Shoeless Joe author to attend festival

ith a passion for the sport, an incredible imagination and a creative writing style, W.P. Kinsella sparked the beginning of what might have been baseball’s most famous double play. Kinsella wrote Shoeless Joe, a 300page novel that hit People the book shelves in 1982. It told the story of Shoeless Joe Jackson, the left fielder and batting hero of the 1919 Chicago White Sox. He was one of eight players banished from baseball for allegedly fixing the World Series against the Cincinnati Reds. In the second half of the double play, Phil Robinson adapted Kinsella’s story and turned it into the 1989 motion picture Field of Dreams, arguably the best-ever baseball movie and positioned at No. 6 among alltime fantasy movies by the American Film Institute. Kinsella, now 80 and virtually retired as a writer, will be featured on Sept. 20 at 1:30 p.m. at Saskatoon’s The Word on the Street festival. Appearing on the Great Expectations stage near City Hall, Kinsella will read from his latest collection — The Essential W.P. Kinsella — and will then be interviewed by Yann Martel, the Saskatoon-based, internationally known author. “When I finished the second section of the novel, I was reading it while on a trip to Black Butte Dam in California. I knew this had the makings of something special,” said Kinsella from his home in Yale, B.C. “My dad played semi-pro baseball on the Prairies and he’d tell me stories. As a boy living west of Edmonton, I grew up listening to the World Series on the radio. My first one was the 1945 World Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and the St. Louis Browns.” Kinsella’s interest in baseball history, and the fact that he attended the University of Iowa, led to his dramatic imprint with the book. From the pages of Shoeless Joe come the words: “Baseball is the most perfect of games, solid, true, pure and precious as diamonds. If only life were so simple. Within baseball, anything can happen. Tides can reverse; oceans can open. That’s why they say ‘the game is never over until the last man’s out.’ Colours can change, lives can alter, anything is possible in this gentle, flawless, loving game.” (Continued on page 4)

years ago of combines working in a field southeast of the city. It was dusk and we parked at the entry to the field. Sandy got out of the car and started running into the field. Her little legs were just a danglin’. She wanted a shot of the combines coming toward her with the rows of swathed wheat in the foreground. One of the guys in a grain-hauling truck offered to take her closer. She thanked him, got a couple of shots and off we went. It was pretty good work, but I was upset that Sandy brought an army of mosquitoes into the car with her. Last week we were back in the country. Sandy suggested we go looking for a scenic shot of a combine in action. There is no challenge in getting one parked, I suppose. While we were driving up and down country roads, we started coming across some beautiful photo ops. There was the majesty of hawks, both perched and in flight. There was a line of abandoned mail boxes. Rural areas had super boxes, long before those of us in the city started complaining about them. There were reflections of buildings and trees in sloughs. There was a beautiful church and a cemetery where people born as many as 150 years ago were laid to rest. We saw the usual fare of horses and cattle, and even a flock of chickens. They have such expressive faces. It was peaceful and enjoyable. We would highly recommend taking a camera and going out into the country. It is a beautiful world. We have a sampling of the photos on Page 12. ***** Gosh, I hate it when there is no straw in the bag.

Saskatoon filmmaker draws Line in the Sand

Cam Hutchinson Saskatoon Express omas Borsa knew his film, Line in the Sand, was having an impact at the premiere when a teary-eyed crowd gave it standing ovation. That was in Prince George. It happened again in Vancouver. Borsa was curious about the Northern Gateway Pipeline that will move Alberta oil to Kitimat, British Columbia. From there, the oil will be shipped to the Pacific Rim. What interested the Saskatoon filmmaker were the stories of the people living on the path of the pipeline. He felt network coverage had, for the most part, glossed over that angle. He and another filmmaker, Jean-Philippe Marquis of Montreal, decided to travel the line and document the stories of the people living along its path. Armed with $7,500 in kick-start money and their savings, Borsa and Marquis hit the road. The two had met while tree planting. “It was born out of curiosity more than anything,” said Borsa, who graduated from Walter Murray Collegiate and the University of Saskatchewan. “But once we hit the road and started meeting these people and developing contacts, it was just remarkable how welcoming people were, how willing they were to just spill their hearts out on camera and really let us into what it is they felt and, by in large, what they felt was going to be endangered by the project. . . . We felt personally invested. It didn’t seem right to dip our toe in and then leave, to do sort of parachute journalism.” The 25-year-old filmmaker felt media reports barely scratched the surface of the story. “We had seen a few stories . . . where they had attempted or claimed to have made a mini-doc, where you had people on so-called both sides of the issue. And they would say, ‘What is it that these people feel is at stake and what do these people feel is at risk?’ But in seeing that, we felt it could have been written from a bit of a satellite spot. “There was nothing specific; there was no direct engagement with the people who lived there. It was more a talking head one, talking head two and then a narrator would come in and deliver the conclusion and that was it. “We thought, ‘How can each one claim to know more than the next when none of them even seemed to be to these areas?’ So we thought, ‘Let’s hit the road.’ We weren’t certain, but we were pretty confident once we got there we would uncover a little more nuance to the story.”

