    Interestingly, this candidate had thoughts on MB elex as well...... said that it should be an absolute blowout for the NDP, but they have a nearly un-electable leader, which is going to make it a lot closer than it should be. Said Brian P's insistence on maintaining his Costa Rican residence for nearly half the year would be unthinkable in AB Poli, and that Heather S's inability to communicate has been her downfall. Was laughing about how poor of a public speaker she is....said "say what you want about our current leader (Danielle S) but she's at least a good public speaker"..... 

    On a somewhat side note, a federal politician that I was with at the same event told me that he cancelled his Edmonton CFL tix after more than 20 years because he was so disgusted with the name change to Elks and "caving to this unhinged political correctness"........sigh.

    Living in Sask makes me happy to have a stable government that has stayed away from doing absolutely stupid things. Manitoba, I have no clue which way it will go but it is going to be close, if the Liberals in Manitoba had any assemblance of a leader they would force a minority government but that will not happen. As for Alberta, Danielle acts like a dumber Trump.

    The Bomber House is at the REAL Center with all the other team parties except Edmonton as usual.

    That is touchdown Manitoba. There is usually a bar that the Bombers set up shop with a merchandise shop for the weekend. For example in Calgary it was Hudson's on 5th St.

    When my son was at SFU back in 2014, they converted some of the dorms on the upper floors in one of the towers on campus to an actual hotel. People could stay there. My wife went to visit Tyler & she stayed at the dorms...errr... hotel on campus. They had concierge service & cleaning staff. My wife said the hotel was nice. Maybe the U of R is doing the same? With the lack of provincial govt funding, across the country, universities have to be creative to raise money. 

    The Dorms have been a bit empty since COVID as many people are still happy doing remote learning that is being offered.

    Never played football with any players. In Saskatchewan played Sr Mens Basketball with Dressler and Shomari Williams. Dressler was as fast as you think he was. I would grab the rebound, I played Center, look up and could just launch the ball and Dressler would be behind their guys. It was crazy how fast and athletic he was. Now on the flip side, Shomari, was the softest player I have played against. Well in practice at least, I could push him around and get position in the post on him without trying.....it was actually pretty sad and likely why he did not have much of a career.

    There are guys out there. Not every qb is a rookie. They have to find someone. Elks have at least 2 qbs who may help. There's the USFL. There are free agent qbs out there.

    The only  real veteran backup who has been a starter with that level pedigree is Harris. And one who has some experience that looks like a starter, Jake Maier.

    The Elks QB's are questionable if they will be starter level

     

    Only other options floating around are Matty Ice or Streveler.
