i was at an eskimos game earlier tonight and the esks beat winnipeg 25-7 for their first win at home and second win of the year. winnipeg is also at two wins and nine losses. 29,499 people were there (that includes me) at the end of the third quarter bryan hall marked joey moss' 50th birthday (his birthday is in 10 days). he was presented with a birthday cake. joey has downe syndrome and is the locker room attendant for the esks and oilers. it was wayne gretzky who got him the job with the oilers in 1985 after talking with dwayne mandrusiak and sparky kulchisky. all the fans, the players and the cheer team sang happy birthday to him. so a great night.
