    Quite the game this afternoon. Eskies walk all over the Stampeders 37-16. Heck of a day. Sorry to hear about your tabbies JR.

    Today's games were not on channelsurfing.net. Very irritated at that.

    Hey Beef, do you have the pancakes/syrup recipes?

    My Ticats lost but the good news is, U of Toronto avoided going 0-50 by beating Waterloo yesterday. First game the football team has won since 2001.

    Didn't U of T used to be a football power at one point? Man have they fallen. Wouldn't want to be at Waterloo for practice today, what was the score?

    Well, they used to at least be respectable. They've won the Vanier twice, same number as Acadia.

    U of T has 60,000 students, Acadia 3500.

    The year my son started at Acadia, U of T had kids show up for tryouts who had never played high school football.

    Judging by that 49-game losing streak some of them must have actually stuck.

    Here's the story

    18-17 for the Blues. FG with 20 seconds left to go.

    Front office wiz Eric Tillman's got another winner cookin' up.
    This time it's Saskatchewan (though they lost for a second time recently)
    Tillman's been with NFL and CFL and Senior Bowl in his big-leagues career, which started just out of college.

    Well he did it last year by blowing past the salary cap which cost him draft picks and forced him to cut several stars off of last year's team. This year's team has been decimated by injuries but chugged along for the first six games of the season before losing two to Calgary and Edmonton and then struggled to beat Winnipeg in the fist game of their labour day set - yeah it was 19-6 but it was absolutely brutal - michael Bishop threw for just 105 yards in the win. terrible football.
