I missed the game driving back from Seattle today. How sad was Suitor?

So, in response to you saying that my son was whining about not being able to see all CFL games in Seattle on Hulu. Not so. He has an account with CFL.ca. He tried watching the Hamilton-Edmonton game this past Saturday. He was unable to watch it as he doesn't have the CBS Sports App. The message on his television thru CFL.ca was that the game was unavailable in his area. I know as I saw it. So, whenever there is a CFL game covered by CBS Sports he can't watch it. Any other game he can watch on CFL.ca. It's his decision not to get the app. He doesn't want to. They just had a baby in May & she's a handful right now & that is his priority. You see the same thing up here with TSN 2-5. Some fans refuse to buy the extra channels.

Doman is significantly younger than Thompson. I have a friend going back to my days at Churchill High School fifty years ago who is this shy & quiet guy. That's just the way he is. Always has been. The guy owned 3 pharmacies in Southern Ontario & is now retired. I'd hardly call him low energy even though he may seem that way. He just is the kind of guy who preferss the background. His personality is just a quiet guy. very seldom have I seen him raise his voice. He's a lot like Thompson. Now they hire Chris Jones as their DC. You know he's already plotting a takeover. That is how Jones operates. He's like Covid. You just can't get rid of him.

Yeah, proud of it.

I don't understand the Tiger Cats. They have talent & can't win. I just don't get it.

Nobody in thr media does that now for fear of losing their access to the team.

Love how some of the same people who are absolutely bent with the thought that the Elks may change their name back to Eskimos are the same ones who are just as prejudiced towards older people as the ones who hate the name Eskimos. The many posters here are indeed hypocrites.

Have you forgotten that Spiegel was 15 years older than the new owner in Edmonton? So?

Doesn't give the vibe of someone with a lot of time left? Are you a some kind of a physician who can diagnose a fatal acondition watching a tv screen? ? Or just a general ageism comment?

Who actually runs the Ti Cats? Is it Steinauer? Incompetent.

He won't make the money he's making up here even with the exchange rate.

Pro sports is a business. It does suck sometimes. Cryder fans being cryders. As Roy Kent would say, "*****"!!!!!!

It'll be interesting to see what the Als do this off season. Maybe Maas will stab CoFaj in the back like Campbell & Doman have done to Adams.

I can see Fajardo being a free agent this off season. The "They Suck".... sneaky vibe.

Rider psychologist...

Winning one play at a time.

To me, Wheatfall & Wilson are exciting newcomers. We can only hope they grow & develop into outstanding receivers.

Eklks officially sold to former construction magnate Larry Thompson. Would only say that the EE will be the official brand. Non committal on name change & wouldn't say how much he paid for the team. In other words, fans know nothing. Welcome to private ownership & all its secrets, Elks fans. It's not the breath of fresh air you might think it is. https://3downnation.com/2024/08/15/edmonton-elks-introduce-larry-thompson-as-new-owner/

You'll know something nefarious is up if Matthieu Betts gets cut in Detroit & the BC Lions then sign him.

Yep. Means diddly squat.

But I'm not saying anything more about the name change lest this discussion might be considered political which is a no no.

You talk to a lot of Elks fans & they hated the name change. You can argue it didn't but it clearly did. How could it have not? Most fans felt the name change was pandering to progressives especially when not all Indigenoue groups up north said the name Eskimos bothered them. What if there was a movement in Winnipeg to change the name Blue Bombers because some progressives found it offensive & glorified war as it honours a WW2 American bomber? So, then the team changes our name to the Aeroplanes? There'd be a lot of pissed off fans who'd stop buying tickets. If you have 30,000 season tickets & you lose half that number to fans refusing to buy tickets to home games anymore then it becomes a bad situation. Then also throw in bad management on a bad team which is what happened in Edmonton. Go woke. Go broke. It is what it is. And it's very accurate. You mess with a beloved iconic sports name & this is what happens. The team forgot about the fans trying to please the others who didn't give a ****.

There's Noeller again. Claiming he blocks my posts but goes out of his way to laugh when ever I say something he disagrees with. I'm in your head, Noeller. always have been, Always will be. You have to read everything I say, Lol.

Oh, like the first rebrand to Elks went so well. The team is so broke that after 75 years they have to sell to a private owner. Get woke. Go broke.
