Premier Talks Stadium

I would have thought my former employer would have this front and center on their website saying the Premier said it on Newstalk this morning but I guess not thus I won't provide a link and just tell you what he said. Brad Wall says they are looking at the University of Phoenix stadium in Glendale, Arizona and thinking a mini-version of that facility could be built in Regina. If this happens it is great news. The Glendale stadium has hosted many major events including the New York Giants win over New England in the Super Bowl, the BCS championship game and will next year be the home of Wrestlemania (had to get that in. This is great news if it can come to fruition. What's the pricetag though???

No way is this happening. No way whatsoever.

To Brad:

The website isn't the only thing bad about that place. After Gormley, there is nothing and I mean nothing. Mitch you made the sports show and its just plain boring now.

Guys you can take runs at my former employer all you want and MT I thank you for the kind words but I do hafta say this. People like Sarah Mills (my all time favourite redhead), Patrick Book and Alec Docking are people that I have a great deal of respect for and vice/versa. When that newsroom wants to hop, they want to do so. There are other people there (and they know they are) who simply are irrevelant as far as I'm concerned and are just a you know what. I would not classify anyone in that newsroom in that way. I told them what to do to improve the website and like everything else I was basically ignored by those in charge of that area. What I'm saying is if you are going to slam my previous employer, just watch who you are going after or I'll have to bite back. I do defend my friends.

I've always wondered Mitch, how bad did John Himpe piss you off when he said the Riders weren't a good team after they started 6-0.

You're right about the website Mitch. Its a joke and the person you can blame is you know who and the other idiot thats in charge. They simply have no idea what to do and it continues to hurt the overall product. There's apparently another relaunch coming but I'm sure it will be the same old same old. They want everyone to come to the website and see that embarrassment. No clue whatsoever. Miss ya lots and keep wishing I saw you in the hallway. We'll talk soon. Gotta get to Vancouver-St. Louis now.

Does anyone expect CKOM to support anything that happens in Regina. They promote that their Saskatchewans Radio station, what a bunch of crap, if I want to get Saskatoon news thats the spot,Saskatoon news and whining about Regina. However it should be stated that Saskatoon is Saskatchewans biggest Village.
