ESKIMOS OFFICIALS TALK DOWN
SHOVEL-WIELDING PLAYER
Defensive End Xzavie Jackson was welcomed back on the practice field after a bizarre fight Thursday with teammate and Eskimo centre Aaron Fiacconi that led to Mr. Jackson going after him with a shovel.
Ah, that is the beauty of the Canadian Football League. Its weirdness.
The victim, Mr. Fiacconi, said that getting attacked with a shovel is all part of the wild emotions of a violent game, but noted, "We have to have some kind of control out there. It got away from us a little bit yesterday and it won't happen again."
Thank goodness for gun control.
