Alex Singleton and the Stampeders won the Grey Cup tonight by beating Ottawa.

One of the local TV stations had a segment about the Grey Cup, since of course DD is a legend here in GF. They also mentioned that Calgary QB Bo Levi Mitchell had played at EWU, but not a single word about Singleton. If he had been a former Griz player, rather than a Bobcat, I'll bet he wouldn't have been snubbed like that.
