Coach Not Named Kiffin Starting War Of Words Up North
((HT: Regina Leader-Post/Ian Hamilton))
Before he has even coached a game in the CFL, Winnipeg Blue Bombers head coach Mike Kelly ((pictured, thanks Winnipeg Free-Press)) has started the war of words with his team’s main rival.
At the Bombers’ annual fan forum Tuesday night, Kelly took a run at Saskatchewan, the Roughriders and that team’s fans.
During the course of the evening, one of the Bombers supporters on hand referred to Regina as “the crotch of Canada.” Later on, Kelly talked about the offseason influx of players into Winnipeg from the Roughriders and Edmonton Eskimos by saying: “We kind of raided the toothless, green, watermelon-helmet-wearing people from the crotch of Canada.”
(As an aside, if Saskatchewan is the crotch, what does that make Manitoba?)
Labour Day oughta be fun.
Ed Tait from the Winnipeg Free Press has other parts of the Q and A...
