I'd assume Calgary would also be looking for a receiver, I'm not sure about the cap space situation with them.

I used to watch the NFL when I had loads of free time (pre getting married and having children). The level of talent is insane and despite the games being much slower pace, I do find them entertaining. Also the fantasy football used to be really fun back when I had time to join a bunch of leagues.

Getting anything for Zach at this point is a good move for the Riders. If I was them I would re-sign Bridge as the 3rd stringer just in case they run into injury troubles and are making a play off run. Toronto is grasping... hope and a prayer is what they are doing.

Is it bad that I'm glad Wilder is not playing purely because I cringe at the thought of listening to Rod Black reminding everyone that Wildman Wilder is a wrestler every time he carries the ball.

Their is no interest in this event at all from the casuals, this wasn't like the heritage classic where even fringe hockey fans wanted in on the event. The same even goes when we had the Womens Soccer games at the stadium, I heard much more of a buzz of those games then from this NFL exhibition. If I were them I'd slash prices in half right now and try to salvage what they can.

So do you think they do a price cut the week before and then a blowout the day before the game?

They created a task force in Manitoba with 10 employees which I'd wager would cost at least 1 million per year in salary dollars alone. Despite the fact that the majority of the missing women were murdered/kidnapped by someone in their family/community which rarely ever provide any assistance. I am fairly certain other provinces have the same. Each division also has an Aboriginal Policing unit which locally also employs 10 - 20 people at a high cost. These 2 bozos in the woods are on the run and are extremely dangerous and killed innocent people and clearly will kill more if need be. Everyone including their own parents think they will be going out on a blaze of glory shooting anything and anyone they can. What kind of insane world you live in where you think it's ok to just let them hang out and eventually hope they come out and fall into the laps of police. Absolute crazy talk from you....

Confirmed... Bigblue thinks Chamblin is on par to Bud Grant

Dane Evans had a decent start last year against Montreal, I wouldn't write him off as crap just yet.

On the radio this morning Bauming suggested that they left him in to give Nichols a chance to show that when the team needs him that he can pull through with a game winning drive at the end of the game. It made me think of all the times that Calvillo (or any of the other greats) would march down the field and take control of the offense and pull through at the end of the game. It would be nice to know that Nichols can do this more often then not.

Tens of millions? Not even close. Also what would people say if the RCMP were to say, to save money we aren't really going to look for these two guys who are on a killing spree murdering innocent people for no reason? The citizens would freak the F out.

Is 66 yards passing a record low?

Forget not last season when Nichols struggled and the fans booed, he threw a hissy fit and blamed everything else aside himself. The guy is super emotional so when he's down he's really down.

Nichols **** the bed, it was bound to happen. The guy was playing way above his normal level so it's not surprising that he stunk the joint up. I'm just more so concerned that when it was obvious that he wasn't bouncing back with good play that they didn't sit him for a few series.

What the hell is wrong with you guys? Complaining about the Defense and Andrew Harris. This game was a perfect example of why Matt Nichols is not the guy you want to lean on when it counts. The guy is a very emotional player and when things go bad he unravels and plays scared and falls apart. I blame the coaches for not sitting Nichols after the first two series and let Streveler play a series to calm the guy down. Also Andrew Harris and Lucky Whitehead should of been running a tonne from the get go. Bad gameplan by LaPo and terrible execution from Nichols. Chris Matthews dressing makes no difference when Nichols starts getting excited and either one hops or floats balls into areas where receivers can't make plays.

Why isn't Streveler given a chance , maybe have him run QB sweeps non stop?

Harris should of ran the ball 20 times tonight .... Hamilton has a terrible run defense and they facked up by not exploiting it.

This is the type of game where a change of pace at QB may jump start the offense. But O'Shea's loyalty most likely will prevent this from happening.

Yes but as a person listening to the radio, do I want to listen to non stop ads? It's absolutely atrocious.

So I tuned in for the first few minutes of the game and Hamilton gets 2 TD's .... I stop watching turn the game back on and just now Nichols lobs a terrible deep ball for an INT. I am the one to blame!

Harris needs to run the ball in the 2nd half, Hamilton has a terrible run D and for some reason we are not exploiting it?

Game is over before it even started?

Because they are desperate for money. It's pretty damn clear they are hard up when Irving has to constantly queue ad promos on top of taking endless commercial breaks. CJOB is ridiculously cheap for ads so it's no surprise that they have a bunch of local ads.

I thought XFL had contracts around 750 000 American?
