FILE - In this Nov. 14, 2016 file photo, Guatamalan Elvin Vazquez, center, holds a Haitian girl migrating with her family, at a migrant shelter in Tijuana, Mexico. A surge in border crossings and a lack of immigration jail space have prompted the federal government to start releasing Haitian immigrants who have been entering the country in large numbers in recent months, backtracking on a pledge to jail the migrants. A U.S. government official said the decision to free Haitians arriving in Arizona and California is in response to a lack of jail space. Thousands of Haitians have arrived at the U.S. border with Mexico in recent months, many after traveling 7,000 miles by foot, taxi and bus. (AP Photo/Gregory Bull, File)

Calm, confident Jonathon Jennings leading B.C. Lions into West Division final
B.C. Lions' quarterback Jonathon Jennings gestures as he leaves the field after defeating the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the CFL western semifinal playoff game in Vancouver, B.C., on November 13, 2016. Solomon Elimimian has heard plenty of motivational halftime banter. The script between teammates tends to be pretty similar in most cases - players imploring each other to continue fighting if they're behind or to keep the foot on the gas if they're ahead. But every so often there's an unexpected twist. With the B.C. Lions down 13 points at the break in last Sunday's playoff game, soft-spoken second-year quarterback Jonathon Jennings stood up in the locker-room and calmly let everyone know things were going to be fine if the club stayed the course.
