The Pick Has Been Made





The Riders have made Shomari Williams the number one pick in today's CFL draft. He is in Regina and will be speaking to Regina media later today.
PS: Rider great George Reed presented Williams with his jersey today. He will wear #99. Are Canadian athletes allowed to wear that number anymore?! ITS A JOKE!!!

A great pick! I think this guy can start this year and be a dominant force on our D.

Everything I have read and seen about this guy are positive. He looks happy to be here. I'm now interested to see what happens at 8. I think they trade down and get Steele or Bulcke since neither has been taken.

Surprized, but not surprized by Sisco and Neufeld picks. Good that the other two players are D linemen. Interesting that LaPointe played for Barrett at Buffalo

Good but not great draft by the Riders.

"It's a joke" can be taken in more than one way, so before you criticize the response, think about the ironic tone of your comment.

Anyone who has ever heard Mitch on the air knows he will yell "ITS A JOKE" when he makes a sarcastic comment like that. I understood the phrase completely. I guess others who maybe have forgotten his on-air persona can take it the wrong way, but those that know him know what he meant.

Thanks for the clarification since I am not from Regina and have not heard Mr. Blair and his on-air persona. My apologies!

Don't worry about it! If you are from out of the province, thanks for reading. If you are from the province, have you forgotten that easily? SNIFF SNIFF!
Just to clarify, the sarcasm button was on!
