That would be CNN. But anyways, people often get on O' Shea for making bad decisions...but NOT challenging that P.I. was really dumb. Not sure what Trestman was thinking. That cost Toronto the game!!

I initially refused to vote on this forum question, but now will say "Yes". I believe Shreveler is the real deal. I think this guy will be a team' s #1 QB in 3 years...I just hope it is with us. He is smart (almost finished 2nd Masters degree), athletic, has a good arm, and has some leadership skills. The silver lining to Matt's injury is this guy will get much needed playing time which will only make us a better team.

Shreveler played like a rookie on that last drive, although I think we should have given our best player - Harris - the ball.

We stayed in it. Played it closer then I expected, but disappointed to lose like that. Defense gave in in the 4th. It's like Reilly willed the win, and there's nothing we could do about it. Somehow we have to get better on D. Offense will improve.

I second this. I would be disappointed with any loss, but I hope to see some potential with Shreveler.

I like your optimism, but remember...Shreveler is a rookie. Even Doug Flutie was less than 50 percent completion percentage in his 1st year in the CFL.

What?? There is no easy wins against Reilly led teams. If we squeak out a win, i will be extremely happy.

Hilarious! But also might be close to reality.

I like Rod Black... his broadcasting that is... -I remember him way back in his days doing sports on CKY, thought he was good.

James Wilder Jr. (I might pick him or Harris every week). Who is Calgary's RB? That would be another safer pick for another week.

Let's hope he is not overwhelmed. Edmonton starting D at times will come after him, and at other times will stack the box and make him throw. (Yeah, I know Captain Obvious). Just manage the game. A reasonable game would be no more than 1 pick with a few good drives. Let Bowman, Dressler, Harris catch short ones and make plays. Can we stay close with Edmonton in this one? It might take a minor miracle.

Gutsy move to start Shreveler. I didn't see it coming. Hope it doesn't hurt the guys long term development. But I do like it and, as has been said, he might have a higher ceiling than Ross. I'm excited for Thursday.

I'm sure he does. But it wasn't his choice to leave. We didn't offer him a contract. He deserved a decent raise and we wanted to start 3 Canadian O - lineman. Hopefully he can catch on elsewhere.

Or maybe Shreveler starts the season and does very well. I think if our defense shows up and we dominate on special teams maybe all that will be asked of our young QB ( whoever that may be) is to "maintain" the game...don't turn the ball over etc.

Ya gotta have Faith...

Unfortunately when I think about Robert Gordon I remember the year Geroy Simon wanted to come back to the CFL and Brendan Taman told him we didn't have room for him. Of course no one knew what a star Simon would become in B.C. The receivers we had at that point were great- Stegall, Arland Bruce, and Robert Gordon, but man oh man...adding Simon??!!

Anyone go to camp today? I need news...any news

Chris Shultz was just on 620 radio (Regina) talking to Rod Peterson. Shultz predicted Toronto and Winnipeg in this years Grey Cup.

Eager to see what Sayles can do in game action.

Although the TSN video package did include a shot of Winnipegs most famous fan - Dancin' Gabe!

Agreed. And it looks like it's 3rd string. Not sure if they want to keep Bennett around as a 3rd stringer, but if Ross doesn't show some promise then what else do they do?

Agreed on Tait. Decent highlight video above

Sure hope so... in answer to the topics question

Jay Walker...not here for long...but he sure looked good in the 2 games he got into. Was I ever sad when we traded for Kerwin Bell and then Walker refused to come back.
