  1. It's really a dumb angle. Like a single wrestler challenges all the McMahons? Disjointed from reality as in real life they could destroy Owen's wrestling career. Why even go there? Fans know the story with the McMahons.
  2. Nothing Jones does surprises me.
  3. Knowing Jones though, he'll covet Vernon Adams or the kid from Edmonton James Franklin .
  4. Ed Gainey was the difference & the absolute best player on the field.
  5. Craptastic last play. Please tell me Bridge isn't emulating Cam Newton wearing that towel over his head.
  6. Well, that'll do it. Lousy stupid East Division.
  7. What a dipshit penalty by Hecht.
  8. It is effective.
  9. Gable is such an overrated running back.
  10. No one is riled up. No one is outraged. We just have differing points of view. I guess you're just different. Since you keep bringing up age here, this is for you. I'll gladly put on my old man's pants. You can wear pull up diapers as you're a big kid now.
  11. Exactly what I've been saying.
  12. This is a decent discussion. Lots of very good points.
  13. Have you seen him since? I haven't. That was an epic embarrassment for the CFL. How can you say that lady wasn't robbed? Otherwise why would the CFL offer her so much if the ref made the right call??? Glad we won the game but that was a bullshit call.
  14. Do you dismiss Dan Dorazio's comments that I posted last night? He has been an OL Coach in the CFL since the late 90's with Wally. He thinks this is a terrible decision. He's coached hundreds of players the last 20 years. I'd say his opinion carries as much weight as any player.
  15. I once had a neighbourhood cat poop in my flower bed. The Cat must've been smarter than me as he did it when I wasn't around. We live in harmony.
  16. Nail the refs too. Has that head official whose crew robbed that Bomber fan of a million dollars worked a game as a CFL Head Official since?
  17. You'd think with the Eye In The Sky, CFL officials could overrule an official in a situation like that with Reilly. Again, total inaction by the CFL when they have the technology to make changes but for some reason CFL Control doesn't want to take away the game from the refs which is ridiculous.
  18. I'll take your word that I may have said that but I don't recall which is fine. My worry is more injuries. Deron Mayo of the Stampeders was quoted in today's Calgary Herald as saying that the Stamps don't push contact very much. That Dickenson gives guys maintenance days. That they've had no contact since training camp. Yet, they are decimated by injuries on the OL, receiver, DL & DB positions. Dickenson was quoted as saying he still doesn't know what he's going to do about receiver for their game vs the Lions Saturday as they've run out of bodies even on the PR. So, I think that shows that little or no contact during the week doesn't prevent injuries during the week. Spencer Wilson broke his hand during practice. Again, no contact.
  19. I just see that kind of argument here maybe a little too much. That anything new if it isn't considered a good thing by someone then they're labelled old & crotchety by the Millennial crowd. This isn't about being old, It's about having a meaningful discussion & presenting your side of the subject. So, I was just a bit dismayed when I saw the "old man's pants" reference. I thought, "Here we go again".
  20. Those guys have been around always. They're the coaches that need to change. i remember up to about a decade when players couldn't get water if they were thirsty & were called sucks if they asked. Back in the 70's when I played you didn't dare ask for water or you could be running or doing extra conditioning. It could be 35 C & there were only a couple of water breaks during practice. That was so wrong yet it was part of the culture of football. That is to toughen you up. As far as concussions go, I still say it's incumbent on the officials to call head shots. They don't though. So, guys will get hurt in games & the dumb ass officials won't call it. The hit on Mike Reilly for example last Saturday by a Stamps DL. Obvious headshot but no call by the official staring right at the play. That ref should be called on the carpet to explain what he saw & why he never threw a flag. Suffer the consequences of his inaction. Only then, will the game become safer.
  21. Of course the players will like this. No player is going to say they don't like this.

  23. You're assuming he'd want to go.
