haha skiddle bits, my boy oh boy, so long ago i cant remember, must have been grade 1, if that even but my teacher dated joey gregorish lol and our whole class got to appear on skiddlebits, halloween episodes. Was quite ridiculous but at the time, was pretty fun. Ahhh...so Mr Gregorash was a "player"! lol, he must have done something right, gonna be honest, the teacher was kind of a smokeshow. quite good looking actually.

Quick, someone retweet back to him that it's cheaper to live in Winnipeg rather then Vancouver, so he'll be making gobs more money just because of that. Seriously, what a stupid tweet. Since the Canadian dollar is lower then the US, we should be making more? Yeah, ok...but how can the CFL stay afloat if they're giving you all their money? Oooohhh, that's right, you don't care because you're almost retired so you just want to milk it for all it's worth before you're gone and don't give a rats ass about the rookies or all the future Football players who will be part of the league years down the road. I wouldn't cut the guy because of his tweets....it makes me want to smack him a little...a lot...but not cut him. gbill tweeted him back telling him that if the canadian dollar is an issue, he can go play in the arena league. I thought that was sufficient.

Has bilukidi shown even a tiny bit of interest in coming to the CFL at all, cuz i haven't seen or read one article or quote from him where he even mentions the CFL as an option. Sure, it would be nice to see him here but i'm highly doubting it happens.

Anyways, back to the topic somewhat. More specifically the tweets. i see nik lewis is at it again... Moron. Anyone see korey banks' tweets yesterday? talking about how the players need more money cuz the canadian dollar is low? is this the high character type of guy we want on our team? Between banks and moore, i'm not sure how i feel anymore about the direction of the team. I understand they are being union guys but.. the stupidity with a couple of their tweets really makes you question their character a wee bit. Maybe it's just me, but i'd love to see these 2 guys get cut. lol. ok, maybe that's going to the extreme but i think i might have a hard time cheering for 2 dbags. When the season does start, these 2 better step up.. the keyboard warrior stuff is really getting ridiculous, thought we got away from that when we let hef and jj go.

Yeah, that makes more sense now.

Didn't you also get CityTV on channel 13? I know I did. Oh yeah there was some channel that started up in the early 90's - broadcasting out of Portage la Prairie - is that the one you are thinking of? wasn't it mtn. buckley and beave to say play it again, we'll have a radical time today on MTN, while mom and dad sleep in. Heck i remember that channel and i've got a few years to go to hit 30 also.

You thought about it twice in one day? I hate to jiggle your mind again, but it's a 5 year deal good god, i need to pay more attention i guess.

This could be the end for a lot of guys actually. Every year, every darn year, several new players come in to every team... wally buono has said something about turning over half your roster most off seasons. The players are thinking way to long term when most of them wont even be around in 3 years. I dont get their mentality here. Do you think the players in 3 years are gonna care about these guys now? No, they are gonna take their jobs.

It does seem some people to have a preconceived hate on for a certain guy so some of their reports are going to be a bit biased i guess you can say but... they are there, you are not, i am not... gotta take there word for it, none of the people on here are experts, some pretend to be, but none really are.. yourself included brandon. For you to say that marve isn't fighting for the #2 spot is bullcrap... he certainly is. We all know willy is the starter but that backup spot is wide open. Why you pretending that hall actually proved anything last year? or that brohm is any better? because why? because you say so? Bet your butt that if marve shows better than hall and brohm then he is indeed the backup. This idea that he isn't fighting for the backup spot is a load of crap... they are all fighting for the backup spot, willy is the starter. That's all we know, the backup spot is certainly wide open for the taking.

hmm, just a question here about the wrestling stuff, were the wrestlers in character at the time? cuz, if they were.. then them getting upset is actually just part of the act. Especially if they were portraying heels.

apparently its only a 4 year tv deal? why did i think it was 8.

clippers gonna be sold for close to 2 billion... sterling got PAID.

