Delays, Controversy and a Winner

Courtesy of Sportsology.com and The 20-Yard End Zone By Footloose It was an interesting week in the CFL. Things started Thursday night in Winnipeg on Milt Stegall Night.  After a lightning delay of more than two hours, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers stormed out of the gate and took a 34-0 halftime lead on the Hamilton … Continue reading Delays, Controversy and a Winner

Redblacks at the 6-game mark

by Cranky Frank Clair The CFL's East division race has become a tight one following a 4-game stretch that has seen the Redblacks pick up just one win, and now sit with a record of 3-2-1.

Putting the Carter incident to bed (hopefully)

But I still have a view of the RedBlacks heading into camp. The Redblacks 2016 training camp storylines don't begin with the opening of camp. They begin with … Continue reading Redblacks 2016 training camp battles

In Ottawa, we heard tidbits of information over the last month about some of the new features, but today was the day for fans to finally see what their team will be wearing … Continue reading A couple opinions on the Redblacks new jerseys

Ottawa Redblacks 2016 Draft recap

The Ottawa Redblacks took part in their fourth CFL draft on Tuesday (third as an active team), adding nine talented Canadians from CIS and NCAA schools to their roster. Here's a look at each pick, and what we know/have heard about each: #7 OL Jason Lauzon-Séguin, Laval Lauzon-Séguin became the third Laval offensive lineman taken … Continue reading Ottawa Redblacks 2016 Draft recap
