• Devier Posey: Posey is one of the Toronto Argonaut’s most reliable offensive weapons. He’s also a medical miracle. As a baby, Posey was diagnosed with a rare immune deficiency. Brian Williams sits down with Posey to discuss his life and new foundation, whose mission is the utilization of athletics to provide nutrition education, food modeling, and physical fitness opportunities for youth and their families.
• Joshua Bell – The Alchemist: Calgary Stampeders standout Joshua Bell is the anchor and vocal leader of the CFL’s most intimidating defence. A chemistry major from Baylor University, Bell is an alchemist in the locker room and on the field, using his educational history to experiment and build strategy. Dave Naylor examines the mind of Joshua Bell and why he’s so unique in the world of football.
• The 1981 Grey Cup: The 1981 Grey Cup was expected to be a mismatch between the powerful Edmonton Eskimos and the “happy just to be there” Ottawa Rough Riders. At 22.5 point underdogs, nobody gave Ottawa a chance. Brian Williams speaks with Riders’ quarterback JC Watts, rugged tight end Tony Gabriel, clutch receiver Pat Stoqua, bruising linebacker John Glassford and reliable kicker Gerry Organ about how they came within a few seconds of pulling off the greatest upset in Grey Cup history.
