Wally has made up his mind.
With Chapdelaine gone, Thelwell will not be signed in BC but might surface in Edmonton... most likely out East.

Kidd has been slighted and will continue to be a fan favorite in Toronto.

Clermont has asked for an extension only to watch every other Lion sign. He'll be in Sask where his family is and he is working on his degree.

I'm glad they are all on the Cup as Lions.

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

Well don't feel too bad Lions fans. Aikmanr has reported on CFL Zone that KK, Matt Dominguez, and Reggie Hunt will no longer be with the Riders AFTER next year. The source wasn't mentioned, but my guess is the Riderville.com forums.

What in the world is going on these days!!?

Rumour-mongering.

The odds of Thelwell being back have been at best 50/50 for quite some time. He himself acknowledged that well before the Grey Cup and well before the departure of Chapdelaine. Look for him to take Hwy 1 all the way to Ontario as opposed to Hwy 5 towards Edmonton.

As for Clermont that he doesn't have an extension yet should be of little concern. Buono takes care of things in his own time. JC signed an extension prior to the 2005 season. Whether that was a 2 + 1 or 3 + 1 I don't know. Either way he's at worst entering his option year and it's only December. There's still plenty of time to work out a new deal.

Kidd is in a tough spot given his age and his own expectations for both playing time and salary. If he wants to play next year it will likely be in another city. That has a lot less to do with his own ability and more to do with making room for more playing time for Jamaal Johnson who I believe has signed an extension in the past couple of weeks.

Suggesting Kidd and Thelwell will be elsewhere next year is hardly a bold statement given the amount of spectulation in the media and the Lions have younger players waiting to take their starting spots.

As far as Clermont goes.... he is under contract for ?07 so he has to wait until Feb. 2008 to become a FA if he desires. In the meantime, there are 14 months to talk about a new deal.

And what makes it even more idiotic is, it's being posted everywhere that Lionbackers says it so.....UNREAL :roll:

Brent (Blue Fan), you need to stop posting speculation on all the CFL sites from a NEW poster that says they're moving on. :roll:

Oh...BTW...Milt and DA are possibly going to the Riders....some new guy on stjamesrods.com just posted it..... :hypno: :hypno: :roll:

Check your source Marty York :thdn:

In other 'news'... Bob Ackles is leaving the team to join the circus, Merv Fernandez is on the verge of signing a new deal to be the place kicker and Wally has a really bad case of the clap.

I heard that Casey Printers is giving up on his dream of becoming a NFL quarterback to sign a contract to play for the Canucks.
