That’s A Wrap
December 3rd, 2009 by Chevy
So the last time I wrote was just before the Western Final. As history will show, we did not get the job done. The finality of a playoff loss is indescribable. All the emotion and all the pain that goes into a season is flushed through in one final whistle. And Poof! It is on […]
Go Time!
November 21st, 2009 by Chevy
Here we go again! Me sitting in my room about to put a movie on the tube in the Hotel Saskatchewan, and waiting for the biggest game in my life to start.
Last week versus the Edmonton Eskimos we took one step closer to our ultimate goal. It was definitely a nail-biter! In the end we […]
Down To The Wire!!!
November 6th, 2009 by Chevy
It seems like a déjà vu for me to be sitting in the Hotel Saskatchewan on the eve of a big game versus the Riders. However, there is no doubt in my mind that this is the hugest regular season game I have ever been a part of!
Usually at this point in the season most […]
Ties Do Bind!!!
October 19th, 2009 by Chevy
Wow! What a game! I have to say that a tie is not necessarily the finish you’d expect or wish for, but it beats a loss. And, considering we were the one’s who had to come back to tie the game, we’ll take it!
I can’t even begin to imagine a fan’s perspective of the game. […]
Hungry For More Than Turkey!
October 11th, 2009 by Chevy
It’s the night before the big game in my home town of Montreal.
I used to be nervous before games at Molson Stadium, because that’s my old college stadium, and usually my family is in attendance.
But I have become pretty comfortable returning here in recent years. And last year’s Grey Cup win pushed that comfort/confidence to […]
Great Week and some Nick’s Steakhouse love!
September 29th, 2009 by Chevy
What a win! Friday night was a battle. The Lions threw down the gauntlet and we responded by promptly slapping them with it! It was a dog fight but we were up for the challenge.
Led by Joeffrey Reynolds and his piston like legs, we dominated on the ground. Hank topped off the day with a […]
3 Steps Forward 1 Step Back
September 29th, 2009 by Chevy
So, we take it to the Eskies 35-34 on the Labour Day rematch. It caps a 3 straight win streak and a push for first in the West. Things are good, right? Well, hold your horses!
We rolled into Hamilton and laid an absolute egg! With a quick 14 points we took the lead, but our […]
The Big Rematch!!!
September 10th, 2009 by Chevy
So you want excitement? Well, Friday night’s your medicine! The Labour Day rematch between the Stampeders and the Eskimos has all the drama and subtext one would want in a game. The only thing missing is a catchy name like the Banjo Bowl!
With the Eskies, you have a team that was embarrassed earlier in the […]
Great Week for Football Fans!
September 3rd, 2009 by Chevy
Well, it started with a nail biting win in Toronto! Obviously, one team’s misery is another team’s fortune. The Stampeders were definitely the beneficiaries of another Toronto “Can’t Get Right” moment.
We strolled into town with a mission on our minds. We had to kick them while they were down, knowing full well that their backs […]
Ouch!!! That Hurts Again!!!
August 21st, 2009 by Chevy
So we give Ricky Ray the ball with little time on the clock, and he puts the nail in the coffin…AGAIN…as he did many times before! Well, that’s what he’s paid to do, and we are paid to stop him. We obviously did not accomplish that and now we sit tied for last or third […]
