BC Lions win a do or die game and Eskimos tank

Yesterday, November 6, was a big day in the CFL for Lions fans and those pesky Eskimo fans.  Lions fans faired better.  TSN reports:

          LIONS DOWN TIGER-CATS TO EARN FINAL WEST PLAYOFF BERTH

And the Edmonton Journal reports:

    The Edmonton Eskimos didn't get any help and they truly failed to help themselves in attempting to  punch their own ticket into the CFL post-season, ultimately getting smacked 31-23 by the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Saturday.

Perhaps Grey Cup tickets will be easier to come by now that the home team has been given the boot. 

As big Lions fans, we definitely didn't want a win for the Eskimos so on Friday I pulled out the Ricky Ray voodoo doll:

And doctored it up a bit.  I took the picture with my phone so it is not terribly clear.  What you don't get a good view of is the white tags which read "Simpson" and "2" - a former Lion and current Roughrider. 

#15 - Ray for you non football fans is Edmonton's quarterback, who is probably still trying to dry his tears. 

Go Lions.
