An extreme example of fan balloting run amok was the 1957 Cincinatti Reds. A Cincinatti newspaper printed daily ballots and encouraged all Reds fans to stuff the ballot box - as a result, 7 Reds were voted to the MLB All Star game starting lineup. The fallout from of the shenanigans? Balloting was t...

Oh....thanks! In that case....

Who is Jack Semple???

Mother nature seemed to play a huge role too as several passes were dropped by both teams. . In the Raiders case, I don't know if it's mother nature or papa Al Davis. Good Lord, these Raiders are wretched - they score less than Ballistic Bob on a Saturday night :shock: (just kidding, Bob :wink: )

I think it was 2002 or 2003, when the Eskimos came to town. Only time I've seen that other than the Grey Cup. Yea...and half of their ch...

Okay, you're going to have to be older than 35 to remember this....probably closer to 45. I vividly remember rainy Saturday afternoons in the winter watching The Bugs Bunny Roadrunner Hour at 4:00pm on CBC. Remember it used to be brought to you by Kraft with "the hands" that showed you Kr...

That was Shannon, who's from Winnipeg. (Gee...how do I know that?) :lol:

Had a good laugh seeing the guy in the Alf costume. :lol:

Or was it really a costume?

Don't you just love the attendance at Islanders games? A heck of a lot of people disguised as empty seats.

Oh...their Ice Girls look nice! :lol:

Ballistic Bob had his fake "Jason axe" confiscated by the rent a cops.

Killjoys!

Mark Washington has been selected as the CFL defensive player of the week, as a result of his blocked punt + 40 yard INT return against Hamilton.

Well, at least I got one series right! :lol:
