Moon could run & he was deadly accurate. He played as well in the CFL as he did in the NFL. Immensely talented But in their primes, I'd still take Flutie.

So, I had picked William Stanbeck for this week but I didn't know the Als have the buy so I'd like to change my pick to Andrew Harris.

Defensive Linemen & Linebackers were too tired to tackle him.

BLM took a pay cut with the pandemic. I'm not sure Reilly did. I never heard that he did anyway but he might have. I know he bitched about not being paid when the CFL season was cancelled. He drove DC's nuts. He could scramble under pressure & improvise. Probably the best CFL QB that could ever do that.

No, Flutie just played 8 "unimportant & forgettable" CFL seasons. Here are all of his CFL stats. He attempted 4854 passes & completed 2,975 for 41,355 yards. He threw 270 TD passes & had 155 interceptions with a QB Rating of 82.6. He had 2 seasons where he threw for over 6,000 yards & 4 seasons of over 5,000 yards. He had 3 seasons where he threw 44, 47 & 48 TD passes as well as 2 seasons with 32 & 38 TD passes. He rushed the ball 704 times for 8,816 yards & scored 88 touchdowns with an average gain of 6.6 yards. Had he stayed in the CFL & not returned to the NFL, he probaly would have become the CFL's All Time leading passer at the time. As far as CFL awards go, he was the CFL's MOP in 1991, 92, 93, 94, 96 & 97. He was the Grey Cup's Most Valuable Player in 1992, 96 & 97. He was a CFL West Division All Star in 1991, 92, 93, 94 & a CFL East Division All Star in 1996 & 97. He was All CFL in 1991, 92, 93, 94, 96 & 97. He was named a CFLPA All Star in 1997. You're young so I'll cut you some slack but our league had some some great players before 2010.

What shitty tackling by the Argos.

No kidding. Then there was Warren Moon.

I saw him grab his left foot area. Probably a high ankle sprain. He hasn't left the bench so I don't believe the medical staff think there is a break.

Looks like Dane Evans suffered some kind of foot or ankle injury vs the Argos. He's out & Watford is in. Evans looks to be in a lot of pain on the sidelines.

The problem for Mike Kerrigan that day was Less Browne played the other cornerback position.

Reilly is the best long ball passer I've ever seen play in the CFL but he had some GREAT receivers in Edmonton for him to do that like Zylstra, Walker & Ellingson. He doesn't have the same level of receivers in BC although they're good. Mitchell spreads the ball around to his receivers. That's his style. He used to be an extremely accurate passer. He doesn't throw the long ball as well as Reilly but he can push it deep & he does. He too, benefitted from (perhaps) the best receiving corps in the CFL, as well. I really can't say which qb I'd take in their primes as they both were very good.

Anyone old enough to remember the brilliant idea the CBC had to mic up the penalty box on HNIC back in the mid 70's & an upset Bobby Clarke swore a blue streak on live TV knowing he was on camera? Apparently there were thousands of complaints across Canada after that happened. They only mic'd the penalty box that one time & never again. Sorry but I know what I'll be watching & it won't be tennis.

Gonna stay with William Stanback.

Ambles is being criticized by Calgary fans for being inconsistent & dropping too many passes. Hergay Mayala as well.

Mike Edem showed a lot of class yelling, "Bullshit call" into the camera. Deal with it, idiot.

Just because the other guys failed doesn't mean Jake Maier will. Printers was a headcase from the very first time he put on a CFL helmet & it eventually cost him his career. From what I've seen Maier is pretty well grounded.

I think three years ago Mitchell was at the height of his career. He was ranked 1 or 2 with Mike Reilly & then the injuries started. During his career, he's always had a great OL in front of him giving him lots of time to throw. Mitchell's always had great receivers catching for him so he did extremely well. Any good qb would have thrived in that environment surrounded by good to great running backs, strong OL, the best receiving corps in the CFL & the coaching of Dave Dickenson & Ryan Dinwiddie. Well, this is not 2016, 2017 or 18. It's 2021. Things have dramatically changed for Mitchell. The running backs he has now seem okay but neither Kadeem Carey or Ante Milanovic-Litre are flashy. They don' t look like a threat to rip off may 20-30 yards or better runs. They certainly aren't the second coming of Jon Cornish. His OL is a patchwork of backups as well as replacements & the receivers other than Kamar Jorden are all young guys trying to find themselves as players & seem to be playing tentative. At one time Mitchell could have put the offense on his shoulders & won. But not with this team. Not with the players he has around him. Putting him in doesn't give the Stamps a better chance to win than playing Jake Maier.

Hey Cody... On Saturday, the Bomber Defense is going to take you to SACK CITY!

Yeah, it was Maier's fault they lost. Alrighty then. Don't know what game you watched. I had a good laugh over what you said. Mitchell couldn't run before his broken tibia so not even a month later he should be spry as an Elk if he plays Saturday, right? I mean, he has such a good OL blocking for him he shouldn't get touched, will he? He was also having issues throwing the ball coming off his shoulder surgery of 2 years ago. But hey, still play the beat up all time great just because... over the backup who is outplaying him. They'll play Bo alright. Not because they should but because of his ridiculously high salary of over $700,000 a year.

The Kid is good. No doubt about it. It wasn't his fault they lost. The Stamps secondary played like crap. Little or no heat on Harris & they never really got to Harris so his confidence grew as the game went on. Stamps were robbed by the officials as Lemon was not offside. Mitchell is making $700,000 to be a pylon. His best days are behind him. If he continues to improve how can they justify not keeping him over Bo?

Jake Maier looks to be better than Arbuckle ever was. There definitely is an aura about the kid that even a lot of veteran qbs don't have. If Hufnagel keeps Mitchell over him then he is nuts. They have a young team so why play the hugely expensive old veteran with a banged up body & lose when they can lose but develop with a cheaper & talented young qb? It makes no financial sense to keep Mitchell next season.

The way I see it, when nothing was done to stop the rail blockades two years ago, people being allowed to demonstrate without the police enforcing laws in place or health regulations, it empowered these asshats to do what they want with little or no fear of consequences. It doesn't matter whether or not you agreed with the demonstration's cause or not, it created a feeling of empowerment for many people to air their grievances. The politicians & the cops opened the Pandora's Box & this is the result. Most of these people are cowards & would never do what they're doing if they were looking at the cops breaking up unruly demonstrations as well as huge fines &/or jail time.

He is a good guy. Nice story.

Looks like most people aren't wearing masks. Which one is the new Premier?

There used to be a Bonanza in Moose Jaw & Medicine Hat. When our kids were small in the early 90's we'd be driving back from Winnipeg to Calgary. We'd try to time it so we'd get to MH at dinner time so we could stop for supper. I loved the Salad Bar & all you can eat shrimp. I miss Bonanza & Chi Chi's.
