Toronto will have to wait its turn - Winnipeg, Ottawa and Hamilton will get GCs before Toronto gets one again.

He has been off the roster for a couple of months iirc.

Am I living in some kind of alternate universe where taking nearly 4 months to name a head coach is quick? I guess what he means is, it's quick (just under a week?) for Higgins to complete his staff . While O'shea is still missinng 2 positions... OL and LB.But most of the Montreal staff was hired before Higgins was hired. Besides OC what coaches did he bring in.

So you want this league to fail?? You sound like a great fan.... Oh relax....Brice & I hate Ottawa. We don't like Desjardins. It's the fans choice to like & dislike who they want. Do you like Saskatchewan? Rider fans? It's okay to hate a team but that shouldn't extend to hoping the franchise folds imo.

I think people may be making assumptions on what Desjardins said. We had something like 13 potential NI FAs going into the expansion draft. Desjardins said they weren't going to pick FAs. Maybe his comment had more to do with there not being any signed players unprotected for the last round than saying there wasn't any talent. Of course our media was going to claim it was the latter without even thinking it could have been the former.

No teams? Are you sure? @News1130Sports: #BCLions gm Wally Buono admits he does not have a solid CFL back-up qb - that's why he has held talks with Ottawa about Kevin Glenn.

You mean third chance. Hammy cut him before we signed him. Except he was a punter in Hamilton.

FYI - Old Dutch BBQ chips in the boxes are on sale at Safeway until Wednesfay next week.

Safeway carries them in boxes.

Yes he was a sideline reporter for CBC.http://www.canada.com/mobile/iphone/story.html?id=2337809c-bac4-4806-be8d-4eb9767c65b5&k=34864

I'm pretty sure he was on the PR at the end of the season.

Good luck to Buck. I hope he joins the Bombers in some capacity as well.

That just seems low to me.

Do you have any ballpark figures for a salary for #2?

maybe with incentives, but those would have fallen off this year due to lack of playing time. Not including incentives. I wouldn't be surprised if his base was in the $140,000 to $150,000 range. Mike, do you know any info on what his base was?

I would think he would be doing what every other OC does.

My bet is they are waiting for the mini-camp where Dahlquist can get a look at Hall and Goltz and then decide. As to who's more ripped? Dahlquist can concentrate on their mechanics. I would volunteer to see who is more ripped. BTW, just be thankful I didn't post a picture in that other thread.

Vince Li wouldn't have been "back on meds" because he was undiagnosed at the time Tim McLean was killed.

Iso, how many times have you seen news reports about a police stand-off involving someone armed in a house lasting for hours versus how many times you have heard reports of police storming the house immediately. Fact is the police can't shoot someone unless they feel they are in imminent danger of being attacked. They would have had to send officers on the bus which, given the design and very limited room of the bus, would have been dangerous for the officers. How long after he had started taking meds was this person you know guarding him because it can take 4-6 weeks before the meds take full effect and it can take time to find the drug and dosage that works best for a patient.

Li was on an empty bus when the RCMP got there. There was no imminent danger at that point so there would have been no legal justification for them to shoot him. People may not like that the RCMP waited him out but it seems to be pretty standard procedure for situations where an armed individual is holed up in a house or vehicle.

I thought they said it was because of a build up of precipitation already on the roof. If they had opened the roof wold it damage the roof and where would the accumulated precipitation have gone?

Who cares! The man is ripped. That's the most important thing.
