Agree just trying to lighten the mood a bit. 🙂

Or as Calgary has demonstrated with some success, going for the 2 point convert more often.

Apparently the answer to this threads title is a hard no. I'll show myself out the back door.

Probably because I'm feeling super ornery after the Bombers gross lost but Nikita Zadorov and his agent can go F themselves. No matter what important skill sets Zadorov brings to the table, he comes across as someone in it just for themselves playing on a team sport. No way I would want him on the Jets knowing skill wise would be an incredible acquisition. And his agent seems incredibly scharmy and has that 'hey everyone look at me, I'm important' vibe to him.

Not a good look at any level of football. Can't be a spectator.

Yup I had the exact same thought after the game. Hope not. I know I'm in the minority and for good reason, but I still hold hope ZC can find his old form in some way, maybe not fully, but to a level where CS can fill in nicely and compensate for his deficiencies.

I think your last sentence will be very telling in how this team responds moving forward.

Lets hope he regularly clamps down where you rarely hear his name called.

With all the legitimate criticism thrown at the Argo's in terms of how some in that organization handled the CK issue, how about some questions for the Montreal organization in terms of the SL issue. I know its the players/Teams prerogative that he can play as his appeal makes it way thru the process but maybe Montreal could say SL is innocent till proven guilty but will not be playing until a decision has be rendered to ensure no distractions for our team with the tasks at hand with our upcoming games. They technically are doing nothing wrong on having SL play during his appeal but there are other routes they could have taken.

Hence why we need to enjoy every moment with our club right now. We’ve earned these stripes.

I wonder who Lemon is picking to win?

Maybe for a player (D or F) of similar value who is looking for a change himself.

You're welcome for the nice softball pitch I gave you there. 🙂

One of my ongoing goals in life is to never have my full name used in this context.

And btw if these same things were happening within our club with people of our own (players, management, staff) some of us would be saying these exact same things we are saying here when the details first became aware to the public. This is not just because its the Argo's although they do royally suck.

This is a perfect example where I welcome assistance from people who know the x's and o's of football way more than I do combined with watching what is going on way more closely than I am. When I watched Jake Thomas play last year what I saw was a player who very quickly went from fresh to tired resulting in little push up front. That's what I saw but maybe game tape and/or viewers with much more football expertise than I who are attuned to the nuances going on show something far different than what I see. The point I'm trying to make is this is a forum I can post what I see but am willing to be corrected based on the context I provided above. Win win in my books.

And being schooled by opposition who have.

Great point. Who says the GC half time show has to be music? There's other high end entertainment that draws attention.

And came across as stubborn and inflexible as an offensive play caller.

Said the guy who re-watches Titanic for the scene that plays My Heart Will Go On. Edit: Please don't hurt me. 🙂

I've never listened to the show and don't follow the media scrums but based on people I respect who post about this, it's sounding like the communication approach is sounding very Mike Kellyesque as in the world versus us forgetting of course its not just about the team but the loyal fans who support the team. Biggest thing I very much disliked about Mile Kelly's tenure here.

Yup we've been to the GC last four years in a row. Haters extremely tired of us. Everyone outside of our community is hoping for a different result. I get it, I know this aint going to last but sure am going to enjoy everything in the moment. 5 GC appearances in a row has a nice ring to it. Three Grey Cup wins in five consecutive GC appearances has a better ring to it.

Yes please.

Hmmmmmmm Mike Commodore. Seemed disgruntled wherever he went as a NHL'er. Doesn't come across to me as the most stable person so who knows how legitimate his 'concerns' are.

Less than less than half the snaps would be better please and thank you.
