Even worse they probably had a PR guy craft it for a nominal fee that didn't count against the cap lol

I don’t think he just lost it overnight, his shoulder must be permanently damaged, or something along those lines.

I cant imagine how frustrating it would be to give it your all and have other player not buying in.

Doug was the same. Working on conditioning drills off field every day and always hitting up the gym in addition to practices.
I remember on Doug Browns radio show he used to do (was it with Steve Morley?) - it was the week of the 2011 Grey come and he was talking about being so pumped up he was going to do an additional weight training session that week, so he asked (Steve?) how many sessions he was going to do:
Steve: Uhm, maybe 2?
Doug: WHAT?!?! I normally do three. I'm going to do 4 this week. 

I would argue that in today's CFL, Milt could draw pass interference calls like crazy. Dude always got roughed up but back then it was legal

I think you are thinking of 2002:
Stegall's stats: 106 catches for 1,896 yards. 10 games of over 100 yards, 23 receiving touchdowns. He set the league record for most touchdowns in a single season,  and most receiving touchdowns in a single season.
That same year Jones threw 5,354 yards and 46 touchdown passes.
 

01 team had a better defense. 01 team had bigger stars. This team, is a winner. Easily a better unit today. The 01 team was less than the sum of its pieces. This team is more.

HH to Grant for the heads up play to just fall on the ball after that helmet doink. If the Riders recovered at that point it would've been disastrous if the no-yards call was missed...

I like how both home games the riders kneeled down to end the first half despite trailing.
They knew they were gonna lose tonight.

HH to the weather. What a gorgeous night for end of September.

Man I would love if SSK thought they were being sneaky crossing over to the East then got bounced in the Eastern Semi-Final lmao

This season is 18 games. It is an eternity. Every game isn’t going to be a breeze, last year was a  historically dominant team. 
 
We played like **** for a month in 2019 and then went on a historically dominant defensive playoff run.
Other teams may play better than us a week here or there.
People need to take a breath. 

That's what happens when a bend don't break defence has a bad day. It becomes a bend and break defence. Nothing to see here unless it happens again next game, then we'd have a problem.

Yes, let's sweep mental illness under the rug like we've been doing for centuries.  If Evans being open about his struggle prompts just one person to reach out for help, it's a good thing.

Worth adding- it was hot as f*ck for most of the game, kind of adds to the question of why some spots didn’t see more rotation. 

Bottom line though, they had a stinker out east. Coaching, players, all around. It happens. They’re still 12-2. I’m confident they’ll show up for the big games. 

Honestly you just can't start a D with that many fresh faces and expect good results.

Be honest... Do you put in a good day on the Friday before you go on vacay?

I predict this outing will generate minimal talk on this forum.
