The best linebackers we had were Greg Battle in the middle & West & Jones outside. Absolutely freaking dominant. I think the best 3 starting linebackers together on any team & any time period in CFL history.

I absolutely loved the way Brian Herosian played safety. For a few short years he was the dominant safety in the CFL before his tragic car accident. But the best safety we ever had was Paul Bennett without a doubt. He deserves to win this round of the competition at that position.

He really could throw a football through a car wash & it wouldn't get wet because the ball was bigger than the car wash, itself & destroying it.

Payton was not a linebacker.

He was a DE. He was a beast.

He played on the edge, yes. But no worse than other hard hitting safeties at the time.

He had to be as he built the place all by himself.

The House That Jack Built.

Hate em. Hate em. Hate em.

We played 2 out of 3 there last year. Let those damned sodbusters come to our home stadium so we can kick their useless collective asses. Exhibition or regular season, it still sucks.

Back in the days when teams played 3 games in 10 days & played best of 3 semi finals & finals. Totally ludicrous.

Doesn't the NFL have just 1 bye week for all teams all season?

Don't like the fact we have to play 3 games in Regina out of 4. That's just bullshit.

Someone has to be the one who has it.

Four years? Is he crazy?

You got it but Jacquie sure didn't.

Ryckman was interviewed a few years ago. He said he has no intention of ever paying Flutie. He actually acted like the money he owned Doug was a joke, What a low life snake.

Vince is aging quickly. His voice sounded weak.

There was no salary cap so the rich teams could raid the poorer teams. The CFLPA was fine with it as a lot of players were making good money although most teams were hemhorraging money.

I don't recall any player being called that in relation to the CBA. As was pointed out, there used to be separate personal services contracts signed separately by players back in the 90's. Didn't count against the $$$ amount of salary s a team spent as the owner negotiated it. I remember Doug Flutie had a $250,000 contract with the Stamps & a million dollar contract with then Stamps owner Larry Ryckman…. who stiffed Flutie by never paying him.

Over the CFLPA's dead body. They will fight to keep UFA. I don't expect any restricted FA or compensation. Or franchise tag. I do hope the floor goes up significantly for rookies.

Virtually the same, yes.

Are you talking about the difference between 3 down & 4 down football?
