Olumba and Lowes are moved to PR. 

Practice roster also appears as Add To - Free Agent in the cfl.ca transaction page. I know, it's confusing.

And so concludes the first and last time I try to decipher the transaction page. You guys just tell me what to be mad about from this point on.

What? You don't get that adding a guy to the suspended list actually means you have added them to the roster?

So obvious

Clear as mud.

...and we've got a Redhawk Randy appearance on the game day roster. Good for him...

[Geebrr]

Throw at Rose constantly.

He is the weak caribou.

Its really strange though that we went to him and perez after pulling mauro. He hasnt been cut, but some thing has to be up there. Maybe the dbs getting nicked a little bit as them spooked into wanting an extra DB. Too bad though mauro looked good on cover.

The first game against the elk we had the offense rolling towards a blow out with quick screen passes and timing routes. I wouldnt be surprised to see a little bit of that setting up a pump n go or similar deep threat.

That Elks team is actually not terrible on paper.... O-line and LB look weak, but mostly solid outside of that... why do they suck so much??

Ol and lb are pretty important positions in the cfl...

coaching and culture. 

[Geebrr]

Add in an overrated QB that is career mediocre and can't finish drives + an underperforming Dline.

[BigBlueFanatic]

Trevor Harris has always been Mr.June & July…

Season starting in August was automatic write off for that guy

I think at least part of it is that they have a very troubled locker room. Earlier in the year their Covid outbreak resulted in a game being postponed/rescheduled. At that time only 50% were vaccinated and if they hadn't been able to make up the game at the end of the season, all of the players would have lost that paycheck. This created a divide and plenty of bad feelings among Elks players.

As it is, the rescheduled Toronto game crowds their schedule which doesn't sit well with any of them.

The entire club is mesmerized by Wilder's flexing. It has ruined their season.

Yikes. That's a lot of key players that are questionable for Friday 😬

I think the only question is how bad are they gonna rape the elks?
