    Had a feeling that Orridge wouldn't be around for the full term of his deal. As Dave Naylor mentions: it was never a good fit.

    I hope Tom Wright is at least spoken to, and I wouldn't mind seeing Pelley back on the CFL's side. While not a CFL guy, I'd still like for the league to speak with Jim Little (even though the League probably couldn't afford him. I really loathe the idea of Glen Johnson's name being brought up in the 3downnnation piece, and I hope that whomever the next Commish is, they are smart enough to give Johnson the boot.

    Even though he was likeable, Wright was responsible for the poor TV contract signed during one of the renewals.
    It came out how he did not even speak to CBC or any other possible suitors who after the fact made it known of having interest.
    For me that's a poor negotiator.

    You can't blame Wright for that without also blaming Pelley who took the lead in those negotiations. I have no interest in seeing either of those gentlemen return to the league as Wright fiddled while Ottawa burned and I don't see Pelley as being overly committed to the CFL.
