Oh, was there a game on?

I don't think "electrifying" will be used by many people to describe yesterday's Grey Cup game, in which the B.C. Lions downed the Montreal Alouettes 25-14. Former Rider Paul McCallum tied a Grey Cup record with six field goals, and earned top Canadian honours in the process.

Now, the fun starts around the CFL. Will Danny Barrett still be the Riders' head coach at this time next week? I suspect he won't. Will the Riders announce a host of player signings and/or contract extensions? Probably. Will the fans be thrilled to the point of delirium, and storm the box office to purchase/renew season tickets? Yeah, whatever...

The Regina Pats are 1-1 on their 6-game west coast road swing. They visit Prince George tomorrow night.

Jacob's soccer team was eviscerated Saturday afternoon. However, my offspring played his little heart out - so the outcome was pretty much irrelevant. Oh, and Yoda's birthday included the new Bond movie, Casino Royale. I didn't expect to like Daniel Craig in the title role, but I was very pleasantly surprised.
