Yeah everything else he posted was useful. Ken-yon is a game changer. Plus he's a real humble dude. I can't believe there wasn't even a penalty on the horse-collar tackle such grounding his last season and our offense. Hopefully he comes back hungry and able to do what he used to do. He's a double to triple move magician out there with good down field abilities as well.

RE:jiri's comments about sandro, I wouldn't know about what you're seeing but I wouldn't be averse to him leaving. He had good years yes but his comments post game 08 grey cup, kinda showed me something I didn't like and would be interested in finding a replacement. His leg is marginally strong and I think there could be replacements found.

And some wpg fans are lamenting the loss of Arjei Franklin, so hopefully that works out better this season as Hank will get to prepare with him preseason. I wonder if Thelwell* is done?

The Herald is saying that Cortez is on his way to the Buffalo Bills. I know several Stamps' fans that will be happy about Cortez's departure.

Don't mind the Cortez move provided they find a decent replacement, but I'm not so happy about Barker leaving. He was second to none in terms of scouting and finding talent from NFL camps and otherwise, other than at the QB situation (Akili Smith was a disaster).

You don't just replace a guy like that, ego or not.

Happy that he is going the NFL if its true. i just don't want him to go to another CFL team and burning the Stamps on the scoreboard.

Milanovic turns Argos down.

It has been speculated that the 37-year-old's issue with the offer had more to do with the actual salary amount rather than the proposed two-year term of the contract.

Poor Arrrrgos. Please take Barker now and the complete destruction of your franchise will become reality.

I heard Dave Dickerson is replacing George Cortez as an offensive coordinator. I think it is a good move for the Stamps because Dave is a very smart guy and knows CFL really well. I am sure John Hufnagel will give him all the advice he can give.

Argonauts is the Edmonton Oilers of CFL. Nobody wants to go there. Milanovic woll stay in Montreal instead of signing as a head coach for the Argonauts.

Good on George Cortez. I always like the guy and he might help Buffalo Bills QBs a lot.

Dickenson as the O Coordinator is intriguing.

Maybe with Dickenson as OC we will see a short passing game as opposed to going for the bomb every pass.

There is a dude with a big ego. Taking his helmet off and looking for the camera after every play.

Didn't he get massively destroyed in the playoffs and break a collar bone or something? Or am I thinking of someone else?

And a Huff/DD combo for the offense is me dream combo. That could very well be a step up from Cortez.

Paul LaPolice - Saskatchewan offensive coordinator last season signed on as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers head coach. I hope his ego is not as bad as Mike Kelly.

Who is going to sign somewhere next?
