You've been wrong before Mr. Explosive, but hey, don't let that stop you from prognosticating.

You mean this guy???

Hey, if you want us to do the math, don't give us the answer. Jeez...

But... but... but.. the NFL does it.. the NFL!!!

You really seem to like the way the NFL does things. And this will become relevant as soon as the Bombers join the NFL, until then...

That's ok. I'm sure that explosive diarrhea doesn't understand what all the fuss is about either.

That's like asking "What's wrong with explosive diarrhea?" Once you've experienced it, you know.

Hey guys, losing Wylie sucks but keep your chin up and remember that no matter what, at least we're not Rider fans.

Ummm, draft picks might give you a clue.

For me, there is a very straightforward answer to "The NFL does it." Want to guess what it is?

Sorry but no, they didn't just trade for his rights. Officially, yes, but in reality, if you believe that the trade simply represents obtaining his rights in order to try and see if they could reach a deal on a new contract, then see my earlier post. They traded because they had a pretty darned good idea they could sign him **cough**negotiations**cough. The value represents the fact that they were prepared to throw Jones a bone and get to Durant early. Montreal could have just as easily waited a month, but then they might have had to bid a bit more in order to get him. If Jones had not made it clear that Durant was not coming back, he might have gotten something closer to what Durant's real trade worth was, but "the smartest guy in the room" messed that up.

If Nichols had been with pretty much any other CFL team (but especially a team at 1-4) come in off the bench and complied a 10-3 season, and then be a potential free agent, there would be certain people here who would be clamoring for the Bombers to go after him. But since he did it with the Bombers, it doesn't count. Some Bomber fans... they want what what they don't have, right until they get it.

If you believe that Montreal traded for Durant's "rights" without having any idea of whether they would be able to sign him, then you'll probably also believe that Chris Jones is a "part time travel agent specializing in spring tours of Regina to large groups of young American gentlemen that has absolutely nothing to do with football whatsoever".

Actually, what I would do is have all teams play against each other for a set number of games, say, oh... 18 or so. Then compare records of all the teams. Those at the bottom get eliminated, while the ones with the best records progress onto some sort of "mini-season" in order to determine the league champion. That way, you end up with the stronger teams playing the stronger teams. I could really see something like this working well.

Challenges - unlimited 1st wrong one costs a time out. 2nd and subsequent delay of game. Review official can take a maximum of 30 seconds to overturn, otherwise the call on the field stands.

With Kevin at the helm, they'll make a splash alright.

Mr. Leg, please don't let facts get in the way of a good rant. It's all some people have.

As in "Stick a spork in him..."?

I hope he ends up somewhere. That will please his biggest fan:

Actually, no. Love it when fans dip a bit too deep into the sports cliche bag...

Hopefully, receiver.

Have you ever bought insurance?

You must have a lot of free time...

Not likely going to happen because one of the goals of a writer is to be read. Go to TO and write about the Argos means that Bluto and the other guy might read your article, but that's about it. At least Friesen and Wiecek know that they're going to be read here, even if it's just so we can point out their negativity.

How many posters grab onto a bone and refuse to let it go?
