Yeah, we have replacements. Who needs Bond, right? #famouslastwords

How Colin can make a statement that Couture is somehow ready with virtually no playing time is hard to understand. All I know our OL sucked until Bond started & now it looks like management has made the decision to replace him. If we start an inferior player in his place & Nicholls gets injured then that is on Walters for not managing the salary cap properly.

It was a salary cap move, Especially trading Hughes for 2 fourth round picks in the next 2 CFL Drafts. Here are two quotes from yesterday's Calgary Herald. The first is Stamps GM John Hufnagel & the second from Charleston Hughes: "It was a tough day at the office - no question about it. Charleston has been a soldier for 10 years. He's a big part of our winning ways but it's the salary cap era that we're in & I have depth at the defensive end position. A very difficult decision & we just tried to make the right choice. What's the right choice? What's the wrong choice? We couldn't afford as many as we had & one had to go. It could have been one of the other two." "I knew that there were going to be decisions that were going to have to be made. That was a stress the whole year about cap & stuff. But based on how I play & what I bring to the table, I didn't think I was going to be that player to be traded."

Oh, I accept it but I don't have to like it.

Nassar will get plenty of that & more in prison. Better keep his back to the wall.

He's the guy who selects the players that miss the tackles.

The Riders remind me of ambulance chasers. They sign everyone they can. Why am I not surprised they made a deal for him.

We need a true middle linebacker. True middle linebacker. We sign someone or recruit a player who can be an actual MLB with impact then I'll believe. I have a hard time believing a Leopard will change his spots.

The League Office & Randy Ambrosie. He's not clueless like Jeff Orridge was. You don't think that when a CFL star is cut after one year he won't know? Then there's social media with guys like Justin Dunk & other media members posting stories that so & so has a tryout with the Bills, Dolphins, Jets or other NFL teams. It'd be hard for teams to hide it. They'll comply.

Same coordinator so why would things change, Booch?

Dieter Brock.

You can't say that with any kind of certainty since BC has been fined for letting Awe out of his contract.

Right. Possession is illegal at the moment. So the law has been broken. Not struck off the books yet.

Can you imagine the tweet fest Donald Trump would have with this if he signed with an NFL team & it came out? You know the NFL wants no part of a guy like that. They suspend players in the NFL for that. He's now a career CFL receiver if he beats the charges.

He's right. This is the CFL & not the NFL. The league doesn't pay like that other league. Guys can have exceptional careers with the connections in the community to the business world most CFL teams have. They don't know how good they have it.

Justin Dunk just was interviewed on the Fan 960 here in Calgary. Didn't go into any details but he thinks the charge he faces in Winnipeg is much more serious & will be a problem for him than the weed possession charge in Sakatoon. So, it must be something other than weed. What a fool. You'd think he'd have learned.

He's talking side deals like signing a 2 year deal with the agreement a player will be let out of his deal aftwe 1 to pursue NFL opportunties when teams aren't supposed to.

Not sad to see Davis go. There was no progression of skills for a guy here for 3 seasons. They have to find someone for that #3 developmental position whether it be the 2 young qbs we have now or someone else.

Good to see Ambrosie coming down on teams that release players for NFL opportunities.

Was this Hervey's or Wally's idea?

Jones cut LaFrance today so the Riders wouldn't have to pay him a $20,000 bonus.

That makes no sense. So what? If you don't like it you still watch it because it's Trek?

It's obvious to me that you don't like Discovery so why watch or post here?

I wouldn't be surporised. They want someone to fill the seats...

I'd give you the thumbs up sign but somehow it isn't right. Just damned unfortunate.
