  1. Questionable taste in scarves as well. For a guy who played so many years in the CFL I'm shocked about the way he's running the league from changing rules on the fly to this CFL 2.0 thing. There seems to be no real plan on how he's doing things. Just flying by the seat of his pants.
  2. Can you say chronic? I knew ya could.
  3. I'm not going to do a Top 100 List. It is much too time consuming & would literally take hours if not days so it ain't happening. If anyone wants to do one then have at it, I say.
  4. Can you even name a hundred players? Somehow I doubt it.
  5. Hey, I just asked a question. Whether you don't like it or thinks it's petty is of no concern to me especially since you want to argue about it. I won't be commenting further.
  6. Hope you're wrong. I'd hate to see the bankruptcy can kicked down the road a few years.
  7. I just asked a question, Dee. I can't help it if the guy shows up at every news conference wearing scarves. Didn't think it would upset blue_gold_ 84 so much. Enquiring minds need to know. 🙂
  8. Maybe we should have hired George as Commisioner of the CFL. Imagine the pipeline of Latino baseball players from Cuba we could have got?
  9. What is it with Randy Ambrosie & scarves? Is this some kind of fashion statement? My wife wears scarves all the time. Even at her office at work. Perhaps Randy is working on the feminine side of his manhood here. Is this similar to Brian Burke being too lazy or forgetting how to tie his tie so he just wears it loosely around his neck?
  10. Costanza got Steinbrenner hooked on Calzone's as well.
  11. Mike Kelly is nodding with both understanding & approval of that statement.
  12. I wouldn't even put him up in Top 100.
  13. Usually grooming a tailback means signing them & finding the best one to play. Then cutting the guy he replaces. Don't think we're there yet with Harris. Besides, he'll never be cut. He'll retire.
  14. No, he meant the Argos. I'm sure being in the steel industry, Stern is from Hamilton. That was such a Hamilton response & it was an hilarious moment. Randy Ambrosie just about fell out of his chair when he heard that. Stern - "Can I say that?" Ambrosie - "You just did!!" Stern was asked about Percival Molson Stadium & if the new ownership would commit to building a new stadium. He answered that he would concentrate on getting the fans back in the stands & then once the team is profitable look at building a new facility. No mention was made of the Als moving to a new baseball stadium if Montreal gets a MLB team back. Stern said that they would be "patient owners". That is, they will hire the right football people & put them into place & pay them to make football decisions. They will not be involved in the day to day football or business operations of the team. They may give advice from time to time but they will leave decision making to the people they hire. Bob Young was in attendance but at the back of the room out of sight. Stern paid tribute to Young saying he helped he & Spiegel through the purchase of the Als as well as calming him down this morning as he was extremely nervous as he is not a public speaker. he then asked Bob if the Als could have their draft picks back which got a rise out of those in the room in referencing the one sided trade that sent Johnny Manziel & 3 first round picks to the Als last year. They got involved in discussions with the league 3 1/2 weeks ago. This has been a fast process, said Stern. Ambrosie then explained that there was delay in the sale because the business groups he met for the most part were under financed. Or the principles of who were involved would change from meeting to meeting. With Spiegel & Stern they've been business partners for 42 years so the dynamic won't change. Stern said the team is well funded & money is not an issue. Ambrosie said they met with 7 to 10 groups wanting to buy the Alouettes.
  15. Taylor Loffler in the Top 10?
  16. The only thing I worry about is if it is a new owner that will be great for the league but they'll fire up their GM search again & grab Ringmaiden.
  17. As per twitter from CFL Communications. Ownership announcement, perhaps?
  18. No, the Bombers are in negotiations for the coaches they want back. And any new ones they bring in.
  19. Careful what you wish for. Built in Sarcophagus.
  20. Costanza's available.
  21. Poor Brady. Poor Belichek. My heart bleeds.
  22. Changed it for you.
