They went with the saw blade, which I can live with because of the R. If it is the real deal, get ready to embrace it people.

I guess Roy Shivers/Danny Barrett in Saskatchewan doesn’t count, or maybe one of them isn’t African American? Write whatever you want, the truth is no longer important.
Note: It’s the title that is in error, stating they are the CFL’s first. The article is just pointless stating that it is a first for Edmonton.

Finding off-season employment isn’t shameful, it is the right thing to do whether you make the minimum or $10 million a year. Your career will come to an end someday, and even with money in the bank, you have to do something with your time. With no experience or skills you are apt to lose that money a lot more quickly.
I’m speaking at the kids who are enthralled with celebrity and entitlement who believe doing nothing is the primary goal in life.

Interesting information that no team name achieved more than one percent support in any research. Lots of details missing there, but I wonder if that is from the public naming contest or actual focus group short lists where none of the above was an option.
Let us be clear that the Rough Riders isn’t gone over rights to the name, but due to a condition placed on Ottawa’s admittance by an existing franchise. They have won no legal right to the Rough Rider name.
I am ready to accept whatever name (and we know what it is) the team has. Those that will refuse to buy tickets because of the name love to be unhappy I guess. If only the citizens of Ottawa had thought to legally challenge Saskatchewan’s condition rather than the stadium, maybe they could have got their name.

The details:
Signing up for the CFL Field Pass to qualify for the pre-sale seems like the best bet to get your tickets for the game on Saturday, September 21 at 5:00 PM AT.
Update: The 2013 stadium seating plan for those disappointed the Touchdown Atlantic page (just a redirect to the announcement currently) doesn’t have one.

The answer to the question being asked here frequently — when will tickets for Touchdown Atlantic go on sale and how can I get some? Expect an announcement on the sale dates and how to acquire them on Thursday.
Update: Details are released.

All that’s left is to see how it feels when full and on TV. And for the team to perform on the field and break that Grey Cup drought.

Nice to see a profile in a US publication that doesn’t contain blatant factual errors about the CFL or play loose and easy with explaining the differences. Miller could have a long career in Canada, a candidate for a head coaching position with a few years of experience.

To all those calling for the CFL to increase the number of non-imports on the roster, it is a CBA issue. The league cannot arbitrarily change that without opening negotiations with the Players’ Association. Very unlikely that it would be considered for discussion with a signed agreement on the books. Something to be discussed in the next negotiations before next season, but it is a complex issue to get agreement on and not the no brainer fans believe.
