That’s the word according to Pulaski Academy’s coach Kevin Kelley. Coach Kelley is a numbers geek who decided to use an “idiotic” strategy, which he felt was sound by the stats…
An entire season of not punting.
End result?
A state championship.
Football buffs, check it out HERE.
Everyone else, keep moving and have a Merry Christmas!
Stamps win.
That’s a pity.
Bring on next season.
If Calgary wins the Grey Cup tomorrow, it’s going to feel like the longest off-season in recent memory for the rest of the world.
If Montreal wins, it’s going to feel like that to the yacky bunch that call themselves the Stampeders.
With some of that cash he’s making, Sir Henry should really go out and rent a movie. Two recommendations: Bambi (take special note of all words spoken to Thumper) or Hancock (because THAT overhaul-your-image-P.R. guy might be handy to meet).
There’s no denying he’s got talent. In fact, he’s got enough to be one of the CFL greats. But there’s more to being a star than just talent. Anthony Calvillo and his Als have shown nothing but class. Henry and his boys seem to be capable of only pulling off three of those five letters.
The Toronto Maple Leafs are honouring Wendell Clark tonight, and I’m using this as my chance to say that this guy was always one of my favourite players. I once made an “I-know-I’m-a-sucker” hockey card deal because the bait on the other end was Wendell’s $4 rookie card… which I still own!
Seriously, this guy was the total package for a hockey player, so Wendell, I salute you, you Saskatchewan boy, you!
A few highlights from this video…
2:16 – This is still one of the most solid hits I’ve ever seen.
3:16 – This looks like UFC and is but one example of why I believe that the only guys who ever “dropped them” with Wendell were guys who SHOULD HAVE been on medication of some sort. There’s just no way…
3:39 – One shot.
4:09 – Wendell was great, but maybe not quite… you know.
So my Roughriders eked out against the lowly Ti-Cats. But an “ugly win” is still a win, and we’ll take it.
However, I must confess that I’ve got more than a little nervousness as the playoff season nears. This is the time of year when every CFL team’s fans know: “If we just get hot at the right time, the Cup is up for grabs.”
And in the CFL, that’s true.
But I don’t remember a team ever being able to say that without even knowing who their starting QB was going to be for game 15 of the season!
So days in Riderville are nowhere near dull, and I put the million-dollar question to you…
