Fletcher would be a natural for the Stamps offense.

Lapo and Nielsen are so refreshing. Nielsen could tone his high school girl shriek down a bit but other than that they make a good duo.

I drove by Freddies and saw the drive thru with 20 cars deep. Winnipeg people sure like mediocre fast food chains. Then again for dinner I was dragged to Olive Garden and it was jam packed and the pasta that I had was only a minor notch above a microwave dinner. It always blows my mind on why the location on Reenders is always so busy when the food is very expensive and mediocre. Every dish is near 30 dollars and very subpar.

Big time And sure nice not hearing them stupid horns!

Lapo gives twice what Suitor offers.

In another thread somebody has said the first 2 games may as well be preseason games and that's not wrong from what we've seen so far.

Who tf is getting these teams ready? 2 games start with the wrong amount of players on the field.

Who?

Theres something about that kid though.....I think he'll be legit. See how the Argos D does after all that turn over.

Since I won’t watch the panel, has there been any mention of Matty…or is he going to be the elephant in the room all season.

I don't think he knows anything about the CFL. I suppose that could be entertaining but also could be a real waste of time for actual fans of the Canadian game. What happens to BC during the game if Rourke gets injured? They are counting him as a Canadian starter. My belief is that if he went out due to injury they'd have to replace an American receiver with a Canadian receiver/FB or bench an American OL for the Canadian 6th OL (also starting 4 American OL).

And who's their back up? MBT right? That's not a bad situation.

just let me know who u are ....lo....u will be safe

I'm more curious in MTL effed up handing the reigns over to a largely unproven guy at QB

no **** sherlock....tell me something I dont know....but 22 to 19 is hardly a nucleus.....I stand by what I said tho...He favouts an inferior Canadian a lot when he could play a better american and not effect ratio 2ND yr and beyond Americans can pass on the same knowledge....and so can coaches and in all reality...the really good Canadians are for most part U.S highschool prep guys, and NCAA trained collegiately, so this knowledge transfer is kind of a mute point Good football players..athletically and amateur trained are just good players...fan of stability too has it's range and limits....hasnt panned out to well last 3 yrs when it mattered.....Argo's bring in new guys yearly...and in the time Osh has been HC here have won more cups than us...and handed our ass to us in last with all our "stability" maybe in the 80's and 90's....

He's a nice system QB with Dinwiddie.

back to back to back actually

So many forfeits in AAAA league last year. The tiering model is so broken. Forced every AAAA school up into top league because everyone was trying to avoid being in same league with OP, St Paul's, Dakota. Nobody wants to lose by 70. It was a lot better when the big schools didn't have JV teams but a top division team and a lower division team instead. In that era when I played and then coached, never heard of a forfeit. Now it's like 6 a season because teams literally get destroyed playing these monster South Winnipeg programs.

I'll take Argos suck for 200 Alex. Oh and thanks for the reminder Debbie. 🙂

I'm just telling you what sport executives, professional athletes say on a day to day basis, sport is business.

Heads Up: He's not. We just allowed shitty QBs to beat us in back to back years. Woof.

Domination.

It's different, in most businesses the employee lives with their family, in professional sports the players often live far away from their family and support networks. Team full of young transient single dudes is going to behave much differently than a well established team loaded with married guys that already have kids.

Absolutely they do. Everyone in the city with stable coaches does. Rule is kids are locked in where they go to school for Grade 10 unless they move residence to a different catchment. Otherwise if they change schools, have to sit out a year/go through an appeal process that rarely rules in favour of the athlete before they can play any sport at the new school. Those top 3 Winnipeg schools in LRSD and PTSD (Dakota, OP, Vincent Massey) have more kids outside of catchment than inside on their football team. By a lot. Kids at schools without football can't transfer out after the start of their Grade 10 year either to play football at a new school. Wade Miller is really pushing more of a co-op model to allow more schools to participate...which in MHSAA is only allowed for very small schools...and dilute the pool of players for Dakota, OP, Vincent Massey. WHSFL makes it's own rules through Winnipeg School Division so it is possible to do something different than MHSAA would say for other sports. Manitoba is very weird in how our high school sports are structured and really discourage any hope of participating in a sport that doesn't exist at your school.....especially when basically all our team sports run the top programs through high schools, and outside of the city high schools are really the only way you can do anything but hockey. All the rules slow down recruiting, but also encourage kids to go to the super schools for their sport rather than stay and build competitive programs in their area of the city. Most other provinces have spring club leagues that take on that role and let kids play at closest available school to their home.
