I remember very well this one being heavily promoted in the record stores. I wonder if it was his best-selling album.

Today is the 155th anniversary of the founding of the Hamilton Foot Ball Club! ***** Toronto 58....Ottawa 38 The 96 points ties the league record for most points in a playoff game. It was an exciting game until the Argos pulled away with two pick-sixes in the fourth. In a nutshell, the Ottawa defensive backfield did not have an answer for Kelly's passes. https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/recap-toronto-58-ottawa-38/ https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/double-blue-wave-argos-roll-past-redblacks-in-esf/ https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/argos-get-late-defensive-boost-to-complete-esf-win-over-redblacks/ https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/oleary-the-argos-finally-get-their-shot-at-the-als/ https://www.tsn.ca/cfl/toronto-argonauts-use-big-play-offence-to-topple-ottawa-redblacks-to-win-east-semi-final-1.2199331 https://3downnation.com/2024/11/02/toronto-argonauts-advance-to-east-final-with-record-tying-win-over-ottawa-redblacks/ https://3downnation.com/2024/11/03/chad-kelly-posts-a-perfect-passer-rating-in-argos-east-semi-final-win-over-ottawa-11-other-thoughts/ https://3downnation.com/2024/11/03/familiar-flaws-fatal-for-redblacks-in-east-semi-final-loss-to-argos-10-other-thoughts/ https://cflnewshub.com/cfl-news/cfl-scores-today-toronto-argonauts-58-ottawa-redblacks-38-argos-advance-in-east-semi-final-shootout/ https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/3-stats-that-defined-torontos-eastern-semi-final-win-over-ottawa/ https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/dru-brown-redblacks-building-towards-future-despite-playoff-exit/ ***** Sask 28....BC 19 The Lions were able to stay within striking distance, but couldn't get it done as the fourth quarter ran down. https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/recap-saskatchewan-28-bc-19/ https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/green-monster-riders-defeat-lions-in-western-semi-final/ https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/adams-jr-lions-fall-short-in-pursuit-of-home-grey-cup/ https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/03/costabile-a-look-at-all-3-rider-interceptions-in-the-western-semi/ https://www.tsn.ca/cfl/saskatchewan-roughriders-use-strong-second-half-to-top-bc-lions-in-western-semi-final-1.2199436 https://3downnation.com/2024/11/02/saskatchewan-roughriders-advance-to-west-final-with-win-over-b-c-lions/ https://3downnation.com/2024/11/03/b-c-lions-cant-bluff-riders-fold-when-the-chips-are-down-in-west-semi-final-10-other-thoughts/ https://3downnation.com/2024/11/03/paid-for-november-a-j-ouellettes-west-semi-final-performance-exactly-what-riders-envisioned/ https://pifflespodcast.com/blog/mop-does-mop-things-milligan-jr-seals-game-for-riders-in-semi-final-win-over-bc/ https://pifflespodcast.com/blog/riderville-roundup-november-3/ https://cflnewshub.com/cfl-news/cfl-scores-today-saskatchewan-roughriders-28-bc-lions-19-riders-defense-seals-west-semi-final-victory/ https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/3-stats-that-defined-saskatchewans-western-semi-final-win-over-bc/ ***** Finals previews https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/matchups-set-division-finals-head-to-montreal-and-winnipeg/ https://www.cfl.ca/2024/11/02/ouellette-ideal-playoff-weapon-for-western-final-bound-riders/ https://cflnewshub.com/cfl-news/cfl-division-finals-set-for-montreal-and-winnipeg/ *****
