The season starts this week, so yesterday I went to the store and picked up a twelve-pack of Blue. That should be plenty enough for the four games. (Labatt's was the original owner of Toronto's baseball team. Because their flagship brand was Blue, they named the team the Blue Jays. When they sold the team, the new owners put the emphasis on the word Jays.) ***** The Bombers have named Charles Roberts to their team Hall of Fame. There seemed to be a story surrounding their trading him that I don't think was ever revealed publicly. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=426267 ***** The Argos have brought back Noel Prefontaine, and added him to their practice roster. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=426271 ***** It looks like Kevin Huntley will sign with the Stampeders. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=426274