Tomas Borsa (left) and Jean-Philippe Marquis tell the stories of people living in the path of the Northern Gateway Pipeline in a documentary (Photos Supplied) Borsa said he didn’t approach it as an attack on those in favour of the project. Those from chambers of commerce in many communities along the route, as well as officials from Enbridge, the pipeline contractor, chose not to go on camera. There was interaction with Enbridge by email, he said. “As soon as we suggested filming the interview, they tend to sort of clam up. . . . When we are in these communities as two very obvious outsiders with camera gear, I know there is a lot of suspicion in areas like Fort McMurray. For example, when a news crew rolls up and says, ‘Hello, we would like to talk with somebody who is a pipe fitter.’ “People can read between the lines and there is an understanding that more than likely you are going to cast them in a negative light. That’s certainly not what we were going to do, but it is an unavoidable suspicion for a lot of people.” While a champion of the outdoors, Borsa said he didn’t approach the film from that angle. “I went to the outdoor school at Marion Graham for one year, so it has always been a part of my life. I have always loved running and snowboarding and so on. But it wasn’t at the forefront of my mind when we kicked off the project. We were much more interested in the human impact of the story than the environmental one. That is the one we felt had been overlooked. We were less interested in talking about the environment and more about the people. They are the ones who had not really seemed to have been given a voice.”

Jean-Philippe Marquis shoots in front of a wall with an obvious message Borsa and Marquis recorded approximately 60 interviews, with about 15 making the final cut in the 80-minute documentary. The stories of these people have evoked tears in audiences. He likened it to how people in Saskatchewan value their farmland. “If you are really connected to land, whether (you) are a hunter, a fisher, a trapper, a farmer, you really interact with the land a lot and I think the boundary between Earth and your personal identity gets a bit blurred when you have such a visceral attachment. “When people see their land is coming under threat or perceive it to, they feel it is something that doesn’t have a

voice and they need to take a stand for it. They feel a personal duty to stand up for this place that maybe their families have called home for six, seven, eight, 10 generations. “What we tried to do was remove ourselves from the story and allow people to air their opinions. What we ended up keeping was those more raw interviews where people are speaking from the heart.” Line in the Sand will be shown Sept. 10 at 7 p.m. at the Broadway Theatre. Borsa will hold a question-and-answer session after the screening. There is no charge to see it. For more information, visit lineinthesand.ca.

Corey Chamblin needed to accept his faults, take his share of the blame and figure out how to do better (Photo by Steve Hiscock) stuff. Pulling Smith didn’t upset just him; it showed the rest of the team that Chamblin wasn’t dealing, and had lost his ability to make good decisions. Ergo, disorganized and lacklustre play for the rest of the game. • Don’t pull players when they truly do mess up. This should happen when bad penalties, particularly dangerous ones, are incurred. Another team recently fired a player for perpetual bad penalties. That does have to happen to instill an understanding of what’s acceptable in the other players. It’s about playing disciplined football. It’s about respect for other players, but also about not losing games over too many penalties. (That being said, it’s also true that injuries are affecting the Riders’ ability to be picky.) • Refuse to offer guidance, advice and

support. Yell loudly, or refuse to speak to your player (or employee, for that matter.) A few nights ago, I was watching the Montreal coach slapping the hands of his players and murmuring support every time they came off the field. What’s so hard about that? • Deny that you’re doing anything wrong. Chamblin perpetually told the media that he was the boss; he was doing his thing, and so there. I got the distinct impression that he blamed the players for this year’s debacle. Let’s accept our own faults, take our share of the blame and figure out how to do better. I’m sure Chamblin was wrestling demons every night. Unfortunately, they got the better of him. Management had no choice but to change things up. Onward and upward, I hope.

