Wed., July 29: The exhibitions are on in Saskatoon and Regina this week. Murray Wood thinks they’re fun, but they’re just not the kind of community events they used to be.

Tues., July 28: The second Gordie Howe Bridge is now open between Detroit and Windsor, but Murray Wood says it was delayed by a greedy shakedown on the American side.

Mon., July 27: Alex Hale was supposed to make us forget about Brett Lauther, but how can we? Murray Wood says Hale has struggled, while Lauther has been flawless with a new team. At this rate, Murray wonders how long until it’s “Hale” and farewell?

Fri., July 24: Every Friday, Murray Wood takes a look back at the week’s news and decides who’s hot… and who’s not. This week’s list includes weeds in Regina parks and some credit given to the Saskatchewan RCMP.

Thurs., July 23: There is extra anticipation around the Roughriders’ first-place showdown with the Elks tonight. Murray Wood says everyone is waiting to see how the team balances the difficult aspects of the weekend’s fatal crash.
