I don't understand this one. Is it a salary thing?

He is Edmonton's problem now. Hated the move when we made it and while we give up a 2nd too at least we get something back besides a long-snapper. YAWNNNNN

Lemar Durant's tweets the night of draft showed disrespect of the CFL and the process. Diva is an understatement. Even the Ti-Cats beat reporter tweeted just unfollowed Lemar Durant. Have fun with this guy in Calgary Stamps fans.
