So an unnamed source (supposedly from Alberta) was quoted on 620 radio Regina today saying that "If the Riders sign Zach Collaros they are going to run the table on the rest of the league" - meaning, I guess, that they would go 18-0. Now I have heard ridiculous delusional things from Rider fans and from Rider media but this one might take the cake. Weirdest part is the guy supposedly is not a Rider fan - although I think he must have recently drank some Regina water or something.

Zach Collaros (sp?) still a wild card out there. If I was Sask or Montreal I would go after the guy...although unless Montreal improves their personel around him it would be another Hamilton scenario. Just saying that Sask may not be finished their QB caroseell.

Good for Reinhold! As long as no one hires him as a head coach/G.M. or anything like that he should be alright...oh shoot, too late...

Once a great franchise...now a sad joke

I doubt another start up league would ever work...at least not for any significant amount of time unless it's on a much smaller scale. The NFL is hurting though...lots of people turned off by anthem protests (Roger Godell needed to do something earlier). In some stadiums you can get some very cheap tickets.

I mistakedly thought the early start to the schedule was due to the whole season being moved up...looks like it's moved up only because of the 3rd bye week. Not sure I like a 3rd bye week...hope it actually does something for player safety

I'm sure glad the Bomber don't play July 28th. I'd hate to tell my daughter I can't make her wedding

The good news is training camp is closer... The other good news is I can now make my summer plans to visit Manitoba

I guess the old saying "The real season starts at Labour Day" no longer applies.

Schedule out? Season moved up 2 weeks? Wow this Commissioner doesn't fool around!

If I am Franklin, there is no way I sign in Toronto unless Ray is gone or my signing bonus is like 500K...

-Free Agency doesn't start till February 15th -We had the 2nd fewest free agents -We've already re-signed a few guys - It's the off-season...a little patience is needed

Talk is the CFL may promote Andrei Preau (sp?). Sadly, we then would no longer hear, "Turd down!"

Doesn't the Stanley Cup usually end in early June (way too late IMO)? They could still start the regular season, say, in the 2nd week of June and not conflict, right? Open camp in early May.

Grey Cup was on November 19th in 2006. That's not early. I would like to see them start at least 2 weeks earlier to start with.

Maybe we can get permission to talk to Mark Nelson now that he is no longer DC.

They are not in the same stratosphere as House or Poplawski, but I understand what you mean...I think bringing Demski in here next year is a definite possibility - providing he comes in cap friendly

You are right. He should really develop an invisibility formula so when guys go to hit him he can just disappear...

So now if the Lions have a bad start to the season will the following happen? Hervey: "Wally, you're fired!" Buono: "Okay. Ed, you're fired!"

Confirmed. Well, they could have done worse...

He should sign as our back-up...thats the best option

In the end its' the cockiness of BLM going for it all that cost Calgary a chance.

Ha! BLM, you suck! 2 years. 2 loses.

We already signed Rick House...twice in fact!

My favorite all time coach with the Bombers. Yes he benefited from some good scouting and good g.m. in Cal Murphy but he was a players coach. I believe it was James West who once said of him, "I would throw myself in front of a bus for him." Doubt he would ever come back to the 'Peg though.
