ejp626 Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 PS - I'm sure that I read that Nickleback is from BC, but the announcer just said that they are from Alberta. Don't know about that, but I do know that Nickleback played the Thanksgiving Day game (Lions-Packers) and the good people of Detroit put together a petition asking for another band.

GA Russell Posted November 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 After three, it's BC 24....Winnipeg 9 On the last play of the quarter, BC scored a touchdown on a 66 yard bomb. So this eliminates sidewinder, Jeffcrom, mjzee, kh1958, king ubu, Big Al and ejp 626. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA Russell Posted November 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 The Lions have scored again, so with 6:10 left the score is 31 to 9. So that eliminates Hardbopjazz, B. Clugston, JohnJ, papsrus, danasgoodstuff and Greg K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be sure to tell us what you spend it on! PM sent. I rarely win contests, but I'm happy to have won this one. And I've never followed Canadian football but, from now on, the Lions and the Blue Bombers are my favorite Canafian teams. When I place my next order from Mosaic, I'll post it here. Many THANKS! to GA, or whoever is responsible for the gift certicate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA Russell Posted December 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 Sounds great, Paul! And apropos too. The Ottawa Rough Riders had a player who became an announcer named James "Duke" Ellingson! I heard him guest-analyze the Blue Bombers-Alouettes game this year.
