The Star Trek Thread!
They tried that with Enterprise & it didn't work. A lot of fans were upset the words Star Trek wasn't used in the title. Like as if complaint #4,236 wasn't enough.

The Star Trek Thread!
I'm liking this season a lot better myself. Didn't like the Klingons in Season 1 with their new look & still don't now. So, seeing less of them suits me just fine. I'm also liking the calm demeanor of Captain Pike through all the chaos. Not a big fan of the Sylvia Tilley character as she is just getting more annoying this season.

Center is used in Bob Swift's bio.... The caption under his picture uses the word centre so I'll just sat that both ways must be acceptable spellings. https://www.cflapedia.com/Players/s/swift_bob.htm

He may be right. I have no idea how to get Toronto fans back. That should be Job 1.

I'd love to see Trudeau forced into a leadership review if that means anything.

Alliance of American Football
Don't laugh at the AAF about that. When the Grey Cup was in Toronto 2 years ago, there was a pizza chain in Hamilton giving away Grey Cup tickets with every pizza order. Having the Grey Cup in Toronto with their (lack of) fanbase made the CFL a laughing stock. That city should never get a Grey Cup again after that.

The MBB All-Time Blue Bomber team: Special Teams Player
Hill made the spectacular plays like blocking 8 punts but Miller did the grunt work pn every play. He sacrificed his body to get in there & make the tackle. Fans respect that type of diligence & hard work. Miller got my vote as well.

What agenda would that be? Please tell me as I'm curious to know myself.

I was referring to sports leagues only. Rather than someone in another industry or line of work that isn't pro sports. In that regard, it's very difficult to compare what a welder does to playing pro football. An entry level salary of $70,000 plus is great money for anyone. But if compare it to other sports leagues & it isn't. That is what I was talking about. But I do get your point, Noeller. Interesting what kind of "agenda" some people think I have when it comes to player salaries. The only thing I want is for our players to be well paid so these fly by night leagues that come & go can't steal our guys.

Center Paul Desjardins. Never missed a game in 6 seasons with the Blue Bombers. Ninety six regular season games plus playoffs in 65 & 66. Played in the 65 Grey Cup. Just to be clear, in hockey it's centre. In football, it's center.

Chill dude. Always so angry. You're always just short of a vein exploding in your neck whenever you post. Don't want to have a stroke.

Except that isn't it. More than 3 hours a week involved. That's way too simplistic.

Compare it to other pro leagues. Compare apples to apples. Not apples to sunflower seeds.

Not surprising considering there is a new CBA coming. Keeping it status quo would never work. They can't just keep raising the cap every year by $50,000 increments either as it's eaten up right away by inflation as well as paying veteran players more money. They have to find a better way of setting the cap maximum. Even with a $14,000 raise for rookies while it's a start, is still too low. Maybe do what the NHL does by announcing the cap for the following season during the current one. That would be agreed to by the league meeting with the players & showing the books. There'd have to be transparency by the league to the players to do it that way.

We are a boutique league because we pay our players like they are retail sales clerks in a mall. Some random Canadian is making minimum salary& Ambrosie takes away his off season bonus he's owed. Yet the collective agreement hasn't expired. Before our Commish starts talking trash he should look in a mirror.
