  1. Dalton, until I get bounced or he actually scores.
  2. Agreed. He sees the suggestions, pulls a George Constanza and “does the opposite”. “Putrid roster management? I’ll keep on keeping on doing it my way instead. Criticisms of that approach? I’ll point to the number of games it has cost us (zero by Speedflex’s admission) vs. the win-loss record I’ve compiled the last 6 years. Any other complaints?”
  3. You win the internet this afternoon, good sir! Soda out my nose.
  4. That’s only a kickoff rule. If player is out of bounds when the ball is fielded, the ball is considered an extension of the player and is itself out of bounds, making it an illegal kickoff. Don’t ask me why it is allowed to be that way.
  5. Please identify when and in what way his roster management has cost us a game in the last few years. And sitting Collaros in a late season loss to rest up for the playoffs does not count. Neither does simply having Liegghio as our kicker count as “roster management”.
  6. All I know is if we are talking socks, I would like this striped look back.
  7. I’ll jump on the Dalton bandwagon until the first few games shake out.
  8. It’s 8 pm Thursday and it looks like picking is closed, but if I can still register my picks for the week (just got off work) I would like to pick all home teams this week.
  9. Sensing some simmering schaudenfraude on the board about a possible comeuppance for Booch if Holm sticks. What’s up with that?
  10. This just in: Mike O’Shea “out to lunch”. Nah, the year they turned on him was 2015 after 5-13. And 2016 after Medlock’s missed 61 yarder against BC. And 2017 after losing to the Esks in a home playoff game. And 2018 after the playoff loss in Calgary. And the whole “fire O’Shea” thread. And right up to half time in the west semi in 2019 when he needed to be turfed. Because fans are silly like that.
  11. With math skills like that, you must be mistaken for a Saskatchewan resident (or Riders’ special teams coach) all the time. Pfft - How is it having to deal with that?
  12. GCn20 predicting that the Lions will fold mid-season right before the playoffs and Calgary will be awarded a win by default in week 20 to give them 2nd place over Edmonton. Bold call!
  13. From the CFL Rule book: Article 7 – Dress Code A team is required to dress in a professional manner and shall be subject to penalty if a player fails to comply with the following requirements: (a) The team jersey shall be tucked inside the top of the pants and shall remain tucked in throughout the game. If the jersey is pulled out during the game, the player shall be required to tuck it in during a break in the play. (b) Uniform stockings shall be worn in such manner that no part of the player’s knee or leg is exposed. (c) Protective gear shall be worn underneath the team jersey, pants and stockings. When a short-sleeved jersey is worn, the color of protective gear on the elbow or lower arm shall be the same as one of the basic colors of the team. (d) The team uniform shall not be cut away or altered in any manner whatsoever. (e) White tape may be used on wrists and hands, but tape used on stockings or any part of the uniform shall be the same color as the uniform or equipment it covers. (f) Shoes of a standard football design, with appropriate football cleating, that have not been altered, deliberately or otherwise, in any manner and judged suitable by the Referee for the playing surface, may be used. Sneaker type shoes with no cleating may also be used PENALTY: L10 PBD The offending player is required to leave the game for a minimum of three plays and shall not be permitted to return until the dress code violation has been remedied. Substitution for the player is allowed.
  14. 2 predictions: 1. Someone will irk me by putting in predicted regular season records for all the teams, but the total wins and losses won’t match up. 2.
  15. Pigrome-MBB-Streveler
  16. I am more compassionate than you. If I saw a Leaf fan whose face was on fire I would beat it out.
  17. You know training camp is boring when there are less fights breaking out in practice between guys on the same team over stupid stuff and short tempers than the numbers of fights over stupid stuff breaking out on this forum. And his real name is George Santos!
  18. These guys from BC might like a word: https://www.cfl.ca/games/1594/winnipeg-blue-bombers-vs-bc-lions/#boxscore-home
  19. Only the third series ever to be a sweep with all four games won by a single goal. Habs-Sabres in 1993 (3OT games, all 4-3 score) and Anaheim-Detroit in 2003 (with a double OT and an OT game). Jets-Oilers was tight too, with three OT wins (one in triple OT) and the Jets win 4-1 but with 2 empty netters in that one.
  20. Actually that is the most likely scenario, him or Wolitarsky if we have a “Nationalized American” declared elsewhere that allows us the ration flexibility. But I’d say Bailey is the first to sit of the receiving corps if Agudosi just shows too much to sit.
  21. Unless you don’t plan to rent a car. Bit of a drive to get there.
