    Not releasing the CBA for months and allowing an entire CFL's fan base to speculate incorrectly and get mad at the league seems kind of stupid as well. Numerous media reports about the 2 QB thing since last May, thousands of tweets/posts/comments from concerned fans and not one thought to maybe clarify. Kind of stupid Mr. Ambrosie.

    I agree. One of the worst commissioners for over reacting and changing rules on the fly.

    With the exception that Michael Bishop was a much better thrower. Same 2 cent brain tho.

    Yes, it has been this way for a couple years now since the NFL expanded their PR size and eligibility.

    I am not worried about our DBs at all. Our scouts have done a great job with finding good ones and I see no reason why that would not continue.

    Restructured doesn't mean paid less. I would bet, just as we did with a Bryant a couple years ago, that they simply tore up the old contract so that they could give him a big portion of his money upfront using unused cap space from this season.

    I brought in that video before the football team I was coaching was about to play a big playoff game and played it to them. We destroyed that day. However, I am not a professional coach, and in my defense the movie was a bootleg while still in theatres and most of my team had never seen it before. One of the greatest football movie speeches of all time.

    If the XFL shows even a fleeting chance of breaking even I will be gobsmacked. You speak of a following the AAF had? The revenues vs. expenditures don't seem to agree.
  9. GCn20
    All of this predicates on a guy actually getting paid for a whole season. As the AAF has taught us...that's far from a sure thing.

    Being a severely biased homer is written into their contracts. No joke. Two people in the past 3 years have been fired by the Riders for making critical comments about the club. Carm and even the ultra-homer Rod Pederson both fell on their swords for mildly criticizing the club. Just unbelievable really that they don't allow the voice of their franchises to have a shred of integrity or dignity in their job execution. Taylor is basically told Riders best, Bombers worst...no matter what the reality is. Rod Pederson had a pretty frank discussion about this after being fired by the Riders. For the first several years he had to have weekly meetings with the Rider organization where he would be told what his talking points were and what he would say. Sounds like Russia almost.

    Did you mean immobile? If so I agree.
  12. GCn20
    Just illogical really. We have to play in the cold so let's practice in perfect condtions so we're not ready for it.
  13. GCn20
    In fairness to the RIders they have a semi reasonable explanation that they were trying to keep the status of their QB under wraps. However, Hamilton...just plain stupid. Saskatchewan, ultimately stupid too but with good intentions.

    Why in blue blazes would any team need to practice victory formation? Don't even practice that in Pop Warner after the first year.
  15. GCn20
    No, they're right that OL didn't move much at all. Waved their arms like matadors at guys running by them, but move...not so much. I guess that is kind of the definition of a pylon really.

    A 4 score lead is garbage time. The fact that Toronto took advantage of it, and we let them, doesn't change that. Richie Hall, as he normally does with a big lead, put our defence into a prevent defence and that makes any QB look great. Problem is he did it much too early in the game.
  17. GCn20
    I've seen multiple clips of Duron Carter doing it as well. Does that make him a locker room leader?
  18. GCn20
    No kidding. Collaros, Nichols, Streveler, Arbuckle, and Masoli are all better QBs than MBT. Why would we pine for the 5th best QB available? MBT as a backup if and only if Strev is in the NFL. Otherwise signing him would be nonsensical imo.
  19. GCn20
    That game was garbage time. He had nothing and was down 23 points until we decided to quit playing that day. That wasn't MBT beating us, that was us checking out way too early in the game and then losing all the momentum.
  20. GCn20
    Not to mention garbage time stats.
  21. GCn20
    No I don't Mr. Trudeau. lol

    I was hoping for Jason Maas and that someone would make fun of his ears.
  23. GCn20
    It helped their offence out a lot. What hurt BC was how much they paid for Reilly and even more so was the fact they let 10 out of 12 of their D starters go and replaced them with pylons because they couldn't afford Reilly's contract, and their FA shopping spree, and keep their roster intact. Had Reilly taken baby steps the Lions would have been much better.
  24. GCn20
    For sure. They were devoid of leadership and character throughout the entire organization from ownership through to waterboy.
  25. GCn20
    If QB is your need then it can help out immensely. Comparing Edmonton is not an apt comparison. Harris was not making them better at QB because they had Reilly the year before. Also, QB was never Edmonton's problem, it was defence and poor discipline.
