I am a YUGE critic of trump and his administration. I do have to give him credit for his part in the Criminal Justice Bill. Bravo. https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/criminal-justice-reform-1.4951888

I only went to one game this season, it was very clear that Nichols had many guys wide open and simply did not see them. He also was very hesitant on making throws and played scared IMO , reminded me a lot of Drew Willy after he was banged around and shell shocked. Streveler went in and instantly found targets not named Harris and instantly the team started to move down the field. Perhaps some folks on here with season tickets can shed more light on what they have seen? I didn't see many odds and sods this year when the offense wasn't moving and where Nichols was not pointed out for being the main reason for the issues.

I'll believe that when it's done. He's said it a few times before (first time after the Vegas mass shooting) and nothing has happened.

Honestly I have no idea if polo was ever actually played there, it was better known as the horse racing venue that preceded Assiniboia Downs and operated from 1925-1956.

Oh yeah that's a step in the right direction. Good on him. Maybe he's turning over a new leaf. Going to make a run for best pres ever these next two years?

IIRC the previous "franchise" player situation was called the "Marquee" player. It was a bust that drove up costs for clubs without any real overall benefit. The difficulty was that every team felt that they needed to designate one guy as their marquee player, otherwise their fan base would assume that their club wasn't competing. I'd rather see them bump up the minimum so that the journeymen players get better rewards for their pain and efforts. Personally, I'm not overly worried about the XFL and the AAFL. I've seen too many various attempts south of the border, and they've all gone bust. I just don't see them attracting crowds at the gate nor significant TV following.

that was one play on a lighter note: @ 4:10 in

There'd be a lot of wealthy Bomber fans then...

Yay- good to see Canada stopping copyright trolls. https://torrentfreak.com/canada-prohibits-piracy-settlement-demands-in-isp-copyright-notices-181218/

Fixed it for you. Course if Melnyk did that it would be to piss everyone off. Totally in favor.

There might be language in TSN deal that gives a bump in the fees if a new team comes in. They will have a extra games to broadcast and will get more revenue.

Plus a premium for every decade a fan goes without a cup win.

That's over the course of 3 years. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/24076702/alliance-american-football-players-get-3-year-250k-contracts

I don't care about draft picks... I just still hate the Oilers because we're Jets fans and that's what we're supposed to do.

Some hard hitters there. Specially Benny.

Congrats Brodie and KBF! You're looking fresh faced buddy!

I'm curious if you posting this in italics makes it more or less important....

Also in completely unrelated news, the Riders have announced they have hired 37 new "Doctors" & "Athletic Therapists" for the upcoming season.

Considering the circumstances under which Chamblin left the Riders, I cannot see him as a credible candidate for Argo head coach. I suspect they were just filling out their dance card.

Yeah, a Twitter timeline is a clear indication of what happens behind closed doors. - Nobody Ever

...and in the distance the original Polo Park which was replaced by the mall in 1959.

They canned him after he "Lucy-ed" our kicker
