  1. So you're suggesting that there is a problem across the CFL with the way that the practice roster system (including the rights to players) works? You have evidence of this of course or do you believe things because some dude on the internet said so? But I too digress
  2. Too many words? OK, I'll dumb it down. The CFL doesn't seem to care, so why should we? Better?
  3. Have you heard a single word from anyone in the CFL who sounds even the slightest bit concerned about what you are going on about? No, me neither.
  4. No I'm pointing out how silly your argument is when it would appear that approximately 0% of GM's seem to be concerned about this. Like I said before, if they really are concerned about his conduct, they have ways to voice their displeasure. So I'm thinking that you can stop tilting at this windmill now Mr. Quixote.
  5. Ummmm, Apparently not.
  6. I hope you can join the eight other GM's in their march to the new Mosaic field to protest what Jones is doing. Let us know how it went.
  7. Ummm no. Actually, what you said was this: ' Vandervoort at #1 would go down as one of the worst picks of all time..." That's a far cry from "basically a bad decision". #alternativefacts
  8. Anyone else wanna step up on this one...
  9. What you have here is a solution looking for a problem. If the CFL was as concerned as you clearly are, adjustments to the rules would happen.
  10. Yes he has, but I'm thinking that the other GM's will find ways to help him understand that.
  11. Really don't see this as a huge problem. He can grab every player off of every practice roster in the league, but he can't keep them all. Well, yes, I know that he has the safe houses in Regina that he can stash people away in but eventually one or two will escape and if they have any sense of honour, they'll bring back the authorities to free the others. I'm just trying to imagine how terrifying "It rubs the lotion on its skin..." sounds like with a southern drawl.
  12. I think that your rant has been disassembled quite nicely by several posters already, but I did want to post my thoughts on this particular statement because it is total BS. His stock dropping is not a mystery at all. Every single team passed him up at least once, several passed him up twice. Each team knew exactly why they were doing it. A guy that was rated 8th overall (#1 receiver) in the last scouting bureau report was drafted 18th (4th receiver). That happened for a reason. Maybe it was possible NFL interest, maybe attitude, maybe both, but to suggest that "it's a mystery" is plain silly. Just because the GM's (or the league) won't comment on it publicly doesn't mean that there wasn't a certain level of consensus about him. Look, I don't know who you are and frankly, I don't really care, but I do know a spin job when I see one and that is exactly was your rant was. If you want to post here beyond that, please give your posts a bit more thought because, as you've noticed, if you don't, lots of us here will.
  13. I've been in the Bomber store and bumped into Miller. I was impressed that he talked with me for some time. Nice to see him take the time when he could have shaken my hand and quickly moved along. It's doing the little things right that goes a long way.
  14. He's from Saskatchewan, where numbers are hard (and sheep are nervous).
  15. You have a point. But wearing a hat would cover it.
  16. Or... try not to read things into something. That would work too.
  17. Ummm, no, not at all.
  18. Really? Missed that entirely. But then again, if O'Shea and Floyd are of differing opinions, I'm siding with Floyd every time, cause... blue dog is blue.
  19. Did I miss something? Who was suggesting that Temple would be a MLB?
  20. The final touches on the new Mosaic stadium:
  21. Meh. TCF
  22. Are you suggesting that somethings rotten in the state of Denmark?
  23. Yes, Do or Die is a class all by himself.
