Calgary Stampeders News Roundup for November 6, 2013 Cornish and Paredes honoured Jon Cornish is the offensive and Canadian player of the month and Rene Paredes is the special teams player of the month for October/November. http://stampeders.com/video/index/id/92305 Stephen: No shortage of drama for Stamps during off week There are no games on the Stamps calendar this weekend. They, like football fans everywhere, will get to sit back and watch the two Semi-Final games in Guelph and Regina. When all that is said and done, the heavy lifting will begin for the Stampeders in their quest for the Grey Cup. Frotunately for them, they'll have plenty of time to game plan for whoever their opponent will be in advance of the Nov. 17 Western Final at McMahon Stadium. http://www.cfl.ca/article/stephen-no-shortage-of-drama-for-stamps-during-off-week Calgary Stampeders: Jeff Fuller has chip on shoulder Just two years ago, Jeff Fuller never would have imagined suiting up for the Calgary Stampeders. And with good reason. The Texas A&M receiver was the apple of the NFL’s eye, a product of the ever-present desire for big, talented pass-catchers who present one-on-one matchup problems. The 6-foot-4, 220-pounder rewrote the Aggies record book as junior in 2010, setting new marks for catches (72), yards (1,066) and receiving touchdowns (12), earning recognition as a finalist for the Biletnikoff Award as the nation’s top receiver. http://www.calgarysun.com/2013/11/05/calgary-stampeders-jeff-fuller-has-chip-on-shoulder Calgary Stampeders win monthly awards Jon Cornish blew out 29 candles on his birthday cake Tuesday. If the Calgary Stampeders running back’s wish happened to be a double-dip when it came to the CFL player-of-the-month awards, it came true. http://www.calgarysun.com/2013/11/05/calgary-stampeders-win-monthly-awards
