Gibran Hamdan: Toronto Argonaut

Good for him. I still insist that backup QB in the NFL is the best job in the world, but good for him.

 

3rd string is even better because backups are one play from going in. Punter and long snapper is pretty good too. I also won't mind left hand specialist relief pitcher or swimsuit model photographer either.

 

And good for Hamden. That is probably where he belongs.

Argos are remaking their roster, so he could actually have a really good chance to start.

 

Pardon me for my ignorance, but didn't the Argos win the Grey Cup a few years ago? I guess Damon Allen's retirement was Toronto's downfall.

 

I don't watch much of the CFL but I'd say I'm a fan of the Edmonton Eskimos.

Grew up liking the Esks back when they had a guy named Moon playing QB. Now, a friend's son is one of their starting safeties, so they're still "my" team.

 

Argos are a mess. Yes, they did win a Grey Cup after David Cynamon and Howard Sokolowski rescued them from bankruptcy, but they've continued to lose a ton of money. Cynamon and Sokolowski just bailed out, selling the franchise to B.C. Lions owner David Braley last month, and the team is working on its fourth head coach since Pinball Clemons moved to the front office after the 2007 season.

How much are Argo season tickets? Their version of the Rockpile (blues) are $161 CAN for 9 games, or about $17.90 a game.

 

This is curious. It seems the Bills aren't the only team farming out regular season games. The Argos are playing one game in Moncton NB.

 

Either way I think a Chroise Caravan to an Argo's game would be in order.
