CFL Beat: Week 18

The Maestro - 15

Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: Hey, It’s October!

Senor Weaselo - 51

You know what that means! No, fuck your spooky season, and quadruple-venti-fuck your PSL season. (Cider season is better anyway, comparing apples to pumpkins.) It's ALL THE SPORTS season!

MOAR fixtures, and thank fuck a vast increase in quality.  Especially at the tippy-top... Stanford (+21.5) at Son de Clem (7:00, ESPN) Maybe one watches the first quarter of this game.  But probably not.