White Sox players did nothing wrong: Kinsella

(Continued from page 1) ives were drastically altered, some destroyed, by what happened in what was described as a conspiracy to throw the 1919 World Series. “It is my strong personal feeling that the Chicago White Sox players did nothing wrong. The man at fault was Charles Comiskey, the owner of the White Sox. Before the season started, he promised Eddie Cicotte a $10,000 bonus if he won 20 games. In early September, Cicotte had already won 19 games and Comiskey sent down orders to prohibit Cicotte from pitching again the rest of the season, costing him a chance at the bonus. That was a lot of money in those days. “The White Sox players were just looking at a way of getting some money back for Cicotte and themselves. Shoeless Joe and pitcher Hap Felsch knew what was going on. Joe apparently twice refused the $5,000 and left the money on the floor. He and Felsch were among those who went out and played the series just like they played every other game.” Cincinnati won the series, but Jackson had 12 hits, batted .395 and drove in six runs. Pitcher Dickie Kerr won three games for the White Sox. Jackson finished his

career with a .356 batting average and, although neglected by Hall of Fame voters, was since selected as No. 35 on a list of baseball’s 100 greatest players. Some of the White Sox players, including Felsch and Swede Risberg, were known to have played at Brandon, and Kinsella says Jackson may have played on the Prairies, too. Through Phil Robinson’s lead, Hollywood came calling. Robinson was turned down by 20th Century Fox, but the idea was accepted by Universal Studios. There were some little hiccups. J.D. Salinger, a character portrayal in Kinsella’s book, said he would sue if his name was used in the movie. The character became Terence Mann. At first, Burt Lancaster turned down his role as Archie Graham, but later reconsidered. One of the happy developments, with a bit of a Saskatchewan twist, was that Don Buford was hired as a baseball consultant. Buford, originally from the University of Southern California, played centre field for the North Battleford Beavers in the early 1960s before making the grade in the major leagues. He won a World Series ring with the Baltimore Orioles in 1970. Kinsella said he “couldn’t imagine any-

one doing a better job with the movie than Phil Robinson did. Most writers become horrified with what they think might happen with a screen adaptation. Phil was so in love with the book that he stayed in touch. He kept calling. He’d always say there was no way he could trim 300 pages into a movie, so he’d call before he cut characters and he basically gave it a telescopic tuning.” Kinsella went to the movie set twice — once for the PTA scene, once for a feed store scene — and met actors Kevin Costner and Amy Madigan. Later, his wife and daughter went to the set, where they met James Earl Jones and saw some of the action on the corn field-lined baseball diamond. Dream Afield was once a working title, but Kinsella thinks “Field of Dreams was the most suitable.” It is noteworthy that some of Kinsella’s pet phrases – “If you build it, they will come” and “Go the Distance” – were among the key elements in the movie. Among the famous writers Kinsella met during his life was Ray Bradbury. Bradbury, known for creative works like The Illustrated Man and Golden Apple, was doing a book signing in California one day “and I went to get some books signed. He

had no way of knowing me at the time. But, five years later, he read Shoeless Joe and sent me his congratulations. “To me, he was the master of the simile. After reading him, I always told myself that was the kind of writing I would like to do. Not many were doing that kind of writing and I could see that I was able to do it. I just like to write funny and create beautiful language.” Kinsella has won the Order of Canada and numerous book awards. Another book, Dance Me Outside, was made into a film. He’s written The Miss Hobbema Pageant, Butterfly Winter and The Moccasin Telegraph, among others, but the baseball theme still resonates through the Iowa Baseball Conspiracy, Shoeless Joe Comes to Iowa and The Thrill of the Grass. Kinsella has lost interest in modern-day major league baseball. “I was upset when baseball players went on strike in 1994, and the World Series was cancelled for the only time in history. To me, there was a group of billionaires sitting on one side of the negotiation table and a group of millionaires on the other side. It was all about the financial bottom line. No one cared about what the fans wanted or believed. I vowed to quit going to games.”

