RAZOR BACK.

Don't say he didn't give you a chance!  RJCrash - Bob Coats of Arkadelphia, AR,
leader from WK 7-10 and WK 12 is back in first place with one week to go!

BUT, he now shares the lead with FanOfBlue - 44 year-old John Whyte,
a Printer from Staten Island, NY who has posted 15 points in the past 5 weeks.

What an incredible finish we are in for as at least 8 Poolers have a realistic chance
of winning this year's championship.

Gordon Blickstead was born and raised in the Irish immigrant neighborhood of Griffintown in Montreal, Quebec. He was the proud son of Charles, the city's Fire Chief.

As a 20-something bon-vivant, he began crooning jazz standards in smokey Montreal nightclubs under the name 'Sonny Columbo.' An impressive crooner, Sonny outshone Tony Bennett when they appeared on a 1957 CBC-TV special.

In the early 60's, Gordon retired his 'Sonny' persona for the practical job of teacher at Resurrection School in Montreal where he coached a 2nd string football team of varsity squad rejects to a winning record.

After a sabbatical on the beaches of Florida, Gordon began a career in radio during which he and colleague 'Auggie' began a close friendship until Gordon's death from cancer in August 2002.

Gordon most enjoyed a cold beer, a warm barstool and the Football Pool.

Despite his brief coaching success he was no more saavy at making picks than the rest of us. But, he'd no doubt get a bigger kick out of knowing that Sonny Columbo lives on through our Pool award!

Cheers, old friend.
