Unless they completely ignore canon timelines, it has to be then since it's the events at the start of Fellowship (Bilbo's birthday party) that kick off Gandalf's suspicions about the ring - Gollum wasn't a concern prior to that. It's not clear in the movie, but there's a 17 year gap between that event (in year 3001 of the third age) and when Gandalf returns (in 3018) to have Frodo confirm it's the One Ring by throwing it into the fire. Frodo leaves the Shire in September of 3018.

I'm sure the lawyers weren't thrilled with Pinball's media scrum yesterday either. He was asked what he would do differently if he could and he said he would have asked a lot more questions earlier on when they were made aware. So, to me, that sounds like they knew but didn't take it seriously enough. They blew if off & now they have a lawsuit on their hands.

Definite fail. The Argo's also have a very loose definition of what participating means too. The video of him, running and throwing looks pretty participatory to me - allowing him to be at the facility is one thing but I don't think he should be on the field.

No it doesn't. While Kelly can currently attend practice, he can't participate due to the suspension.

I assume they still have a budget they want to work within so it's not just a matter of being able to take advantage of the promo money loophole. We have the highest paid QB & RB as well as the 2nd, 3rd & 4th highest paid receivers with multiple guys already getting promo money so they are using it, just not on a returner.

Nah, he's been trying to turn this on the woman from day one. Has nothing to with Kelly being suspended so I'm not inclined to cut him some slack. Had he taken more of a wait and see attitude, I might buy the "in shock" excuse but he's been this way since the allegations first came out.

I mean you're not wrong... their official name is le Club de hockey Canadien so in their case they would be CH due to the language. Yeah I can't imagine spending this much time on a sports forum and not having a clue about sports.

Both sides (at least according to her lawsuit and the Argos statement of defense), say at least some of the incidents happened in front of others. If the investigation got confirmation of what happened (one way or the other), it's no longer a he said/she said situation.

It was previously reported that Masoli won't be ready for the start of the season so I don't think he'd be an option.

Yeah Murphy & Pinball were mentioned by name (along with others). Not sure Murphy tried to bury it but when it was brought to his attention (allegedly) he kind of blamed her for opening a can of worms that didn't need to be opened.

Tried Firehouse on Friday evening and the line was the same. They definitely do not skimp out on the meat but almost to a fault. It was so messy trying to keep that whole thing together. I'll take that over not enough meat though.

The wording in the CFL statement is pretty clear and it's not a good look for the Argo's who filed a statement of defense last week stating they had no knowledge of this stuff and what they did know wasn't quite what she said. They say they are going be talking to the club about their role in this but if the investigation showed that Kelly clearly violated the policies, I don't see how there won't be punishment coming for the Argo's front office as well.

Nope, this was Nate's store: https://www.chrisd.ca/2010/03/05/beatnik-village-books-discs-osborne-street-winnipeg-bookstore/

I believe they are called the Tennessee Titans now. 😏

He was on the injured list all of the 2022 season, released before the 2023 season and now moved to the retired list so it seemsit might be a bit different than past situations. If he was still trying to make a comeback, they could have used one of the first two methods.

Looks like Stove has retired. ☹️ https://3downnation.com/2024/05/02/making-room-b-c-lions-release-veteran-canadian-dl-david-menard-transfer-dt-steven-richardson-to-retired-list/

Who do you think he is? Damian Jackson?

Oilers off to round 2 and PLD is off to the golf course (again).

Four added the roster: https://www.bluebombers.com/2024/05/01/blue-bombers-add-four-to-roster/

Last pick - DL Owen Hubert from McMaster.

Maybe his service record is classified.

Second last pick - OL Michael Vlahogiannis from McGill.

Our 6th round pick is local kid AK Gassama.

Bombers take a swing, grabbing Giovanni Manu at 46.
