Lol, He's a brave man.  Not terribly smart, but brave.

Does Luc Mullinder know that Regina already has a village idiot? Goes by the name Rod Pederson.

Moron states his opinion on social media. Nothing to see here folks..

Hey as long as we are making lists.....where to rank Mullinder for CDN draft busts ?

I saw that tweet this morning and wondered how long it would be before someone brought it up here to properly mock it.

“Look at me look at me!”

pretty much all that is. If that’s truly how he thinks, he’s got some brain injuries from his playing days.

Mostly taxpayers thru all 3 different levels of government & some private money. They're talking about building a "multi purpose" stadium of 24,000 so the feds will get involved so it's not about funding pro football (yeah, right)....

That list is just so stupid. Not worth even discussing.

Only way anything gets done in Atlantic Canada.

Govt  projects and or generous subsidies is seen as Plan A. Capitalist and entrepreneurial spirit are like four leaf clovers.

So, the feds will spend money on a new stadium in Halifax  while telling people in Ottawa, Winnipeg, Regina & Calgary that they won't give a cent to a project like that? Nice.  Not surprised though as we know that there are different rules (especially) for Quebec & the Maritimes.

I question whether the Feds will do it after denying other centres and the provincial governments don't have the $.

The poll on CFL.ca right now asks "Will James Franklin play for the Argos in 2018?"

91% of the fans say no. I bet about 90% of the vote is desperate Rider fans. We will find out soon enough.

They discovered internet in Regina about a decade ago and they've been insufferable ever since!

That was Harper. Wouldn't surprise me to see Trudeau do it.

Something is fishy with that... because the other day when I was on the site and voted it was 85% of the votes going for Franklin to play in Toronto.  

I can see Toronto signing Franklin. He knows Ray is near the end of his career , with a history of injuries limiting his play. Financially they can either give him a deal heavily loaded with playtime money or with the belief that either Franklin or Ray’s money can be hidden off the Cap on the IR.

I don't honestly believe the deal would have happened if Popp and co. didn't have an understanding with Franklin already. However, I recall something about BC dangling Reilly in front of the Bombers prior to reaching FA without allowing us to speak with him/his agent first... so I suppose it's possible Popp is rolling the dice without making a gentleman's agreement first... which would be very foolish as Sask does seem like the appropriate place for Franklin to wind up.

How much has Franklin actually played?

Has he played enough for people to know if he's going to be any good? Or is it just a tempest in a teapot?

If he really is as good potentially as fans think, I think they'll find a way to keep him.

Ricky Ray is one hit away from his career being finished.

All players are one hit away from their careers being finished.

The buzz around Franklin is similar to the buzz around Reilly when the Eskimos signed him. No guarantee's, but it's a pretty good indicator that teams think that Franklin has what it takes.
