Nice work by Marshall Ferguson here:

Not one that I would take personally and not one that I wouldn't consider anything more than a good-natured jab from a fan of a different team.

I like Sheed a lot, but at this point I'd rather we spend that money on the interior DL.

Narrator: This did not happen

Bailey is severely underappreciated around the league and that hurts his bargaining power. For example, he's not even mentioned in this morning's article on cfl.ca https://www.cfl.ca/2023/02/15/still-out-there-top-free-agents-still-available/

Ja'Gared Davis back in Hamilton. Can he keep his Grey Cup game streak alive?

His team won. I don't understand how we're supposed to increase membership here if we can't collectively take a little bit of rivalry building - especially in the non-Bombers thread.

Definitely get "No Gurls Allowed" vibes from this board sometimes.

Are there any big, strong Canadian QB's that would fit the bill?

Santos-Knox to Ottawa The Argos still haven't signed their starting quarterback, so there's that too.

I remember how much I hated it when Montreal had S.J. Green, Ben Cahoon and Jamel Richardson. Pretty safe to say we have that and more now.

I was wondering about whether it would be him or Schoen. I'm more willing to bet we have three 1000+ yard receivers this year.

You might see a few updated versions of this today - so excited!

But Calgary did sign Howsare out of Hamilton.

Rider sign 2 O-Lineman - Peter Godber and Philip Blake Argos sign Orimolade from Calgary. The West is getting weaker west of the Perimeter.

With Burnham retired in B.C., it's not even close anymore.

Leave it to the CFL to take one of the most exciting off-season days to announce they're taking over a franchise.

The Bombers were 15-3 and lost by one point on "Any Given Sunday". The Bombers were the better team and lost one important game. That does not make the Argos their equal or superior as a team or organization. The Argos need to improve if they want to do it again.

Derek Taylor is live and talking free agency:
