Not a huge fan of Corey Graves.... I get what his role on the broadcast team of Raw, Smackdown & NXT is but maybe it's just a little too much.

Considering 20 years ago, the Riders were taking grain as payments for season tickets & holding telethons. Talking to farmers on combines.

Dave Raimey was simply an outstanding player. Great running back who had the ability to change directions & juke defenders out of their shorts. Nicknamed The Knife he was a great receiver out of the backfield. As well as a great KO returner. Top that off with the fact he could also play defensive back very well & he was one of the greatest to ever put on a Bomber jersey. By 1969, he had become tired of losing every year. Other than Raimey & Flanker Ken Nielsen there were no other threats on offense. He demanded a trade by going public with his beefs & was dealt to Toronto. Raimey had said the Bombers as an organization wasn't committed to winning which was a criticism directed at then Bomber GM Earl Lunsford. Those comments angered Lunsford. No player could criticize Earl publicly & get away with it. Even superstars like Raimey & Don Jonas weren't immune & both found that out as they were gone in a flash.

That explains why all these NXT guys showed up Monday & Tuesday.

Wanted to vote for my all time favourite player Raimey but... I had to give this to Leo Lewis.

Paul Bennett was smart. He could read his blockers. He wasn't lightning quick so he let his blockers set things up for him. He just ran to daylight.

Ha ha. Too bad. So sad.

Around 1975. Call it The Ordinary Superstar Rule. Same with Doug Strong. He had no blocking either when he played. He never dropped anything punted at him either.

Decision making as well.

LOL. What BS.

It will if it has $250 million. Once the $$$ runs it then all bets are off. The only way any league has a chance to be a success is if it takes on the NFL head to head in the fall. Competing for name players. Even then, the chance of success is between slim & none. No one cares about spring football.

Polian's goal was to have the NFL buy the AAF outright & make it a developmental league. Well, you can kiss that goodbye. Now the league that should have died is kept alive by a billionaire with nothing better to do.

Those kids should get some kind of minimum salary like 3,000 a month US. That's all they deserve, really.

Clip expenses? The league is full of duct tape now to help seal the financial leaks it has sprung. It doesn't strike me as a league that is extravagant.

Gotta wonder.

Yes, while she wrestled in the WWE. Triple H dumped her.

She was unstable partly from the way she was treated by him. As far as his kids go, I guess you could say as they get older they're free to draw their own conclusions. As you say, they can google her.

If Chyna was alive you can bet she wouldn't be on stage with Triple H.

Fans have been watching the NFL for 6 months. The Super Bowl was 2 1/2 weeks ago. All the hype that went with it. Then when it's over... these dumb American businessmen think fans want to watch crap football just because???? That's the problem with all the winter & spring leagues that failed in the past. Nobody does. Coming off a Super Bowl to watch a brand of football where 99.9% of players couldn't make an NFL roster. It's ****. It's crap. Very few people care. That won't change.

Bill Polian may know a football from a cocoanut but as a league organizer he's waaaaay out of his league. The mistake he thought was football fans want to watch a bunch of young, unknown & inexperienced kids play football but in reality, no one does.

Maybe some other suck.... errr…. investor will come forward. To me, how stupid is this guy??

Clever

Two cities had games with close to or above 30,000. San Diego & San Antonio.

They've had some real winners in charge over the years. Roy Shivers, Eric Tillman & Chris Jones. No wonder the culture of the club is the way it is.
