Would have loved to see Tom Casey play.

I've always wondered why they don't try to put a team in London, Ontario. They have a good 10,000 seat stadium just refurbished for the Univ of Western Ontario Mustangs which probably could be expanded to 24,000 & the City itself is as big or bigger with access to a larger population base than Halifax.

Bothy sides leak info.

More to that. We have a league where the Commissioner has now taken to lying publicly about the state of the CBA negotiations. He also says he's pushing for Halifax to be a tenth team yet we've heard zero, zip, nada from any ownership group or civic & provincial politicians out there confirming this. Is the previous ownership group still around? No plans to build a stadium anywhere. Matter of fact there's no talk at all about a stadium. If the CFL does grant a tenth team to the Maritimes, It should be Halifax with a population of close to 500,000. However, this is the CFL. They're liable to grant an expansion team to Gander, NL if someone offers the money. Then there's the current CBA negotiations & the shocking news that the CFL's Bargaining Committee led by our own Wade Miller & Scott Mitchell of the Ti Cats proposed eliminating the Canadian ratio & no increase in the salary cap during a 10 year CBA which is absolutely ludicrous. Does this look like a league that has any kind of solid business plan for the future? Or are the Governors fllapping around like fish on a dock out of water? We now have 4 teams that we know of that want to change the game to more of an American version or 4 down football completely with an American sized field & 4 downs. Winnipeg, Calgary, Hamilton & Toronto. Chances are the other 5 teams are in favour as well. We just don't know it. So, what's going on? Changing the rules as a precursor for the CFL to possibly merge with the USFL & XFL? Propose a long term CBA with restricted salaries??? Is the NFL behind this? We just don't know yet. Not a good look for the CFL to be pulling this **** a week before camps start.

TYrone Jones died much too young. Such a sad story. He was so full of life when he played. It was always interesting (& funny) to watch him between plays getting under opposition players skins by always having the last word. Quite a linebacking crew in the 80's. Greg Battle, Aaron Brown, Delbert Fowler, Tyrone Jones, Gary Moten, Vernon Pahl. Darrell Patterson, Paul Randolph, Frank Robinson, James "Wild, Wild" West & Dan Wicklum. These were our linebackers between 1984-90 ion alphabetical order.. There's a reasom we won 3 Grey Cups during that time. They were collectively the best & most dominant in the CFL during that time.

You guys realize that on TSN this past Tuesday night, Randy Ambrosie lied to Farhan Lalji & all CFL fans watching the draft about the state of the CBA negotiations saying they were proceeding well. When Lalji asked him how they were going he made sure to mention that the talks had got off to a great start & how both sides wanted to get a deal done. When Lalji mentioned that the CFLPA had asked for a strike mandate from its members Ambrosie just passed it off as part of the negotiations like it was no big deal. He made no mention that the Players Association & the BOG's were at odds over ratio reduction & the CFL wanting a 10 year deal with no salary cap increase during the life of that agreement. He knew things were going badly but he still lied. Ambrosie smiled & lied to everyone. That is our Commissioner & the face of the CFL. You can't believe anything he says. Ambrosie has no credibility. It's no wonder the Players don't like or trust him. If he can lie to us publicly on tyelevision without any feelings of guilt, imagine what he's like in private dealing with the CFLPA.

Thanks to the "Freedumb Trucker Convoy" which scared the **** out of politicians everywhere, I thinbk that we cam assume that there'll be very little restrictions in the future. No required masking, either. I've stopped wearing a mask because here in Calgary, 99.9% of people don't mask up or social distance anymore. If I wear a mask it won't protect me or anyone around me, so why bother? It's like 2018 all over again. Last Saturday, we went to a play at the Arts Commons Theatre downtown. After the play, we took an elevator down to the street level. My wife & I got on by ourselves on the top floor. We stopped on the second floor where about 7 or 8 people got on & we were literally inches away from one another crowded in like sardines. I hadn't been in a situation like that since the start of the pandemic so I felt very uncomfortable & to be frank, I was bloody pissed off. Common sense & courtesy would have dictated that some should have waited for another elevator but nope., they all had to squeeze in Luckily, we both got off on the main floor as the rest of them carried on to the underground parking lot. I said to my wife, "Well, that was uncomfortable. This could be a mini super spreader." The people who got on were joking & laughing as they didn't seem to care very much. Crazy world. I don't need to get sick because a bunch of total idiots don't care. Six days no symptoms so far so hopefully we got off lucky.

"JC Abbott is a UBC student, youth coach & life long CFL fanatic." In other words, a BC Lions fan boy which is why any article on 3DN that's written has little or no credibility. Funny how they won the Draft, isn't it? Coincidence??

And they went 11-5 & got to the Grey Cup in 1965 & 8-7-1 in 1966 good for second place in the West. Injuries & retirements had more to do with the team going 7-9 in 1963 as well as having a 1-14-1 record in 1964. Grant was able to bring the team back when everyone thought they were finished. He hadn't lost the locker room yet. Eight winning seasons in ten. His voice was still heard.

Bud Grant never did in Winnipeg.

We got his brother. He may be our future safety. i think Desjarlais will take the NFL PR route if it happens.

I remember the 1983 season. We had rookie Reaves & Kehoe tearing it up mid season that year along with Tom Clements from Hamilton for disgruntled qb Dieter Brock. Throw in John Hufnagel from the Riders as the backup in a trade where Cal Murphy sent them QB Nicky Hall, Rec Nate Johnson & OL Jason Riley. Those 2 trades changed the Bombers & made them instant Grey Cup contenders when before they were a team struggling to make the playoffs.

Be well, iHeart. Hopefully, for you both it's nothing serious.
