she'll be lucky if she gets Hallmark Holiday Hash

I think Ryan can recover his image... she is probably going to be regulated to smaller films and roles. Both of them came off as horrible from this ordeal.

Hopefully he doesn't come off as a smug pr**k when interacting with the PBP guys.

I can't stand the way he interacts with people online. It's insanely disrespectful. But I'm willing to give him a chance to with colour commentary. Though, it's a shame they couldn't/wouldn't find a former CFLer for that role.

it's about damn time https://people.com/blake-lively-justin-baldoni-wayfarer-settle-it-ends-with-us-lawsuit-11891516?utm_campaign=peoplemagazine&utm_content=manual&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com

I'm not sure if this is better or worse....

Doug Brown isn't just the best DT of his generation, he's arguably the best DT of all time, any nationality.

Pretty much. Back in the day, great DTs never got the appreciation they deserved. Doug brown never got a sniff at MODP, little on mop. But is one of the very best players in that generation. He should've been in on it at least 4-5 times. The thing is, QB play is pretty fixed these days. Top tier qbs don't move often, and are found even less frequently up here. The 3rd-4th best QB in the league isn't much better than the 10-12th best guys. Meanwhile, the Lines are much more plentiful for upgrades. And those top linemen have a much bigger impact on winning then optmizing with in the mediocre tier of QBs. Teams and fans value the inside disruptor far more than ever before, but they are still not as high as pass-rushing bookends. A great edge player who has a great game might get pressure on half his snaps. A great DT in a solid game might get pressure on 15% of his snaps, but converts far more of those into more punishment and more sacks, and also could easily disrupt the pocket on 2/3s of his snaps. We saw this with Kola getting roadrunner'd by Ceresna, entire games where Zach had no snaps where he could step up into the pocket. No joke. At DL and QB, we just can't afford injuries this year. Not just Jake, willy or lawson too. Lawson goes down schmek is playing an old jake number of reps. willy goes down mid season and we have a handfull of combined games of experience among all the rest of the ends.

The upgrade from Jake to Jake is almost unbelievable.... ....thoughts and prayers for health across our roster, but for Ceresna in particular. He's had some recent injury trouble but hopefully will be free and clear all year.

For sure. That's what I liked about Jaworski, he was more of a traditional DE not undersized. The pocket will be collapsing for sure. If we can get a guy that can get the LT backpedaling QBs will have to deal with either getting sacked by Willie J or throwing right into his wingspan. JC is a dominant guy and will make a ton of difference. He was my number one choice for the Bombers to target in FA and I'm glad they felt the same.

All of a sudden, not so bad in the 'peg

The old football fan rule is that the most popular guy on the team is the backup quarterback, but it seems like on MBB the most popular guy is the monster DT or NT.

lol the first one in the early 90's. Mike said they were bouncing checks on the coaching staff (amongst other things) so he called up one of his contacts down south and eventually started scouting for the Chiefs.

......yeah ...the bet must have included standing under a pigeons nest and not moving until the bird did his predictable droppings thing...

Hes a brilliant pick up for us. Especially next to lawson. We need another guy inside to rotate, but the interior is gonna be beastly. That will for sure make it much easier for the edge guys to excel.

But what do you mean by "turn a profit"? Are you only referring to what the team makes through ticket sales, food, merch? Or are you including TV deal, gambling and league advertising revenue? No, the new moves will not improve attendance. But they will inject new moey into the league which is distributed to teams regardless of high or low attendance.

Hoping that with the addition of Ceresna that it really takes the pressure off the other guys on the line. Our interior has been so weak lately I bet it makes it that much more difficult to contain. But I'm no expert.

The teams with good attendance are the ones turning a profit. IMO, they are gambling on the revenue streams you mention - and hoping they'll be the new difference makers

Which glieberman era? lol Yeah, I was excited to see more of him. We certainly need to keep getting after DL to bring in for camp now. We've got 6 end only guys on the roster, 4 of whom are under 250 lbs an by a decent margin under. We also have 1-2 guys are are possible edge/3t tweeners. Dixon is a guy to watch at edge, he played a couple games in the NFL and stuck around the pr down there for 2 years. And we still have jenkins who got into the same game last year and was solid. Other wise, we are not only thin on the edge, we are green. Really don't want to see Ayers as the DE again

the thing I want to know: what clubhouse bet did Vega lose to end up modelling those abortions?

I thought Jaworski was going to be our guy opposite Willie. That sucks.

Toronto unfortunately will never turn a profit no matter what the CFL does. These moves weren't made to get them out of red ink. They just don't support the CFL there. Too bush for the centre of the universe. Corporate support will never happen because any business clients would be insulted by Argo tickets at BMO instead of Leafs/Raptors/Jays.

Ya I thought I remembered reading a stat a few years back about how, despite their attendance figures, the Argos games on TSN actually had big audience numbers. People in the GTA watch the games, they just don't go to them...

Attendance is not the only factor anymore. Play-off games have double the TV audience, Ad revenues sold by the league instead of the teams, additional gambling revenue (which is where all the new money is coming from). All of this will affect the TV deal which is currently being negotiated. I don't think the league cares if people buy tickets or not for the additional games. It's not why these moves are being made.
