Funny, /not funny/ not CFL but, 

Giant German guy, not a football player zgot into the Superbowl media area, and got interviewed quite a few times by people thinking he was a Patriot or Eagle.  including a by a guy from  "Homeland Security"

 

funny but also disturbing that they got in so easily.

But when u got nothing inside kinda negates it

Also Hughes being 35 this year may start to show his age

Started to show it last year, as injuries held him out a month.... I personally think he's gonna decline rapidly now...

Yeah Huff is no fool. He wasn't an SMS casualty by any means...they have no reason to cut salaries  at moment.

 

It was a salary cap move, Especially trading Hughes for 2 fourth round picks in the next 2 CFL Drafts. Here are two quotes from yesterday's Calgary Herald. The first is Stamps GM John Hufnagel & the second from Charleston Hughes:

 

"It was a tough day at the office - no question about it.  Charleston has been a soldier for 10 years.  He's a big part of our winning ways but it's the salary cap era that we're in & I have depth at the defensive end position. A very difficult decision & we just tried to make the right choice.  What's the right choice? What's the wrong choice? We couldn't afford as many as we had & one had to go. It could have been one of the other two."

 

"I knew that there were going to be decisions that were going to have to be made. That was a stress the whole year about  cap & stuff.  But based on how I play & what I bring to the table, I didn't think I was going to be that player to be traded."

Colling/Wiggan, Singleton, Adeleke/Thibault, Durant/Brescacin and 3 OL

I'm not sure they don't go after Westerman...  although I think EDM will make a hard push for him too

Anyone ever figure out what issue he had last year? Injury wise?

Rumoured to be $190K base. Hughes must be somewhere close to that amount, so ~$350K is a lot of cash for two INT DEs.

Hughes has been silent about suiting up for the Riders so far, I pray he's seriously contemplating retirement.

I do not want any part of Dropsies Bowman. Lapo and Walters know all too well about that guy....I think they'll stay away.

Hearing there were negotiations between the #Eskimos and Bowman to restructure his contract. Would have been quite the cut from 265K. Team made attempts to trade Bowman but his salary was a road block for other teams. #CFL
