  1. Who is Andrew Scheer? Does that mean we'll be stuck with Trudeau for the next 15 years?
  2. Do you remember the guy who used to brag about how much money he made?
  3. CFL Zone turned into a Riders fan club where they could come over & bash other teams. Migs especially. It got so bad that members from other teams just stopped posting. The admin refused to allow mods to do anything. There was no moderating. The worse the arguments & insults the better he liked it. One member referred to CFL Zone as the Wild West of CFL forums as it was crazy.
  4. We're getting revved up for sure.
  5. Yeah, so sorry you blew your mind. Kinda explains things here. A mind is a terrible thing to waste. You should seek help. The guy had no qb training as he was a linebacker coach. We offered a supplemental service he couldn't provide so I lose no sleep over helping the kids who wanted qb specific training at the time. Besides, the kids kept going to his camp so he never lost any players. As with what Mike & the others did here. they offered a service they felt was better. The market (members) spoke.
  6. This kind of thing happens in business all the time. It's called competition. My son wanted to start a qb school a few years ago & I was working with another coach at a football school that he owned. I knew the players as I was coaching them & contacted them to see if they wanted private qb tutoring which they all did. When the other coach found out he was livid. Thing is, he couldn't provide the qb training my son could & while we did use his clientele they were still free to go to his workouts as well as ours. Was it the ethical thing to do? Probably not but how else were we going to get the word out? Plus it was for the benefit of the young qbs in his school with a service the other coach wasn't capable of providing so I don't feel bad for what I did. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.
  7. Thought so, too but it was obvious after awhile that he had a huge man crush on Goltz.
  8. He was actually serious. LOL!
  9. It really doesn't matter now, does it? That ship has sailed so why argue about it?
  10. Whatever happened to Grumpy Old Man? He disappeared when the 2 sites came about.
  11. You're from Iraq? Did you know Saddam? Should have convinced him to join here. He'd have become so busy maybe he'd be alive today posting here.
  12. Feel the same way. We have two now but 3 was unsustainable. OB lasted about 2 years longer than I thought it would.
  13. Nate is just disgusting. What a sad shell of a fan he is with so much bitterness. He's so jaded that he's totally bled out. If he cut himself not one ounce of blood would come out.
  14. I think that's a pretty accurate way to describe it. Most, if not all of us have never met Colin in person. He's a facebook friend of mine & seems like a decent chap. We do chat & he's still a Jets & Bombers fan. I have no idea what happened to bring the schism with this site & OB. I do remember some harsh words were said by some here towards the guy when the break occurred especially one or two members here which I won't name as they know who they are. One member in particular who barely posts here anymore. I never had to deal with Colin on any level other than a poster on OB. I think he kind of lost interest in OB & became like an absentee owner thinking things would go on peachy keen forever but they didn't. He has told me he regrets not being more actively involved back then. That he made a mistake. Other than that, I don't know much else. He never really discussed what happened & has kept things to himself. Others probably know more & are free to discuss it. Or not. I just read Mike explanation & he spells it out. Again, Colin never thinking that things would change & failing to adapt. Just like Darwin's Theory of Evolution, if you don't adapt for change, you die & become extinct. Simple as that.
  15. More like 4. Three? Two? One? Bang! Zoom! To the Moon, Jones!!
  16. What a cluster**** Trump's Presidency is. To say it's been a clown show wouldn't be doing it justice. Meanwhile Trump's base like the job he's doing.
  17. Is it gone? I hope so. Sad, but why keep a website open with no traffic & two guys talking to themselves. Some of you here don't like Colin but this site wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the work he put in at OB. I respect the guy a lot for what he did.
  18. I wonder how many noise complaints the police will get that night?
  19. Glenn is serviceable. If he is surrounded by talent he can carry them. However, he can't go out & win games solely on his own. Big question mark for the Riders is the offensive line. Dennis is a huge improvement but it's not enough. I'm not even factoring Vince Young into the equation as I'm certain that if he starts, he'll be a bust.
  20. The two 55 yard lines. Must be the same guy who painted the Chefs in the end zone.
  21. I agree with this. Huff runs the show in Calgary & he has absolute final say. Being professional in your job is his #1 concern. He wouldn't put up with the goings on the Riders have had the past year & a half since Jones took over. Jones seems to be the kind of guy where being professional in your job is like 8, 9 or 10 in rating what's important. The Rider brand has suffered with holdouts, fines, illegal recruiting, illegally keeping guys on a second secret practice roster, etc. Second year now that the Riders are having trouble signing their draft picks to go along with the circus Murphy has been very involved with. Murphy like Jones tried to get away with being unprofessional & according to Reynolds are now on short leashes if they screw up again. I'd say having every Rider draft pick hold out is another screw up. We'll see what, if anything the Riders President does.
  22. Booker T mumbles. Sometimes it's hard to understand what he says. He's terrible as an analyst. Jerry Lawler should be on the Raw broadcast.
  23. Breeze is from Kelowna, isn't he?
