    Hey, he could still attend our fine stadium as a fan.

     

    For anyone else who wants a bit of background on Hill (per wikipedia, I'm lazy);

    Hill signed with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers of the Canadian Football League in May of 1988, where he became a dominant player. He was the team's starting cornerback for 5 seasons and was part of two Grey Cups championships. He received CFL All-Star honors in 1989 and 1990.

    He retired at the end of the 1992 season, with team records for most career interceptions (47), most interceptions in one game (5) and career blocked punts (8). In 1996, he was inducted into the Winnipeg Football Club Hall of Fame.

    Wrap your head around that for a minute. Just. Five. Seasons.

    I would pay top dollar to see milt and hill do 1 on 1 drills with dunigan throwing the ball. Shut up and take my money,  money.  Rod hill is one of the greatest bombers the city/ culture of the team has been lucky enough to have. Walby and rod no 1 and no 2. Khari was high on that list some time ago as well. 

    A buddy and I ran into Rod Hill years ago at Buffalo Bills. Super awkward, we went up to him and were like "Hey Mr Hill! So 5 picks in a single game huh?? You were awesome!" He was like "Yeah, thanks guys". Lol. So we bought him a beer.

    Had to spend the week in sakabush for work. Needless to say i got my bike stolen and couldn't find a single interesting thing to do.

    Notable suggestions from locals favorite things to do: go for a walk, go to the movie theater, and, "wait till Sunday cause there's a riders game"

    On the drive back i listened to the riders pregame and they had some jewels like "the riders are the second best team in the league" and "the riders have the best secondary in the league" 

    I just cannot reinforce riders success because as soon as they are good TSN gives them hand jobs every day and they go back to thinking they're the greatest fans of all time.

    I hope Calgary just mops the floor with them

    Their "journalists" are the biggest bunch of homer jagoffs on the planet. They dont even pretend to be mildly unbiased. Its embarrassing.

    What if I told you Westerman was one sack away from being tied for the sack lead in the CFL.. He was doing his job just fine!

    Like i said Westerman has been alright but he tends to disappear for stretches and i'd wager he has many more penalty yards than sack/tackles for loss yards. I dont mind Westerman but i'd love a true difference maker on the outside ala Philip Hunt a few years back.

    Sadly we're stuck dressing him until Mulumba decides he wants to play but man he is just BAD.

    Our d-line still concerns me. Powell probably would have had 200 yards if the game was closer. Poop needs to get back in there, not sure what the hell is going on with that. We also lack that outside QB destroyer. Westerman had his moments but we really lack that big play guy on the outside that gets to/disrupts the QB with regularity.
