Rivalries, Late Starts, & Game Days - Attendance
A more centralized location compared to a location that only benefits one part of the town. Yes location is an important issue.

Rivalries, Late Starts, & Game Days - Attendance
Well considering a tonne of people complain about the location and the attendance has dropped... yes it must be only me with this opinion.

Toronto @ Calgary
Dennis was flat out lazy on 2 of those sacks. Arbuckle looks human, not terrible but that last int was very bad. Both teams can't run, Calgary looking very beatable this season.

Top Gun looks good.... Jay and Silent Bob looks very rough... Kevin Smith just hasn't been funny in years.

CFL Commentators and Personalities
Benevides is really good, hope he stays on for a few more years. The new PBP guy from last week I thought did a good job. Hopefully he replaces Black in the near future.

Rivalries, Late Starts, & Game Days - Attendance
My opinion for the lower Bomber attendance isn't so much the cost of tickets. It's a mixture of stadium being in an inconvenient area and the lack of marketing and interest to the younger demographics (mostly kids). I think once the Jets came back it swooped all the attention from the kids. I see tonnes of Jets merch on kids at both of my kids schools and barely anything with the Blue and Gold. When my nephew was younger and when he was in school I definitely saw Bomber (and Moose) gear on a bunch of kids. I think having kids under 15 for free would make the most sense , they would surely make it up the ticket cost with concessions and merch that they would sell from the kids being at the game. It's unfortunate that they Stadium is where it is but nothing we can do about it for now. It's unfortunate that more restaurants don't have offers where they feed and bus you to the stadium and back.

Ottawa Redblacks In Town Part 2
I wouldn't be to concerned about Matthews. I'm curious to see how Walker does and hope he gets rep on the offense since he caught everything that went his way in pre season.

Toronto @ Calgary
I think that I read that Chamblin is something ridiculous like 1 - 14 in his last 15 regular season games as a coach.

In fairness lately they've talked a lot more about the CFL then usual. I do find it odd though that they have zero time for the Goldeyes and Valour FC but can dedicated 15 minutes on horse racing which nobody cares about.

TSN even called it out that they weren't trying to disguise it at all.

How does any team not at least entertain the idea of Ricky Ray back when he was in his prime. Insanity.....

I was under the impression that this was for only this movie and it's not like they are spinning off the series with her as the lead.

I remember his success was when he was rolling out of the pocket and chucking it deep and letting one of his superstar receivers getting it on broken plays.

I'm guessing if Temple gets charged he won't be in Canada for long?

2019 CFL Season: Around the League
The Blue have been great at containing QBs this season so this will be interesting to see how Jennings handles throwing from the pocket.

3 stars plus hh arrblloowwwss
Wasn't it 5 seasons or so ago where everyone in the league was losing helmets at a higher frequency? I thought the league did something to change that?

Matt Nichols Discredited Too Much? Passing Yards Are Meaningless
Imagine how much better the team will be with a healthy Chris Matthews!

Why would anyone vomit? It looks tacky but it's pretty tame compared to a lot of weird weddings that have circulated around the internet for years.

Matt Nichols Discredited Too Much? Passing Yards Are Meaningless
Nichols despite not being able to string drives together is playing much better then guys like Masoli and Davis.... not a huge concern yet IMO.

The one tweet said he was using the team money to pay for his personal trips.

Week 5 Takeaways
Arbuckle made gold decisions and passes. His receivers were not good at all.

Barker would be a solid replacement. It really can't get any worse then Kavis.

CGY @ Ham - Time For The Stamps To Get Reality Checked And Have Lunch Money Stolen
What I saw from this game.... Masoli was hot garbage all night long... his receivers were making the catches but man o man did he struggle mightily. For no good reason either he had several plays where he had time to throw... seemed like he couldn't see the field at all. Was so off and that int in the end zone was absolutely atrocious. The new PBP guy on the Montreal game has already immediately surpassed Rod Black in quality. Aside from getting a bit excited and geeking out on Dunigan a few times, the new guy seems to know where the first down marker is and appears to be able to focus on more then only 2 players on each team. Ambles for Calgary is a liability, I ragged on him on previous games and it seems like each game he causes one big screw up that hurts the Stamps. I'm amazed he hasn't been cut yet. Calgary isn't so hot against the run and the short-medium stuff. Hamilton also whiffed on a lot of tackles and seem to have issues with covering the deep stuff. As already mentioned Dickenson came off as such a big baby tonight.
