I hope that Hervey shows up in Saskatchewan during WF week and has some casual conversations with members of the Rider coaching staff. The irony of the situation would be too much. Maybe make coach Dicky an offer of HC and AGM as a promotion. Wouldn't that make Rider fans heads explode. They loved it when the RIders did it too Hervey....called him a big baby for complaining. Would love to see the shoe on the other foot.

Sure signing a ton of futures this year. Getting them before the XFL I guess.

The reason that almost every athlete has moved away from Stan is because masking agents don't really work well with it. If a guy was trying to dope and not get caught the steroid found in Harris's system is literally the last one they would ever pick.

Fair enough, but as I stated above I think Buck would likely coach far more aggressively than Lapo in the passing game.

Buck was a QB, and they love the passing game.

There is nothing 80's about how teams are currently running the ball. It's not like we are running out of the I formation with a fulltime FB.

His net average is not impressive at all. He can kick far down the middle of the field...that's it. Regina gives up the most PR yards because of it and the most rouges. Ryan is actually a liability imo. Just goes to show how little the media actually knows about the game.

Almost every coach has that in their contract. It's been done for years now.

They are crowing about Fajardo's selection as West MOP over on Riderfans, while wilfully ignoring that really he was just the baron of beef after the owners decided not to put the filet mignon on the menu. Hey, if they are proud that he is the 2nd rate MOP candidate in the West...so be it I guess. Yet another asterisk to put beside a Rider accomplishment. No media can ever take away the fact that Harris was the best player in the CFL this year. They can vote him down from receiving an award for it, but they simply cannot ever change the accomplishment itself. If whoever wins the MOP and MOC awards are happy knowing they are the best of the leftovers....all the power to them.

So you are suggesting it is just an uncanny coincidence that your opinion always falls contrary to the popular opinion here? I guess that's possible but seems improbable.

Why bother arguing with TBurg? He comes on here, sees which way popular opinion is blowing then holds onto his hat and walks directly against the wind. His opinion is formed only when he knows what everybody else's opinion is. If the vast majority of people here were in favor of Harris's exclusion he most likely would have been arguing that Harris should have been included. He relishes the role of contrarian, when you argue with him it scratches that itch.

Be careful of the undercover vice cop stings is my advice.

What's worse is that the MOP and MOC awards this year now come with an asterisk to whoever wins them. Our media didn't just rob Harris, they cheated the winner of the awards by keeping a top candidate out of the running.

Osh is going nowhere unless we fire him imo.

TSN stated the damage was pretty extensive. Oblique pulls sap power from the throwing motion. Fajardo may be done for the year. They can freeze the pain but if the power is gone there is nothing that can be done

Again...you are talking without knowing what you are talking about. There have been many examples of athletes who have successfully had IOC sanctions shortened by having supplements tested.

Media should not be involved in this process anymore.

Good. Hope he stays there.

Shunning the top Canadian (by far) and a leading candidate for MOP based on his play is good for the league Bauming? What an idiot. I have lost respect for that trio of goofs. I hope Andrew and the Bombers make access for them a lot more difficult now. Wanna play king maker, go use the washroom in the parking lot. Oops, sorry no players are available for comment right now Bauming. Sorry not enough room in the locker room for ya guys right now...you can come in after the players leave. I don't know why your press pass isn't working at the gate before the game, we can get new one to you in a couple months. I guarantee that trio of idiots just lost any kind of respect, cooperation, and goodwill they might have had in the Bombers locker room that's for sure.

Top running team Top run defence Numerous big playmakers on both sides of the ball Ability to dominate both sides of the LOS These are all reasons people should not sleep on the Bombers quite yet. This team is built to win games in November.

As it should be. Harris did the crime but he also did the time. His penance was paid.

Exactly. This ain't over yet. The Bombers are not the favorites to win it all but I sure think we have to be considered a dark horse pick.

Every division game is a 4 point game for them.

Maybe not letting the media vote anymore would be a better way to go or at the very least don't give them the freaking majority of votes.

As a writer you should feel the responsibility to vote in accordance with the audience that supports you.
