While we're waiting for Paul to give us a hint, try this one.

Well, I've made my picks, and I won't weasel out now. But it has occurred to me that since Lulay was chosen (over Calvillo) as the quarterback for the All-Star team, the same voters aren't going to choose Calvillo over Lulay for the Most Outstanding Player Award. And the winners are!... Lulay Johnson Messam McCallum Williams Bourke http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/feature/?id=53295

Jim, my hostess told me that she cooked it at the regular temperature for an hour or so to kill the germs, and then lowered the temperature to cook it for a long time. Very, very moist.

It's been many years since I had a meal as good as the one I enjoyed this evening!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Thanks, sonnymax! Happy Thanksgiving to you!

According to my records, the following tiebreakers are still available: for British Columbia - everything below 30, and everything above 65. for Winnipeg - everything below 20, and everything above 75.

Greg Xenakes Grey Cup pick http://64.246.64.33/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4452936 (I note that if Xenakes's predicted final score is correct, I would win the Grey Cup contest!)

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

aloc, medjuck took Winnipeg and 70, beating you by an hour. What would you like? PS - OT in the CFL is like OT in the NCAA. If it goes into OT, these high tiebreaker numbers will seem small.

medjuck, BFrank took the Bombers and 65 this morning. Would you like the next highest number available?

BFrank, the tiebreaker picks must be multiples of 5.

I remember Almost Good well. We had it. It was the flip side of The Chipmunk Song. I feel that Mediocre was better, however. Mediocre was the flip side The Chipmunks' follow up, Alvin's Harmonica.

According to my records, the following tie-breakers are still available: for British Columbia - everything below 30, and everything above 65. for Winnipeg - everything below 20, 30, and everything above 60.

felser, I saw Condredge Holloway play for the Ottawa Rough Riders (RIP)! He alternated with another Hall of Fame quarterback, Tom Clements of Notre Dame. Neither was second string; they both were given about equal time.

Hardbopjazz, your tiebreaker needs to be a multiple of 5. For BC, that would currently be below 35 or above 65.

Hal Patterson passed away yesterday. I had his bubble gum card in 1959, and I stood right behind him in a line for drinks in 1979. One of the best ever. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=381030

Here's a tip for those who haven't entered yet. Winnipeg had the best defense in the league. They gave themselves the name of "Swaggerville". The tiebreaker picks have been on the high side so far, and a lower guess might be a winner.

RIP. A giant.

Happy Birthday 2011 Don!

Happy Birthday 2011 Doug!

I now see that ESPN3.com will carry the game. Chuck, it so happens that back in '95 I went to a couple of Birmingham Barracudas games, including one where they hosted the Edmonton Eskimos with Gizmo Williams. My recollection is that their attendance was great during the summer, but fell off to near-zero once the Crimson Tide started playing.

Ira Gitler is my hero! When most jazz records had liner notes that were pretentious and condescending, his notes for Prestige welcomed the newbie and made the music more accessible to me.

Correct, brownie, it's Raymond Chandler!
