    Great games this weekend!

    That was until the Eskimos and Roughriders engaged in this bloody affair. Its 7-1 Saskatchewan in the 4th! Unfortunately, Saskatchewan doesn't have an NHL team to make a joke out of it. Well the Blues almost moved there so I'll say Blues 7 Oilers 1.

    We beat ourselves, plain and simple. Watching Jyles and Joseph at work certainly brought back some bad memories but I am so, so thankful that Ricky Ray is now an Argo.

    The Eskie fans will be even happier with Tillman. WOW I watched paint dry no wait grass grow, no it was the Riders and Eskishmoes. Fill those fans up on piss Pil beer and a 1-0 game is exciting for them.

    They are calling for Tillman's head already.

    There are elite QBs and then there are merely serviceable ones. You can win a Grey Cup with a serviceable QB but you have to have a strong team around that person (e.g., Tom Burgess in Winnipeg in '90) and perhaps a little luck (e.g., Kerry Joseph in Saskatchewan in '07). Watching the game tonight made me thankful that we have an elite QB versus having serviceable ones. Here is the list of elite and serviceable starting QBs in this league currently:

    Anthony Calvillo = elite
    Ricky Ray = elite
    Henry Burris = elite
    Buck Pierce = serviceable
    Travis Lulay = elite
    Drew Tate = potential to be elite
    Kevin Glenn = high-end serviceable
    Darian Durant = elite
    Steven Jyles = serviceable
    Kerry Joseph = serviceable

    For the record, I would consider Cleo Lemon and Michael Bishop to be serviceable but Dalton Bell to not even be at that level. What do you all think?

    I think #3 QB Matt Nichols just took one step closer to seeing some playing time.

    Edmonton's defense can't be too happy to see no reward for their performance today.

    I wouldn't call Durant elite. He falls in the same catagory as Glenn to me.

    Durant needs to cut down on his interceptions.
