Episode 56 - CFL Labour Day Weekend 2021 Preview
*This episode was recorded before the CFL’s announcement Thursday of the successful rescheduling of the Edmonton Elks and Toronto Argonauts game which was postponed during week 4. The game is now scheduled to be played Tuesday, November 16 at 7:30 pm EST in Toronto.
It’s a Mark’s (cast) CFL Labour Day Weekend preview on this episode with BOTH Jason Gregor and Gord Randall. We run down the weekend’s matchups including the Montreal Alouettes at the Ottawa REDBLACKS, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers facing the undefeated Saskatchewan Roughriders, the Toronto Argonauts taking on the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and the Edmonton Elks coming on an official “bye” week traveling to Calgary to do battle against the Stampeders. Gord also breaks down the BC Lions season thus far, talks new owner Amar Doman and what America’s CFL team needs to do to be successful in the CFL West.
We chat the latest news coming out of Edmonton including the release of Jacob Ruby and statements from their president Chris Presson, and we cover news and notes from the rest of the CFL teams. Could the Ottawa REDBLACKS make a change at quarterback? Sounds like that was a possibility after losing to America’s CFL team the BC Lions last week.
The NFL cut down their rosters this week, and we keep track of all the latest movements from some of your favorites from the XFL and The Spring League including PJ Walker, Michael Dunn and former AAF MVP Garret Gilbert.
FINALLY, there’s some honest to goodness XFL news to chat about this week as Redbird Capital’s Rob Klein talks potential team owners, where they are at with hiring a commissioner and more.
