  1. Pretty much by the book as expected.
  2. I just find it ridiculous that his orientation is the thing that always gets brought up... Seriously who cares? Can he play football? Just seems that there's too much intolerance out there. I'd be awfully shocked if there weren't a hell of a lot of gay men playing football already.
  3. There is so little difference between the systems, it really comes down to I think their online system since that seems to be the big thing these days and the controllers. I've never tried the xbox really so I can't say but I found the playstation controllers always seemed to be too small and hard to hold. Best controllers for a system in my mind was the gamecube. Just so smartly laid out, shame that people loved to crap on that system cause they were too cool for Nintendo. Was a real nice piece of work that got ignored by developers because the playstation was the hip thing.
  4. Proulx has been the best ref in the CFL for a while now.
  5. If Dave Dickenson wanted to be a CFL head coach that badly he would be one already. His career goals though seem to be Calgary Stampeders Head Coach and he's happy to wait for his turn once Hufnagel steps back from the sidelines.
  6. I'd even take another Mike Riley (Coach not QB) era! Who are we trying to fool, at this point we'd take a Dave Ritchie era
  7. looking down your nose at community (clown) college types is a required course for completing any degree, though McArts degrees are doing it purely to have that sense of smugness and no real career prospects.
  8. There's legit science behind the winter blues. Lack of vitamin D can mess up people like that. In a climate like we have in Canada where sunlight hours in the winter are so short lots of people suffer a vitamin D deficiency.
  9. As if the mocking of Reilly and EDM for losing wasnt enough. A significant % of Riderfans are complete dickbags. The number is barely shy of 100%, so yes...agreed...it is a significant number. Still wringing hands over Austin leaving - the better he does the petty jealousy and general dickbaggery increases equally. Desperately need another Al Ford era...thin out their ranks a little... All I really want for Christmas is another Al Ford era in Regina.
  10. Guys who are most likely friends using social media to comment on things only they know about? THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!!!!!!!
  11. Bellefeuille probably already has one.
  12. Not to mention BLM doesn't appear to be a guy who chokes in big games like Burris & Glenn. Very true, those two are the biggest fair weather qbs the league has seen in quite some time. BLM just seems like a winner.
  13. Can't really see the Stamps having problems with the Ticats in the cup... unless they just flat out choke. That Calgary team is playing too well and I think they recognize the importance of shedding that image of a team that can't seal the deal after a great regular season.
  14. the very definition of a first world problem.
  15. No idea why the Bombers felt that they couldn't have held a Grey Cup this year. It's obviously a league payoff to Braley. Didn't the Bombers feel that they weren't ready to host it? yeah and that may have some truth, but come on, Braley gets what is it 3 of the last 4 cups while owning two teams? You think that's not the league doing what they can to funnel money to the guy?

  17. That's a tough argument to make. BLM is just one of the good young qbs in the league (Willy is one of them too) the big difference is that BLM is in a GREAT position. He's got a deep team with a deep coaching staff that is great at putting people in positions to have success. Yeah he's taking that opportunity and running with it, but he's getting a lot of help too.
  18. You guys have endured a similar suffering to the Bombers in the last decade or so. It's a nice win for you guys and your fans. I may hate Kent Austin but it was good to see you and the Ticat fans get the win.Yeah, congratulations to the Ticats. I've met a lot of Ticat fans in other stadiums and they've always been good guys. Plus, best uniforms in the CFL (aside from our blue and golds). And that boat thing was years ago, time to move on from it.Definitely rooting for them next week. Love to see them slay the red giant. wasn't that one of Glenns first times back in Winnipeg? Glenn probably encouraged that cause he's always got a chip on his shoulder over nonsense things.
  19. He is just so unbearable.
  20. when the Bombers do that people scream to fire the DC because look at how many points they give up!
  21. At 30 years old? I doubt that one. But, if he's becoming an FA I wouldn't mind if we targeted him. He still has probably 8 years give or take left. That's plenty of playing time yet. I don't see that as a concern. hah! How many 38 year old receivers you see anywhere? He'll be lucky and a bit of an outlier if he gets 5 more good years. Most likely he's got a couple good years then smaller roles purely based on experience. Well take then. But still. That's plenty of years still and there are plenty of lower teams like Jacksonville or Oakland that could use someone like him. Why would an NFL team go after a 30 year old receiver when they could just draft someone younger and faster and develop them and not have to worry about whether age will catch up to him sooner rather than later. The time for SJ Green to get NFL looks was when he was in his mid 20s, after that he's too old to be a prospect for NFL teams.

  23. Adam Schefter said on Twitter last week upwards of 10 teams have significant interest in him. He'll definitely be in the NFL next year. Even when the monday morning quarterback guys were up in the CFL they flat out said Carter was going to be in the NFL next year. It's not a matter of if at this point it's just a matter of who.
  24. yeah stewart is nowhere near good enough to play halfback in this league.
  25. I hate that PI over turn. hand fighting and the db won it so badly the receiver lost his balance and fell AND that ball was so over thrown it was uncatchable if you ask me.
