Although it's early in the CFL season, Slap Maxwell, who has fallen out of more press boxes than any other sports reporter in history, has come up with some conclusions. Here are Slap's questions, which he would call rhetorical if he knew what that meant:
Is Mike Reilly the best quarterback currently playing in the CFL?
Are the Edmonton Eskimos the comeback team of the year?
Is Chris Jones the early first choice for Coach of the Year?
Is Jon Cornish the best non-running running back in the country?
Now that Shea Emry has gone to the Argos, is Chip Cox the entire Montreal Alouettes defence?
Has Mike Benevides stopped changing his socks? (A few seasons ago, Benevides, then the Lions defensive coordinator, credited the team's winning streak to his continuing to wear the same socks, game after game. Asked by a sports reporter if he washed the socks between games, Benevides said, "Next question." Now that the Lions are winning again, Mike may have brought the sock strategy back into play.)
Slap says the answer to the first five questions is yes. He doesn't know about Mike Benevides's socks.
