Default new Edmonton Elks President

Wow, quite a solid resume. It certainly looks like the organization may have found a qualified candidate for president. Edmonton needs to get back to winning football games.

Watching him right now being interviewed by Mike Sobel on Global.
Will be interesting to see how this transpires. He’s very enthusiastic and excited to say the least…

I know, right?

I don't know him, but he seems like a person who has a fair amount of "giterdun". Good for him!

The interview this morning on 1260 was impressive. Talk is cheap but sounds like we got the right guy.

Once they change the name back to the Edmonton Eskimos there is a chance I will care again.

Listened to the radio interview on team 1260 yesterday. I'm in! This is a guy who's got his chit together. This is going to be a bounce back year for the Elks!
