HIT THE POST WITH CJAD 800'S RICK MOFFAT, VOICE OF THE HABS&GREY CUP CHAMP ALS

How did you like that preview of the All-Canadian Stanley Cup Final?

HABS MATH TEST: Can you prove #41=#1?! Jacques Martin still insists #31=#41=#1.

Why do you want to trade Carey Price all of a sudden? That's not going to cure the problems on the Habs.

Hey Tracy Ham, how often does fellow Hall of Fame inductee Elfrid Payton remind you he sacked you 4 times in a game once!? "Every time we get together...but now at least I can say I was sacked by a Hall of Famer!" chuckles Ham.

Do you realize there is a direct line from Joe Barnes of the 70's to Anthony Calvillo's Grey Cup success? Barnes coached Ham in Baltimore, after Tracy led the Argos to one of the worst seasons in CFL history. Tracy then qb-whispered Calvillo back to confidence after an even worse season in Steeltown. "Why was it so important for you to mentor someone, Tracy?" I asked the Als' QB of Eastern Final heartbreaks in '96, '97, '98 and '99? "Because people took the time to mentor me."

Shouldn't Elfrid's bust at the Hall include his gag false-teeth?

SWAC, where did you get that Sack Dance? (Not so much a dance as a crouch with a cursing point and shake of the fingers). "That's my tribute to the late Glenn Montgomery. We played high-school ball together and he went on to the NFL (Houston Oilers). I just took what he did and made it my own." Montgomery died of Lou Gehrig's Disease, another wicked twist of fate for a man who overcame adversity to rise out of the New Orleans ghetto.

How come no-one but Coach Martin has noticed Ryan O'Byrne stepping up? He led all players in hits AND blocked shots during that 3-2 upset over the Canucks.

Think anyone on Canada will dare hold a "Beware the 13th Man" sign when the Als kickoff their Grey Cup Rematch game in Regina? Rider fans are more likely to dress like Lady Gaga at the Grammies.

Does anybody in a zebra-shirt do a better job than Tony Payne? Tony conducts a basketball game like his brother conducts the Jubilation Choir!

Thanks for all the volunteers who made WILBA weekend a great success. And thanks Tony for not calling my foul on John Bowman of the Alouettes! Your cheque is in the mail!
