Heartbreak once again for Bombers in Grey Cup

A baker’s dozen of sports questions, plus one, some of them penetrating, some of them just weird

Key points from this story:

• Bombers suffer another Grey Cup disappointment
• Ovechkin chasing Gretzky's goal record
• McDavid's career points vs. Stanley Cup
• Nurses: multi-sport athletic family
• Bedard's draft pick family connection
• Scheffler tops PGA Tour earnings

Will the Winnipeg Blue Bombers pass on next year's Canadian Football League playoffs, saying 'No thanks. The annual heartbreak in the Grey Cup game is just too much to bear.'

After missing up to six weeks with a broken leg, will Alex Ovechkin score 27 more goals this year, giving him 895, one more than the all-time recored held by Wayne Gretzky? Or will it take a few games next season for the Russian superstar to become No. 1?

If the Dodgers sign Juan Soto, adding him to a lineup featuring Ohtani, Freeman, Betts, etc., can Major League Baseball just give the current World Series champs a bye into the 2025 World Series?
