This post is dedicated to Milt Stegall. If you don't know who Milt Stegall is, you're probably from outside Canada. For sure you don't live in Winnipeg. (Not that I live in Winnipeg, but I used to.)
Milt Stegall is a receiver for the greatest football team in the Canadian Football League, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Milt has been playing for 13 years, all with the Bombers. Last week he scored two touchdowns, the 138th and 139th of his career. He now has more touchdowns than any other CFL player in history.
There's a video that records the historical moments from last week. (Or click here to get it in alternate formats.)
One of the reasons I like Milt so much is his clever nicknames... He was once "Chocolate Milt", "Magic Milt", "Turtle Man", and this season, in an homage to Ocho Cinco himself, Milt wanted to be called "Quatre-Vingt-Cinq". However, my favourite nickname of course, is when he branded himself "Milt Stegall, Touchdown Beagle".