Although the event is billed as one for those interested in pop culture, Expo says that all in attendance will find something they’re interested in. “There’s really something for everyone,” she said. “We really try to be creative with the lineup to get a little of sci-fi, a little fantasy, a little horror. No matter what you’re interested in, we’re sure you’ll find something that is of interest to you. “ Even if you don’t recognize some of the guests, Expo says that some attendees enjoy watching and getting pictures with the local cosplayers, who often spend months making the perfect costume to dress up as their favourite character. Michael Pete is one such cosplayer who, in addition to dressing up, will also run a booth to assist other cosplayers in fixing their costumes. Pete says cosplay is a chance to reconnect with his childhood. “It goes back to when I was a kid. I always enjoyed comic books and sci-fi, and when I was seven, I met a guy dressed up as Spiderman. And that memory has always stuck with me,” he said. “That’s really why I cosplay. . . .

Family’s dysfunction makes for great theatre

Shannon Boklaschuk Saskatoon Express

nnabel Kershaw can now cross off an item from her theatre bucket list. The Vancouver-based actress has landed a gig at Saskatoon’s Persephone Theatre — something she has long wanted to do. “I’ve always wanted to work here for years. It’s got a tremendous reputation right across the country, and for years I’ve heard about it from my fellow actors and colleagues and friends who love working here,” she said. Kershaw is starring in Persephone’s production of the play Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike, which will launch the 2015-2016 main stage season. The play is about three siblings: Vanya, Sonia and Masha. Vanya and Sonia are living a quiet life in an old farmhouse in Pennsylvania when they are visited by their aging movie star sister, Masha, and her 20-something boyfriend, Spike. According to Persephone’s promotional material, Masha’s visit comes with an ultimatum and “sets off an unforgettable weekend of lust, rivalry, regret and racket.” Kershaw said dysfunction in families — as is the case with the fictional siblings in the play — creates “a lot of comedic moments.” “We all have stuff in our lives, in our families, that give us a lot of entertainment value,” she said. Kershaw is taking on the role of Masha, a character who was once a highly respected stage actress but who was offered a role in a bad horror movie that went on to have sequels. Kershaw said noted American playwright Christopher Durang wrote Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike with actress Sigourney Weaver in mind. The pair had attended the Yale School of Drama together, and Weaver, an Academy Award nominee, took on the role of Masha when the Tony Award-winning comedy was produced on Broadway.

“She originated the role of Masha and it’s funny because, knowing that, you can see some of the connections between the role and her life,” said Kershaw. “It’s sort of interesting when there’s sort of a basis, or a foundation in reality, for a playwright,” she added. Kershaw, who has appeared in film and television roles as well as in live theatre, is enjoying the role of Masha. “She really is a lot of fun to play, because the character’s pretty over the top, as you can imagine. He’s written her almost like an old-fashioned movie star. . . . So it’s always fun to do those things, but at the same it’s challenging because you’re playing artifice, but there’s a depth and reality to it. “You start to see the chinks in that armour that she has developed and what’s underneath it. Of course, there’s always insecurity and a little bit of pain and a little bit of ‘Oh my god, what am I going to do with my life as I get older?’ Because we all know the entertainment industry is not kind to aging women by any means.” Kershaw added that the connection that Masha has with her siblings “has a certain amount of contentiousness,” but is also “very strong and very deep.” “The characters are so multi-layered and the audience, I think, falls in love with them,” she said. Kershaw expects that Saskatoon audiences will enjoy the show, which she says has rich characters, strong writing and hilarious situations. “It’s been hugely popular. I mean, it did win the Tony and (Christopher Durang is) a much loved, beloved, American playwright, and the play has been done everywhere — so the audiences are clearly responding well to it.” The play is directed by Persephone Theatre’s artistic director, Del Surjik. The rest of the creative team includes: Jamie Lee Shebelski (assistant director); David Roberts (set designer); Andy Forrester (lighting designer); Terri Morgan (costume designer); Laura Kennedy (stage manager); Melanie

