rebusrankin Posted January 12, 2023 Report Posted January 12, 2023 If he can get $440,000 us or more, he should go to the NFL. More $ and at worst he can come back here and play a long time.

I have gone back over every Naylor tweet and retweet since August and there is no Naylor tweet that even remotely says anything in regard to that. I will ask you to provide a link because I think, quite frankly, you are lying. Prove me wrong. This, and the fact that 2 weeks ago you told the forum that you don't have twitter leads me to believe this. I call BS, and I think you are just being desperate right now, and it's kind of sad really. I also am a little bit POed that you encouraged me to try and find a tweet that doesn't exist. LINK...or I will just continue to ignore anything you say as a desperate attempt to move the goal posts because you dug in your heels when you were clearly wrong. Hey if you can find it, I'll be man enough to apologize. Edited January 12, 2023 by GCn20
Noeller Posted January 12, 2023 Author Report Posted January 12, 2023 the really funny/interesting thing in that barrage of Rourke tweets I posted last night, is the Lions fan who believes that, for the good of the league, the league should allow (even using their own coffers) for Rourke to be paid whatever it takes to top the NFL offers. Because the league apparently needs him so badly, we should just ignore all caps and just pay him whatever to stay in BC. Get ******. I'm ready to see the Leos back down at the bottom of the barrel again next year with Edmonton and Sask... rebusrankin and bigg jay 2

According to Lalji the BC LIons have offered him 600k this year although I suspect TBurg will dispute that. That's a nice consolation prize. However, let's be real...the NFL is the NFL...it's what every young American QB dreams about and it is the holy grail of football. Rourke has a TON of time to take his shot down there and not leave any what ifs on the table, and still come back here and have a long and successful career if things don't work out in the NFL. The only way to play in the NFL is to sign in the NFL, and Rourke would be a fool at his age not to do so. When he does...I doubt he ever comes back. Of course Lawler is open to a return to the Elks, especially if they give him 300k again. I am positive he would be open to that. I agree with you on this one... some of the CFL diehards will hate to admit it... but this is not about opportunity for Rourke... the opportunity will be whatever team offers him the best contract... he'll take it... Also, what's with all those stupid hashtags in the Farhan tweets... who the hell is EverythingBlue and OnePride?... teams have names for a reason...

I hope they do give him 700k or some thing crazy. Good luck putting that roster back together and just maintaining the same level of competitiveness then. 1 hour ago, Noeller said: Literally nobody wants to be with that **** franchise...

Noeller Posted January 13, 2023 Author Report Posted January 13, 2023 Even the 600k they claim they're ready to give Rourke seems insane to me. How can you build a team around that??
