Oh wow, it goes deeper than I realized.

Regardless of which name Edmonton fans prefer, former players Chris Morris, now the team’s president and CEO, and Ed Hervey, now general manager, have brought back the franchise motto: “Once an Esk-mo, Always an Esk-mo.”

A sign bearing the slogan has been restored above the entrance to the Elks’ locker room.

What an embarrassment to the CFL and Canada. I like sports as a break from the depressing signs of how fast society has started going backwards in terms of progress. I liked Tre Ford. Now, I guess I have a team to root against. Edmonton 0-22 this season, let's go!!!
