Alberta-style football, over the past 16 years, has featured such terrifying events such as many home playoff games and 6 Grey Cup championships; 3 each from division rivals Edmonton and Calgary. In addition to playoff success, Alberta-style football also features a two-tier ownership as Edmonton is a publicly owned team while Calgary is privately owned.
“As you can see, the management of the Roughriders has risked change to follow Alberta and, now look at what’s happened,” continued Calbert, “Not everyone has access to a ticket to a game anymore, the wait times at the concession stands have increased dramatically, and, with the team now offering Rider shares, they are well on their way to being privatized.
“I miss the days when our team was a bunch of meek and mild lovable losers that played in front of a half empty stadium and had to beg for money every year just to stay in operation. That was the kind of team the entire country embraced. Now look at the dark path they are travelling!”
Heh. Saskabush is back.
I see we are finding new and wonderful uses for “Lambchop”. The NDP does have its uses, despite all those rumours to the contrary.
Could we be seeing the new design of the Roughriders helmet here? I’d want to know where to buy it.
Man oh man do I wish Saskabush would replace the Star Phoenix on a daily basis.
The way I see it, if yer gonna read fiction it might as well be something funny.

The “wolf” rules. I’ll bet Calvert wishes he’d have chosen “the soft sell” instead of an ad that theoretically did him in. Tomorrow, the score will be settled.
So forLorne thinks it is better to have a losing team that no one wants to pay money to watch than a winning team that everyone wants to watch. Yup sounds like a socialist.
“dat is not fair, Halberta hass due ‘ockey teams and due fudball teams an saskgagjewan honley has one if we haf equal hi zation dey wood give one hup.” Borat Dion promising to ForLorne Calvert.
Heh , just so long as they don’t dress up as tigers ( Tamil Tigers ) .
speaking of tamil tigers has CBCpravda reported the 6 liberals attending that funeral yet?
ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?
To cal2:
Speaking of CBC Vs Pravda. I agree. Only in Canada can a network milk the Feds for 1.9 billion a year, then turn around and bash the hand that feeds them at every corner.
The mandate of the CBC and Radio Canada was, and should continue to provide high quality programing to all Canadians. We don’t need an ongoing political column that bashes the feds 365 days a year.
I also dispute the fact that Radio-Canada (French CBC) concentrates on Quebec themes when the whole of Canada pays the bill.
I’d ask that all the “Friends of SDA” open this topic for discussion at the earliest opportunity.
Sorry! kremlin is spelled with a caplital “K”, as in “KGB.”
