Speculation on X yesterday that Rick Campbell will be fired as HC of the Lions on Monday. Ryan Ringmaiden will then be the full time GM in Vancouver. campbell then ends up in Edmonton as their HC. farhan Lalji isn'y denying it. Some big changes coming in Lionsville. These old, recycled coaches keep bouncing around. How is this any different to what a publicly owned Elks team would have done?? This league needs some new blood badly.

There are no great ball hawks anymore. You don't see DBs with double digit interception numbers anymore. Numbers are down but the coverages may be better. QB's have way better accuracy than a generation ago & defensive backs play more zone or combos than they did in the 70's & 80's when double digit picks were the norm. Defensive secondaries are much more complex now. Can you say Vernon Adams to Hamilton? I knew ya could. I fully expect that Bo will sign with the Riders then have a crap season & retire. No, I heard that he hates the Stamps.

Milligan better be buying Glen Suitor drinks all night because it really was him & TSN who pushed for the guy to win over Beverette. These guys should shut up & stay neutral.

We're finally getting our linebacking crew in order after Bighill was injured & says he's coming back next season. Guess that means that Osh will kick Tony Jones to the sidelines or practice roster in 2025.

Cue the Go Fund Me account in 3, 2, 1... All Cox Jr was doing was practicing lifting the Grey Cup with one finger per hand. Oh, wait... Riders don't win Grey Cups now do they?

Disagree. Streveler is old. In his early 30's. He can't throw with any consistency so we don't need him. Pierce knows that Streveler can't go all i on the playbook so he's given a group of plays that Buck thinks he can actually handle. We won't make the GC in 2025 let alone win it with him at the helm if Zach goes down. Our offense will be severely limited with him at the helm. Time to get on with grooming a new starter for after the 2025 season.

Yep, all Suitor talked about was Milligan. He barely talked about Ford. There are no real ball hawks in the CFL anymore. Guys with double digit interception numbers as in years past but guys like Ford cover so well & are tough to beat. Tyrell's just getting started in his career. I hope we can sign him to a long term deal. TSN killed the event & made it irrelevant. Scarf Boy just sat there & watched the awards ceremony become the awards cemetary & did nothing. All while proclaiming what a great partner TSN was. **** Ambrosie. Glad he 's leaving... Five years too late. The guy was too stupid to realize the only way to grow the game is to showcase your stars, for crissakes. Televising the awards event & the CFL Draft need to be a part of the next tv contract.

I have lived in Winnipeg. Born & raised there. I live in Calgary now. I can tell you I've been to Edmonton enough to know it's not any better than Winnipeg. Buffalo is a POS. Minneapolis has brutal winters as well. I've seen it snow here in calgary in August. One year back in the 90's, my wife & I took my In Laws from Winnipeg to see the Calgary Stampede Chuckwagon races & stage show. Early July & the temp was +2C. My father asked me, "How can you live in this place?" Players retire around 35 on average... they have maybe 50 years after hockey to live in paradise. That decade & a half short window closes awfully fast. Especially as players get odler. Sean Moynahan could have stayed here. The Jets wanted him but he chose to play for Columbus. A team that looks like it'll finish last in the NHL. He got his money. I guess that usurps championships.

I don't think that anything bothers this generation of players. They just don't care.

Yeah, he texted me pretty excited.

Why free agents don't want to play for the Jets is baffling. Especially since their record is what it has been the past two seasons. Their loss, I guess.

A friend of mine from Winnipeg is going to the Grey Cup courtesy of Save On Foods. His parents won their GC contest but as they're elderly they can't go so they gave the prize to their son & his wife. Flight, hotel & two tickets to the game all courtesy of Save On Foods.

Are we that brittle to think we can only win in the last uniform we wore? I know who Dave is & I"m not giving him up. I'm no snitch.

First on everyone's list.

Why won't O'Shea let us go with our best look? For years, the fans begged the team to bring back the old blue & gold look. Then they do & in 5 Grey Cup appearances we've never worn them. I don't get it. Ask O'Shea.

All I know is you can't wear vaseline.

I mean those 2 guys were so fortunate to have such wisdom from Harris to learn from. Meanwhile, their HS coaches already taught them that. Suitor is just insufferable.

I added Hamilton to make 3. I forgot about the Stamps. But they're so cheap they probably wouldn't want to guarantee Adams half his salary & who would they ask for in a trade? Beggelton & Judge??? Not much else there.

Kelly is their qb. Dinwiddie has made that quite clear. Good chance he'll be ready for training camp next season. Or he may miss the first 3 or 4 games. Can't trade Adams to the Als. They have Fajardo & VA would be owed half of his salary which would be $250,000. The RedBlacks seem happy with Dru Brown, The only 2 teams that make sense are the Ti Cats, Riders or Elks.

You mean **** Randy. He went to that meeting in the spring of 2020 with the MPs totally unprepared asking for financial assistance & said the league loses $20M every year. Too bad he wasn't a Liberal hack as the feds take care of their own. It's probably a blessing we didn't get that money. Can you imagine the Bombers having to give up a significant amount of their yearly surpluses the past 4 seasons to help pay back the debt we'd owe the feds? Then there are the teams losing money. Would MLSE or OSEG have held onto the Argos & RedBlacks? Would the Elks have folded? Would Amar Doman have bought the Lions? Or Paladeau the Als??? The league would have looked much different with a huge debt to the government always looming....

Remember, Harris is such a great mentor. He taught Oliveira & Ouelette to take half the tackler....

The Argos have won 18 Grey Cups. The last time they lost a Grey Cup game was in 1987 when they fell 38-36 to Edmonton. Since then, they have won every Grey Cup they have played in. They won in 1991, 96, 97. 04, 12, 17 & 22. They're waaaaay overdue for a loss. We'll be the team to give it to them.

If I'm Amar Doman, I'd give the GM job to Ringmaiden & take it away the "Co GM' title from Campbell. The way he coached the Lions I'd not trust Campbell to be able to do both the HC & GM's job. The qb position became a clusterfuck & never had to be. That was Campbell's fault. He's lucky Doman never canned him.

Ouelette can't take the pounding like Brady can. There's more to being a running back than havinf big arms.

There's one guy in the video. One row above & two seats over. He waved at the camera. He was enjoying the drunk's performance. Passing out standing up only to suddenly wake up to expertly guzzle half a beer without spilling a drop. Snickering the whole time knowing he's glad he ain't Him.
