If that’s their big plan to save the team then they are in trouble

In listening to new owner after today's press conference he said they will be putting gas to the pedal, particularly after this season, to turn things around working on a number of things. So in short, no - I don't think he at all thinks a name change - even if that is done - will be the 'big' plan to save the team.

A man of few words but it will be the actions in who he puts around him and what they do moving forward that speak for him for sure.

I like the cut of his jib.

'revamped or new facility'

Hmmmmm

What an incredible first half!

Here's hoping the Hamilton player is ok; it looked bad.

Agreed. Luther is an Edmontonian, I really didn't like seeing that.

Three in a row baby and in convincing style.

Rankin is a machine.

Probably saves Edmonton some money!

Sounds like Luther (HAM) is generally ok and very thankful about that; as are we.

God football can be scary like that. Tackle didn't even look all that bad just a bit awkward from what I saw. Luther is and has always been a wicked great dude, thankful he's OK.

Yup, we are only paying 31% of a football ops cap hit for next season instead of the whole thing.
