Hey Wayno

Thought you'd appreciate this.

A former Tar Heel, Dariant Durant, is about to lead his team into the
Grey Cup. A place where many talented university quarterbacks who are
"too short or too whatever" for the NFL, end up playing. For which us
CFL fans are eternally grateful for the lack of NFL imagination,
creativity, open mindedness, whatever.

If you get ESPN2, keep next Sunday free.

Tim, I'm finding it tough. As an Easern guy and a former Montrealer, I
naturally gravitate to the Als, but if there's a Cinderalla team that
everyone loves, it's the Riders. Bottom line, I hope the Als win on a
last second play, where the Riders can leave the field feeling that they
gave their all. Frankly, the Als have too much talent for the Riders,
but they have a habit of falling short in the big game, so who knows.

they say down in rowan county. if we had him at qb this year, we would have
been bcs bowl bound.

Canadian football? Really? That was my attitude till one Fall day
during a stay on Mayne Island up in the Gulf Island chain in BC.
Couldn't get a bite of food to go with the drink while the whole inn
staff watched the Grey Cup on the bar TV. Until that point I figured
all Frostbacks were reticent, emotion-lacking people. Holy **** did I
get a surprise. Frightening really when you consider that the border
is not fortified. ;=+))

We were in a bar in Atikokan, Ontario during a Canada Cup game between
Team USA and Team Canada. I knew we were in hostile territory when I
gave the bartender a US $20 because I was out of Canadian funny money
and everybody started giving us the fish eye.

In the second period a team USA guy plastered Wayne Gretzky into the
boards behind the USA net and Gretzky had to leave the game. Just as
we had to leave the bar. You do not want to mess with a bunch of drunken
Canuckistanis.

He's fit in real well with the Riders and the locals love him. For the
first two seasons, he was so far down the depth chart, he needed scuba
gear. The usual football turn of events put him behind centre and he
hasn't looked back since.

Jeez, I called it. Montreal won by one point on a field goal with no
time on the clock.

What a dissappointment. At least it wasn't a blow-out.
