figures, it was the Canadian Football League, and it happened twice.
For the second time in a year, a Canadian Football League team has drafted a dead player.
The Montreal Alouettes selected defensive end James Eggink of Northern Illinois in the fifth round of the league's Canadian college draft today, only to learn a few hours later that Eggink died of cancer last December.
Last April, the Ottawa Rough Riders sought defensive end Derrell Robertson, who had died on Dec. 5, 1994.
it happened in the NHL as well.
D'oh Canada!
