Toronto Argonauts 26....Winnipeg Blue Bombers 20 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4632978 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=434537 I was out this afternoon, and returned in time to hear only the last few seconds. Mike Hogan said that the Argos "escaped" with the win. The Argos led 23-3 at the half, and then stopped playing. As a result, the Bombers were eliminated from playoff contention, the Als clinched a playoff spot and the Argos clinched a home playoff game. ***** Saskatchewan Roughriders 35....British Columbia Lions 14 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4633052 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=434559 The Lions were horrible in the first half, losing a lot of fumbles which the Riders turned into touchdowns. The Riders led 31-7 at the half; and it seemed like both teams were going through the motions in the second half. With the win, the Riders clinched a home playoff game.

Don't these PD sets typically make copies of CDs? If so, why do you think that the sound is sub-par?

Jon Cornish rushed for 100 yards for the fourth consecutive game. The Stamps clinched a home playoff game.

I like this one a lot. It reminds me of late '60s Blue Note. The first song is spoken word by a woman, and the last song is a rap by a man. I can live without them. But the rest is very nice. PS - I was surprised to see that the album cover was designed by Milton Suggs!

This group was written up in the Sept. 20 WSJ. I have found a few of their songs on Spotify. I have been enjoying their take on Call Me Maybe, and thought that you guys might like it as well.

Thanks jazztrain! My contact mentioned DIVA as well. I think it's very unfortunate that this album's cover and spine list the band's name as Five Play rather than FivePlay.

dgs, it was the Riders coach who called the timeout before the Eskimos scored the touchdown. It was like the ploy of making the field goal kicker kick twice. I don't think it should be allowed immediately before the ball is snapped.

This group has two albums up on Spotify, but this one isn't up yet. It appears that there is another group called Five Play, so these guys are listed as FivePlay Jazz Quintet. However, this album cover and spine says Five Play and Five Play Jazz Quintet, so maybe they are one and the same. I like this album. I've never heard anything like it before. It's as if someone with the sensibility of Cal Tjader or Sergio Mendes made a modern creative record. I haven't yet listened to the others on Spotify but I intend to. PS - I've asked my contact to clarify whether FivePlay Jazz Quintet and Five Play are the same group.
