  1. Funny how some of you have written the guy off as a backup. I think he'll start in Hamilton.
  2. When you play football & are just one injury away from never playing again I think a player should listen to other offers & make a judgement from that. What's the average career something like 3.5 years? But like I said, it's ultimately Masoli's career & he can do what he likes as \i don't really care. #devilsadvocate
  3. Lol because maybe I'd get more than he thought. My take is he could have signed with the Cats anytime, right? I'm just sayin'. Truthfully, I'm just playing Devils Advocate here in the interests of discussion. If he wants to sign with the Ti Cats I could care less.
  4. Thirty to 40 years I'd say.
  5. If you're happy at the job you're at would you not listen to any offers from competitors who wants you to work for them? It may take a lot for you to leave but what if a company met or exceeded those needs? It doesn't hurt to at least listen. The Ti Cats will still be there in a few days. If I was going to wait this long to sign, I'd have waited 2 weeks longer.
  6. Our guys who took less money will all start whereas no guarantee Masoli will. Or if he does, that after a couple of bad games he won't be benched for Evans. That's when the unhappiness starts, Why not go where the money is & be the undisputed starter? At least listen to offers.
  7. Are you sure he isn't well liked?
  8. I promise I will give this a read when I have time in the next few days.
  9. Jason Kenney needs to retire.
  10. The guy who just retired from the Stamps today, Shane Bergman. I believe he was a 6th round pick.
  11. When he has a bad game & is benched for Evans we'll see how how handles it.
  12. Kenney is fist waving but the reality is we can't just go cold turkey off of oil.
  13. Transistion to what? Everything you use is because of petroleum. I didn't say we shouldn't transition. But it will take decades.
  14. Trudeau's climate policies are insane in a pandemic when we have to get the country rolling again. Oil & Gas still is one of the biggest contributors to our GNP providing thousands of jobs across canada not only in the Resource sector but ancilliary industries like manufacturing in Ontario. . We will be reliant on oil for the next 3 or 4 decades at the very least. We aren't ready for an oil free economy. Part of me hopes the Michigan Governor shuts down Enbridge Line 5 which sends Alberta oil to Ontario thru Michigan. That'll get Ontario's attention. This is supposed to happen in May.
  15. Masoli & his agent are nuts. He could have gone & been the man for another CFL team with more $$$ thrown in. Instead he took a Hometown Discount to be looking over his shoulder at Dane Evans chomping at the bit to play. Having 2 qbs like this is a luxury in the CFL because at some point there will be in juries & the Cats will be locked in with 2 expensive qbs to pay (CFL standards). Waitng another couple of weeks for offers to come in wouldn't have been a bad idea. O|ne or both of those guys will be unhappy at some point this season.
  16. So, a coach can leave when he wants but a player can't. He got paid to do zip with Edmonton. The Colts should be paying Edmonton compensation.
  17. Then these clauses need to be removed. No other league gets shitted on like our does by the NFL & our Commissioner & BOG's let it happen. Brock Sunderland's cum by ya comment that Milanovich is still his friend must sound so good to Eskimo season ticket holders. Coaches can come & go as they please while under contract but players can't. Huff wouldn't release Holley the Stamps all star line backer or their corner as they were under contract. Finally after months they relented yet anyone in management can just **** off if they want to go to the NFL.
  18. Ellingson is probably the more realistic choice of the 2 from a money perspective. .
  19. Nothing like a hundred million dollars to change one's mind. I don't think they have anyone ready to take over behind Rodgers. They have a 4 year NQRFPT hot shot who may have taken 50 snaps in that time.
  20. Anyone watching that game could see there was way more than 7700 or 8500, whatever the "announced" figure it was. Crazy the packers could get away with what they did by packing nearly half the stadium. But at the same time, I don't know what the Covid restrictions are for outdoor events in Wisconsin. I would think that the team violated State health laws.
  21. While I'm 65 & could retire now I plan to continue working while investing my CPP & OAS until I'm 71.
  22. I actually had a disagreement with a Packer fan on twitter who insisted that there were only 8,500 fans at Lambeau Field. I said it was more like 28,500 & he kept insisting it wasn't.
  23. So, after paying Milanovich to sit around & do nothing for a year he leaves. He got paid & didn't earn a penny. Especially during this pandemic when other coaches lost their jobs instead. I'd like to see the CFL take a stand with coaches that have itchy feet by taking them to court to get the team's money back that they paid out to anyone who does something like this. Milanovich & the Colts may have thought twice about doing this if they knew they might be held financially liable.
