Really? I listened to H&L today and didn't hear that. They must have an audio vault.

FWIW- on today's H&L radio show, Lawless said he had information that Sask had dropped out of the bidding on Dressler. Apparently Taman topped out at a bit over $150,000 and is resigned to see Dressler go elsewhere.

Imagine if we had kept Milt, Bruce and Geroy together? Hindsight kills me sometimes. Considering the CFL was uncapped and Bauer forced Taman to a tight budget, I doubt that being possible considering the money that guys like Khari, Roberts, Sellers, Brown, and other elite players commanded at that time. I think people forget just how loaded that team was. Bobby Gordon might have been old, but he was a favourite target of Kharis in clutch time and you don't just cut that at the drop of a hat for a young guy with potential when you have another young guy loaded with potential in Arland Bruce already on the team. Plus you still had your super star SB in Stegall and a top RB in Roberts. There was still only one football around back then. I hate the comparison now because our defensive line right now isn't nearly as stacked as our receivers were back then. Aaah, the good old days....I'm getting all teary-eyed.

It may come down to the lack of genetic diversity in Saskatchewan leading to colour blindness.

I thought this too, but now I'm not sure. O'Shea was very non-committal about who plays between Kromah & Kuale. He said he wouldn't announce it until they're getting on the bus to go. IMO that sounds more promising for the new guy than the guy defending his job. If O'Shea starts Kuale again, we'd better check what he's been smoking- Kromah was very good last game as were all the linebackers.

Yeah 3RD...what the hell is up with that? I want to poke my eyes out. Don't blame 3Rd if you're becoming all moist and tingly.

There's a decent area in Regina? Are you referring to Saskatoon?

I don't know of anyone who likes them... They seem to be despised. What are you talking about? Didn't you see them televise that one guy wearing them in the stands? Don't know what you are talking about. I bought a new jersey (pre-order) and was high fiving a lot of people wearing the same jersey. PS I wasn't drunk and the other people were not in the mirrors in the washrooms. I assume that you and the other two people were in there retching?

Only if everything is organic.

This seems to be an epidemic this year despite the CFL resolution to protect quarterbacks.

Can't disagree with any of your thoughts, but Hall would definitely be an impact player. As would Bilikudi.

I'm just shocked that there was enough literacy in Saskatchewan to compose the text on the billboard- maybe they farmed that out (pun intended).

i would love to see Dressler here, if only to enrage to Roughie fans. We have to have a lot more cap wriggle room than they do, and since Nic Moore isn't exactly setting records here, Dressler might inspire him to break out. Anyone else disappointed in Moore's performance? He has been injured but geez, he hasn't been much of a game-breaker.

Well, it comes with its own private, individualized, outhouse. A two-storey outhouse, no doubt.

All this smacks of clumsy marketing hype.

Water ain't so great here either: To appreciate Winnipeg water, you have to try drinking the water in places like Phoenix, Denver, Tampa Bay and so forth.

This is relevant to my interests and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter. If I ever get out of "idle mode".......

Walters' quoted reaction may be a negotiating ploy. I expect Hall to be in Bomber colours (whatever the hell they will be) by the weekend. No sources, just idle speculation.

Neufeld is probably still adapting to being able to drink the tap water here in Winnipeg without being afraid that this is the year that all the slag from the Ipsco plant that has been dumped into pits near Regina will finally leach into the ground water wells.

I'll take any advantage we can get but maybe the Riders are prepping their excuses well in advance?

In reality, we got lucky. I have little doubt that had Collaros or Burris agreed, Walters and O'Shea would have been on them like a chicken on a bug. We have been the beneficiaries of Willy arriving at a time when O'Shea and Walters were at the helm and it was a good fit for all.

I'm with ISO on this one. We all have sensitive spots and for some of us, including me, being called a dog-abuser is almost as low a blow as you can get. I still think that Michael Vick is barely one step above a drug dealer. We recently lost a beloved member of our family- Toby, a standard poodle at the age of 11 to bone cancer. We held him in his final moments and he licked my wife's hand as the needle went in. Few humans have that sort of unconditional love and trust.

Demarco is out for the season with a torn acl. Then maybe the Ottawa thinking is to trade Burris for a prospect and a salary dump.

Real beer for guys would have bacon in it.

No question that Dressler would be an instant upgrade for any team in the league and money talks. Ottawa is talent-starved and would have likely won as many games with DeMarco as Burris, so why would they not make a very sweet offer to Dressler and if he accepts it, cut or trade Burris to get cap room. Montreal would probably give their first-borns to get Burris who would make them an instant contender.
