The conclusion of today's Grey Cup will signal the end of the CFL's 55-year relationship with our public broadcaster. Personally, it's a real shame that the league will no longer be part of CBC's broadcast schedule. However, I don't blame the CFL for giving exclusive rights to TSN. It's hard turning down $65 million.
Chris Zelkovich of the Toronto Star has written a great article about the Grey Cup and its history on television.
Enjoy.

Grey Cup RVT - Rocket Ismail
In honour of the 95th Grey Cup.
1991 - Winnipeg - Toronto Argonauts vs. Calgary Stampeders
This was the first Grey Cup match I ever watched. I was 8-years-old and decked out in Argo gear. Unfortunately, the '91 final has faded from my memory. However, I do remember this particular play.

Why We're Here
This is the best video game trailer I have ever seen.
Too bad there's no CFL video game.

FOOTBALL AND FUNDRAISING
This Thursday, watch the Argos challenge the Montreal Alouettes, while supporting a great cause.
The Toronto Argonauts and The Centre for Dreams are partnering up for an exciting fundraising event on Thursday July 26th, 2007. For every ticket that is sold, $5.00 will go towards the centre and helping them continue running their educational programs and life skills training.
The Centre for Dreams is a day program for adults living with a developmental challenge and it is their mission to help these individuals continue to live a meaningful and fulfilling life that they otherwise would probably not have. After the age of 21, there is no longer any education provided from the public school system and they virtually have nothing left to do. It is important that we do not forget these very special individuals as they deserve just as much as anyone else, the same respect and opportunities in life.
With that said, listed below are some incentives you can get or help The Centre for Dreams receive with your support:
The Centre for Dreams Group Incentives:
* 0-90 Tickets: Ticket Upgrade for 4
* 100-199: Autographed Merchandise
* 200-399: Player/Cheerleader to attend a DREAMS event
* 400-499: Participation in Fan Tunnel
* 500-699: Field Passes
* 700-949: Video Board Spot
* 1000: Cheque Presentation on field pre-game
This is a great event to gather a group of your friends together, hang out and enjoy this amazing summer weather – all for a great cause. In order to receive the discounted prices on tickets, a form must be filled in and faxed. If you would like more information about the game and ordering tickets or about The Centre for Dreams, feel free to visit their website at www.dreamsinc.ca or contact Michelle directly 905.209.9092.
On behalf of CHEV Radio, thank you for supporting The Centre for Dreams!
