Calgary Stampeders fullback Teyo Johnson was in an altercation during the DJ Tiesto concert early yesterday morning in Calgary, and was speaking to police officers who had been called to the scene to break up the fight at about 1:30 a.m. "I didn't even know I got stabbed until the cops got there," Johnson said yesterday afternoon. "One officer showed me my blood on his hand and said, 'Hey, you've been stabbed.' [Medical staff at Foothills Hospital] told me another centimetre or two and I would be dead. Luckily it hit my hip bone and went up about eight centimetres instead of straight through into my intestine." Suffice to say, Johnson missed yesterday's Stampeders practice, the final full workout in advance of tomorrow's Canadian Football League West Division semi-final with the Edmonton Eskimos. Stampeders coach and general manager John Hufnagel said Johnson was "very doubtful" to play tomorrow. The police have no suspects. Johnson was a 2003 second-round draft pick of the Oakland Raiders.

A dee jay... who sucks... I actually thought it was a bruce springsteen concert. I'll probably watch a bit of the cfl playoffs tomorrow... Awful day to have them take place though, on nfl football sunday, they really gotta move those playoff games to saturdays.
im curious to know the motive behind the stabbing actually... Teyo didn't even know he was stabbed. It was just some random act? I guess...