Annabel Kershaw stars as Masha in Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike (Photo Supplied) Rogowski (assistant stage manager); and Laura Andreas (apprentice stage manager). In addition to Kershaw, the cast includes: Sharon Bakker (Cassandra); Danielle Desormeaux (Sonia); Anna Seibel (Nina); Robbie Towns (Spike); and Geoffrey Whynot (Vanya). Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike

runs from Sept. 16 to Oct. 4 at the Remai Arts Centre. The play shows nightly at 8 p.m., except on Mondays, and also shows at 2 p.m. on Sundays. Tickets are $32 to $46, and can be purchased by calling the Persephone Theatre box office at 306-3847727 or by going online to www.persephonetheatre.org.

Dear Reena, I dripped some red candle wax on an old oak table and did not notice it for more than an hour. As soon as I saw it, I scraped off the wax and rubbed the spots with furniture oil. Although all the wax is gone, there is still some red dye in the wood. I thought I might try some mineral spirits next, but I decided to contact you to see if you have thoughts on this. I would like to avoid having the table refinished if at all possible. — Shelby Dear Shelby, Have you tried rubbing the area with

the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser? Depending on the finish of the wood, you may have great success with this. I have also received reports that some people add a few drops of rubbing alcohol to the Magic Eraser. They say the dye stain disappears (test on inconspicuous area first). Another option is to scrub the area with Head and Shoulders Dandruff Shampoo and rinse with water. Mineral spirits will likely remove the dye, but also damage the finish of the wood. Next time (if there is a next time), cover the area with a brown paper bag or tea towel. Press the area with a warm iron (steam setting off). Move the paper around the area to soak up all of the wax. (I enjoy your questions and tips; keep them coming. Need a presenter on the topic: Effective Speaking or The Power of Words? Check out: Reena.ca.)

Sports event for girls set for Sept. 13

he City of Saskatoon’s annual Active Like a Girl event will take place on Sept. 13 at the SaskTel Sports Centre. Any girl aged 10 to 14 is invited to register for the event, which will provide an opportunity to learn and try various sports throughout the day. Registration closes on Sept. 10. “The day is filled with all sorts of fun activities for the girls participating. It gives them a chance to try out some various sports — soccer, hockey, wheelchair basketball, also some functional fitness,” said Shannon Hanson, social development manager for the City. “It gives them a chance to rotate through some of those areas and see if they like some of those activities.” The event will feature former Olympians Colleen Sostorics and Deidra Dionne,

as well as Parapan American medallist Erica Gavel. Hanson says she believes the star athletes will be role models for the young athletes. There will be space for 125 girls at the event. “I think it’s great to provide these young women with a positive female role models,” Hanson said. “Promoting physical activity is hugely important for our youth of today, so to send them the message that there are all sorts of things they can be involved with and all sorts of places they can go with it is really important. “If you look at some of the information out there, girls tend to drop out (of sports) sooner, so encouraging them to participate and to keep that active lifestyle is important.” To register for Active Like a Girl, call 306-975-3378.

What would you get if you crossed a motorized wheelchair with a loveseat? Apparently this contraption. The modest Saskatoon inventor, who declined to give his name, decided to have some fun with a discarded loveseat, hooking it up to a motorized wheelchair and taking it for a spin (literally and figuratively) down the street, even allowing a passerby (in photo) to share in the fun.

can locate and where the City needs to install sewer and water lines. It is very similar to the plan we had for Saskatoon that was called the Yorath Plan. It was established by Christopher Yorath, who was the city engineer in 1913. That plan was basically used by the City of Saskatoon for 100 years, and it has run out of steam now. This Plan for Growth is the next legacy for the City of Saskatoon. It’s not only for Saskatoon, but for Corman Park, Warman, Martensville and Osler. Citizens and businesses are looking for stability and certainty. If you were building a home out in a rural area, and all of a sudden across the street there is an oil refinery being built beside you, you wouldn’t be very happy. Nor would you be very happy if you thought you were going to be living out in the country forever and you are going to be able to have your chickens, your horses, your cows and your goats, and the City has a boundary adjustment and you are now part of the City and you are told you can’t have this anymore. So this is to drive that certainty for everyone. Question: Do you look at these negotiations as win-win? Are they fairly amicable? Mayor Atchison: The negotiations that occur are sometimes difficult. By the same token, by preparing this Plan for Growth, there is aJames certainty. Our planning JW15577.I07

