  1. We have a football game now.
  2. sweet christmas.
  3. 20+ years, hasnt aged, and still cant leave her un muted. If jeff reinbold rides into town on his bike i might lose my mind.
  4. How old is she now? I mean for real age, not age change stuff. Idk if she found the fountain of youth or if she was turned into a vampire by nicholas cage....
  5. I almost feel bad for the guy. As soon as the argos snap the ball the stamps are mashing the argos OL. No holes and guys in his face as soon as the ball touches his gut. BUT he isnt driving his legs at all. Hes been caught standing still almost every time. Needs to change his shoes find some traction and drive through tackles. The guy is a monster but is allowing him self to be made irrelevant. He is the prototype of the back I would look for in the cfl. He can really punish ends n lbers.
  6. Man charleston hughes attacking the passing lane when he wasnt gonna get the sack was a thing of beauty. For some reason i like seeing the soccer kick on muffed snaps to the punter xD
  7. weather like this, messam has traction, look out.
  8. reminds me of the "down town" eddy brown play.
  9. what a beaut of a pass from ray.
  10. Im happy for his success. As I am for sergio. Kickers are a strange breed though. You never know if they would have worked out if they stayed, or if they would work out if they came back. I half expect medlock not to be back. He came out with the exact wrong attitude for a guy coming off the worst year in his career up here. Especially for a guy whose paid like a star skill position player. 3 teams in 7 years to boot. Its allways a good sign to see ex players saying good things about the franchise though. Personally not the guy Id want. Also dont think hed take the kind of money we will have to offer. I wonder what the challenge is going to be. beer pong?
  11. And if we dont should we consider to pull a billy pavlopalus (pavlop..pavalop...pavlopanomamus?) on it?
  12. The bomber GCs of my life time have been brought up. But ill throw this one in. 1994 grey cup. The BC lions were canadas team taking on Baltimore. Lou passaglia kicks a last second FG to keep the grey cup north of the 49th. Too many men was pretty great too. But for my money the best none blue GC was the 94.
  13. Iirc it was floated back when he left oregon state. If he wanted to be up here, He would be imo. Idk how i feel about mos vs reilly. but the rust and out dating for reilly combined with the hard loss itd be for a team of mos guys to lose mos makes it hard to imagine it being an upgrade. Plus short of some insane meltdown I cant see our management canning mos mid season next year.
  14. I swear every one league wide knows how great moe is, out side of the media that is. I know some other teams fans who love the guy. Chris randle gets a bit more love but still a fraction of what he deserves too.
  15. It often seems that after too many years of a players coach, a change to a harder coach is welcomed by players. But then its not like it used to be. When coaches chose pads vs no pad practice, and at rare times some especially tough coaches instituted 2 a days mid season. All HCs now a days seem some variant of a players coach compared to the not soo distant past. Glad for mos and the organization. Been a long time since our HC would be considered for some thing like that.
  16. No matter what in decision is the worst decision. You can win with countless different strategies, tactics, styles and systems. Weve seen bend but dont break, cover 0, 3-4, 4-3, spread and power systems all win GCs. Its about the right pieces to manage a system, high level teaching to execute it, and preparation to keep it working. The FG kick last year, and the fake this year were calls that raised a lot of ire. But at least they werent passive.
  17. Great share. In his book "The score takes care of it self" he puts forth a great anecdote about prepping for a possible player strike by bringing in essentially a whole 2nd team of none NFLPA guys to teach the 9ers way of playing football, the playbook, etc. Preparation, for every possible out come is the difference between a team that makes the play offs, and a contender year in and year out. "Finding the winning edge" is even better. Though the stories in the score takes care of it self really punctuate the simple points extremely well. (bill walsh is to football nerds what bill james is to baseball) Great teams, and coaches dont get beaten by the breaks of the game. They take advantage of soo many previous plays that the little wax and wayne of luck doesnt hurt them. You also have to be prepared to get lucky. Atleast some what. It doesnt matter how poor a throw is or the ball is carried if you arent ready to take advantage.
  18. Thats the truth, and if you can make a go of it at a good d1 school thats about as good as a HC job gets in all of sports. College kids are easier to coach in some ways then pros, security once youve built some thing is great, huge money, and a bigger impact on the roster. He could retire, if he wanted. I dont doubt hes made more money then every HC in the cfl right now. He could possibly still get on with a big d1 school, or could go to a mid tier d1 school and have a ton more flexibility. Even after lean years, teams like Nebraska have high expectations.
  19. Huge CG to harris. Such a monster, and leader for the team. Im really happy for him. I wonder if this would have been the year for MO to win if he had stayed healthy... I feel like he would have won it (finally). I dont think that any one has been better the last 4 years then mo. Maybe as good but not better.
  20. Hes a guy that If i was a desperate team Id take a shot on. Id rather him then collaros, or durant. WIth their age Id consider him to replace ray, or glenn should they retire (they should). If i was montreal Id be willing to risk 300k on him. Any one else Id want a discount And a steep one. Not only what they have done, what they can do. I would have taken either over denny and down on the WR depth chart this year. Basically any one not named adams or dressler. That offense was hot trash.
  21. No, its an insult to people who get offended as a hobby. Thats not what a SJW is. Thats as much what a SJW is as antifa is anti facist. Cant really compare marvel tv shows to the movies. Its imo the best or tied for the best marvel tv show.
  22. Its coming up seemingly a fist full a week. I think most people have long been accepting of the exploitative nature of hollywood/entertainment. Now this outrage culture has every case, allegation and assault ever popping up as news. Even by hollywood standards its sad whats going on. Knowing the sheer amount of stuff turned up, some thing or some things are going to be un true and possibly ruin some one, and worse the thought of what greater true horrors probably remain burried. I really dont like SJW/offended culture, and idk if any of this will actually result in justice or change.
  23. I think they probably trade him for a modest return. Though its possible they could cut him if hes owed a high sum of money. Idk what his salary is, but I dont know if any one is gonna wanna give him 350k+ and give up assets to get him.
  24. not bringing in any one = not trying to improve the spot. And no JSK wasnt reported to have failed at mlb in camp. Kknox and temple were.
  25. Walters said they were able to do some deferring of money to this year due to using less of the cap space then suspected due to a lack of short injuries. That plus the heft of some of the deals that will be free agents means we wont be un able to make moves. Id say wed be in a similar position to last year, or maybe a little less cap space. Dont really want any part of collaros. Not at 100k. I imagine what fever gets will go to some one else in a similar spot. The guys id be interested in are fajardo from TO, and bridge from the riders. + a new development guy. Based on nothing but opinion, I think BC will go all in on james franklin. Buono more then any one else in the league knows how you ride or die with your starting QB. And how to spot a good one. I think jennings goes to montreal. And Durant takes a back up job like harris/ott or retires. I could see TO going hard after franklin too. Especially if he argos win the cup (retch) and ray retires. Or jumping in on jennings.
