Introducing Overtime Central Quick Links

Friday, December 1st, 2006 by Jon

Overtime Central is pleased to announce a Quick Links feature. The most recent Quick Links can be found in the sidebar and will display in descending order. A feed is supplied for those that want to track updates through a feed reader.

Quick Links will consist of links to media stories or posts that interest me with a quick commentary on the subject. This will allow for more timely posts of breaking news and stories that I want to bring to the attention of Overtime Central readers. Full posts and Notebook entries will be reserved for longer commentary on topics.

We hope you enjoy this feature and we encourage you to subscribe. This is just one new feature preceding our re-launch coming early next year.

Road to Grey Cup Pool Winner Declared

Sunday, November 19th, 2006 by Jon

Overtime Central is pleased to announce that team Kenton “MaryJ” Keith, coached by Chad Olynick, pulled out the victory in the 2006 Road to Grey Cup Pool. After a poor start, Olynick powered to second and first place finishes the final two weeks to take the championship by three points with 87 points. Olynick takes home $77 for the victory.

Tying for second place was 4goodtimecall(403)340-xxx (name modified to protect the not so innocent), coached by Jim Fedyk and CupCountdown, coached by Cindy Kreutzer, who both finished with 84 points. Both teams counted 40 points the final week to move up one spot and a share of the money. They split second and third place prizes of $33 or $16.50 each.

Congratulations to the winners. Winnings will be credited to your accounts within a week. Overtime Central thanks everyone for their participation. Look for changes at overtimecentral.ca coming before we return (we hope) for NHL playoff contests.

    Brunt: Canadian Football HoF Controversy Good For Hall → Maybe, but the Canadian Football Hall of Fame does not try to be a shrine for baby boomers to take their kids like the Hockey Hall of Fame. Interest in Canadian football is much more in the now, with little interest in the past and players gone by. #
