Maybe we should have hired George as Commisioner of the CFL. Imagine the pipeline of Latino baseball players from Cuba we could have got?

What is it with Randy Ambrosie & scarves? Is this some kind of fashion statement? My wife wears scarves all the time. Even at her office at work. Perhaps Randy is working on the feminine side of his manhood here. Is this similar to Brian Burke being too lazy or forgetting how to tie his tie so he just wears it loosely around his neck?

Costanza got Steinbrenner hooked on Calzone's as well.

Mike Kelly is nodding with both understanding & approval of that statement.

I wouldn't even put him up in Top 100.

Usually grooming a tailback means signing them & finding the best one to play. Then cutting the guy he replaces. Don't think we're there yet with Harris. Besides, he'll never be cut. He'll retire.

No, he meant the Argos. I'm sure being in the steel industry, Stern is from Hamilton. That was such a Hamilton response & it was an hilarious moment. Randy Ambrosie just about fell out of his chair when he heard that. Stern - "Can I say that?" Ambrosie - "You just did!!" Stern was asked about Percival Molson Stadium & if the new ownership would commit to building a new stadium. He answered that he would concentrate on getting the fans back in the stands & then once the team is profitable look at building a new facility. No mention was made of the Als moving to a new baseball stadium if Montreal gets a MLB team back. Stern said that they would be "patient owners". That is, they will hire the right football people & put them into place & pay them to make football decisions. They will not be involved in the day to day football or business operations of the team. They may give advice from time to time but they will leave decision making to the people they hire. Bob Young was in attendance but at the back of the room out of sight. Stern paid tribute to Young saying he helped he & Spiegel through the purchase of the Als as well as calming him down this morning as he was extremely nervous as he is not a public speaker. he then asked Bob if the Als could have their draft picks back which got a rise out of those in the room in referencing the one sided trade that sent Johnny Manziel & 3 first round picks to the Als last year. They got involved in discussions with the league 3 1/2 weeks ago. This has been a fast process, said Stern. Ambrosie then explained that there was delay in the sale because the business groups he met for the most part were under financed. Or the principles of who were involved would change from meeting to meeting. With Spiegel & Stern they've been business partners for 42 years so the dynamic won't change. Stern said the team is well funded & money is not an issue. Ambrosie said they met with 7 to 10 groups wanting to buy the Alouettes.

Taylor Loffler in the Top 10?

The only thing I worry about is if it is a new owner that will be great for the league but they'll fire up their GM search again & grab Ringmaiden.

As per twitter from CFL Communications. Ownership announcement, perhaps?

No, the Bombers are in negotiations for the coaches they want back. And any new ones they bring in.

Careful what you wish for. Built in Sarcophagus.

Costanza's available.

Poor Brady. Poor Belichek. My heart bleeds.

Changed it for you.

It really is too bad. Chat was better than the GDT but wbbfan is right, it's dying.

He hasn't signed there yet.

1990 to 2019 is 29 years,

I think O'Shea has decided to announce his complete staff rather than individual assistants & coordinators. I'm sure the OC will be Buck & we'll find that out soon enough.

I never thought Jennings was that good even when he was putting up big numbers passing. He was always making bad decisions & throws that cost the Lions games in the win column. Once his production fell off the mistakes kept happening & he was exposed as the lousy qb that he always was. Jennings doesn't come across being the sharpest knife in the drawer. Yet, he'll probably still find a place to play. His athleticism will cause some OC to think he can resurrect his career off the scrap heap which won't happen.

Gordie Howe playing goal. Now, that's weird.

I'm talking about his retirement. His body was finished as a player.

Lulay's body was broken down. I don't think he could have played anymore even if he wanted to.

Mr Dee missed a huge storm in Kelowna this week. From the photos I saw, looks to be about 30 cms of fresh snow. Power outtages all over Kelowna.

All 3 games were important for me. For different reasons as all the games told a different story. The Semi Final: Going into a Bomber wasteland called McMahon Stadium & beating the highly favoured Stamps in a playoff game there for the first time since 1965. First skeleton kicked out of the closet. Defeating the Riders in their House in the Western Final to avenge the 1972 Western Final loss to that team & have the ball hit the crossbar in the end zone on the last play of the game was as flukey as the Riders winning in 1972 at Winnipeg Stadium with their last play wide FG attempt being kicked in & out of the end zone 3 times, only for the Bombers to be called for No Yards allowing Riders kicker jack Abendschan a second chance 15 yards closer to make the kick, for us to lose &leaving me to agonize over that game for 47 years. Second skeleton chucked out of the closet. Then to dominate the Ti Cats the way we did unexpectedly so we could finally feel the joy of winning Lord Earl Grey's Cup for the first time in 29 years. Third & final skeleton tossed out. The Curse was finally expunged. All 3 hold as much importance for me. It was a magical run...
