Let's remember... this time last year WR RJ Harris was making a big impression. He didn't even make the practice squad and now plays for the Toronto Argonauts.

Getting excited over OTA hype = "Chumpionship"

A Greek hero. Remember Jason and the Argonauts? Jason of the Golden Fleese?

Yeah I remember that but I just never knew what it was. Lol. I googled it and found out it's actually a really small octopus with a shell. Lol.

Well, they didn't name their franchise after the tiny octopus. LOL. I was president of the Armada, the fan club of the Shreveport CFL franchise, the Pirates, way back in the mid '90's. The Argonauts was what the crew of Jason's ship, the Argo, were known as. That's a tougher connotation than the little octopus.

I watched America's Game this past weekend and Doug Flutie was featured. He played for a number of NFL/CFL teams and The Toronto Argonauts (Grey Cup champs in 97) were one of them.

Anyway ...

If he isn't passing for as many yards hopefully that means we are pounding the rock with the lead and giving our defense a rest.
