  1. I also noticed that... I imagined a few heads exploding here... but I give Montreal credit... they're decisive and they don't drag anything out... their coaching staff is already complete and they can start to focus on 2016 already...
  2. It was plus 10 2 days ago here, today there's snow on the ground. and EC says +10 for Friday now, too....******' El Nino.... Trusting Environment Canada 4 days in advance...
  3. I want you to be wrong... but unfortunately, I fear this scenario will be exactly correct...
  4. 75% of Ottawa's roster is castoffs, the trick is signing the right ones. In their defense... that's kind of the definition of how to build an expansion team...
  5. I hope more guys like Leggett get a ticket into town... we need more guys like Leggett, Bass and Westerman on this team... also Bruce Johnson was one of the few players who played like he gives a **** against Tor...
  6. It's almost 11:30 now... where is the mass exodus!!!
  7. Wait till MOS brings him back next yearWouldnt it technically be up to Walters to bring back a player??No I would think it is up to the coach who he wants back.You think someone tells Huffer who should play for him? Bad example... Hufnagel is also the GM...
  8. FWIW Durant had 12 catches for 170 yards and 3 TDs this year... Richards 1 catch for 12 yards... which is good for another Winnipeg FIRST DOWN (assuming it wasn't first and 15 or something)... and as far as I can tell Jake Harty did literally nothing this year... Ott lists him on their active roster and depth chart but he accumulated no stats... I guess he was a healthy scratch all year?
  9. A convert returned by the defense in Canadian football is always worth 2 points.To the OP, the returner isn't conceding s point on a PAT. If they really cared about what you are talking about on FG's they'd adopt the Football Canada rule of putting the ball on the 20 if the ball is returned out of the end zone. I didn't realize that was a rule until I saw it in play in the Bisons/UBC game on Saturday... if you saw the score, I didn't watch too much in the second half...
  10. I was kind of hoping the Guelph position with Walters was true... and it would be announced any day now... I think the roster is better off now than it was 2 years ago... we just need the right people to take it to the next step...
  11. You'll never see Mike Kelly here as a coach again... the PR alone would be a nightmare... but the said reality is he was one of the better coaches we've had here since Dave Ritchie...
  12. exactly the problem with this poll...
  13. I disagree... hopefully we've seen the last of this sophomore slump... and see him back to form next year... definitely need to be at TC... I would bring him back to camp, especially considering he'll be much cheaper than what we would have been offering him a year ago. You don't give up on a young Canadian kicker that easily... bring him to camp (with competition) and make him earn the job... if he struggles early then it may be time to cut him loose...

  15. My thoughts exactly. Willy doesn't hurt his knee that game, it's only a matter of time before he's hurt during another game. Thankfully he didn't come back this season and let MB have another chance at ruining his career. I hope come Monday, MB is no longer apart of this team. I really hope so too... the worst thing the team can do right now is drag it on like they did with Etch...
  16. There's an article in the Sun saying that 100 is the goal...
  17. The Bombers vaguely tweeted that he was being honoured at half time... my first reaction was "WTF, for what?!?".... then I realized it's Toronto honouring him for his playing days... well deserved...
  18. If he gets there early I'd like to see him taken out... I'd also like to see Waggoner at MLB and/or safety...
  19. Bolded are my predictions... green is the predicted winner... keep in mind, I know nothing... like Jon Snow Justifications: Burris - self-explanatory McCoil - best player on the best D in the league Sinopoli - wins over Westerman cuz offense always wins over defense Wilson - played multiple positions on the line, best line in the league despite several injuries Logan - best numbers Hazelton - seemed to be a game breaker all season... mostly just a guess
  20. so incredibly untrue, I don't even know where to begin.... just cuz someone doesn't walk up to you and slap you in the face, doesn't mean they don't exist... But this is pretty much the point, not everyone wants to do the legwork to find music and rock as a genre that gets lots of airplay in the popular mediums? Not much. *media But yes, New Rock radio sucks.....and it's Rock-ness is questionable, at best. Actually medium is the right word.... FM radio, TV and satellite streaming are 3 different mediums for music...
  21. The only way Willy doesn't get hurt... is in an entirely different offensive system... I think we would be a much better team with a different offense....
  22. Neufeld was no worse than anyone else we started at RT... I think he is a lot better at RT than anywhere interior...
  23. so incredibly untrue, I don't even know where to begin.... just cuz someone doesn't walk up to you and slap you in the face, doesn't mean they don't exist... But this is pretty much the point, not everyone wants to do the legwork to find music and rock as a genre that gets lots of airplay in the popular mediums? Not much. I completely agree... like I mentioned in another post... the YouTube wormhole can be a great thing for finding new music... find a few bands you like and it will flow from there....
  24. Rock died sometime in the late 80's and early 90's. There were a few grunge bands that managed to keep rock and roll alive somewhat...but sadly they too were overtaken by the autotuned/computer super-produced music we have had ever since. Why do 50000 people show up for an AC/DC concert? Because even though there music is as old as the hills they have the actual musical ability to play a live show successfully. Unfortunately, not many bands do anymore without lip-synching and computer generated autocorrection of their musical misteps. wrong on so many levels... people who think "rock is dead" is a major pet peeve of mine... I agree the medium for rock music is limited... if you want to find good music, you have to put a little effort in... here's a good tip... trust what your favourite artists from the 60s and 70s are saying/doing... for example, one of the main reasons I went to AC/DC is b/c Vintage Trouble is one of my favourite bands... one of the major reasons I'm going to Black Sabbath (along with the fact that they are awesome) is that the Rival Sons are one of my favourite bands... find a band you like and let the YouTube wormhole take you from there!
