No shame in losing to Javon Leake given his year. Sean Whyte a deserving finalist.

The CFL did a good thing in naming the MOP AWARD the George Reed MOP Award. His well-spoken daughter was there and got a nice opening thank you from Chad Kelly the first winner.

For years I couldn't get over the loss of the Schenley sponsorship for CFL awards even though as a 12 year old who knew it was a booze sponsor. I just liked the name and how it became widely referenced as "the Schenleys" just like movies have "the Oscars."
