Fantuz is a good receiver but I'd rank him behind Richardson, Simon, Bruce, Lewis and Stamps.

It's not so much that I was laughing at the suggestion that Lewis is better than Fantuz. But Lewis as the best receiver in the CFL is laughable to me though. The haha is from the fact hat I just knew pete was going to for sure pick a Stamps player. I shouldn't be shocked though. Its one of those things like The sun rising or moon having hilarious rider conspiracies.
I'd say the top 5 in no order are Richardson, Stamps, Fantuz, Simon and Lewis. But no way do I ever place Lewis at no 1. That's probably Simon or Richardson. Until Fantuz leads the league more than once it's just not a big enough body of evidence. I'd rate Fantuz number 3 but like I said earlier simon's in the twilight of his career and Richardson has Calvillo so it's hard to say who's best.
Btw Lewis has also played way more than Fantuz. He's only entering his fifth season as a starter? Not counting last year b/c he was in the nfl and then hurt.
That and Lewis is all about Lewis. I think he's proven that much over the years.
