Because Elgersma is miles better than Wilson. Facts. What's the Twitter handle? Asking for a friend....

Kyle Busch's cause of death revealed: Busch passed away "after severe pneumonia progressed into sepsis, resulting in rapid and overwhelming associated complications." Why do I keep thinking what happened was similar to what happened to Jim Henson except *one google later* well that killed part of my theory

"It ain't show friends. It's show business."

She gave it to me pretty good. Calling the organization disrespectful and that there was no competition and it’s all BS. He can’t. He’s our property

Now that Rourke’s broken the glass veiling, we’ve seen Ford and Ermergerdsma. Things are moving.

Sounds like a lot of sour grapes....The proper thing for Wilson to do right now is quit the whining and approach the Als ...they might be able to use him...The CFL is a business and sometimes tough business decisions hurt ...

That's a pretty spare list of good quarterbacks, and finding a backup who has the potential to grow into a starter is equally difficult. The mortality rate among QBs who come to the CFL and do not stick has to be upwards of 90%. Always has been and likely always will be. Maybe the answer is for the CFL to work with universities to help groom Canadian quarterbacks who have potential rather than ignore them or bury them on the PR until they age out.

Alexander appears to be an injury waiting to happen....The guy obviously has a big problem and IF Montreal had any sense they'd be shoring up their qb. stable ...It's too bad they hadn't addressed this sooner, as there seems to be a lot of disgruntled fans in Mont., who are seriously questioning some of the teams moves...

To talk away the day before a game because you didn't like the depth chart is just all kinds of weak sauce .

Rourke is the best QB and it's not close... But if you watched the CFL at all last year, you know that Alexander is right behind him. All he does is win... (And get hurt, unfortunately...) VAJ is summertime only BLM is a rollercoaster Harris is dink n dunk and has had one healthy season Collaros TBD Dru keeps getting hurt but CAN be lethal... Kelly can get ******... Faj is Faj... Weak armed and relies on Jesus sprinkles.

On FB, what appears to be Wilson's wife is commenting that TE was handed the 2QB role without competition.

There’s a person on twitter who appears to be Terry Wilson’s mom responding to every tweet about his situation. She makes it pretty clear he knew he wasn’t getting the backup job.

well it prob moreso the guys who left knowing the were in a bad spot...as opposed to anything nefarious going on, or issues with coaching....this yr...I could of seen guys quiting on numbnutz OC last yr Thorne was just being realistic...he wasnt really faring well and knew he had no chance here...with ZC the starter....a 3 yr vet ahead of him....knowing with all the hype...and the performance of Elgersma that he wasnt going anywhere, and Perkins who is experienced, and finding his way and was well ahead of Thorne in performance Wilson not so sure....maybe he was told they were gonna give Elgersma and Perkins most the reps after ZC as they kinda know what Wilson has/os and that rubbed him wrong way and he just said eff it....possible, or he as well saw the same thing Thorne saw and realized he wasn't out performing Perkins, and that Perkins is likely to get better as he gets more use to the Canadian game...so wanted to walk away, thinking/hoping he's be released and able to latch on elsewhere before camps winded up?...Possible...but we suspended instead, so maybe there is more to it and some personal stuff going on...as we could have just released him if he asked for it, and cant see why we wouldn't...I sure the real story will emerge after this 1st pre-season game and its spoken to next week...Its not like the guy is useless and has zero to offer...If Dom Davis could have the amount of yrs up here running short yardage, Then Wilson surely can as he is damn good at it, and actually in right situ has more to offer....but his future here was likely not happening with ZC here and Elgersma...Especially if ZC pulls a BLM and becomes injury free all yr...and shoots the lights out, he could conceivably wanna play another yr and mentor Elgersma...or even back him up if the kid is legit and wins the job...be a pretty good backup and set of eyes on the sidelines for a young QB

yeah from what I know...Bates is a real douchewhistle and I feel for a lot of the players who had to endure that

as much as the pest is..well a pest...He has to be in the convo of top 3 QB's in league. He been inactive for 2 yrs now so interesting to see what he has this yr when he is playing, but based on what we saw prior....and if he has actually matured and become a legit quality pro...in personality and demeanor....He likely is at the top this yr

I agree. I’m not a Bo Levi fan, but you have to show you’re capable of being successful over a full season before you can be ranked ahead of the proven all stars.

I'd rank BLM, Vernon Adams & Trevor Harris over him easily at this point. Depends on how this season goes Dru Brown & ZC may also rank higher. The sample size of Alexander is much too small at this point. Lots of potential... needs to prove it on the field for more then 2 - 3 games at a time.

Yes. I’d also put him at 2.

it's not exactly a high bar... I mean who else is in the conversation? The sex pest?

I think it’s two very different situations. Every year there are guys who don’t even show up to camp, or come and leave in the first couple of days. Thorne was a PR candidate and seems to have made a career decision. Wilson was told the depth chart - which in any other year he’d be listed as #2 based simply on tenure - but was pushed down the depth chart and is seemingly blaming the organization for not giving him a chance.

Watched Thorne interview shortly after he signed here and he sounded pretty ready to move into coaching. Like wasn't counting on having a pro career. Wilson maybe not seeing progress for himself in working up the depth chart but also the game is the chance to win a job. Could be something personal too.

I'm not sure if Thorne had playing time coming... I'm not sure how you give 5 QBs playing time in a game. For Wilson... maybe I'm a bit cynical but is it that hard to think Wilson who has attempted 39 passes through 4 season of pro football and coming into this 3rd season on a team being told that he'll be battling for the 3rd QB spot finally deciding before live bullets start going that maybe this is the end of the line? Can I vote for the option of poor roster management? Why bring a guy back for his third year to compete to hold a clipboard all year? I'm guessing for a little bit of continuity but you know what you have in him after 2 full seasons.

One guy leaving that's not weird... two guys leaving early. I can't remember ever having 2 qbs quit before even getting a chance in a pre season game. Are we recruiting bad character players? Are the guys being treated like ****? Do we just have bad luck? Condell pissing people off? It would be nice to have a reporter speak with the guys and get their side on why they left.

With his career 16 TD over 4 seasons you are declaring him the best QB in the league with Rourke?

The one time I agree with you. Both knew they had playing time coming. So, go out & show how good they are. To quit a day or 2 before that game makes no sense. From a business sense.
