  1. With all this talk of Harris possibly leaving and Brady Oliviera negotiations, I wonder if it is the same team courting both. AH as starter, BO as their backup... Tbh I was glad we re-signed Augustine, but now wondering if he ends up being the only one we retain...
  2. Truly a case of the blind leading the blind lol
  3. No way. That dude has an ego the size of the moon and never seems to get it done when the chips are down.
  4. Ricky Collins is a choke artist. I recall Huff being in the anti vax crowd. Hard pass on both.
  5. Why is everyone talking about the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method of inventory valuation?
  6. It's all part of his ploy to cheat the 'Riders out of a $600,000 up front signing bonus.
  7. Regardless what Harris does, he'll end up retiring a Bomber. His best years were here. If he does play out his last few years somewhere else, I dont blame him for a second. Dude has bills to pay and a family to feed. Hope they can find a way to retain him without breaking the bank, but even last year he was absent for alot of games.
  8. If that was the case I'd be questioning the coaching staff even more... in that situation, is a receiver with a busted up hand really your best chance to win the game? I get Whitehead wanting to go in - but unless they understated his injury or something - I'd be putting someone else in there. The guy has heart, no doubt - but sometimes you just have to go with the backup in my opinion. All that said though - I stand corrected, and thanks for the info.
  9. I get that BC is gonna load up the $$$ cannon for Lawler, but I think nothing shows better how BC treats their receivers like throwing Whitehead to the wolves and having him play against us with a busted up arm/hand when we played them in BC. Sometimes actions speak louder than words (or money).
  10. You know they're bad signings when those could easily have been announced as new coach hirings and have also been feasible given their age.
  11. Personally in any industry where you deal with the public, I think they should just have the unvaccinated deal with the unvaccinated. You're an unvaccinated nurse? Okay, you get to deal with unvaccinated hospital patients. Unvaccinated teacher? Into the cohort of unvaccinated students etc. etc.
  12. Got my booster yesterday (was first eligible Jan 04 2022, but just started at a new firm so I wanted the shot to be on a Saturday.) While I realize it does not make me invincible, it is a step in the right direction regarding protecting my family and myself. I will feel much better once (a) my daughter turns 5, and becomes fully vaccinated (b) they approve a vaccine for under 5, allowing her to be vaccinated or (c) people stop being idiots about this thing and we finally get it under control.
  13. Bryant's worth on this team is immeasurable. That is all. Actually, the collective noun to describe a group of goats is a trip. As in "the trip of goats are poised for another Grey Cup trip."
  14. -30C out -@$!#ing trash weather -Had to get up early and work late - Collaros re-signed Overall, pretty good day
  15. No way would I want Trevor Harris here. Dude crumbles under pressure and is over the hill, not to mention there are rumors he is locker room cancer. Give me a diamond in the rough young QB with upside and lower salary any day.
  16. Give Collaros a contract and work in a heavy-incentive for a three-peat lol.
  17. Or how a pass is considered a dead ball once it hits an upright. Okay the situation isnt like that at all but still CoFaj sucks lol
  18. I mean, in fairness, if I was living in Regina I'd be feigning injury constantly too.
  19. Good, I hope they give him a swift kick in the balls on the way out. While practicing social distancing, of course. How in the f are there that many people with children in the 5 - 11 age group that haven't got their first shot? My daughter is currently 3 and I plan on booking her first shot on her 5th birthday. I wish we had a better option than just "welp hope our 3 year old doesn't catch this life altering virus".
  20. Pfft. Rider Nation wishes they were the auto equivalent of the Ford Edsel. They are actually more akin to the Dale which was a car invented by a fraudster that was good at his hype game.
  21. Honestly I'm fine with the current OT format... if anything was to be changed, I'd say just don't allow field goals... but honestly I think the current format is a good balance between making sure you end up with a victor, and not just having the winner be the team that won the toss.
  22. Hey guys remember that time the Detroit Lions won the toss in OT and 'took the wind' 😂😂😂
  23. I mean really, if we're going to field a horrible kicker, can he at least be Canadian or a global player so we can start an American elsewhere. Also, dude is 31 (so is Castillo - but he's good) .. I know kickers are sometimes ageless but dude has very little upside imo.
  24. Or if your RB also had to play QB like CoFaj or Isaac Harker.
  25. Does this fall into the category of 'failing upwards'?
