Qft. It was one of the wildest championship runs ever. What a ride.

Hes never maintained it but he's been a really good deep threat. He's like Chris brazzell

before the injury sure. 😛 Mookie mitchell should be on the list too.

https://www.goelks.com/injury-report/ Looks like the elks will be fairly healthy, to start at least.

hope we get an injury update today.

I loved him as a player. Always wanted him in blue n gold. Friggin beast of a man. SJ green had some hands on him too.

Stegall. Jake Wieneke has the sickest grabs in the league today. But even his great leaping efforts are stuff you expected Milt to make. The end zone hit in mid air and snags the ball while falling to the ground vs the riders is in the top 2 craziest catches ive ever seen. Against toronto, he tipped a deep ball with his left hand then secured it with the same hand while extended, but maintained stride and scored a td burning 3 argos defenders. Every year for atleast 12 or 13 years you could argue milt had the best catch of the year. And half the years, you couldnt even argue against it. On top of the circus act, he had the fewest drops of any wr ive ever seen. Pass thrown well behind him? No problem he will just reach back and catch it with his off hand with out breaking stride. Shoe laces? no matter he got it. Hung out to dry way up in the air, he will get it take a hellacious hit and keep possession. The joe jurevicious tip catch and randy moss one hand stab with the raiders got nothing on milt. Also, milt played in an era when you could mug receivers. The only era harder to be a WR was before the 5 yard bump rule. He played with the weakest assortment of qbs of any hof wr in any league.

To also put this into perspective, the guy who maimed my mother for life had his drivers taken away for 1 year. Then he had to pay a very high cost to get it back, 2-3 grand. His parents paid it. He didnt miss any days of work or get fired. He wasnt arrested or charged. I lived in a small town and went to school with his younger brother, and at an earlier point he dated my sister. He bitched and moaned endlessly to all who would listen about not having his license and the cost of his insurance. My ex's dad got soo many tickets and DUI's they took his drivers permanently. (he was intoxicated and flipped his truck on a back road in the middle of summer for the "final straw") Only he drove long distances for work. And his boss hired a high end lawyer who was able to get it knocked down so he could drive for work for 3 years then got his full license back. They listed his residence as his cabin, and since he worked all over basically every car ride could be considered work. I can share too many stories like that. I take DUI very seriously, and personally. Our society does not. Drive around the south east of the province and youll see more intoxicated drivers than drivers on their phone on the weekend. Most people arent good or bad. Every one makes a bad decision every now and then. Lawlers actions past this point will forever come under a greater deal of scrutiny. If he has a minor issue, he may get passed over completely by the NFL and miss out on his window. Half way through this year he's on track to get an NFL deal. If this went worse, he couldve been out of football for good. Id say the punishment, and potential further punishment is in line with the crime. Far, far more so than it is for most civilians.

1 game is not the equivalent of 1 day though. 16 weeks including byes. 1 game cheque is 1/16th of his years pay. Thats nearly a month of work for a regular person. Leonard was suspended 2 games for failure to test and 1 game for assaulting a league official. Guess he couldve killed that official too, or who knows roid rage in a car and he couldve killed a dozen people.

Hamilton is one of my least favorite places in canada. I hate having to go there and wont stay over night unless some ones gonna die. Hamilton, regina, edmonton and toronto. No joke 100s of better small cities and towns in mb, bc, quebec and the maritimes. Even western ontario. The bottom tier for me. Winnipeg has a lot of charm and some really great areas. I can see how outsiders would miss it all together if they dont know a pegger. Their loss. The guy has a huge heart. And he loves the game. I thought he showed a good bit last year early on. Id love to see him turn the next corner. Right. Demski, Harris, and Brady on the field at once. Good luck defending that.

Im not surprised. Dude is like 5'9 tall by 5'9 wide and 5'9 thick. And he is far from sloppy. You dont see DTs built like him often. I loved in the pre game show where he talked about reviewing his own film. Thats a guy who clearly expects more of him self than any one else could possibly expect of him. Sheed is motivational, but Stove is motivated. I mean he had a couple fantastic run down from behind plays that game too. That man can RUN too. He's like a 2/3 scale version of larry allen.

he also said he doesnt expect the league to add to it. And I think you and mos are right about it. Unless it comes out he blew some crazy high blood alcohol level. I hope it all also involved some sort of counseling or substance abuse program to support him. Every one makes bad decisions. Its also easy to be penitent once youre busted. (unless youre ac leonard) I hope he can keep his nose clean. I cant imagine a guy who would chronically make bad decisions like that would survive the fifo nature of the team. So Im hope full it will work out. And yes, I bet he has a serious chip on his shoulder and plays his best football going forward. He's also 27 and on a 1 year deal. So im sure he is looking for an NFL shot with some guaranteed money after this year.

500 wouldnt even be high for him. those legs are like the torso of a good size rb each. Idk if hes a gym rat type of guy. But im sure he'd physically be capable of 650-700 lbs. Top world numbers are in the 1000s now. Wouldnt be surprised if he could squat as much as he could dead lift.

cant, you can only go back like 8 or 9 years on here.

Plus other than the game you'd be in hamilton. eww.

only lasted a few weeks, thats interesting. wonder if some one else picks him up. ott, and cal should give em a look.

Shane Ray is returning to the line up for the argos. The former first round nfl pick who was allegedly unblockable in camp but invisible in his only game played. He went right into the 6 game ir with a finger injury. Cordero law is healthy and is a 2nd stringer while Charleston Hughes is a 3rd stringer.

see above post * Back in the day, swept under the rug for sure. Today, idk. Ive heard a lot of tales of guys like oj simpson getting away with a lot back in the day.

Yeah, he's their real modp in 2019.

I confused the wheelers, I dont follow hockey. Of course if it was an NHL long time guy itd be bigger news. Its hockey in canada. If a guy like that flipped off a valet instead of tipping him it'd be bigger news than if a cfl star crashed their car while drunk. Nature of the beast.

tell that to the loss to the argos. even in the win we struggled with the run badly. 100%. The noise, full team flex seal, and we will see the poutiest wilder we've seen all year. I think sheed is gonna step up in a big way. He's really gotten it together after the first few weeks of considerable struggle. We've consistently gone from wr to wr having big games. I think Adams will soak up a lot more touches too.

I dont agree, unless wheeler has some massive following im un aware of. In no way shape or form was what he did more impressive than what lawler did. Weve seen other rookie qbs play better this year in game 1. The dui doesnt change his performance. But it doesnt really matter. The cfl weekly and monthly award choices this year have been comically bad and mostly over looked the bombers any way. You say never hear about it, but then its referenced. If any thing in this modern pro sports era of the last 20 ish years you dont do jack all with out it becoming publicly known. Its not particularly soft treatment for athletes either. DUI, and minor possession raps happen 20 times a day in manitoba. They dont face some sort of horrible consequence legally unless some one is maimed. The professional back lash for coke, and street racing to athletes is far far greater than what any civi gets. Follow the MB RCMP page for a week and youll see a half dozen plus 200+ kph speeding tickets, 2 massive drug busts and countless domestic violence cases. Follow up those cases and youll see a TON of slaps on the wrist at worst.

No kidding. Wow.

Weve only been able to do that once this year though. Teams aren't playing the run like they did in 19 and prior.

Except for us starting 2 rookie DBs, 2 rookie DTs, a rookie wlber, having started a rookie wr this year, And rookie kickers. I dont think we'd be plucking guys off PRs either. But I think we might see some early TC 2022 guys. Or perhaps if meredith gets healthy I think he'd bump a pr guy at the least.