Think it's time this one gets locked up eh? Turned totally into a political debate, i get that politics played a role in this whole topic but it has seemingly become all about politics now. And in no way related to the original topic, just some food for thought, don't care if it is locked or not, just think well, that last post there is definitely pushing a slippery slope here. I mean, i may not be a fan of these guys either but theres got to be a line here somewhere.

man oh man, the canadian players at it on twitter too, these guys are delushional little morons, if not for the ratio, most wouldn't be in the league. who the heck is tristan black and why does he think he matters? Bo Levi Mitchell just said the league wants a 5 year deal, but thinks in 3 years the tsn deal will be renegotiated, where are they getting this info from? how are they gonna renegoiate a tv deal in 3 years when the deal is for 8 isn't it? someone be spewing a whole lot of bs to these guys it seems.

saw the tweet too, suspect it means, at least that is what i interpreted as, is the league feels the strike vote is 50/50 amongst players. 50 percent want too strike, 50 percent do not. durant tho? as in darian? i'd suspect the qb's are in the "not wanting to strike" camp. See, this is what happens in a league where careers arent long, these guys no they only have so much time... it boggles my mind that they are even thinking about striking when in reality, that could be the end of many of their careers.

i really don't understand why the PA refuses to let the players vote on the latest proposal. Let them vote, if they are as united as they believe they are, there should be no issues there.

Lots of over reaction here it seems though, i mean just cuz they broke off talks doesnt mean the season will be cancelled. Let's all back away from the ledge a bit here. There is still time and as of right now, the players will be reporting to camp.. to me that says one of 2 things.. 1. the votes they have received, well probably a lot more no's than the PA expected or 2. they are closer than they are leading us to believe.

These threads shouldn't even exist cuz nobody is gonna change anybodies mind about anything on a message board. The fact that this has 4 pages now is amazing when basically its the same people repeating the same stuff over and over again. Oh and btw, just cuz a guy doesnt like gay people, it doesn't mean he's wrong.. it just means his opinion is different. I'm not a fan of people who try to tell me what i think is wrong.. so i can understand where brandon is coming from a bit here.. TUP: you seem to have it in your heard that anyone who disagrees with you is wrong, that is incorrect, all it means is they disagree with you and here in north america, that is allowed. we are all allowed to have different opinions on all these matters. I dont care if someone doesn't like gay people, who cares really. I dont even care if someone doesn't think redskin is a racist name even though the dictionary definition mentions that it is indeed racist, Nobody is changing anybodies opinions. Whats that saying that 17to85 uses? opinions are like assholes? You bet they are.

quite a bit of those idiots on twitter recently it seems, i've yet to come across one that actually knows what they are talking about though. Between this stuff and guys on twitter saying i speak for all fans when i say we are 100 percent behind the players. It makes you wonder if these guys are actually paying attention.

I think optics plays a big role here, lets think about the non hardcore fans who dont post on message boards or dont go on twitter and just basically go by what the papers tell them, if they even care to read those articles. A lockout means, the owners are the bad guys cuz they are locking the players out.. However a strike means the players are the bad guys and the fans will then tend to probably sway their opions (the non hardcore fan, the casual fan, the non message board posting fan, the majority of fans really) towards the side of the owners. If the owners lock them out, the fans opinion probably sways towards the players a bit more.. darn greedy owners locking out the players... but if the players strike... darn greedy players. Nobody wants to lockout the players and i highly doubt the players even want to strike, using striking as a potential threat, well that's not good either is it? I wonder how the players would feel about a strike, screw flory hage and the rest, they arent active players are they? nope they are retired, they really lose nothing. It's the guys who actually arent retired who will lose the most. What will scott flory lose?

smh at that last response for sure. Good god man.

These players need to keep their mouths shut right now... receivers are a dime a dozen, nick moore needs to understand he is very very replaceable. Who the heck was nick moore 3 years ago?

I'm not a big Nick Moore fan and stuff like this is why. He is one of those guys that I'll cheer for on the field but I don't have much use for off of it. It's like he's been diagnosed with Jovon Johnson Syndrome. Couldn't have said it any better. Seems like another keyboard warrior. so not exactly the high character type of player that the team seems to want or need? That can't be good.

ha, they are offering vets 5000$ if they are on the week 1 roster... Let the players vote, what is the PA worried about? they might accept it?
