  1. Crum is following a simple playbook, a smart DC will disguise coverage and try to confuse him, much like Bombers did to Rourke last season. I don't know if the Ti-Cats are capable enough to pull it off, but easy enough to spy him and shut down his running as Judge did last week.
  2. I think the last time I saw O'Connor on TV she had fully converted to islam, wore a full head scarf and had changed her name to Shuhada Sadaqat, rejecting the patriarchal slave name her Irish parents had burdened her with. She rejected her Catholic upbringing violently, yet didn't have the strength or the wisdom to find her way without fully embracing another religion. I don't care for her pop oriented work at all, but one of my favourite albums of all time is her interpretation of Irish folk songs on the album Sean-Nós Nua, and I ain't even Irish.
  3. IMO Kelly is challenging Collaros as the best QB in the league this season, he has an advantage in that he can also use his legs to gain yards when needed, something Zach is no longer encouraged to do, for good reason.
  4. Best running game of the year so far was in Mtl., rain seems to force them to use all of their running weapons more effectively. Hopefully they start to rely on Bailey, McCrae, Demski and even Augustine a little bit more to diversify their running attack and take some focus off of Brady.
  5. How many D-line starters are they down this week? Any other significant injuries right now?
  6. That's not how it's trending right now, from all appearances they've already peaked and are on their way down. If we see a strong renewal of personnel next season that may change, but O'Shea has decided to ride players past their peak and this season it appears they've already been surpassed by 2 teams in terms of performance and have fallen off their high mark. If the Bombers want to remain on top another 2 years O'Shea needs to embrace the reset function as enthusiastically as Wally ever did.
  7. The Argos have certainly built an impressive roster over the last few years, who is the real architect, Pinball, Dinwiddie or John Murphy?
  8. I have zero hope any real action will be taken, take a story as serious as the one posted below, then go read the hundreds of disparaging comments left by idiots in denial. People who are willing to make the necessary changes for the betterment of the eco-system and life on earth are surrounded by selfish fucktards who aren't. https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/heat-round-up-1.6918191 Waters off the coast of Florida as hot as a hot tub.
  9. Emphasises just how bad Twitter is for communicating ideas of this magnitude. It is a silly medium.
  10. Beautiful voice, troubled soul.
  11. I don't remember, was McGuire the actual #2 or was it Streveler?
  12. I seem to recall the early transition to Kona at Center last season after Couture was injured did not go super smoothly and reflected badly on Neufeld in particular, there was an increase in O-line breakdowns and Zach paid the price in a number of games. Comparing this year to last may not give a clear picture of the worsening protection over time we suspect has happened. DT may have to go back to 2021 stats. to get a better comparison of deteriorating protection.
  13. Ti-Cats basically gave Davis to the Stamps, sixth-round pick in the 2024 CFL Draft. Vaughters may be out for the season so the Stamps had a big hole to fill. Semi-pleased Walters isn't interested in old has-beens.
  14. Rewatch the 2nd down play in OT against Ottawa, critical breakdown between Kona and Neufeld led to Zach getting sacked and put the game on the line.
  15. People might not want to acknowledge the level of difficulty cutting a 3 in 1 Natl. kicker caused the team in roster management, there may be measurable benefits down the road, but the cost of replacing him and the lost ratio flexibility he allowed has become a real inconvenience. As much as I wasn't Leggs biggest fan, I don't think it's been worth the tradeoff.
  16. Yep, Zach leans towards gunslinger so he gets hit more often than Nichols, who was content to pick up first downs until they reached the 45. Even before 2019 Nichols was boasting of "not touched" games and they had a number of them.
  17. Judge spying Crum seemed to keep him contained in the second half, that's a good start.
  18. I don't think Jones let Willy get away, he left Sask. for the NFL and O'Day fumbled the handoff.
  19. Prukop performed very well for most of last season, yet nobody was thrilled when he initially signed and he's not going to sell any additional tickets. Piggy lifted people out of their seats the first time he touched the ball, that much is frickin' obvious. Colonel Tom wasn't no dummy.
  20. Walters announced during the off-season the 3rd QB would not be competing with Brown for the 2nd position but would be given a "Strev. like package" to work with. 7 games gone and we've seen none of that package yet, which could be helpful diversifying the offence.
  21. Not that O'Shea would ever answer that question with anything less obscure.
  22. Microplastics are an example of a relatively new technology that needs to be banned immediately before it causes irreparable harm.
  23. He probably has a better chance of catching on as a 3rd stringer than MBT.
  24. I hoped they would go after Boteng last off-season but he just announced his retirement. Sounds like several teams were still interested in him. https://3downnation.com/2023/07/20/canadian-de-kwaku-boateng-retires-from-cfl-despite-interest-from-teams/
