  1. You're right about a couple things. Hotel X is not cheap and it is near the waterfront. A 40 minute walk to Scotiabank Arena is not something I would consider close though.
  2. He knew it was coming. It was reported that he would not re-sign with Toronto unless he was given assurances that he would have a fair shot to win the qb1 position. Whatever Pinball told him was enough because they got him to sign a new deal.
  3. Currently... he's betting that they will remain like that over the next few years and that the XFL demos are good enough that a network will be willing to pay that kind of money. If either of those don't happen, his plan is shot.
  4. Yep, just realized that he signed last week.
  5. I just realized that Arndt signed with BC last week so I guess Ottawa is still a possibility as well. Lapo knows Davis and they didn't include him in the house keeping they've done. They did sign Kevin Anderson who was with us for a bit this past season so Lapo might be looking at him as QB3.
  6. I don't see him landing with any team out east tbh. Ottawa seems set with Arbuckle, Davis, Arndt and a few others. I guess Montreal could go for him but he'd have to be willing to sign for a real low price.
  7. Bryant Mitchell disagrees. He shared his thoughts on twitter the other day when Adjei got released by Edmonton. He figures it's one of the reasons why you see more 1 year contracts.
  8. If I'm Walters I also remind Willie how many guys are being released by T.O. just before their bonuses are due & how much extra money he stands to make from the playoffs with us. Just some extra food for thought when he's weighing his options.
  9. It's an OK game, worth playing, especially for Star Wars fans. It's closer to KOTOR than anything else that has come out for Star Wars games but I didn't find it to be on the same level. I enjoyed it but was definitely hoping for more (I found it very short) so there is lots of room for improvement in any potential sequels.
  10. Yep, and when he got back, he joked about how his late start to the season was due to him exhausting all his NFL options. 😂
  11. I wonder if they re-did his contract at some point because the articles all say his rights were traded in exchange for a conditional pick. The wording makes it sound like an Arbuckle-type trade where Montreal gets the pick IF he signs with Toronto.
  12. And the WWE stock dropped over 20% in the hour immediately after this news came out.
  13. Other Bomber related players at a quick glance (most are neg list players or guys who never made it out of camp) : DC Defenders: Jhurell Pressley & Sam Montomery Dallas Renegades: Philip Nelson NY Guardians: Mekale McKay Houston Roughnecks: Sergio Castillo St Louis Battlehawks: David Rivers, L'Damian Washington, Taylor Heinicke, Trey Johnson & Brandon Reilly. Tampa Vipers: Quinton Flowers, Donteea Dye & Robert Priester Seattle Dragons: Mohammed Seisay
  14. Not sure when he did that but I noticed it last week when the article about the club targeting Collaros.
  15. If that's the kind of guy he is, he could have easily packed his bags & went home towards the end of the season when he was a healthy scratch. Not only did he not do that, he was one of the biggest cheerleaders on the sidelines. I would argue that Nelson would be a bigger risk considering he spent most of 2018 on the retired list before deciding to come back late in the season.
  16. Yes but Wayne Gretzky is in the commercials so that apparently gives them a pass.
  17. He was injured twice last season (late May & then mid-July) and the 2nd time it kept him out for the year.
  18. Potentially adding Archer, Cage, Kross and Harper would definitely change the AEW roster. Would make for some interesting "heavyweight" matches.
  19. That's not being thrown under the bus at all and it wasn't the club who went to the media. Being thrown under the bus would be Walters holding a press conference and saying something like "due to his game manager status and being injury-prone, we've decided to cut ties with Matt Nichols and focus on signing a real QB... Zach Collaros". The reality is that once they made the choice that they want to bring Collaros back, they had 3 options with Nichols: A) Give him a heads up so he can start making other plans B) say nothing and leave him twisting in the wind C) give him false hope that he'll be back as QB1. They chose the most professional and respectful route available to them.
  20. Pretty sure Arbuckle gets a say in that... He was in Ottawa for the past few days but left without a deal which could mean he intends to see what he's worth on the open market.

    My concern with that plan would be that we probably don't see it happen for a long time. Conor has only fought twice in the last 3 years so at that pace we wouldn't see a rematch until about 2026, and that's assuming he wins those in between fights. I agree he would most likely do better the next time around but it's just such a bad match for him style-wise (tbf Khabib is a bad match for just about everyone).
