It's called an owner that thinks he can run a football team better than a guy that turned the Stamps into a contender and a champion 3 times. In the end the owner proved he was wrong and wants to jump as the ship is sinking. Buono has done a great job in B.C. I remember going to football games in B.C Place when Flutie was a Lion. Calgary came to town undefeated in five games. The game went to overtime and the Stamps won with a Pee Wee Smith TD. The attendance was around 40,000 it was amazing. I also went to a game in 1999 and saw a crowd of around 17,000. Times have changed it's good to see Buono turning the view of this franchise around. I miss him in Calgary at the same time I'm happy to see him help make the CFL healthy in markets like Vancouver.
