CFL Week Had Everything
When you have everything from a Darian Durant autograph signing ceremony standing in as his farewell to Saskatchewan fans, to Brad Wall getting booed and defended by Anthony Calvillo to future CFL stars showing their stuff to future employers, the inaugural CFL Week had something for everyone.

The CFL decided to address the issue of a league that seems to go into suspended animation in the offseason by having CFL stars fly in for a week of interviews, meeting fans and taking part in in a festival designed to raise CFL awareness.
It was nice of the CFL to have the first one in Regina where the Riders reign supreme and where fan interest would ensure the event would be a success. The week started on Tuesday with a CFL quarterback panel with Kevin Glenn, Matt Nichols, Mike Reilly and Bo Levi Mitchell. Despite Mitchell’s reputation as a bit of a whiny Stampeder, he impressed with his wit and his ability to play the role.
