I've created a copy of the 2007 season schedule in .CSV format suitable for importing into Outlook, Palm Desktop, or any number of other PIMs. PM me with your email address if you want a copy.

Note: this version is formatted for systems with "English (US)" regional settings, with dates in mm/dd/yyyy format - systems set for Canada and UK English and some others use the dd/mm/yyyy layout. This should work for most people, as that's the default regional settings for most Windoze installations, but if you need it in a different format, let me know. If you import this and find games where the day is less than 12 (ie. July 6), but others do appear normally, it probably means you need the other regional version.

Or you could just download the entire CFL schedule already created for input into Outlook and downloadable from cfl.ca in .csv form

http://www.cfl.ca/index.php?module=page&id=510

just make sure you set your system time (regional settings) to Eastern time, and your locale to US before you import into Outlook, or else it won't interpret the dates/times properly.

Coolios. Thanks.

... for a little something called "sitting on your couch drinking beer watching TV"! Isn't that the purpose of professional spots in the first place?

By having all the games in your Outlook, you conveniently have a way to avoid accidentally booking conflicting things that just interfere, like meetings, or going to the park or beach, or time with wife/kids, etc, and you can concentrate on bbq, football & beer for the next 5 months.

I think I'd much rather go to the beach, or a meeting, or the dentist, than to actually sit and watch an Argos game.

Actually better to watch the TO teams go down to defeat vs your own team, much much better.
Entertainment value = an all time low
