Stokes was good but as each generation is better than the last, I'm not sure anyone has been as good as Grant. Yeah i'd say Stokes was Grant level, but we havent had many other great ones over the years. Edited May 25 by Bubba Zanetti Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stokes was on grants level in terms of explosive gains, but no where near his consistent ability to gain yards, especially the tough hard yards. Stokes was a much better offensive player though. 2500 rec yards 10 TDS. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedFlex27 Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 Poobah randy Ambrosie sends out a tweet today saying he hopes fans enjoy Super Saturday & no TSN. Yeah, we can stream the games but still what a joke. I saw some photos of people taking pictures of the crowd at McMahon today & it's 1982-3 Montreal Alouettes at Olympic Stadium bad. Just before they folded. Between 8-10,000, I bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue204 Posted May 26 Report Share Posted May 26 Anyone see Fajardo throw up two complete ducks that his WR made great plays on? His deep ball is rough. One should have never been thrown and the other should have been a walk in touchdown. Grant after being 2 or 3 steps ahead of coverage had to stop and come back for the ball before over powering a couple absurd tackle attempts.

Noeller Posted May 26 Report Share Posted May 26 Riders barely won with the LOLks in their usual form. MBT was a hot mess which was fun to watch.

We will have less than 20k at our pre season game. Guaranteed. Announced more but in the stadium will be way less. It’s just pre season.

Goalie Posted May 26 Report Share Posted May 26 (edited) Also the games aren’t on tsn probably because tsn like 75 percent of the cfl fans, don’t care about pre season. And for the most part it’s really really bad awful boring football. Like xfl season 1 Vince McMahon era bad but they had gimmicks and fun camera angles. I’d bet if lawler put he hate me on the back, ppl would tune in Edited May 26 by Goalie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we make no money on streaming anyway. We say this all the time but TSN does nothing to grow the game in Canada. Neither does the CFL. The leagues sits on it's boney, skinny ass picking it's nose. Meanwhile, you'd think that TSN would try to make 4 games a big deal in the pre season. Do something... Anything.

They got a long way to go. TSN obviously is an issue. You have 4 fn channels. Does women’s hockey need to be on all of them.

SpeedFlex27 Posted May 27 Report Share Posted May 27 I dunno. You could have a Super Saturday the 2nd week of the pre season. Make a big deal of it. Maybe televise 2 or 3 games to get fans excited about the season upcoming. Really make a big deal of it. But it's the CFL, Randy Ambrosie & TSN. It just makes too much sense so it'll never happen.
