The NDP balanced a budget by taking from the rainy day fund, hydro and riding rising transfer payments.

Tough team to get his chance against. Hoping Cotton does well.

Tino is the starter for sure? Really, for a whole game this time? A quarter?

This past off-season was pretty similar to 1999 and even then the club had Milt. In 1999, we improved to 6 wins and picked up some pieces. We've done the same this year.

Nealon Greene refused to talk to Taman?

Having Judy running the city with Selinger running the province scares the heck out of me. Stuff like this makes me wish I was closer to retirement so I could leave the province.

Free agency and Nat OL usually don't go hand in hand. Generally if they make it to free agency they're not that good. Westerman would be a nice upgrade as a starter on the DL with Thomas backing him up. Hope Newman comes back healthy. I could see him playing the spot Sherman is but at a higher level. At minimum, I think Newman means Unumba is gone.

What are the chances Holmes makes free agency?

My understanding was he watched the film because Ryland Wickman's dad gave him the tip, nothing to do with Ray.

Taman also watched game film of Charlie Roberts but didn't bother to contact the QB in that film, Ricky Ray.

Oh I want to win so bad. Anybody else annoyed by Jovon Loudmouth's comments about how Ottawa is still positive and the locker room isn't like the 2013 Bombers? Dude is a buttmunch.

I'd take an upgrade on Marcel myself but I have been wrong before.

Who plays next week after Doege sucks versus Calgary, Vandestone?

So let's say the Riders finish 3rd. Can they win in Edmonton and Calgary with a potentially rusty Durant?

Shame for him and the Lions.

On the "non-fumble", I watched the TSN feed when I got home. He catches the ball, takes a step and is taking step 2 when he fumbles. How is that not a catch and fumble?

How can the Command Centre not have the replay when it was on the ******* jumbotron?

Let's assume Durant comes back for the playoffs: 1. How good is he going to be, playing his first game in two months. 2. I think the Riders finish 3rd. Can they win in Edmonton and Calgary in back to back weeks? 3. How susceptable is he to a reinjury if they rush him back?

I really liked this one. I thought it was creative. I did think the one calling Rider fans horrible people was in poor taste.

In the off-season, Walters need to focus on OL, Linebackers and receivers. Enough said.

This is a transcript of an actual Edmonton Eskimos radio ad: Transcription: "You know that guy, the irritating Saskatchewan Roughriders fan. Sorry, that's redundant: the Saskatchewan Roughriders fan. He's loud, obnoxious, and somehow manages to brag about his team winning a dominant four championships in just over a century. That guy. Well, he's going to the Eskimo game this Friday, and you should go too and watch his entire world crumble around him! Support your Eskimos! Tickets to the game are at Ticketmaster, starting at $32.50." I liked this ad.

Dieter had Tom Scott, Eugene Goodlow, Joe Pop, Rick House and James Murphy among others at various times to throw to. Some pretty good receivers.

Not sure they need Boudreaux and don't like moving down in the draft two years in a row.

Are you sure because his name isn't Weston Dressler?

1. Willy has been better than Collaros this season. 2. One year or two years of Glenn is not worth a potential 10-15 years of Gossen. 3. Heck 1-2 years of Glenn is not worth a potential 10 years of Pruneau.
