Nothing wrong with the classics.

Not every one that’s for sure. It’s important to have enough competitive balance that any team can turn it around and not be perpetually bad as hopeless, like several nba franchises. But what’s best is variety mixed with great stories. You want to have turn arounds and upstarts like the blue jays, but you also want to have them come up against the likes of the evil empire nyy. That, is compelling and entertaining to every one, even when it’s one sided. In 19 the cats were run away favorites, but we shocked them and the cfl to end a huge drought ushering forth an extraordinary stretch of success. Even the staunchest bomber haters say that was great viewing. You don’t get that with total parity. You need balance, but being too middle of the road is not good.

But our D has allowed 70 less points in the same number of games. Sacks and pressure is nice but doesn’t lead to points not being scored against.

He’s legit hurt tho.

While seemingly contradictory, redundancy and accuracy occurs in many contexts. You’re good.

In summary, BC sucks? Yes I do indeed need new material. 🙂

Last 4 weeks BC held CGY to 23 & 24, TOR to 22, and OTT to 27. Their big problem right now is the number of penalties they're taking.

Oh shocked

BC has an excellent offense and a pretty poor D.

The only QB's they've held under 25 points are Tre Ford, Montreal's 3rd and 4th stringers, Crum and Vernon Adams the past 3 weeks.

What do the D stats look like over the last month? That's when BC finally started to play decent D.

We don't get pressure though...

As a CFL fan I'd have zero interest in watching the Grey Cup champion vs some American UFL team. Nobody would care. The CFL could do American expansion like back in the day. The only benefit would be once the American teams fold , the stores would have rock bottom low prices on Winter jackets. I fondly remember seeing lots of cheap people wearing Gold Miners jackets around town.

Depth? Yes…. Scoring depth? Not so sure. We’re going to need it because we can’t rely on the top line to do everything. Hopefully Perfetti isn’t out too long and the other line combos can build chemistry quickly.

Save on foods score and win has launched and there are alot of soups that are part of the bonus entries....I think this is a great idea there have been certain soups I've been meaning to try

In this fantasy land all non-NFL/NCAA leagues are playing under a unified Canadian Rules football system The biggest problem logistically is when the teams are active I think. The way Soccer works is you quality for in-season champions tournaments the season before, so 2024-25 qualifies you for 2025-26 You could let the UFL/FAM-YOX season play out and have their champions immediately turn around and play the latest Grey Cup champions with the lead-in to the season (read: 1 preseason game or a scheduled week 1 bye) Or just go full carnie and find 9 non-Canadian teams, right after pre-season match every team up with an opponent, bill it as CFL vs the World and declare a winner based on aggregate.

Problem is free agency right. Like every team makes atleast 1 or 2 changes every off season. So unless that game is in December in Florida. Or January at the latest in the southern USA (Florida), it’s not really the champs is it. Cuz changes even happen with the champs. And who rules you playing under?

https://www.nhl.com/jets/news/roster-update-jets-announce-opening-day-roster-for-25-26-season Depth for sure. Looks and sounds like top 6 is Connor Scheifele Vilardi Nyquist Toews Chibrikov. bottom 6. I’m not sure but you got several guys to pick. Nino names lambert (why not try it) Koepke Barron Iafallo. Gus and Pearson scratched. Ford sent down (doesn’t require waivers)

If you bump up the UFL a month you would have that and FAM-YOX running until July I think... maybe the reigning Grey Cup champ sacrifices a preseason game and has a scheduled week 1 or 2 bye. It's messy but you can probably make it work
