  1. Can someone please remind me what the pay schedule is for the play-offs? If I remember correctly paid by the league, a fixed amount each round with the winner receiving more than the loser? Prospect of play-off $$ has to fall in our favour in contract negotiations.
  2. I’m not saying he was defiant of his OC but that he and his OC worked together to match his personal tendencies and that his personal nature took over when under fire and he created something great.
  3. Could any of our opinion of what Matt can and cannot do could be a result of the system? Could he have been following Lapos coaching with the check downs and throw the ball away? Possibly Zach looked at Lapp and said “hell no, that’s not who I am” and forced Lapp to open it up some? The play call in Calgary could have been a check down or throw away to set up the field goal and Zach ignored it and scrambled and tossed to the end zone for a almost miracle result. This team doesn’t play for miracles, it takes what it can and gets ready to do it again. Did I find this team more exciting to watch with Zach? Yes but as a fan I have to come to grips with the same thing the team has. For The W!!! It’s all about the wins...
  4. Nichols is getting paid that bonus, likely sooner than January too. A bonus for a FA at that time of year had to be a way to defer 2019 money forward to keep them under the cap this year. With the savings from having him on the IR so long they likely have the cap space to pay it out now for "services" already received. I would be surprised if the amount of that bonus was $200k as he would be deferring half his annual income. I expect that we will see Nichols, Strev and Jefferson re-upped before Christmas with bonuses against the 2019 cap. Others likely don't get signed until 2020 with bonuses applied to that year, of course as a fan I could also be completely talking out my ass...
  5. I'm the first to admit I am a total homer and know much more about the players on our team than the others. Looking at the FA's out there only a couple of names stand out that I would want here and those are National LB's DJ LaLama and Cameron Judge. I am not even sure we have a need or place for them but I think they could fit in the locker room here. p.s. How has Sam Hurl maintained employment this long?
  6. Not to keep bringing this up but I thought Hextall on Hockey had a pretty good take on why what Bill Peters did was so egregious how it extends beyond situational racism to a culture of bullying and degradation. https://omny.fm/shows/680-cjob/hextall-on-hockey-bill-peters
  7. There are more than a few players that I liked a lot more in the playoff run than during the season. Adams is the perfect example, seemed like a lazy bum much of the regular season but was an absolute warrior in the playoffs. Can’t decide if I want him back or am ready to move on. There is no question that Thiadric Hansen needs to be back and bring some friends.
  8. That’s it , I am 100% convinced that Maas here would be a bad idea and my season tickets (already renewed) will be for sale.
  9. Could be, I don't want him here. Other than the entire Rider organization he's probably my most hated person in the CFL. I don't know that Wade would sign off on it, just think how close to exploding Wade's head was yesterday with Nichols F-bombs, that just getting warmed up for Maas...
  10. I wonder what the back story is on that, seems weird. Medlock would be in the position to make that assessment but I wonder what his reasoning would be.
  11. Now that he's been to the top and shown who he is I am not sure he can get back to those ways. Would much rather roll with Buck.
  12. Speaking of Reinbold should he / is he interested in another shot at HC ?
  13. Wow, I think I would want to hear that from Osh. I wouldn't want Maas anywhere near this team, would think long and hard about keeping my seats with that asshat on the staff.
  14. One is a violation of social ethics one is a hockey issue. As @Noeller said if you don't understand how wrong this is, you are a part of the problem. What also needs to be addressed is how and why so many would have kept this quiet for so long.
  15. So with Lapo taking on a HC position are we okay with Buck Pierce getting promoted or do we have a dream candidate to argue about? Also, Dinwiddie as HC in Ottawa? Can't believe that is realistic.
  16. I wouldn't be surprised if Nichols comes back with an AH33 sized chip on his shoulder and is MOP next year after throwing for 5000yds. He showed that kind of passion on stage today. (I am not a Nichols fan, not quite a hater but find him boring to watch)
  17. Totally the imposter that I saw... When I heard that I thought WTF are you talking about? Now I do believe that you are correct in saying that he cut all ties and allegiance with the Argos.
  18. I was going to say I saw Gold Member on the video at the Forks but now I don’t know if I saw the actual Gold Member or the imposter.
  19. Watching the QB's talk from the podium at the Forks Nichols is back next year with Strevy and Collaros packs up this week and never comes back except to face our defense.
  20. From listening to his post cup interviews he really wants to take the CFL to the East coast. Can he stretch out a playing role long enough to be the first player signed by the Schooners?
  21. Matt Nichols in his "Game Manager" T-shirt has to be one of the best things of the parade. Someone get Strevy some real beer...
  22. I think I have to let the emotion of the win pass a little more but my prelim list of please signs would be: Offense: QB Collaros QB Streveler OL Bryant OL Hardrick OL Couture* RB Augustine* WR Adams WR Wolitarsky* Defense DE Jefferson DT Nevis DT Thomas* LB Jones DB Rose DB Sayles DB Maston DB Taylor
  23. Two sleeps later and I still tear up every time I read this thread. Almost had to pull over on the drive in listening to highlights of the Coach's show last night. Doing it again now remembering the emotion of Osh describing what it meant to him to have his whole family there this weekend for the win. If you missed the coaches show you should seek it out.
  24. CJOB is planning to live stream the parade and ceremony I read this and immediately wondered if Chris Jones thought we won with enough class...
  25. Here's something that just occurred to me. If Zach doesn't come back he won a Grey Cup with the Bombers having never lost a game. Has a QB ever done such a thing before?
