We're talking a Commissioner in his 60's here... Like me. We don't understand all these new revenue streams. The most savy Commish we had was Mark Cohon. He was plugged in to marketing the CFL & would understand these new platforms. He would be a better leader than Ambrosie is. Too bad we can't get him back.

Truth. People don't have the money anymore. Companies don't have the money for corporate tickets. Tens of thousands of people have been laid off. Ticket prices are too high.

When the Stamps charge $80 for seats on the 35 yard line it's the reason people don't buy those seats.

Why?

Teams just refuse to lower single game day ticket prices. It makes no sense. Question: Is Naman Roosevelt on the roster for Friday's game.

It's just hard to believe there aren't 20,000 CFL fans in Toronto. Gonna be growing pains. His upside looks to be tremendous.

It is so sad to see. How can the Argos not sell out a 25,000 seat stadium in a city of 6 million??

What. A. Shitty. Crowd.

They're not talking about one thing over & over nor trying to find nicknames. And Ford just doesn't yammer on like Suitor. How can a pro player make a mistake like that blocking?

LaPo needs 10 on 2nd down. So he throws a crossing route to Dedmon for 6. Typical. Glad he's gone.

Sure, that's why I see young 20 something males on motorcycles doing 150 kph weaving in & out of traffic on freeways with a death wish. Most "Boomers" are in their late 50's -80's. They're not out partying. Ohh & then there's the Brainiacs at McMaster University last weekend. You're really on a streak today. #BrandonbusybeingBrandon.

Ha, ha. I'd take 50.

Well, I think we're kidding ourselves if we don't think Duke Williams won't make the Sask deep ball game a lot better. Williams height & jumping ability make him a matchup nightmare.

Okay, Tommy Joe Coffey, Hal Patterson, Nik Lewis, Allen Pitts, Geroy Simon, Milt Stegall, Craig Ellis, Terry Greer, Mervyn Fernandez, Tony Champion, Joe Pop, Brian Kelly, George McGowan, Earl Winfield, Terry Evanshen, Ben Cahoon, James Murphy, Tom Campana, Darren Flutie, Rhett Dawson. Tom Scott.

I'm just waiting for that reverse pivot & somebody pancakes him.

One game suspension would equate to one game paycheque so to put it in the proper perspective that would mean 2 weeks pay for you if suspended. How would you feel if your work suspended you for 2 weeks? Thing is, Lawler didn't kill anyone. Yeah, he messed up & will pay dearly by being suspended, loss of a game cheque & being shamed by the public. Plus now he has legal issues to deal with that may or may not have negative consequences on his playing in Canada. Lawler is looking at a heavy fine, loss of driving priveliges & maybe even jail time. However, he's not a murderer so it's a lousy analogy.

This is a super Rider media tire pumper. For him to say that... wow!

I don't agree about the Riders secondary. They are great. Legends in their own minds.

I grew up in an alcoholic family. My father was a drunk. My Mom couldn't drive. You have no idea how terrifying it was going to a wedding or a social event with my parents. Then watching my Dad drink himself into oblivion every time. Afterwards sitting in the back seat of our car with my dad piss assed drunk driving home. There I was sitting in the back seat as a kid just praying we'd get home without being killed. So many times. There was such a feeling of helplessness by me all those times as I was too young to drive. I can only imagine how helpless my Mother felt. She never got her drivers license because she was born in 1912 & raised on the farm something like 10 km from the nearest school so she only had a Grade 2 education. She could barely read or write. She didn't have the confidence to drive. I get what Lawler did. It was so wrong to put himself & others at risk. I hope this was just a one time thing & he learns his lesson.

Wasn't Hughes convicted?

Everybody makes a mistake. Lawler has let everyone down. Bad, bad judgement call on his part. Not only did he get a DUI but he violated league mandated Covid 19 protocols. He may sit out longer than a single game. We'll see.

Fajardo looks like he may win a set of steak knives.

This has been something that goes back to the Shivers-Barrett era 20 years ago. Playing undisciplined football. It seems no coach or GM wants to really get rid of that selfisn Me First culture on the Riders. Guys like Marshall & Gainey are yappers who seem to enjoy selfish & undisciplined play whether it hurts their team or not.

I always review a thread going back one or 2 pages just to get a feel for the conversation. What do you make of Cody Fajardo's comments? Not only did he criticize his receivers but also Jason Maas's play calling as well as not agreeing with his call on the late interception. Not a good situation.

Yeah, a week.
