The big thing is that todays target demographic is the type that wants an experience in their entertainment. But they are harder to lock in as hard core season ticket types. The jets split that market and make it harder still to lock them in. This age range also mostly hasnt seen a grey cup. The real issue with eating at the game isnt the price, its the combination of what you pay and what you get. People would buy more and care less if the food was better. I eat before the game. Because I dont want to pay strong prices for food worse then what you can get at gas stations. The walby burger etc address this a bit, but im in the group that finds it revolting. Its a perfect storm of trouble drawing. Imo, if you want to fill the seats and try to lock in some market share in that demographic, keep the 5 dollar beer price. And win a grey cup ofc. Maybe try to get the league to push back the start of the season as early as possible. Rather then worrying about NFL TCs, avoid as much of the NHL season as possible to maximize revenue.

Except given the test results of before and after, and how little was in his system he physically couldnt be taking it and be taking a substance contaminated with it. And that its not some thing any athlete would take as a PED. 🙄 If he did want to take a PED, with the money he makes, he would have easily been on some thing that would not pop. If he did it half assed, he would have popped for a blocker not for a ped. People dont understand that. All PEDs are not the same. It doesnt take a lot of knowledge in the field to know that this is the clearest case of a contaminated substance in pro sports history. Seriously.

BC and ottawa in the battle for the basement part 2 next year.

Unless they are driving a truck for fritos... Or bagging groceries and even older.

Rose was our 2nd best defensive player this year, and didnt have the ups and downs wj did. He was the steal of free agency.

Imo it would come down to things like team control, qb, and money. If khari comes here, is he going to be able to fully hire the guys he wants to be his Asts? Will buck be forced on him, would he want buck? Will we have a qb better then vernon adams under contract? I suspect the new owners will be more then willing to let khari run the team how he wants to. He wont be looking up at walters and miller, will have more stability at qb, and im sure he will be able to get more of the coaches cap in his pocket with them.

iirc it was family stuff and he was undecided if he would arrive late or not at all. And we never heard more.

No it isnt. And especially not in our play design. The play design and positional execution under a hall D puts little emphasis on pressure actually. You hope the front 4 get there as the last solution. This year with more inclusion from mos we see more pressure packages but despite stats, its not the first goal of the defense we run. The primary goal is to prevent scores. The primary means of forcing punts is by getting incomplete passes on 2nd down. We stop the run play and take it out of the equation as much as possible, the dbs stay in their back peddle as long as possible, hense the big cushion, that way they can break on the ball and break up passes, force turn overs and make tackles with out giving up big plays. If any thing, an ideal play design in our defense ends in a pick. But play design and execution do not detail a play ending in a sack/pick. Thats not what execution is dependent on. Execution is being in the position youre supposed to be, when youre supposed to be there and making the right decision who to pick up / when to switch off in match zone, hook-curl-flat zones etc.

Normally I might think so too, but we started doing what we need to against blm in the last game eventually. Rolling coverage, showing and dropping, delay blitz, etc. And historically Hall has been good at making in game adjustments. So we have hope. And worst case scenario it costs us the game again, I think the franchise will finally be ready to make the CO moves fans have been clamoring for, for years. What we need to do defensively to beat calgary is more inline with halls MO. What we will need to do to beat ssk is more against the grain and more of a worry imo. But our personnel match up better against them as well.

Dare to dream i guess

No, but we dont employ a hard to execute game plan and have all the talent in the world on defense.

Or a grey cup. Id be very happy with either.

Or BC. is masoli the type of qb you really gotta bring in a specific OC to get? I dont think so. First team with a contract paying starting qb money and a starting job for him gets him imo. If youre bringing condell and masoli and tasker, youre basically installing that system and need to go out and get the rest of the pieces too. namely the guys to run that blocking scheme. If you have the blocking, any legit cfl starting qb is going to do as well imo. I dont see the als in the GC. I see them playing hamilton very tightly in the WF. But I dont see that team turning the corner that fast. This will be the big story of the off season for us. Id also through out that its possible (especially if we lose badly in the WSF) that miller/walters decides to take the team in a new direction. And the hot mess that is TO doesnt attract mos, and he goes to BC.

I dont think that tigernaughts team is half as good as our 01 squad was. And I think their offence can be schemed for. Really takes a disciplined D to beat their offense. More blockers means less offensive threats and we have the horses to win a battle in the trenches. I dont think hamilton will be any more over confident then they have been at any point this season, nor will they be less prepared. But I think the gap between the last team in the play offs, moes/als and the top team, cats, is very small. The gap between teams in 01 was huge.

To beat the stamps we need to beat their protection scheme. We also need to vary looks and dont let blm get comfy. I think this game is gonna rely on how good the defensive play call is.

Hes more like 6'4 and the nfl doesnt lack for big and tall qbs. His college production wasnt impressive, 18 starts over 3 years between 2 teams. Never seemed to be able to be the locked in starter for a team. His raw tools are impressive. Good accuracy and touch, he can really hit some tight windows. Good arm strength, varies his release position and length some times to get more on the deep ball or get it out quick. Release time is good. He isnt streveler, but he is a solid qb athlete. Seems too inclined to take big risks, struggles when coverage shifts hard from his pre snap read. Was working as a QC coach for central Michigan. Good bit of talk about his football IQ.

Nik lewis jr, also the slowest screen pass td ever lol.

We have 4 stringers that get hurt and we cant get an update at any point during the season, sask starting qb is hurt and every one knows it happened in practice, its his back and a pulled muscle.

Imo we should get one in each major mall in the city.

Agree, when i first listened to westwood on 1290 i was surprised how entertaining and natural he was on radio. Hes a weird dude, but all kickers are. And hes really entertaining. I loved westwood walby and edmonds.

No doubt. Walby is fantastic. I love DB with bob, but before brown walby wouldve been waaay better then the likes zalnasky.

+ a horsecollar on grant

And if it is taken into account, it has to be done evenly.

100% back in the day we used to get practice reports, and in depth TC break downs of who looked good made plays etc. What a joke. An update on gray would be big, and olivera.

Honestly, I feel like the winnipeg football media need to suffer some backlash. Theyve been allowed to slide too far for too long. The extreme laziness of reporting in TC, practice, following up on injured players, and now this. Its well past time for them to stop being lazy sock puppets.
