Jack Mclaren Ramblings A's Default I must admit some disappointment when I learned that the Russell 'A's fastball team was forced to default the semi-final against Blossom Park a couple of weeks ago due to an insufficient number of players on one particular evening. This was, in my view, the only possible way that any opposing South-Carletn team was going to advance against them. Defaulting any game, let alone a play-off game is bad business and it is obvious that if the A's are going to regain their winning ways, more dedication and effort will have to return to their game. There were too many mental errors committed this past season, for one reason or another. A couple of Review issues ago I suggested that perhaps the time was ripe for the A's to move up to Intermediate level. What just happened recently tends to support my statement. While the South-Carleton league now provides a better opportunity for local area players instead of imports, it is obvious to me that the A's team is getting stale -- they are a much better team than they showed. A good touch Intermediate league should change all that. Some of the: players have expressed dissatisfaction with this year' operation -- unless changes are made they won't be back and then you will end up with a house league team. CFL Boredom For the most part I try to stick to local sports' topics in this column. Professional activities get more than adequate coverage in newspapers, magazines, T.V. etc. But I can't help commenting on the lousy product} the CFL is trying to ram down our throats this current season. Even the T.V. game commentators are getting embarrassed. I just finished wat- ching Ottawa play Hamilton (commercials were the most exciting part) and one would think that both teams were the most exciting part) andi one would think that both teams were scrimmaging for the first time this| season. George Brancato got more yardage walking to the ice bucket than the entire Ottawa backfield did all afternoon. While the Constitu- tion is all our government has on its mind these days and I as a patriotic Canadian would dearly like to watch good old CFL football, I couldn't help but turning the dial and having a peak at an NFL game (actually I do this quite often). It was like switching from a high school game to an All Star professional contest. --~ | ¢ BUSINESS STATIONERY & CARDS i ® WEDDING STATIONERY ay © TICKETS © FLYERS : e SILK SCREEN PRINTING N P ROGER'S © T-SHIRTS & CRESTS G RUSSELL 445-5409 Evenings E.
