbing of the lowly Riders. We have had so many disappointments at IGF that it is hard to assume that this game will be in the bag.

Sadly, its option one.

Edmonton @ Calgary/ Toronto @ Hamilton
A good deal of southern Alberta was settled by Americans who came after their civil war, thinking they could have slaves here after the practice was banned in the US. The first premier of Alberta was the grandson of one of these. These ex-pat Americans were resentful of any further government interference in their lives and choices- we would call them rednecks now. And BTW: in all the Old West America, Dodge City, Laramie, Tombstone, etc, guns had to be checked in at the Sheriff's office before they could hit the local taverns.

Chris Jones Post Game
Lets remember that there is no way that Jones is going to get fired unless he violates a morals clause- his contract is just too rich to carry and the Riders are still on the hook for 2017 paying Taman and Chambliss (who must look pretty good to the Rider fans by now). Jones' attitude has to be poisoning his relationships with the refs as well. No good news in Riderville, and the vets there with pride are going to start giving up soon.