The Plan for Growth will give us the plan and the certainty. Question: I am an avid bike rider in the city and want to know why the bike lane along Whiteswan Drive ends where it does, when it appears the lanes could continue to the end and at least on the park side of the street? Mayor Atchison: What I would like us to do to is finish these bike lanes that end in the middle of nowhere. It’s not safe. It is not convenient. We need a connected bike lane system in Saskatoon. In this particular area, there was no parking along Spadina Crescent and Whiteswan up to Lenore Drive. Beyond that, parking is allowed. When it was put into place, there wasn’t an appetite to prohibit parking to put in a space for the bike lanes so that is why that happened. Did You Know? The City of Saskatoon has provided nearly $20 million toward attainable housing initiatives, which has produced more than 3,700 new units since 2008. (Have a question for Mayor Atchison?

MOULDINGS

Lianne Tregobov Matchmaker Dear Lianne, I was introduced to a fellow a month ago. After a short time, we both could tell we had much in common and were both interested in finding a life partner — or so I thought. We live a couple of hours apart, so we both knew we would have to make that additional effort to get together. Luckily, in theory, we were both willing to make the effort. After talking together on the phone for a few weeks, I made the effort to go spend a

couple of days in the city where he lived, so we could spend some time together. Our time was well spent, though he was only able to spare about four hours, in total, between work and his kids. We planned to get together on two occasions since, but he cancelled at the last minute as work suddenly got too busy. He must have been extremely busy as he apparently fell asleep, rather than calling me one evening, and on another occasion it took him five days to call. Believe it or not, when he did call, he apologized, but just couldn’t understand

why I couldn’t be more understanding about his work demands. Furthermore, when I asked when he would be willing to commit with finding time for our relationship to possibly grow and evolve, he just couldn’t commit for a few more months, but interestingly enough he was very much interested in us being together. Seriously? Does this man honestly think that world simply revolves around him, his time schedule and needs? While I think I know how I am going to respond, I would really appreciate your take on this. — Kris

This guy clearly isn’t worth the effort Dear Kris, You seem to like this fellow, but also know what you need. I would suggest that you let him know you are going to continue with your search and welcome him to call you when his life calms down. If you are still single at that time, you can try again. Really keep your eyes open and make sure the next man in your life is considerate and not self-centred. (Lianne will be in Saskatoon interviewing new clients from Sept. 29 to Oct. 2.

Cam Hutchinson & Friends:

Views of the World

It’s easy to kick Chamblin now

askatchewan’s media really annoyed me last week. It’s like the talking heads and writers came out of their caves to pile on Corey Chamblin after he was out of town. Thank goodness some, like Darrell Davis of the Green Zone, called out the coach long before he was walked out the door. I admire that. • Another good thing about the Chamblin firing? We won’t have to listen to goofs calling him Chamberlain on post-game radio shows. • Torben Rolfsen, on Peyton Manning admonishing Bronco rookies for continuing to use their college email addresses: “He’s just jealous because in 1997, Tennessee didn’t have email yet.” • TC Chong, on doctors saying a daily nap is good for you: “‘See?’ said airport traffic controllers.” • Does anybody else feel horrible for what happened to Tino Sunseri? • Janice Hough, on a poisonous eight-foot-long King Cobra escaping from a house in Orlando near Disney World: “So for all you thrill-seeking tourists, there’s no need to wait in line for the Indiana Jones ride.” • Bill Littlejohn, on Michigan’s Jim Harbaugh delighting Seattle followers by using a Seahawks logo on one of his play cards against Utah: “He was careful not to flash it when his offence neared the goal line.” • From Rolfsen: “There are concerns in Toronto over the possible cost of hosting a Summer Olympics. Simple solution to winning over the populace? Just tell them the Blue Jays would be in it.” • Glenn Suitor is apparently shopping for a front-office job he’s with a CFL team. Sorry, I hear a nice guy on TV and radio, but don’t see enough decisiveness in him to make tough calls. • Chong, on jubilant Blue Jays fans throwing their hats on the field after Edward Encarnacion hit three homers in a game: “Toronto fans said this was far more economical than tossing their jerseys on the ice after Leafs games.” • Littlejohn, on Waze Navigation signing Rob Gronkowski to be the voice of one of their GPS AS70407.I07 Aaron

