Who will we beat while you are at at and how many times will we punish them?

I am definitely making the Calgary trip this season, so I am very much looking forward for this to be the summer run, vs a fall one.

We will beat all of them. Repeatedly.

At least twice. Sometimes 3-4 times.

There are Board of Governors Meetings scheduled this week, so perhaps late in the week or early next week?

Can't remember the dates, but 'NW noon sports a couple weeks ago said a preliminary draft had been put together. Seems to me the Leos were starting on the road, possibly in a GC rematch in Montreal around June 30. I think indications were they'd be at home the following week versus Toronto. With no threat of a last second franchise folding they should be back to a normal schedule without bye weeks. Assuming June 30 (a Saturday) is accurate then the first exhibition games should happen around June 16 and training camps should open around June 1-4.

The article suggested this week, not in a week. I am looking forward to its release as there was talk of a bye week with all teams having a week off, thus every team playing in the other weeks.

That would add up to the rough dates I'd heard on 'NW. 18 games + 1 extra week to allow for every team getting a bye somewhere along the way = 19 weeks. Nov.25 Grey Cup would mean Nov.3/4 is the final weekend. Go back 19 weeks and Week 1 starts on the Canada Day weekend, Friday June 29.

I remember hearing last season that all teams might get one bye week all at once.
Doesn't make sense having no CFL for over a week but I do like the idea of all teams playing during the same week.
I'm hoping we get 5 out of 9 home games later in the season as opposed to earlier.
Schedule has to be better than last seasons :cr:

I'm hoping the Lions get the bye Oct. 13. Hate to miss my niece's wedding reception.
