Salon chasse, pêche et camping 2009

Je suis allé au Salon chasse pêche et camping 2009 et j'ai eu le privilège de rencontrer Cyril Chauquet de l'émission Mordu de la pêche au canal évasion. Si jamais vous avez l'opportunité d'écouter un épisode vous ne serez pas déçus. Bref il offrait une séance de photos et d'autographes au kiosque de QuébecPêche. C'était amusant comme salon, il y avait toute sortes de véhicules récréatifs, des bateaux, des conférenciers et des pourvoiries etc. Pour les débutants il y avait une piscine remplie de truites que l'ont pouvais pêcher au prix de 5$ l'unité.

First ski outting of the season!

I went skiing the other day, it was great, I love this sport and it was great for my quads. The thing is is that it is so expensive 50 dollars for the ticket you dont have skis or boots yet! (without speaking of the gas because lets say we are lucky)I was very thankful a guy I know lent me some skis and boots, unfortunatly the boots were way too small so after two times down the slopes I got them changed! The view was great and the air was fresh, I hadn't been skiing last year, well actually I never skied I snowbladed twice. I looked like an outcast on the mountain because I was the only one with jogging pants and a grey coat (soaked in sweat or in snow) I was never cold tough. By days end I was really pooped and didnt get to really enjoy my friend's stagg party! If only I had the budget, I would be there every weekend I am not on the skating rink!

Note that lake Tremblant is not frozen yet !

Aigles Champions du Bol d'or

Vendredi soir je suis allé à la grande finale du Bol D'or Juvénile AAA. Devant une foule d'environ 2000 personnes les aigles ont dominés les trois premiers quarts avant de se faire remonter pour terminer la partie en temps supplémentaire. Vive les bonnes vieilles fusillades style NCAA. Score final : Aigles du collège Jean-Eudes 39 Loups de l'école secondaire Curé-Antoine-Labelle 36. Certains de mes coéquipiers ayant évolués à CAL (non je ne parle pas de California) m'ont assurés une victoire des leurs. Comme d'habitude les loups avaient plus de talent mais moins de discipline et ont été "outcoached"! Je me souviens encore d'avoir gagné le premier Bol D'or du Collège il y a déja 5 ans de cela contre les Cactus du Collège Notre-Dame, encore une fois nous étions underdog! Les Aigles attaquent au sol mais règnent aux plus hauts sommets... Je n'ai pas écrit depuis un moment car je me remet encore de notre défaite en finale de l'OFC, félicitation aux Champions Nationaux les Vancouver Island Raiders qui ont mis la main sur leur 2e titre en 3 ans.

Shoutout to my buddy Ismael Bamba

I would like to give a shoutout to my buddy Ismael Bamba a true freshman wide receiver and kick-returner at University of North Dakota. His first carrer catch was a 61 yard pickup for a touchdown. Last weekend he returned three kickoffs for 147 yards and leads the Great West Football Conference in yards per kickoff return averaging 49 yars per return. Next week the Fighting Sioux (5-1) will be heading to California to face the UC-Davis Aggies (4-4). Good luck to the Fighting Sioux. If you wish to become a fan of Ismael Bamba on facebook just write his name in the search box. In the near future, I would love to go and see him perform in Grand Forks N.D. maybe next year. Keep up the good work buddy!

By the way the St-Léonard Cougars won the OFC semi-final by the score of 28-14 we have alot of work to do in order to win the next two games.

The playoffs begin in the OFC!

VS

After defeating the Burlington Braves at Nelson Stadium, and finishing first in the Ontario Football Conference, last week we are getting ready to shut down the Hurricanes who beat us once this year. There is less football left now so lets enjoy the last few games to a maximum. Because of the federal elections on tuesday we had limited practice time this week but we put in a basic but effective game plan that should help us send back the Canes to Hamilton with a frown on their faces. The game was supposed to be a 1 pm but because of a shortage of refs it will be at 7 o clock at Stade-Hébert. Our 3-4 defense should help us put on more pressure on Qb Brian Echlin. The Winsor AKO Fratmen are playing the Burlington Braves at Nelson Stadium tonight to decide who will have the privilege to fight for the OFC title next saturday

God bless the playoffs!

7 points too many !

I think this picture speaks for itself. We just have to stay humble and continue winning! Big road game next week in Burlington. Unfortunatly we are presently in second place because we allowed 6 points more than the braves.

WINSOR AKO FRATMEN VS STL COUGARS

VS











On august 17th the cougars where defeated 24-14 by the Winsor AKO Fratmen, the cougars hadn't lost a game inside the conference in more than 4 years. As the weather is getting colder we start seeing who are the real warriors who will claw with their fingernails for an inch (as Al Pacino said) All week I was devestated by the people arriving late and flat at practices but last night at the walk-trough I realised that we can pull it off with the guys we have by sticking togheter, working hard and doing our assignements. We where all so hyped and ready to go to war. And for tonights gave it shouldn't be a problem because the stakes are so high, if we beat them by 10 points we can still finish first. Success will be the best revenge...