applications: “Customers report, however, that they always seem to end up at a bar or a hospital.” • From Rolfsen: “The Blackhawks have tried trading Patrick Kane, but so far the only serious interest has been from Game of Thrones.” • You know what sucks? CFL officials making in the ballpark of, say, $1,500 a game. Next time you meet one, say thank you and put a couple of bucks in his cap. • From Hough: “The judge who overturned Brady’s suspension wrote ‘The Court concludes that, as a matter of law, no NFL policy or precedent notifies players that they may be disciplined (much less suspended) for general awareness of misconduct by others.’ The Saints called — they want 2012 back.” • From Rolfsen: “There’s a movie coming out about the NFL’s head problems — and it’s not about Jerry Jones, Dan Snyder or Roger Goodell.” • From Littlejohn: “After Jake Arrieta no-hit the Dodgers, he and his Cubs teammates had a pajama party on the flight home. The commish said it was OK as long as it wasn’t hosted by Hugh Hefner.” • From Chong: “Last Saturday I was jumping back and forth from the New Orleans Saints game, where they commemorated the 10th anniversary of Katrina, and the Saskatchewan Roughriders game. What is the difference between Hurricane Katrina and the Roughriders? Katrina was a natural disaster.” • Hough, on Donald Trump saying Denali will be renamed Mount McKinley if he’s elected president: “And then presumably six months later he will rename it Mount Trump.” • A headline that made me chuckle: “Notes on the trail from the mounted newspaper columnist.” • Rolfsen, on wrestling legend Jimmy (Superfly) Snuka being charged in a 1993 death: “His legal team plans a defence that he was concussed after Roddy Piper smashed a coconut on his head.” • Watching Chris Milo kicking for the Ottawa Redblacks, it donned on me that black is a slimming colour.

A group on a bus tour found an interesting place to dry their laundry (Photo by Sandy Hutchinson)

Quarterbacks and Nickelbacks

By RJ Currie fter Edwin Encarnación’s third homer in one game, Toronto fans threw caps on the field in hockey’s hat-trick tradition. Probably because they didn’t get a chance to throw them at Leafs games. • Fernando Verdasco mocked the sore back of Milos Raonic, who won despite repeated treatments for back pain. So Raonic’s massages rubbed Verdasco the wrong way? • Midway through the CFL season, the Saskatchewan Roughriders were 0-9. By Labour Day they’d been on the shneid so long they had to get it drycleaned. • Scientists have found some varieties of lice are resistant to over-the-counter medicated shampoos. That’s a bit of a head-scratcher. • A virtual-reality booth at the U.S. Open lets fans play tennis against Maria Sharapova. Standard equipment includes a virtual racquet and real ear plugs. • Danica Patrick described the world of racecars as “mostly male-driven.” I love it when puns write themselves. JW15575.I07 James

• Avril Lavigne announced her split with Chad Kroeger. I’m guessing the reason was “Complicated.” • US Weekly reports Gisele Bundchen has consulted a divorce lawyer and might be leaving Tom Brady. Losing Gisele Bundchen? Now that’s deflating! • What do you call Canada’s 101-59 rout of Cuba at the FIBA Americas men’s championship? The Cuban Mismatch Crisis. • CoCo Vandeweghe pounding her racquet to smithereens at the U.S. Open has gone viral. She lost the match, but she’s a smash hit. • Cristiano Ronaldo reportedly paid $25,000 for a wax figure of himself. “Big deal,” say the Redskins. “We bought RGIII — a $21-million bust.” • Did I hear a U.S. Open commentator say N.Y. Harbor has one of the world’s great erections. What? The Statue of Puberty? RJ’s Groaner of the Week New Yorkers are divided over pics of a cop posing in Times Square with a topless woman in each arm. Some think it’s harmless fun; others say two thongs don’t make a right.
