While suffering through yet another Redblacks loss, I completed the bulk of the work on the page dedicated to the Rough Riders seasons between 1945 and 1960.
1960 was a Grey Cup winning season so while gathering some details about that year, I took some time to also fatten up the Grey Cups page. I've now added a more standard game summary article by Jack Koffman for the Ottawa Citizen.
While looking for that additional content, I also came across the following article by Riders receiver Bobby Simpson. It appeared the Monday after the Grey Cup game in his hometown newspaper, the Windsor Star. As you'll see, it's essentially his take on what caused Ottawa to be capable of taking home the Cup and provides an interesting perspective, I think.
