I think the Billy Madison quote perfectly sums up this debate...

If a player's salary goes up due to his play (for example that could happen to Grigsby) does he remain at the lower salary if you keep him on your roster week-to-week? Anyone know? Do salaries even change in this league? Drew Willy is a steal at 200K vs Ray and Durant who are both 300K

I'm gonna go a little off the board here... not sure if anyone else picked him Anthony Coombs

I don't think it's just you.... yes he's always been known as "Thick Nick" but this year he just looks plain fat and slow.... not sure he ever really got into "shape" after the injury... If you take into account their relative size, a guy like Dan Knapp is in significantly better shape than Nik Lewis Dan Knapp looks real athletic for an OL... Yeah, that's the point... an o-lineman should never look/be more fit/athletic than a receiver...

No, he fell down the stairs. What a stupid comment. Oh oh...I want to do one too... uhh....ok I got it...No, he chewed on bubble gum and blew a bubble, and when the bubble popped, it snapped his head back causing him to fall. Luckily someone caught him and he was ok. But then he slipped on a banana peel and was heading straight for a tree, but managed to put out his hands and stop himself from ramming into it. Afterwards, he was going for a jog and was checking out some chicks butt and when he turned his head there was a tree branch and he ALMOST hit his head but managed to duck in time. Later that day he nicked himself shaving which caused a concussion. I mean, honestly Nate...some of the things you say are RIDICULOUS!!! I knew your story was fiction when I read that line.... we all know Nik Lewis doesn't do any running on his spare time You mean Jon Cornish? yes, sorry... I forgot we were talking about Cornish (it's not like the thread is called "Nik Lewis Out With Concussion").... Your story is more believable now...

En englais, sil vous plait.... Now I need to copy and paste your post and email it to my gf so she can translate it for me.... that's a lot of work for me

Too bad... in my one experience with him at the Bombers store I was treated to some of the best customer service I've ever had.... any idea where he's going?

I find it's more and more obvious when broadcasters are having legitimate debates vs canned arguments.... you can tell when someone is playing devil's advocate just for the sake of entertainment... boring

offensively Montreal will need to beat us with Brandon Whitaker.... I think it'll be a close game... Winnipeg 21 Montreal 13

Eskimos 24 Redblacks 21 Toronto 35 Calgary 28 Saskie 31 BC 14 I'm hoping to catch some of the Ott/Edm game... I didn't really get a good look at the new Redblacks last week cuz I was watching the game with Blue and Gold goggles on

If Cotton looks good at RB and returning I wonder how much longer Aaron Woods and Will Ford stick around...

I like O-line depth...

This was a good article... I'm not ready to crown this a complete change yet, still 16 games to play... but I very much like the trajectory this is heading...

Nothing against Bob Young... made his millions legitimately.... Hamilton Tiger Cats might not exist without him...

I think this is the most optimistic I've ever seen you... based on conversations in the OB days.... then again, those were dark days... Funny that you mention Peyton Manning.... I watched about a minute of the highlight video... seems he throws a lot of "ducks".... but a lot of people commented on how Peyton threw "ducks" last year... that turned out ok for him...

Do you mean from one to another to another? Hahah yeah... that's what I meant... all five of them together!

You can tell last year and reputation/expectation is still very much a consideration in the power rankings.... they should start to be more accurate after 4-5 weeks.... kinda scary how similar Hamilton's 2013 end/2014 beginning of the season is to Winnipeg 2011 end/2012 beginning... right down to the stadium delays!

I like Jim Toth... not cuz he has any legitimate knowledge of sports.... but he's just entertaining to listen to.... Kinda like Nate said, clowns are fun!

Seems like any lineman out of Calgary or Laval recently have become good CFL players.... interesting list to follow... we'll see who shakes out as a legit NFL prospect and who is left for the CFL after this year...

While I agree this is not a mind blowing feat... I think about Max Hall and Buck Pierce and Joey Elliot and Justin Goltz and Alex Brink..... could any of these men perform that throw??

I was torn on this one when I first saw it.... I definitely think Odell did a good job to lower his shoulder and try to avoid head contact... IMO the head contact was incidental.... but since Collaros was hurt on the play I'm not surprised there was a fine...

this is turning into a real disaster for Hamilton... sure it was a dump, but at least we had a 29,500 seat back up stadium ready to go when ours was delayed... not to mentiom this is supposed to be on ESPN... yikes... the CFL absolutely needs to flex this game out... showing a bad CIS stadium to unaware American fans is gonna make the CFL look like a mickey mouse organization...

I kinda hope the Als win... I don't want them too hungry next week
