      The
      Dodgeball
      society,
      fronted
      by
      Josh
      Simon
      and
      Dan
      MacRae,
      meets
      every
      Sunday
      from
      6-8pm
     
     
      at
      the
      UPEI
      fieldhouse.
      The
      club
      primarily
      plays
      notable
      games
      such
      as
      team
      dodgeball
      (made
     
     
      popular
      through
      elementary
      school
      and
      the
      film
      starring
      Ben
      Stiller).
      The
      game
      begins
      with
      even
     
     
      teams,
      where
      players
      who
      are
      hit
      go
      to
      jail
      in
      the
      opposing
      court.
      In
      order
      to
      get
      out
      of
      jail,
      you
     
     
      must
      hit
      an
      opposing
      team
      member.
      Elimination
      dodge-ball
      is
      a
      similar
      game,
      except
      the
      losing
     
     
      team
      receives
      the
      first
      player
      they
      knocked
      into
      jail.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Another
      lesser
      known
      game
      the
      club
      plays
      is
      Cougar-ball,
      where
      there
      are
      no
      assigned
      teams
      and
     
     
      theoretically
      it's
      a
      free
      for
      all.
      Whenever
      you
      get
      hit
      by
      a
      ball
      you
      sit
      out,
      and
      when
      the
      person
     
     
      who
      put
      you
      out
      is
      hit,
      you
      return
      to
      the
      game.
      An
      interesting
      aspect
      about
      cougar-ball
      is
      the
      unof-
     
     
      ficial
      alliances
      created
      during
      the
      games.
      Such
      alliances
      could
      be
      started
      by
      simply
      catching
      a
      ball
     
     
      after
      it
      hit
      a
      colleauge
      thus
      keeping
      them
      in
      the
      game
      and
      sending
      the
      thrower
      to
      the
      sidelines.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      One
      of
      the
      most
      efficient
      rules
      in
      dodge-ball
      is
      the
      three-step-rule.
      Once
      you
      get
      a
      ball
      you
      may
     
     
      only
      take
      three
      steps
      with
      it
      before
      tossing
      the
      ball.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      In
      conclusion,
      the
      dodgeball
      club
      is
      truly
      a
      welcoming
      society
      and
      one
      of
      the
      leaders
      makes
      sure
     
    
   
   
    
     
      to
      introduce
      themselves
      personally
      to
      new
      members
      every
      week.
      Students
      across
      campus
      agree
     
     
      that
      dodge-ball
      is
      a
      great
      way
      to
      spend
      Sunday
      evenings
      and
      escape
      the
      stresses
      of
      the
      week.

      This
      week
      we
      start
      south
      of
      the
      border,
      and
     
     
      how
      about
      the
      Lions
      sticking
      it
      to
      Mike
      Vick
     
     
      and
      the
      Falcons?
      Detroit
      is
      a
      young
      team
      that
     
     
      won’t
      stand
      up
      in
      the
      playoffs,
      but
      you
      gotta
     
     
      love
      the
      heart
      they
      are
      showing.
      It
      will
      push
     
     
      them
      past
      Green
      Bay
      on
      Sunday.
      The
      game
     
     
      of
      the
      week
      is
      one
      many
      believe
      to
      be
      a
      pre-
     
     
      view
      of
      the
      Super
      Bowl:
      Seattle
      vs.
      New
     
     
      England,
      who
      have
      won
      a
      record
      19
      games
      in
     
     
      a
      row.
      It’s
      just
      a
      hunch,
      but
      I
      like
      Seattle
      in
     
     
      this
      one,
      they’ll
      be
      hungry
      after
      blowing
      a
     
     
      huge
      lead
      in
      their
      loss
      to
      the
      Rams
      on
      Sunday.
     
     
      Plus
      this
      streak
      has
      to
      end
      sometime.
     
     
      Speaking
      of
      contenders,
      the
      Chiefs
      will
      prove
     
     
      their
      0-3
      start
      was
      a
      fluke
      as
      they
      defeat
     
     
      Jacksonville,
      a
      team
      that’s
      falling
      back
      to
     
     
      earth
      after
      a
      hot
      start.
      Not
      speaking
      of
      con-
     
     
      tenders,
      Buffalo
      beats
      Miami
      in
      the
      glorious
     
     
      battle
      of
      the
      basement.
      As
      bad
      as
      the
      Bills
      are,
     
     
      the
      Dolphins
      are
      simply
      that
      much
      worse.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      In
      the
      world
      of
      Canadian
      Football,
      the
     
     
      Saskatchewan
      Roughriders
      are
      suddenly
      the
     
     
      hottest
      team
      in
      the
      league,
      reeling
      off
      4
     
     
      straight
      wins,
      despite
      being
      very
      inconsistent
     
     
      while
      on
      this
      tear
      to
      improve
      to
      .500.
      If
      this
     
     
      team
      can
      be
      consistent,
      they’ll
      be
      playing
      for
     
     
      the
      Grey
      Cup
      come
      late
      November.
      On
     
     
      Sunday
      they’ll
      battle
      Edmonton,
      a
      talented
     
     
      team
      that
      has
      been
      struggling
      as
      of
      late,
      and
     
     
      since
      the
      game
      is
      in
      Regina,
      I
      have
      to
      say
      the
     
     
      Rider
      Nation
      will
      beat
      the
      Eskimos
      and
      lock
     
     
      up
      2nd
      place
      in
      the
      West.
      In
      the
      East,
      Danny
     
     
      McManus
      looks
      to
      return
      to
      the
      playoffs
      as
     
     
      his
      Hamilton
      Tigercats
      should
      take
      care
      of
      a
     
     
      crippled
      Ottawa
      team
      that
      has
      more
      players
      in
     
     
      the
      infirmary
      than
      on
      the
      field.
