Why do we have 2 regular season discusssion threads?

Jesse Members 3.5k LocationWinnipeg Posted 3 hours ago I love smacking Randy when he’s down as much as the next guy, but there’s not much he can do here and he’s been very vocal that he doesn’t think Lemon should be able to play. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well then, the hearing should take place within 2 weeks of the announcement the player has appealed. The way it is now, it could be months before it's done which makes the process more of a joke.

I haven't listened to the Coach's Show in years as I no longer live in Winnipeg but when Bob Irving did The Football Hotline with Jack Matheson. Jack would pull no punches with the problems the team was having. After a loss & the fandom bitching about lost opportunities to score on the field or the secondary being lit up... even questioning coaches calls, they'd get (usually a random middle aged woman) call in & say, "Don't be so hard on the boys. They tried their best so Jack you stop talking badly about them, now. They're our Bombers & we love them!!" I couldn't stand those calls as Irving would just let them rant for a minute then politely say goodnight...

This is the thing about the CBA that shows me what kind of a disservice the CFLPA does for their members. They'll insist these ridiculous appeal clauses be part of the agreement yet they can't ever get more than (on average) a hundred grand increase per year in the salary cap. They think they do such a great job when the owners just say nope & the players back off. Yet, claim victory for dumbass things like this. Is it any wonder the cap barely keeps up with the coat of living? The owners will give them appeals on just about anything in the CBA but when it comes to meat & potato issues like money, they fail badly.

To give you an idea of the priority about the safety of women in the workplace, Pinball Clemons is getting an honourary degree from the University of Guelph later this month. Even after the bungled Chad Kelly affair. I certainly don't hold him in the same high esteem that I used to. https://www.guelphtoday.com/local-news/argos-legend-pinball-clemons-to-receive-honourary-degree-from-u-of-g-8975982

Akinesia. A disease which prevents people from voluntarily using their muscles. A form of paralysis associated with Parkinson's Disease.

Kenny Lawler

They've won at home twice, I believe.

I can't see the Stamps doing this. They'd probably tell a STH it's not their fault they aren't 3 inches taller.

Alright, the Brewers.

Rod's busy watching his son play for the Detroit Tigers.

But you'd probably watch the awards show.

So what? Let's keep making excuses for TSN after we find out just how cheap they really are. This is the "partner" that refuses to televise every round of the CFL Draft & doesn't even televise the league awards.

Love the optimism,

Lots of nice guys have been head coaches & failed as it's a cutthroat business.

The problem that BC has doing this celebrity stuff opening game is what do you do for the second game....third....fourth???

Ottawa is not well coached. Bob Dyce isn't a HC but there he is.

I dunno. You could have a Super Saturday the 2nd week of the pre season. Make a big deal of it. Maybe televise 2 or 3 games to get fans excited about the season upcoming. Really make a big deal of it. But it's the CFL, Randy Ambrosie & TSN. It just makes too much sense so it'll never happen.

What are you talking about???

Wow, how sad.

Both Lawler & Schoen's days as NFL players are over. We're not just a ground & pound team. We throw the ball. A lot. Sometimes maybe too much as Zach likes the deep ball. But to say we're a one dimensional ball team with just Oliveira grounding it out on the ground is wrong. This team reminds me of the Bombers of the mid to late 80's when we won 2 GC's & should have won more. We had Tom Clements at qb. We had Willard Reaves running for 1300-1800 yards a season. We also had Joe Pop, Rick House, Perry Tuttle, James Murphy & jeff Boyd catching the ball. No one called us a ground & pound team with Reaves ground game crushing opponents, The Bombers then, just like today, can kill a team on the ground or in the air. We're a nightmare for opposition DC's to prepare for.

The future isn't now. And we make no money on streaming anyway. We say this all the time but TSN does nothing to grow the game in Canada. Neither does the CFL. The leagues sits on it's boney, skinny ass picking it's nose. Meanwhile, you'd think that TSN would try to make 4 games a big deal in the pre season. Do something... Anything.

You could be right. I guess we'll see, I think based on the reaction of him practicing that one day that we can probably foretell what the reaction would be. I'm friends with about half a dozen Argo fans in Facebook & Instagram as well. They were all shocked & disgusted to see him out there.

Poobah randy Ambrosie sends out a tweet today saying he hopes fans enjoy Super Saturday & no TSN. Yeah, we can stream the games but still what a joke. I saw some photos of people taking pictures of the crowd at McMahon today & it's 1982-3 Montreal Alouettes at Olympic Stadium bad. Just before they folded. Between 8-10,000, I bet.

People Legitimately hate the guy. Having him practice & sending a big FU to safety of women in the workplace, the uncovering of prior sexual harrassment charges, being thrown out of a bar & threatening bouncers by saying he'll come back with a gun along with other transgressions as a QB in Tennessee & then in the NFL at Denver I think his career is over. If he comes back & the Argos send another FU to the league by playiing him, can you imagine the reaction??? Even Argo fans would be angry as well. He's done like a burnt piece of toast.
