  1. I'm just waiting for Noeller to chime in about Zach's Italian heritage....he's a dirty Greek!
  2. These restrictions shouldn't effect Eli as he is CDN., they may be able to delay his return pending Covid status but I don't believe they can prevent it. As far as I know his home is in Hawaii, which in itself is a a very good reason to never come back.
  3. Here's what happens, Willie moves his family to Wpg. and retires a Bomber.
  4. I doubt Dinwiddie just traded Arbuckle without lengthy discussion, it certainly looks like Arbuckle did not want to share the QB position with MBT, or back him up and likely chose the trade option instead of showing patience. Salary was also a factor, just found this. Money also factored in the decision. John Murphy, Toronto's vice-president of player personnel, said the club couldn't afford to pay two quarterbacks as if they were starters, especially as more of Toronto's injured veterans become healthy and are ready to return. ``Having two starting quarterbacks was a really good concept until this point,'' he said. ``You can't successfully put your best ''A`` roster out there if at the same time you're paying two starting quarterbacks.'' https://www.sportsnet.ca/cfl/article/argonauts-trade-veteran-quarterback-nick-arbuckle-elks/
  5. I think that was Wade's first order of business.
  6. Kyle will probably keep Mourtada's number in his phone book until Castillo decides what his plans are. I'm not confident Liegghio will be ready to take over F.G. kicking next season, if anything this playoff run proved they can't afford to compromise that position. A great kicking performance can cover up for a lot of in-game deficiencies.
  7. Where does Nielson fit into this conversation? Rod Smith was calling the play.
  8. Were you listening to the game broadcast? Rod Smith announced the interception immediately and said "it's over" within the next second, he never questioned it's validity.
  9. Is Bailey not coming off his rookie contract? That may be were Darvin money goes. As for Jake I bet he's never earned more than $85,000 in all his time here, terrific bargain and seems to be getting better with age.
  10. There are definitely players that will be looking for pay raises and all that comes out of the pie that feeds other players, so something has to give. Nick Taylor, Darby or Maston may have to be sacrificed to retain the D rookies, Darvin may not be renewed and Harris may have to take a deeper cut if he wants to return, with Brady looking to be the man, Augustine probably leaves. My biggest concern is along the O-line, Couture, Desjarlais, Eli and Gray can probably go wherever they choose and stuff their pockets with twice the cash, it will be hard to retain all of them when other teams are desperate for O-line help. Neufeld, Stanley and Hardrick probably play out their careers without much fuss. D-line could see the loss of Kongbo and maybe Sayles as they step up to starter status and their pay stubs should rise significantly. Jake, Stove, Willie and Jeffcoat probably Bombers for life.
  11. What's that saying??? "Can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen." Fajardo signed up to play QB when he was a little tyke, so he knows all the attention that comes with the position. He gobbles up all the love, attention and "feelgood" when he does well, but doesn't want to accept the criticism when he falls short. Unfortunately "good enough" for him will not always be "good enough" for others, especially when being paid a large salary to perform a highly scrutinized job under the spotlight. He needs to learn to strap on a suit of armour if he expects to survive in a super competitive environment like professional football, where there can only be one winner, by default that makes everyone else a loser. As a leader of other men on the field all eyes are on him, so he needs to have the emotional and mental strength to deal with the responsibilities and pressures that come with the job, or opt out. It's certainly not for everyone.
  12. Some are comparing him to Reilly over there, so I don't know....plus he's smarter than Zach....Yep.
  13. He's a total wiener, if Darren Cameron was the Riders PR director he would have rushed in, pulled the electrical cord and shuffled him out the door to save the franchise from embarrassment. Fajaja was paid $415,000 this season and is scheduled to make $515,000 next season, he's blubbering and professing his love for Sask. because he knows he isn't worth that money and he doesn't have a hope in hell of getting it anywhere else! Slow as they are over there, they're eventually going to figure this out and boot his tail out the door.
  14. Just to note Buck has had to integrate zero new starters into his offence after inheriting a lineup that just won the G.C.. I can't think of another first year O.C. that's ever been dealt such a fortunate hand.
  15. The slots are Demski, Lawler and Bailey, who you going to move outside?
  16. CORRECTIONS 2016 Winnipeg forfeits their first-round selection after selecting Garrett Waggoner in the 2015 Supplemental Draft. Trent Corney picked in 2nd round. 2017 #1 Faith Ekakitie Say no more. 2018 Winnipeg forfeits their third-round selection after selecting Drew Wolitarsky in the 2017 Supplemental Draft. 2019 Desjarlais + Kongbo 2020 Winnipeg traded a conditional first-round pick and a third-round selection in this year's draft to Toronto in exchange for Zach Collaros and a fifth-round pick in this year's draft.
  17. Bombers better be prepared to almost double his salary, if he wins his second cup he might want to be paid in the same range of Reilly and BLM.
  18. "The North Water" starring Colin Farrell, if you liked "The Terror", you might like this.
  19. Another great example. Chris Palmer wrote, "Burn that s— down. Burn it all down." George Floyd Protests: This NBA reporter wanted things to burn until it hit his neighbourhood.
  20. Did Charlie Manson have a son? Just asking. JUST IN: Duo Arrested For Fire-Bombing Minnesota Courthouse - https://breaking911.com/duo-arrested-for-fire-bombing-minnesota-courthouse/…
  21. True enough, Canadians pretend they care and yet if they held a rally to support Native rights and their historical mistreatment in Canada it would draw a small fraction of the support BLM drew in our major cities the last few days. Canada has become a strange place in the last few decades, we would rather borrow a narrative rather than create our own.....I honestly don't get it, but I guess that's what happens when you live next to the "Sun", it ******* blinds you.
  22. If you've got time to cook slow, nothing beats a kamado with wood chunk charcoal..
