  1. Not sure who's going to win this one. I think Hamilton is the better team but I really like Montreal at home.
  2. Otis Amey
  3. What case did he have exactly? Explain please. He signed a contract, played dumb later. The cfl arbitrator upheld that the contract was valid. A non football court later ruled otherwise. The Tiger cats would have won the appeal IMO. The cats were likely so sick of Williams at that point they didn't want him back anyway. If Williams as you say was sure he would win he wouldn't have signed a agreement to return to the Cats. It was a joke to the league that whole situation, likely why the Chris Williams clause is in new cba that teams have to offer the 1 plus 1 to prevent other players from pulling the same sh&t again.He got what he wanted didn't he? Yes he did. thanks for clearing that up. Case closed, so to speak.

  5. Regardless. To say he had "no case" is simply untrue.
  6. Not only does it make no sense for the market but the arena was built long before the return of the NHL was even possible. So we're now talking build an 18,000 seat arena for the Moose. Was never going to happen. Cities are smaller then Winnipeg and building 18k arenas. You build for the future but this is Winnipeg where 4 lane roads are enough. Who? And just because they're building them doesn't mean they'll be successful.
  7. That is what it sounds like. But I'd be interested in seeing the full sequence of events, not one biased individual's take on it.
  8. Well .. technically he won .. he and the Tigercats reached an agreement that he would be allowed to explore NFL opportunities that offseason and that if he wanted to play in the CFL in either 2013-14 he would do so in Hamilton. Not offseason. He signed with the Saints in October while the CFL season was still going. He wanted out of his deal to sign in the NFL and he did. He won. No technically about it.
  9. Williams had no case? He won.
  10. That's such a joke. No chance.
  11. Not convinced we're getting the full story here. I'd have to see the full extent of the harassment. Not prepared to take the author's word for it as she has clearly made up her mind already.
  12. Yeah Denmark is just making big catches. Actually not targeted that often it would seem.
  13. Good point. Ladd is also the captain and coming off the best year of his career.
  14. Huge deal for Kesler. Are there implications here for the Jets? Kesler last 5 seasons: 82 GP - 41 G - 32 A - 73 P 77 GP - 22 G - 27 A - 49 P 17 GP - 4 G - 9 A - 13 P 77 GP - 25 G - 18 A - 43 P 81 GP - 20 G - 27 A - 47 P Andrew Ladd last 5 seasons: 81 GP - 29 G - 30 A - 59 P 82 GP - 28 G - 22 A - 50 P 48 GP - 18 G - 28 A - 46 P 78 GP - 23 G - 31 A - 54 P 81 GP - 24 G - 38 A - 62 P

  16. I think Marshall is going to shine as the season wears on
  17. I'm just wondering in our society if there is any precedence for something being "banned". What does "banned" even mean?
  18. Honest question, is any kind of symbol actually illegal? Like, say, a swastika, could I be arrested for wearing a big swastika shirt?
  19. No one said its a crime. You said no one is talking about banning it but obviously that's not true if Amazon banned it.
  20. That's your opinion, but its not everyone's argument. Many people are calling for an outright ban of the Confederate flag. For example Amazon pulled all items displaying the Confederate flag. But you can still buy an Xbox controller branded with a swastika. Go figure!
  21. Funny stuff. Now do the 2023-2024 lineup.
  22. I really hate trying to pass this game off as luck. Yeah it wasn't pretty but they worked hard for that win and I don't think it was luck at all. The Adam int was a good defensive play. He read the pass and made a break on it. The Randle INT was just a bad decision by Cato, but bad decisions happen in football all the time. The punt block was a hard work play by the special teams. They brought some heat and it paid off. The D still has issues but they gutted it out and did make some stops when they had to. I would call this a character win more than a lucky win. Yes I would have to agree with this. The Bombers won because they made plays... not because the Als were shooting themselves in the foot or anything. I would add that the Randle INT was a bad decision by Cato but he had a ton of pressure in his face from the Bombers D so that's a credit to them as well.
  23. They are comparing Chamblin to Greg Marshall now. It's awesome. Full scale meltdown.
  24. Lots of flags but I can't help but blame the players rather than the refs. I'm seeing a lot of flags but I find myself saying "Ya okay, that was a penalty" on pretty much all of them. I truly do hate the flags but I don't know what you do. Just let the penalties slide?
