  1. DBs played Edmonton receivers a lot more aggressively and it seemed like the Edmonton receivers were stunned to a certain extent. Like they thought the game would be a lot easier for them.
  2. Would be expensive but it's a choice. Buy it or risk life without it. That's where the education piece comes in for the PA.
  3. WCB doesn't cover anything long term. It exists to cover short-term issues and loss of work for brief periods. WCB would have dropped Hefney faster than the coverage the CFL and CFLPA provides. Long-term disability does exist but it's only available to residents of Canada. This to me is an issue of education and something the CFLPA has to be on top of. You can only carry so much insurance. They should be offering their members additional injury and disability insurance for post-career that they can pay for while they play, especially for Americans.
  4. The CFL is really lucky all these cases are Americans. If they barred a Canadian with no conviction from plying their trade they would be sued like there is no tomorrow. Americans have no grounds to work in Canada so have no standing in court until they are permanent residents at least.
  5. We're talking peanuts. Like $30,000-$35,000 per team would give the PR guys $1000 a week as a minimum.
  6. Fogg is way better on punts and more reliable too. Lankford was an adventure. Aside from a couple kickoffs early in the season where he got a clean up the sideline he hasn't broken any big ones in months. To me it's a big waste of an import spot. Sure he's fast, he's the only receiver we've had in the last two seasons who hasn't been able to get into sync with Nichols. Where's Thomas Mayo? I'd argue we need a possession receiver like Thorpe or Mayo in this offence far more than a guy who runs fast in a straight line and can't do much else effectively at this level like Lankford or McDuffie. Could also be using that import spot on D.
  7. Not sure about West playoffs...to me the bottom 3 is turning into a bit of a turtle race, could see any combo of them 3-4-5.
  8. Wow. Never thought about it that way. All of a sudden every single 28 year old rookie CFL QB looks a lot better.
  9. Kinda goes against him either way. Guess INT is looked at more.
  10. They get 18 cheques. One per game week. Practice roster starts week 1 and ends once team is out of playoffs. 18x750 would be salary plus some allowances, so around $15,000 if someone spent the whole year on the PR.
  11. Poop would take Ekakatie off.
  12. Less than $15,000 per year.
  13. They had availability the next day. Wiecek is basically saying "wah wah I can't do my job" admitting he has no sources. Somehow Lawless didn't have this trouble with the Jets or Bombers/CFL who have had their own in house media for nearly a decade. Wiecek needs to do his job better. Lazy.
  14. The traditional media has no less access. Tait is in the same scrums as them. The issue here is lack of skill and laziness by traditional media.
  15. Hoping it's a hang around town re-sign next week kind of move. But he would be a nice add for a team like BC or Calgary who are somewhat lacking in possession YAC guys.
  16. Sit Lankford, dress Nevis or Green. Replace Westerman with a NI receiver.
  17. Or toss some picks at Hamilton for Cappicotti. Personally I'd bring another NI receiver onto the roster. Between Coates, Wolitarsky or Blaszko, Normand they can hold down a spot. Gets messy if Harris goes down.
  18. Good luck with that. The Als are one of the most worthless pro sports franchises in North America.
  19. Popp's problem is that he can't find and develop QBs.
  20. Changes to challenges. Toadaso
  21. I don't think I've ever seen that on an INT through just pure indecisiveness. I've seen someone double back to try to get around he corner and give up a safety but that was next level stupidity by Campbell. Even their good plays are bad.
  22. Maybe an option for the opposing team to have an untimed down if they accept the penalty and no yardage is possible (on the 1 already).
