Awesome video... I loved Heath getting in Carter's face all game, especially when he was "escorting" the pouting baby off the field... clearly Heath won that battle on the field and in his head...

OK.... I'm going with Derel Walker

hahaha... you'll never guess who I had in mind... back to the drawing board...

A Kavis Reed run team with no consequences?... I refuse to believe it!

If Nik Lewis writes a book... I'll read it!

I think you might be confusing a joke with an argument...

Isn't it nice that we're finally on the list of teams that doesn't have QB questions going into the off-season!

Oh well... Goldies weren't gonna sweep anyways... let's take game 2 tonight and come home with the split... gonna be tough for the visitors to win 2 of 3 in our park...

I went to the Goldeyes game Sunday afternoon...it was a fun game... kind of a crazy but thrilling end to the game... I'll describe how it went down in a little more detail for those interested, started at top of nine: Top 9: Goldeyes up 8-6... closing pitcher in the game... comes in a throws 2 heaters across the plate to go ahead 2-0 in the count and things are looking good... then pitch three, crack, gone... 8-7 Goldeyes... a few more hits and an error later and the salts have added 2 more and suddenly the fish are down 9-8 going into the bottom of nine... Bottom 9: First batter singles to get it started... second batter also a single to put runners at 1 and 2... third batter lays a nice bunt down the 3rd base line for the sacrifice to advance the runners to 2 and 3, one out.... next batter is intentionally walked to load the bases with one out... next batter - 4 straight balls... tying run walks across the plate... final batter of the day watches the first pitch, ball... then another... then another... finally the Saltdogs pull their pitcher for a different guy... what a situation to walk into: bottom of the ninth, tie game, bases loaded, one out, and down in the count 3 balls to zero strikes... his first pitch goes right into the dirt and the 3,500 people at Shaw Park go crazy as the Goldeyes win on a the classic walk-off walk... Was a fun game to be at... hoping to catch one of the games in the finals but it will likely have to be game 5 since I'll be out of town this weekend...

Just to clarify, I'm at 2 strikes and KBF is at 3? Also we will place all picks in this thread, not a new one each week, right? Just want to make sure I'm clear on the final rules here.

can you clarify this comment... you don't think the Bombers should be looking at him or you know/have heard they and other CFL teams are not interested at the moment?...

Jeff Sessions??

curious... there were a few posters seemingly trying to set records for posts in a week after the LDC... but are nowhere to be found after the Banjo Bowl... well, I guess this is a mystery that will never be solved... I don't disagree with this point... but I think the reason the call exists is b/c a DB could do it intentionally while passing it off as accidental...

Normally I wouldn't give two shits about a "loudest fans" contest... but watching the rider fans get all butt-hurt over something so meaningless is really quite entertaining...

it also shows the 50/50 at just over 6,000 when it was well over 100,000 by that point... it's just an image they threw on there (why not just use the real scoreboard?? who knows)

I take offense to this... what if panties are just more comfortable... I'm filing a human rights complaint...

This is exactly what I was thinking when I saw the replay... he's lucky it wasn't offensive PI... Also, just watching Jason Maas lose is goddamn mind on the sidelines... makes me so much happier that the only thing people have to complain about is O'Shea "smirks" too much... And then he goes on to say he "respects" the league's initiative for player safety... yet lambastes the league for taking Reilly out of the game after a head shot... the fact that it wasn't called is a different issue all together... If this Esks season goes completely off the rails I wouldn't be totally surprised to see Brock Sunderland move on from Maas and bring in his own coach...

I thought I read it here but maybe it was on twitter... someone said it's hard to imagine LaPo goes to Mtl if Joe Mack is still there...

Well you were pretty damn close...

Dave "the Nail-gun" Naylor is already speculating Stubler is part of the plan...

Also is there a new thread to talk about the Montreal firings?... I didn't see anything... Wonder if Thorpe is looking for "advisory" role in some capacity... I don't know, maybe somewhere in and around Winnipeg... EDIT: there is a thread... I missed it

"Despite never playing again, O’Shea has never formally signed retirement papers." I think we may have found our answer at MLB...

Yeah sure... like the Esks would ever trade an MOP winning QB to Toronto for nothing... Editors note: I'm pretty sure I've made this joke here before...

He also knows when to put in the 3rd string QB on a potentially Grey Cup winning play... Oh wait... no he doesn't b/c the answer is never!

I have to 100% disagree with the thread premise... Ottawa is a good football team and although they will be playing without Trevor Harris (likely) they will not be taken lightly... Edmonton is never an easy game... and Hamilton should be easily winnable, but they have been resembling an actual football team in the past two weeks... We could easily go 3-0 over this stretch... but could just as easily go 1-2... luckily I have full faith in Mike O that he will never let these guys get complacent...
