GA Russell Posted June 6 Author Report Share Posted June 6 The Riders lost $1.1 million last year. This comes as a surprise to me, because although they were not a good team without Trevor Harris, they typically lead the league in t-shirt (etc.) sales. https://3downnation.com/2024/06/05/saskatchewan-roughriders-post-1-1-million-net-operating-loss-for-2023-cfl-season/ ***** The Elks revealed their 2024 home uniform yesterday.

GA Russell Posted June 6 Author Report Share Posted June 6 Just so you know, the Stanley Cup Finals begin Saturday - Edmonton Oilers vs. Florida Panthers. In 1995, Baltimore won the Grey Cup. Wags on Twitter enjoy pointing out that an American city has won the Grey Cup more recently than a Canadian city has won the Stanley Cup. By the way, every one of the nine CFL cities has won the Grey Cup more recently than any Canadian city has won the Stanley Cup. So you would expect that everyone in Canada is rooting for Edmonton, right? Well, no. The Panthers are the Miami team. It so happens that a great many Canadians spend their winters in that area. So, many Canadians will be rooting for them rather than the Oilers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA Russell Posted June 7 Author Report Share Posted June 7 Uh, oh. The league is using balls with a computer chip attached. The chip is attached alongside the laces, perhaps causing an imbalance. Every kicker in the league voted against it, but the league went ahead with the idea. On Thursday, Sergio Castillo had a rotten night, and David Cote missed a convert. https://3downnation.com/2024/06/07/sergio-castillo-rips-cfls-new-chipped-footballs-fellow-kickers-come-to-his-defence/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Tapscott Posted June 10 Report Share Posted June 10 I watched the Toronto/B.C. game yesterday. It was a good one. A CFL game is never over until the clock hits 0.00. The Argos' defense really tightened up in the 2nd half. Cameron Dukes looks like he might be good enough at QB until Chad Kelly returns.

John, you picked the game of the week! Not only was it a good game, but a big upset as far as I'm concerned. The pundits whose previews I posted last week pick BC to be a serious contender this year. My expectations of the Argos are low because they lost so many good players in free agency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
