All I'm saying is the CFL is dying a slow death. It all starts with minor football leagues and they are drying up.

I do not live in the Thom community (closest HS to me is Balfour/Miller) so I may be off base with this. <br /><br />It would seem to me as if being white now makes me a minority at my child's elementary school. The kids coming into our country do not know football from a hole in the ground. They would rather play soccer, cricket etc. etc. Can they be blamed? <br /><br />With kids staring into their phone, playing Madden and not learning a game we grew up loving, it hurts the sport. While it is Thom today, one has to wonder if this will spill down to other smaller schools like O'Neill, Johnson, Sheldon etc etc leaving the bigger schools to compete. <br /><br />Just my two cents <br /><br />Dwight Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691831480757500675.post-69219555608724570122019-08-30T12:09:18.034-06:002019-08-30T12:09:18.034-06:00With Jefferson and Big Hill the Rider offence will...With Jefferson and Big Hill the Rider offence will have to play a solid game.
