  1. In nine days on the job, Jones has been many things; ruthless, quick, smart, and dare I say flawless. - @jamienye #CFL #Riders *barf* Really .. how much can someone **** up in 9 days on the job?
  2. such an *******... Clearly not worried about his lack of insight or understanding of given subject #opticsbedamned
  3. And the purge begins in Riderland (not a lot of surprises) .. nternational running back Anthony Allen International safety Tyron Brackenridge International defensive back Weldon Brown International defensive back Marshay Green International defensive back Macho Harris National linebacker Nathan Kanya National defensive back Hugo Lopez International defensive back Terrell Maze National fullback Scott McHenry International defensive back Junior Mertile National linebacker Kyle Norris International receiver Jamel Richardson International defensive lineman Cameron Sheffield International quarterback Blake Sims International receiver Taj Smith International running back Chad Spann International defensive back Alex Suber International defensive lineman Derek Walker National linebacker Ryan Wellman
  4. @PentonKirk #Bombers have signed import DB Kevin Fogg.
  5. Companies ruined. Lawsuits still to be resolved. Value-engineering to important features like the veil. Unanticipated costs like the new roof for the arena. This all sounds familiar. First Winnipeg, then Hamilton, now Ottawa. I wonder if Regina will escape unscathed once the new stadium is complete? Probably not .. we just won't hear about it .. The Riders can do no wrong don't you know.
  6. Unfortunately, the logo SHOULD be able to stand on it's own .. if it needs context in order to be relevant .. it kind of misses from a branding perspective.
  7. I can't this douchebag .. I've never seen anything positive come from him. It's one thing to be critical when it's deserved .. but finding negativity in EVERY little thing the organization does it just too much. It's like someone in the organization kicked his dog, slept with his wife .. pissed in his cornflakes all in the same day. It's relevant because Knox was suspended for PEDs in the NFL. Not suggesting the PED use isn't relevant .. but it's the constant digs and framing any / all news in a negative light .. there's a way to report things without simply coming across as a petulant ****. Case in point .. Bauming reports the exact same signing .. reported the news .. didn't make a dig at the player in the process.

  9. It's not a stretch to say that one wouldn't affect the other, now would it? Wouldn't affect play design as much as the order of the reads and the decisions of the QB pre-snap. That was Marcel's MO though, he'd put together some absolutely fantastic games but he just couldn't do it with any consistency, he is the good hank, bad hank of OC's. This. Game planning from week to week was so hit and miss .. just wildly so. He criminally under utilized Marshall last season in favour of guys like Walker .. it was hard to watch.
  10. It's not a stretch to say that one wouldn't affect the other, now would it? Wouldn't affect play design as much as the order of the reads and the decisions of the QB pre-snap. You're still talking theory about play design.I want to know if anyone saw shorter, same depth route runs, as in what actually was run during the games, not how it theoretically should be. You saw all kind of routes when Willy was playing, but less so after he was out. Based on 10 games I would assume. Did anybody else notice route running? The answer to your question is yes, there were instances (multiple instances) where receivers were running routes to the same depth .. where receivers were in the same vicinity .. where there was nobody to drive a defender off to clear up the underneath route. Whether that's the play design or the receivers running poor routes .. I'll leave that to others to speculate on .. it did occur. I'm not the only one who noticed this.
  11. The former prize wasn't unclaimed .. if I remember correctly, the original winner wasn't eligible to participate in the draw .. therefore the pot was carried over.
  12. I don't think I would suggest that yet. There's little proof in his capabilities so far that I would suggest he's ready to lead a team, or even think that he'd be successful with a different team in an OC role. It's the same appeal that O'Shea had when he was being considered for a HC position .. hot new commodity .. largely unproven but CFL people are excited about his prospects.
  13. Again, this is where I will re-iterate my disgust for the fact that Sinopoli won MoC over Westerman. Guy isn't even an all star at his position but hey .. let's give him a participation ribbon because of the REDBLACKS stellar season.
  14. Vice President of Player Personnel if I remember correctly ..
  15. There was an interesting article (don't know if anyone has linked it here) that talked about the need to implement an "administrative cap" .. thought it was on point. I'll see if I can dig it up .. edit: here it is - http://3downnation.com/2015/12/08/its-time-again-for-a-cfl-spending-cap-it-saved-the-riders-once/
  16. And yet he had the second highest scoring offence in the CFL while in Saskatchewan .. also helped Durant to a Western all star nod in his rookie year.Not endorsing the hire, just refuting a point.
  17. Hopefully Chung sticks around .. we only have him locked up through 2016 IIRC ..
  18. Not a fan of the desktop experience to be honest .. more suited to mobile.
  19. With Jones apparently leaving Edmonton for the Riders .. what are the chances LaPolice gets the head gig in Edmonton .. especially in light of the fact that there is a decided lack of head coaching talent in the league..
  20. That's what I was thinking as well .. though I have to admit .. I'm woefully ignorant when it comes to the rules governing assistants in the CFL.
  21. It's pretty sad that one of their peers is "calling them out" on their lack of interest in the goings on at IGF ..
  22. Casey Creehan. Great position coach .. lackluster results as a DC ..
  23. That's the one thing I really noticed as well .. how good IGF looked on TV last night .. really impressive actually.
  24. Saw this story as well .. not sure what prompted the CFL to reverse their initial decision to allow them to "perform" at the game.
  25. I guess one could say .. only 50k in attendance in one of the most desirable locations in Canada at this time of year .. only 50k when they are drawing from almost 2.5 million people a population that's 4x that of Winnipeg .. but one wouldn't do that because there are infinitely better / more important things to ***** about. Winnipeg sold out its Grey Cup. By all accounts the festival and events have been a success and positively received. We're going to have decent weather for what should be a great game .. in front of a packed house. Are we. going to ***** about HOW we got there or simply enjoy the spectacle? I know what one I'll be doing.
