Good news for all you insomniacs out there. This weekend's NFL matchups include the 2-6 Cleveland Browns visiting the 1-7 NY Jets.

Hallowe'en guidelines in many elementary schools call for outfits that don’t scare anybody. So my niece dressed her kids as New York Jets.

Rumour has it Arnold Schwarzenegger's estranged wife, Maria Shriver, will attend the Lakers' Hallowe'en game dressed as Mozart. When Arnold heard about it, he said, "I'll be Bach."

I saw a Hallowe'en photo of an NBA dancer dressed as a bee. Her skirt was so short in the back, you could see her bumble.

Before meeting my wife, I spent almost 20 years going through one date after another. In all that time, I didn't get to first base half as often as Shohei Ohtani did — nine times! — in Game 3 of the World Series.

Canadians Felix Auger-Aliassime and Denis Shapavalov made it into the Basel quarterfinals where both had to retire with injury. Just like that we went from O Canada to Oh-Oh Canada.

Minnesota's quarterback tonight, Carson Wentz, has an NFL record: he's played for six different teams in six straight seasons. He's changed playmates almost as often as Liz Taylor.

I'm not going to say the Bombers' 17-16 home win over the Riders wasn't pretty. I believe TSN panellist Milt Stegall summed it up best: This win was so ugly the scoreboard tried to look away.

Great camera shot of Bengals' QB Joe Flacco staring with mouth agape disbelief after Ja'Marr Chase dropped a perfect pass. I haven't seen that look since my wife caught me vacuuming our living room.

The Blue Jays went to the Northwest coast trailing two games to none, got a pair of big wins, and now their series is tied 2-2. Sorry Mariners: you're sweepless in Seattle.

I hear police in Canada doubled radar patrols from Thanksgiving Monday to Thursday. No surprise — many folks exceeded the feed limit.

  Happy Thanksgiving

  to all my friends in Canada.

The Ottawa Redblacks sat out quarterback Dru Brown for today's game against Montreal. So he'll have Thanksgiving dinner without dressing.

A question for friends celebrating Thanksgiving: What’s the difference between cranberry farmers and pirates? The latter bury treasures; the former treasure berries.
