  1. Picks this week need to be in by Thursday @ 8PM Standings are below:
  2. Ehlers was a top 10 draft pick. Anything is possible, but if he showed the same talent as Ehlers, size wouldn't have mattered.
  3. Personal leave. They didn’t go into details.
  4. I let people change their picks for the following reasons: I lock voting at the start of the first game of the week to make administering / tracking easier. This way I know no one made a pick after a game started. Since voting does get locked at the start of the first game, if someone is late, I don't want to penalize them for all 4 games of the week. If you miss a full week of picks, very hard to remain competitive. I'd rather more people continue to play than not. Since I let people who forgot to get their picks in still vote after voting is locked, it only makes sense to let people change a pick with the same rules. If I didn't allow this, more people may wait until later in the week to make their picks, then forget, then miss completely, this again can lead to a decrease in participation. This option is open to everybody, so I don't see how it is unfair. Unrelated stat, but I find it interesting. Most years there are a lot of people who play the first couple of weeks, then trail off. This is for any number of reasons. People forget, fall behind, get busy with summer, who knows why. This is the first year we had 41 people in week 1, and while a. few people missed a week here or there, we still have 41 people playing this week. Good to see.
  5. You already picked BC
  6. Post here or PM me before the game starts
  7. Picks this week need to be in by Thursday @ 7:30PM Standings are below:
  8. We can't pay him what he will likely get in free agency. Don't think this changes anythying.
  9. But only if one is a sneak?
  10. Picks this week need to be in by Thursday @ 8PM Current standings below:
  11. I mean there was Zach getting 0 playing time in the 2nd preseason game last year. And it showed early that the offence was not ready. Then there was this quote from O’Shea himself. https://globalnews.ca/news/10551819/winnipeg-blue-bombers-offence-stalls-in-season-opening-loss-to-alouettes/amp/
  12. Double checked. Don't see you in there. Do see your picks for this week.
  13. Picks this week need to be in by Thursday @ 7:30PM Current standings are below:
  14. Bring your team to a conference final and get fired.
  15. All preseason games will have been played by tonight (Friday). Final cutdown day is Saturday (May 31), and a whole new season kicks off on Thursday. Been a long winter and glad football is back. Lets F'n go! Pick 'Ems are back this year. How do they work? Each week you pick the winners for all CFL games (including playoffs). You get one point for every correct pick. Whoever has the most points at the end of the year wins a $50 gift certificate at the Bomber store. Picks will be done through the polling system. Polls close at game start of the first game of the week. I will accept picks for games that have not started yet through PMs if you are late getting them in. Picks this week need to be in by 8PM Thursday, June 5th If you want an idea of what it takes to win it all, and who your competition might be, here is list of the top winners over the last decade. Quite a few recurring names in there.
  16. Came across this documentary on Amazon Prime today. Interesting to watch because of the local flair. Sad story because of his downfall. There are parts where he comes across as sincere and apologetic, but not entirely sure what to make of him after watching.
  17. At the game tonight. They are handing out KFC buckets.
  18. The hate on Bettman is not unique to Winnipeg. Look how he gets boo’d when he steps up to talk at the draft every year. I like how he has embraced the role. And smiles when it happens. Kind of like a wrestling heel. Truth is he has done a lot to grow the game and revenue in his time as commish.
  19. Unfortunately NHL tends to punish retaliation more harshly. We’d probably get a suspension.
  20. At the end of the day, put yourself in his shoes. His son just got drafted into the CFL. How proud would you be? I'd dare bet most people here would even cheer for Saskatchewan if their son were drafted by the Riders.
