Toronto had been doing this for awhile.....as in, when MOS was there.....and it's a policy he kept from that time. Simple.

We aren't the only team with the policy. In fact I think most teams operate this way now.

Looks fantastic on mobile!

Curious how much growth, if any, J-Homo shows in camp this year...

We didn't re-sign him, I believe, on account of all the drops.....we had a chance to bring him back, but chose not to re-sign him.

"Chris Jones is so good, we only need to play 16 games to win the Cup!!" -- Riders Fans

Kopitar is not the best player in the league, so no, he's not as good as Toews.....but he's really ******* good. 10m good? No....but close...

Import receivers I have a really hard time with paying big money in FA.....that's the kinda thing you just GOTTA be able to recruit for. There's so many down there that might not be NFL calibre, but would fit in nicely up here.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but there's a lot more to that Esks offense than just the QBs. That whole team was a lot deeper/more talented than the Riders currently are. I have no doubt Jones is going to do some serious house-cleaning and make a ton of changes, but still....long way to go.....

Kopitar is very very good. He's not as good as Toews, but he's really good. I don't hate that contract for him....

Pessimist =/= realist. Untrue....but in this guy's case, very much pessimist.....

Damn it...woulda loved to have him come home again, but I suppose MOS wants to keep that hat on. Also, there's an awful lot of you putting some serious stock in Trevor Harris. I don't know that he's necessarily the saviour for Sask that some of you think he might be.

Pretty much how I feel about all things. I don't buy into this "Anything that's good for the league..." stuff. I've suffered enough without a championship in 25 years.....**** EVERYONE that's not us....

Meanwhile Madani losing his mind on Twitter. That guy better relax a little...with all the weight he's packed on, he's likely to have a coronary over something like this...

Wowy....so Thorpe's gotta try and mend fences with Popp and Co......

http://press.cfl.ca/commissioner-orridge-releases-statement-on-noel-thorpe-matter Thursday, December 17, 2015 — TORONTO -- The Canadian Football League has announced the following statement: Commissioner Jeffrey L. Orridge has done a thorough and complete investigation of the facts surrounding the Noel Thorpe matter and has determined that Thorpe’s purported resignation from his contract with the Montreal Alouettes on Tuesday December 15, 2015 in order to secure a coaching position with the Edmonton Eskimos was invalid based on the terms of his contract with Montreal and the existing by-laws of the CFL. Thorpe is currently still under contract to Montreal and is not free to resign from his existing contract to accept employment from Edmonton, or any other CFLClub, unless written permission is received from Montreal in advance and subject to the current protocol of advance approval from the League office. Commissioner Orridge has also determined that Edmonton did not violate the existing CFL by-laws and will not be subject to any discipline in this matter.

gary lawless ‏@garylawless 5m5 minutes ago confirmed: @cfl commish completed his investigation into Noel Thorpe issue and @EdmontonEsks have been cleared of any tampering allegations

The situation alone is evidence. He didn't just decide to quit and coincidentally get scooped up by Edmonton as finders keepers. I haven't really been following the story on Thorpe and I am not 100% sure on the "Tampering Rules". But if Thorpe talks to Edmonton about a job then quits and joins them is that still tampering? Or is it only tampering if Edmonton goes to Thorpe without asking permission. ...and, along with this, good luck to anyone trying to prove which way this actually happened...

This Thorpe situation is just so different because it's a blatantly lateral move, and there was no attempt to contact the Als for permission to speak to the guy. It's, quite simply, a disgruntled employee looking to get out of a pretty iron clad contract. If you don't say no to this, then why bother having contracts??

The deal is that DJ is taking on the old Danny Tanner role. Essentially she's a recently-divorced single mom, and Stephanie (who became a world traveler) moves home to help her raise the kids, and Kimmy ends up moving in, as well. Stamos (who, I believe, is exec producing) is going to be involved full time, and Coulier will be there a lot, but Saget is just going to have some off-and-on appearances.....from what I've read anyhow. I think a new generation will enjoy it for what it is....saccharine, family entertainment...

Dear Santa, I would like 1 Saskatchewan RoughRiders season completely in the tank in 2016..... Sincerely, Noeller I would prefer a Bomber playoff spot or is that too much to ask? I'm an optimist and assume that already for 2016
