    This is precisely what Kelly did last off-season: talk openly about pursuing a job other than the one he has. I didn't like it then and I don't like it now. Have all the dreams, and have your agents pound the pavement on your behalf, but don't openly disrespect the fans of your current employer by speaking openly about your desire to be elsewhere.

    Maybe CFL guys just aren't as trained and polished as those in the NHL/NFL on how to deal with the media. If RD wants an NFL job he should probably learn from the Belichick school of media press conferences and not be so open and honest.

    But does make me wonder if RD did this to let even the NCAA schools know that he's available and that they can come knocking. Almost like him saying, I'm not looking for a relationship BUT if anyone contacts me, I wouldn't rule it out.

    I'm in full agreement with Paul statement above. I also wonder if 3 Down is even a fan or likes the CFL game. You would wonder reading most of their stuff. They take a shot at the league every change they get and even belittile it at times. I recall the story about a big tennis star attending a Ticat game and 3 Downs story was WHY WOULD SHE ATTEND A CFL GAME. They later back tracked from the story after the fallout from fans stating it was just a joke but the damage was done

    Rogers is just as guilty, they never missed and opportunity to disparage the league. Yes we are a Canadian league and no we don't have US tv Money. Remember fan 590? How much damage did they do
