August sports update

ok so the stampeders recently beat the saskatchewan roughriders, in saskatchewan to move to 4-3 and end the riders 6 game winning streak. with the BC win over Edmonton last night, the Stamps are tied with the Lions and Eskies at 4-3. the als beat up on the bombers who are in last now at 1-6, the als move to 4-3 and hamilton defeated toronto to move to 2-5, 2 points back of the argos who drop to 3-4. so the west is still best at the moment and the stamps rebounded with a win.
heres a short recap of the last few weeks for the stamps
in week 4:
Calgary 43 - Hamilton 16
in week 5:
Winnipeg 32 - Calgary 28
not much news for the flames
and week 6:
Saskatchewan 22 - Calgary 21 (soo close)
and this week
Calgary 30 - Saskatchewan 25 (the Stamps at one point led something like 27-4)
next week the Stamps have a bye week
on Aug 22 the Stampeders play the BC Lions in BC place. a pivotal west division matchup between two 4-3 teams.
not much news for the flames
they did end up signing Bertuzzi for 2 years, im not sure about it but the Nolan deal turned out alright, and Bertuzzi was pretty good, should be interesting to see how he playes and how the fans respond to him. also the preseason sked is out.
Go Stampeders!
and Go Team Canada in the Olympics, which started yesterday.
