New Duds!
June 22nd, 2010 by Chevy
The final touches are still being put on the locker room at McMahon Stadium, as we prepare for the 2010 season! All the young players do not realise how fantastic the new locker room is compared to the last one. Gone are the old lockers, and the trailer that used to be our weight room. [...]
Camp Talk
June 14th, 2010 by Chevy
Well, one week down and 1 pre-season game out. We accomplished our first goal which was a victory in Edmonton! As my old head coach, Herm Edwards, once said, “you play to win the GAME!” And play to win we did. Now was it pretty? No. We committed errors that a team cannot commit when [...]
Off-Season? What Off-Season?
June 1st, 2010 by Chevy
Well, the start of training camp is dawning on us pretty quickly! However, before we look forward into the future, we must analyse the past. This will allow me to appreciate the upcoming 2010 season. This past off-season was a very busy one for me. Training is a huge component. Between getting stronger, faster, more [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
