In Huf we trust, but I hope he doesn't regret passing on Jordan Williams.

Stamps take UBC's Trivel Pinto in the 2nd round - Very talented receiver, but has had some off-field issues. Take it away Eric.

Leos take Canadian QB Nathan Rourke with their 2nd round pick - Had a pretty good season at Ohio University.

Prior to Ohio: Played one year at Fort Scott Community College where he played in all 11 games last season leading the Greyhounds to a 4-7 record…threw for 2,367 yards and 18 touchdowns…rushed for three touchdowns and was named First Team All-KJCCC…played his senior year of high school at Edgewood Academy in Elwood, Ala. going 13-0 and winning the AA Alabama State Championship…threw for 3,779 yards and 59 touchdowns while rushing for seven more touchdowns as a senior…played his first three years of high school football at Holy Trinity High School in Oakville, Ontario, Canada…lead Holy Trinity to its first OFSAA Bowl Championship in 2014.

CFL season won't begin until at least September, and Grey Cup to be played in city of the finalists with the better record*

(*which I think is better anyway, unless you just give it to Regina every year, because they go nuts no matter who is playing)

If we're playing football in December, we should be playing all games at BC Place (including the Grey Cup game).

I'm not sure how any other stadium would have better control over logistics.
Unless he's referring to it not being the Lions' call, but PavCo's? (landlord for BC Place)

Baby steps.

The CFL sent a memo to clubs Wednesday morning on a first and very limited phase of a return to training.

The letter “hereby permits the reopening of your fitness facilities for your local players to participate in individual training and receive medical treatment, under the following conditions: (1) The reopening of your facility is permitted by your local provincial and municipal public health authorities; and (2) Your club implements and complies with a “Return to Train” protocol for your fitness facility, which contains provisions at least as stringent as the provisions of the attached guidance document.”

Commissioner Ambrosie has done a terrible job during this pandemic, I don't fault the players for being pissed.

I'm thinking Eskimos. Edmonton Frackers has a nice ring to it.

They should blur out the "ra" for good measure.
