Whatever roadblocks have prevented part of camp from being in Saskatoon in the past should be dealt with. I feel that part of every camp should be in Saskatoon and I'm from three hours southwest of Regina.
Why the U of R? Is it because of the renos going on at Mosaic? That's my only guess.
Anon 1. Are you serious? Teams just can't pack up here and pack up there and criss-cross the province. The team will have its one day in Saskatoon as per usual. Quit bitchin'
Anon 1 to Anon 3;
What are you talking about? The B.C. Lions hold their camp in Kelowna. But then I guess Wally Buono wouldn't know as much about football as you do. Bitcher!
Won't Saksatoon have their own team by 2013? Oh wait, thats the pipedream they won't let go of. My mistake.
To anon 4. Does the term BITE ME mean anything to you? A-hole!
