Riders rent reduction a 'contractual matter', no legal threat: Reynolds
8h ago
The $1.33M rent reduction comes from what the club owed during seasons impacted by the pandemic.
This is it — my last Between the Lines commentary.
I don’t know how many years I’ve been writing them. How many I’ve written. How many responses I’ve received, some agreeing with me. The hard part for a journalist isn’t the writing part, it’s the idea, thinking of something current, interesting enough to discuss and worth arguing about. Picking on the Saskatchewan Roughriders always solicited responses, but nobody can do that every day, even on our daily The Green Zone talk show.
We’re moving Between the Lines to another topic: Junior hockey. Specifically, we’ll be producing a weekly show for Rawlco Radio focusing on the five WHL teams, 12 SJHL teams plus players, coaches, scouts and managers with Saskatchewan connections.
Admittedly, most of my journalistic career has focused on football, but my family is well-rooted in hockey, plus two of the six books I’ve written are about sticks and pucks, including “Fire on Ice,” which discusses why Saskatchewan produces more NHLers per capita than any jurisdiction. So we’ll have a treasure trove of subjects to discuss when Between the Lines re-debuts next month. And my best, argumentative opinions will remain on The Green Zone.
