The six-player team representing Winnipeg battled a strong Toronto team but ended up being shut out 20-0 in Winnipeg's Golf Dome. Winnipeg's team of Kate Simes, Mitchell Piasecki, Liam McLeod, Fabien Ross, Brett Myer and Katrina Krcadinac started their day by edging Edmonton 8-6 in the quarter-final and beat Hamilton 19-13 in the semifinal.
[Geroy Simon] can get open, even when there's two players on him, and I've tried to do that too," said [Melissa Wells], 12, of Vancouver's Our Lady of Perpetual Help school. Awesome also described local fan support Friday for Winnipeg-region champion Henry G. Izatt Wolves, who advanced to Saturday's quarter-finals at 12:30 against Edmonton. In addition to parents and family, there were 56 students from assistant coach/teacher Tim Fast's math and science classes. They were making the most of their morning away from school, banging plastic thundersticks and bellowing "Go, Winnipeg. "It's exciting to play the same weekend in the same place as the Grey Cup," said [Mitchell Piasecki], also a running back for Fort Garry Lions tackle football team and the MVP in last month's provincial min...
Interestingly, that question -- who will Printers play for in 2009? -- also drew some of the more comical responses to our poll, including: 'no one,' 'himself' and 'the Calgary Flag Football Association.' . Joe Smith, Obby Khan, Wpg.; Buck Pierce, Alexis Bwenge, B.C.; Mike O'Shea, Adriano Belli, Tor.; Jeremaine Copeland, Jeff Pilon, Cal.; Gene Makowsky, Sask., Davis Sanchez, Mtl.; Dan Comiskey, Edm. -- 2.2 Inside the numbers: We're partial to 'Knuckles' Irving. Always have been, always will be. But we do love [Chris Cuthbert]'s smooth call on the tube.
I couldn't have given it any more in 18 holes," said [Steve Lowery], who closed with a 4-under 68. "I just told my caddie, 'I've got nothing to lose.' Just go out and play aggressive. If anything, it kind of freed me up a little it. I just felt like I didn't have anything to lose. "It didn't surprise me," said [Terrell Owens], who finished with eight catches for 101 yards in a game that often resembled flag football on the beach. "He'll be in Minnesota his whole life and buying a lot of fur coats." "I think there will be a criminal prosecution after Wednesday, and that means there will be grand jury proceedings and subsequent proceedings," said Richard Emery, one of [Brian McNamee]'slawyers. "I don't see there's any possibility that Brian has any jeopardy. I only see the possibility o...
So I said I'd do it. I want to be part of my son's activities anyway," [Joe Pedro] said, laughing. "We've got a great parents' group, everyone is helping and the kids are having a blast. My main things are that no one gets hurt and everyone has fun. "The comments I've been hearing is it just seems that there's a resurgence in football, with the Bombers doing well the last couple of years and the Bisons won the national championship and they've been a real good team over the last few years too," Pedro said. "It all just gets people pumped up about the game, and that carries over to the kids. Football is kind of getting back to its glory days." "Flag football has been massive for us. We've seen so many kids play flag football who never tried the game, and then go on to play tackle as we...

[Tobin Bell], 65, studied with Lee Strasberg and Ellen Burstyn at New York's Actors Studio and spent decades doing theatre in New York. In the mid-'80s, he says, "I was doing off-Broadway plays three nights a week, working on my craft. And a director at the Actors Studio said, 'You know, Tobin, you've been doing that for a while. I think you should go to Hollywood and play bad guys.' Bell moved to Los Angeles, and in 1988, at age 46, he landed his first film credit as a nasty FBI agent in Alan Parker's Mississippi Burning. "Not a big role, but it arrived just at the right time," says Bell, who adds that "before that I had probably done 60 films, doing background work and stand-ins. I learned a lot doing that. Others at Actors Studio thought it was stupid or degrading. I didn't feel th...

From previous columns about living next door to Central Park, I have become known as "that guy who writes about the neighbourhood" to the seniors who watch immigrants from Africa play flag football in daishikis and see Slurpees sipped by shawl-covered sisters from Iran and Iraq. I wrote that Central Park is one of the liveliest places in Winnipeg on warm, summer evenings and weekend afternoons. Packed with people of all pigmentation, the area "works" and is a beehive of friendly faces sitting on benches and playing in the pool and playground that remains little known to most Winnipegers who flee for the suburbs after spending their eight hours working downtown. More important, there are plenty of faces in the park who need a lift and until the "off hours" social problems that plague Ce...
I've seen him out there but it hasn't lined up so we've been able to get a hold of each other yet," said [Riley], 24, an offensive lineman from the University of Manitoba who the Bombers obtained last season after he was released by the Calgary Stampeders. Yeah, it sure is. Riley's way bigger than his brother and has always protected him. [Justin] would tag along with Riley and play touch or flag football with Riley's friends when they were younger. Does Riley let up on the kid or knock the stuffing out of him if Justin's trying to get past him and drop Kevin Glenn for a sack? "If he crosses my path out there, then he's probably going to get hurt," Riley said. "We'll just have to see how it unfolds. I have no idea, I've never gotten to hit him before, so it's been an interesting experi...
