I always hope for the best and expect the worst. #LoweredExpectations

It is stunning really how bad we have done in this game over the years.

No Cory Watson for the Riders, they're going with the two rookies. Takes away a safety valve for Fajardo and Watson is a pretty good blocker too if I recall correctly.

BC fires OL coach, Brian Chiu.

I don't get why they didn't put Santiago on, take K.Jones off and then add D.Wright for Harris instead of Malcolm Williams. Gives you another running back and a NI to contribute on teams. Still allows you to use a DI on a DB and DE.

I don't like them not adding Santiago. I'd rather have a backup rb versus and linebacker like Jones who is just playing teams.

I thought Duke looked good in camp for them? Man, a lot of Western teams could be getting better, uggh.

If you're a CFL team is it better to sign a lot of guys who you have for a short time but lose to NFL opportunities or is it better to sign excellent CFLers who will not get NFL looks?

Wow. Does he return to Calgary or look for other NFL opportunities?

Its not Dionysus is it?

There is some truth to Brown's comments. We don't run an offense where many wr will flourish. It's basically been Adams. Lapo's system seemingly doesn't allow for 3-4 wr to excel like Calgary's and Edmonton's do.

Honestly, I like Posey, Lewis and Bray all better than Matthews right now.

Baumming said that Matthews was at $107,000 for this year in salary and that the club saved $50,000 by cutting him now. What more does one want for evidence?

The worst game with Burke was the BC one with Boltus where BC had at least 2 tds on defense and I was wondering what the record for defensive touchdowns in a game was and whether we would break it. Oh and if Boltus would set a turnover record. Worst game I ever went to live.

That 2011 EF was a lot of fun. Could as heck but I just remember Garrett running wild and Kevin Glenn getting owned by our D.

Classy move by the Argos. https://www.cfl.ca/2019/08/29/argos-sign-darius-raso-one-day-contract/

History has taught me to be pessimistic about the LDC, I still have nightmares from the 2002 Rocky Butler game (so frustrating to see live). However with everything going on right now, this week feels like we are playing with house money.

From Penton's column this week and the Insiders: " (Willie) Jefferson is a ***** to play against, but (Drake) Nevis is the most underrated defensive player in our league. He’s a ******* stud in the middle. He gets up-the-gut pressure. Requires a double team. Makes it a lot easier for the guys on the edge when you have a dominant player inside like Nevis. "

Not shocking given his lack of production but still surprising news. We really do be the place where receivers go to die.

What was O'Day thinking not wanting to give him what he asked for?

After reading some quality posts, I am on the Yukon Snowshoes Bandwagon. Go Shoes!

D'oh I meant Kory Jones. Stupid first names.

Why sit Lawler or Grant when you can sit Greg Jones?
