Yeah that would be the best use of assets..having both Logan and Mitchell back for KR too Be nice to swap Bailey for Weitz too...we know what Weitz offers...not much...havnt even noticed him on teams, so time to see what Bailey has to offer. Why we don't see what guys have in game reps is baffling If we go 3 nationals too be nice to see one of Person or J.Jones as well

Yeah that’d be a pretty big down grade. Vaval needs to grow make a few better decisions and be more secure. But that’s typical of rookie krs. Hes worth developing and teaching. especially since he looks like a legit db. Vaval and schoen for Logan and Mitchell would be well worth while though.

Case had 1 catch for 5 yards in three games last year. Believe he didn't play this past pre season. Had 1 catch for 4 yards last pre season. Seriously why is he still around? Logan as another offensive weapon and the returner would be interesting. Hopefully another defender in to help the Dline too.

Well Case is a pointless returner too...so hopefully not even tho Vaval has kinda petered out a bit...but he still has that break one threat...case...nope

Maybe they are both coming on and Vaval is coming off.

Yeah not sure why people saying he not or can't play slot...hes done it...plus he is a pro so should be able to anyway...we also use our guys in all the spots as well...that's just a nonesense excuse

My 2 cents... The league got bogged down in logistics for Calgary and completely forgot about the fans. How they handled this was completely ridiculous. They've significant shortened how long they will delay games for thunderstorms, but an air quality delay can be indefinite? Policy should be the call is made based on the numbers 1 hour before the game. At the latest. 1.5-2 hours would be more reasonable. If they want, have the decision made in consultation with public health in the city or someone like that. The CFL can't seem to figure out their own parameters on what is safe or not, or whether it's Labour Day and we can't cancel or not. Take the decision out of their/TSN's hands then. Need to have some respect for the health, safety and time of the customers.

The older I get I find my eyesight is getting better handling the dark. Or it could just be i know how many steps and the obstacles on the way to the bathroom in the middle of the night.

If it's yellow let it mellow if it's brown flush it down

The policies the league has for this are pretty easy to find and make the protocols explicitly clear. If AQHI+ as deemed by Environment Canada (you can actually see these values in pretty much all stadiums via the Purple Air map) is 8 or above, players aren't allowed on the field. The policies also state that there will attempt to make things work for up to 3 hours (I think they let it go to 4 in this case). Regina was also under a special air quality warning at the time. Should the league have been more proactive in maybe rescheduling based on the forecast? Maybe, but they were hoping that winds would come and mitigate the issue. Should they have left everyone sit in the stands without much updates within the stadium? Probably not, but in an open air stadium what else can you really do. Everyone has their own risk profile and were expecting to be there for at least 3 hours anyways. And it is indeed a safety issue for the players more-so than the fans in the stands... it is an order of magnitude more dangerous doing wind sprints up and down the field in that kind of conditions than it is hanging out in the stands. The problem is with something like lightning, you know there is some timing involved and you can actually see it. Of course there are people that are going to dip as soon as the delay happens, and then you make the decision as time goes on as you see more or less lightning. With the smoke its just kind of... there and you can almost get acclimated to it but as soon as you hit fresh air its clear what was going on, but you have morons on Facebook and X going "hurr-durr back in my day I'd run marathons sucking back a pack of darts players these days are babies."

I was done after the **** overalls thingy with BLM last year.

I jut turned 70 last week. At my age just waking up is good news. Bonus that I remembered where the bathroom was thus preventing a nasty accident. Yes, I remembered to close the lid. Wait a minute, did I flush???

How refreshing it is having Laura Diakun as guest host in the absence of Kate Bierness? She's a pro who keeps the panel on task & guess what?? They actually can have an interesting football discussion with Diakun. Unlike Bierness, who is all over the place with her comments, jokes, wild laughter & skits. The panel just follows her lead & gets goofy. Bierness is not a host. She lacks the discipline that Diakun has, She seems perfectly suited to be the full time host of TSN football. I wish TSN would make a change.

I just listed the 9 starters. Three of those qbs have played 3 games. Two have better stats than Collaros. If you look at the others, we have no way of catching up because our passing numbrs are anemic as we have a shell of what we used to have for receivers. Yeah, Collaros ain't what he used to be but MOS & Walters made it worse. I don't care how much Lawler is making, he is worth every penny. Unless Schoen has an epiphany as a receiver & starts putting up 150 yards a game rceiving, he isn't. He looks like he's lost at least one& maybe two steps. I suffered the exact same knee injury Schoen did last year when I was 22. The injury was life changing. Even with rehab my knee was never the same. It was replaced in 2022.

I have stories as I was a claims adjuster for Kernaghan Adjusters. I flew & drove all over the north when I lived in Thompson working on insurance claims in 1989.. I think there were more fires that year surrounding the town than people knew. You really could see it from the air.

No, Ben Hatskin & Sonny Werblin, the owner of the New York Jets were business acqaintances & friends. When he secured a team in the Westrn canada Hockey League, he named the team the Jets in honour of Werblin's AFL team. When he later sold the Junior Jets, he bought into the WHA with a franchise in 1971 & called them the Jets as well. Again, to honour Werblin. Just an aside but in the 1950's my dad knew Ben Hatskin as well through business. Both men raced cars. My dad owned an Auto Body shop on Marion Street right beside the Norwood Hotel. It was there for 36 years from 1946-82. My father built a race car. Hatskin also owned a car as well & they raced against one another. Both my dad & Hatskin hired professional drivers to race their cars.

I kind of like the ring of giant dodgers… it’d be great for a basketball team. I believe officially it was a combination of honouring the rcaf, Winnipeg’s aviation history, and the ny jets.

Dillion Mitchell does and has played slot. below the very first highlight has him in the slot. You can find lots of similar in his high lights up here. Also WRs in the cfl motion and move depending on formation, package, and passing concepts. No one is solely a field or wr or boundary slot. This is mos roster management. If they actually played case in a game over any imp wr it would be completely absurd.

I've heard Mitchell doesn't play slot, dumb as a fence post if he doesn't seize whatever opportunity is given to him at this time, his job is on the line.

I'm fine with Vanterpool for Stan. Kelly back would be fantastic. Logan too. If Mitchell can't beat out Case then he needs to hit the bricks. Thing is Case had 1 catch for 5 yards in 3 games last year. Not trying to be an ahole but pretty sure any receiver you put in could do that. Take out Schoen and the D has to what cover 3 guys (Demski, Wheatfall and Clercius)

I thought it was due to the popularity of the New York Jets at that time due to Joe Namath.

Typical with us..Case...like really? Guy is as average as average is...and couldnt crack lineup last yr...and if he couldn't beat out Sterns this yr then insirting him for Schoen makes us the worst group in league in yrs... If Stan needs a rest then we gain a DA spot...tho we roster 4 ...3 of of whom only see work on teams I can just imagine what Osh rosters Nice to see Kelly back tho...and logan... Likely another case of "coaches preference " and no pun intended...

Thought the Jets were named in reference to the RCAF base in St. James?

Kody Case? WTF? Mitchell can't beat out that non entity?

Since Ben Hatskin was playing for the Bombers at that time if Vince Leah didn't exist, Benny probably have started the tradition of New York team names back in the 30's instead of waiting to name the hockey team "Jets" in 1967- we'd be the Winnipeg Blue Yankees or Winnipeg Giant Dodgers lol....
