rebusrankin Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 I for one am happy to see Fogg get a pick on his birthday.
JuranBoldenRules Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 The Halifax expansion is a bad idea for many reasons, but hearing the ownership group talking about playing in 2021 and "playing a couple seasons" in Moncton while a stadium is built in Nova Scotia is complete lunacy. They'll be bankrupt before they play a game in their stadium. Based on the crowds showing to these games they are likely to lose $10-15 million a season on operations in Moncton, plus the initial costs of starting up. There's truly no benefit to the league. Is TSN going to cough up a bunch of money because there's now a team in the coveted Atlantic TV market of half a million people? wbbfan, TBURGESS, rebusrankin and 1 other 2 2
FrostyWinnipeg Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 Get used to playing in that time zone Toronto. blue_gold_84 1
wbbfan Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 Mbt looking really good throwing through tight windows and moving the pocket.

I believe they also missed 3 separate dates to present their proposals to the Halifax city council as well. Additionally, its a market that isn't growing, with governments that have debt issues so severe that they have to cut essential services. Bigblue204 and wbbfan 2

There are weekends when there is not an ER open on Cape Breton to facilitate the doctor having a couple days off. They can't justify giving a dollar to a stadium. Bigblue204 and wbbfan 2
Pete Catan's Ghost Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 Black asked member of ownership group whether he had ever called a CFL game. Prospective owner said no. Rod responded "neither have we". What a bizarrely wonderful response. Eternal optimist and blue_gold_84 2

Yeah I'm all for a team in eastern Canada, I just dont see how it's a viable option. Not long term anyways. Tracker, wbbfan and rebusrankin 1 2
bustamente Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 Well I hope everyone is relieved that Black had chowder today.
JuranBoldenRules Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 Rod Black just literally read Geno Lewis' dad's Wikipedia page but in a way that "he watched him play at Southern Alabama." Junie Lewis look it up! rebusrankin 1
Super Duper Negatron Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 I had the sound off. Did they seriously just challenge no yards. Bigblue204 1

Pete Catan's Ghost Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 I advocate for the “change of scenery” option. BC and Toronto should trade coaches. Irony is: no one in either city would notice. wbbfan and Tracker 2
HardCoreBlue Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 Derel Walker would look good in Blue and Gold. wbbfan, blue_gold_84 and MOBomberFan 1 2
Mark H. Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 Outstanding kick out blocks on the J. Johnson TD.
Rod Black Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 Began watching at the triple reverse touchdown play by the Als. Heck, this is pure entertainment since then!
JuranBoldenRules Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 MBT has no pocket awareness. Just awful.
Fatty Liver Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 Good game so far, surprised the Argos didn't take the easy F.G. with 1:30 left to play. wbbfan 1

JuranBoldenRules Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 MBT throws a slant behind Edwards, Als win.
Rod Black Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 Fans having a great time! Boatmen sink in the Atlantic. Mr Dee and BigBlueFanatic 2
Tracker Posted August 25, 2019 Report Posted August 25, 2019 I've been trying to be interested but cannot. Glad for Khari.
