The New York Giants released Nathan Rourke this morning. I'm assuming he will hope to stay down south but Dickenson better be making a phone call.

Cap, schmap, bring Rourke to the Stamps. Whatever it takes.

Do the Lions have his CFL rights?

The Stamps really need some star power to bring back fans. The team right now is so middling with nobody on the roster that inspires hope that better days are ahead. The team is treading water and upgrading to an elite QB would be a game changer for the organization as a top QB elevates the entire roster. Sadly Dave seems too conservative and seems like the kind of guy that would rather develop his own QB than sign a top free agent. Rourke is also maybe too much of a gun slinger for the conservative short passing game that's so dear to Dave's heart.

Looks like the Lions would be his first choice.

Quote:
CFL fans from coast to coast are keeping an eye on Rourke as closely as he’s following the three-down league. Many are wondering what would happen if he ever comes back to play professionally in Canada.
Quote:
“I would love to come back and play in this league that I love so much,” Rourke said. “I love playing in front of these fans, I love playing in front of family and I’d love to return to an organization that I love — that feels like family to me — in B.C. with the Lions.”

MOS and Walters need to make up for their Zach/Dru blunder and make a serious play for Rourke or VA

When is TSN going to quit using Edmonton fanboy Dustin Nielson for Elks games? His cheerleading for his hometown team is embarrassing.

He's firmly entrenched in that position and in my opinion, he's definitely better now then when he first arrived on the scene.

It's hard to gauge how good a performance this is from Bo because the Elks are terrible, but he's turning back the clock today.

Not many fans there. This is seriously bad for the league.

Yeah, the Stamps stunk out the joint, but at least they did it in Ottawa. This performance by the Elks at home today is getting tough to watch.

Very. The new owner is reportedly being required to put up a $20 million guarantee as that’s what it is assumed they will lose before this even returns around. So basically they are buying the team for nothing and guaranteed to loses tens of millions.

It is to each one's preference but I like him. I'd much rather listen to him than Rod Smith.

It's getting hard to hate the Elks with how poor they've been the past several years. All I hope is that they have a win before labour day.
