DR. CFL

Well Hall is injured and there goes getting a box of popcorn for him now. Nice work management team.

Hey Miller is already hinting about keeping Burke. I guess Miller has anointed himself as President ( permanent) and GM. The more it changes the more it doesn't

The statement of meeting the financial obligations of 2013 is a joke...trickery and a play on words. Sure they will meet their obligations. Any repayment has now been delayed until 2014. I for one don't like to be played. That is exactly what Miller is trying to do by making that misleading statement.

I guess every team can now call Winnipeg in pursuit of the first pick overall. The next question is why does a team waste their time negotiating with people who may not be in a position to even make a trade at the end of the season?

Why do people still believe that a playoff bound team has any interest in trading a QB that they may need before the end of the season? I don't understand why people continue to think that is going to happen?

So based in that you think unprotected potential FAs get a free pass and then you can protect the other players you want? Good luck rolling the dice on that bet.

Blame the player or the team for not having an in depth conversation before you bring players in?

There needs to be better evaluation and discussion with these players before you bring them inform a cup of coffee.although the pr expansion has no cap implications it still is a waste of money for a team bleeding red ink.

I am not sure about the logic of not protecting a group of players that will be FAs. I guess if you have an entire team of FAs the logic is you can't lose everyone? Interesting theory.

This is part of the PR league expansion timetable.

So MOAB, u are conceiding that those NIPs FAs will not resign in Wpg and should remain all unprotected? Don't forget Etienne. Curious as to who you do want to protect. It will be a challenge.

Maybe we can get the Feds to advertise as part of their "Action Plan" BS campaign as the bombers who not to do it.

Old School , I think you may be correct. I think there are too many people involved with driving this bus. If Miller wanted to be GM he should have hired himself. He brought in MB, how is that going, Boutus and Bo smith , Hamilton rejects yikes. Next up ...wait for it Rick Worman ...yes.... When he was scouting for Ottawa last year he got offered up to Mack as an offensive consultant. Courtesy of his connection thru Miller and Miller's BoD buddies. So if you think you have heard the last of Worman's name...wrong. He remains in the picture thru Miller. So the back door BoD BS goes back and back and remains as a lingering stench.

One other issue teams deal with in terms of their starting NIMPS is having a viable backup at the starters spot. If Muamba goes down the next guy in at that spot is Labbe. We all know the sentiment of him as a starting MAC. That has to be part of any plan when placing your starting NIPs. Do you have ta major fall off when you have to sub for him? Hence the challenge at DL, MAC, corner.

Well as indicated by the Sun article today a number of players, as expected are not going to resign now and will test the market. This really comes as no surprise, and you can't really blame them given the chaotic atmosphere they have been subjected to.

What makes you think that. Check the history on just how slow this process has been in the past.

Wrong...SMS is on the calendar year. 2013 ends Dec.31st.

I repeat....what makes people believe there will be a huge surplus of money to spend before FA. If I AMA potential FA I want to see who gets hired here, who signs here and who I am playing for before I sign. All that has to happen before Dec. 31st if in fact there is Cap money left. Do you think the GM, HC situation will be resolved by then?

Spend less this year. Given the number of bodies ( literally) and deadwood hanging around (Douglas, Sears et al. ) I would be concerned about theming making the Cap this year.

The sad part is piss poor is a relative term. As the talent pool gets diluted in Ottawa so the value of piss poor increases.

Heads up he becomes a FA in Feb. the CBA doesn't expire until the first day of TC.

People should review Mack's last go round with the Club. He the rode the coat tails of Bill Pollian's players. Remember who Pollian's was?

And all you armchair GMshow much should u pay him?

You can't pay Muamba what his agent is telling him the NFL will pay. He isn't signing sports fans. We the f would he? And why would anybody trade a box of tape for a guy who they won't be able to sign?

And then too Creehan is left to screw up the defence? That makes no sense either.
