Someone tracked him down.

Maybe it's like the Texadas where we have to try them all to find the good one

Scout: good news KW, we got Rucker from North Carolina KW: you mean Rucker from North Dakota? Scout: Yeah, Kaimon Rucker? KW: Lance Rucker?? Scout: ****

I'm pretty sure most of us would get along just fine in person.

Osh..."Doesnt he sing for the Hootie and the Blowfish???" Kyle: Just STFU and put the best roster on the field

Maybe he can piss Dinwiddie off so he gets cut.

Theft, you meant to say theft

Always thought of MBT as a guy who can decently manage the game for you

you forgot to mention that you met the man, the myth, the legend.....BOOOOOOOOCHHHHH!! lol

This made me chuckle... Wondering if they accidentally added the wrong Rucker and had to quickly dump the one and add the other...

It's not enforced until the end of the season but it still matters. Teams still have to plan/budget to be cap compliant otherwise why wouldn't BC have taken him back? Biggie himself said the timing of his return to the CFL meant teams had already spent according to their budget. "After I got released from New Orleans, I didn’t know where football was going to take me at first, especially because of the timing. I knew CFL camps hadn’t started yet, but teams had filled their rosters and spent their salary caps already looking to win a Grey Cup. I knew finding a home wasn’t going to be impossible, but it was going to be tougher than normal."

My ISP ran into a major equipment failure and after 6 days, they still could not tell me when they would be back online. I still have reasons to be accessible online and so I told them to end my service. All of my accumulated emails were lost and I had to sign up with Bell/MTS. I contacted a couple of the mods here and asked that my old handle be updated so that I could keep my old handle, but received no response and the only way for me to be here was to establish a new identity.

That might depend on how much firewater is consumed.

He is a legend!! A very nice guy as well!

Didn't Durant's abrupt retirement free up some space as well?

Thanks for the concern and sympathy. Remember when we were told that technology would make our lives simpler? This is just a bump in the road.

Maybe had his login email tied to his ISP account. Like a @shaw.ca email.

Wierd, I've gone through ISP changes, VPN changes, Country and City changes, multiple machines, Windows, Linux, Android and always kept my sign on.

Yeah not saying it was a dollar for dollar replacement but Durant bailing gave us some room under the cap that BC didn't have.

The savings on Durant were minimal as we had paid his signing bonus at the time of his retirement. However it would have accounted for some of Bighill's salary. Semantics. Whether KW didn't offer him anything, or did and failed to get his guy, it both ends up with the same F grade for our GM. This whole you can't make a guy sign here might work for hockey, but in the CFL there is no excuse for losing out on a player if you want him bad enough. GM's are literally hired and fired based on their ability to get guys under contract. That may not be fair, but it most certainly is there job description. If they are good at it they will succeed and flourish, if they are not they will inevitably be replaced. Walters was very good at getting FA's here at one time. He does not seem to be that great at it anymore.

yes quite enjoyed the meet up and I had my nice guy face on lol..Especially since you brought your wife too I was on best behavior 😁 most definitely...differing opinions isn't grounds to hate and makes for exactly what a forum should be...good discussion and point counter point this is an alias??...I never knew..Who was this sneaky sneaker guy? lol

I've met Johnzo and Brandon at different times over the years, and had a great time with Bluto at the 2011 Grey Cup. Biggest regret - I really wish I could have met Ritch Dowrey in person.

I'm a lover not a fighter. Especially when I know I'd get my ass kicked. Nah, it was great meeting you.

I am rooting for him... I picked Ottawa to win in the pick em's this week! First time this year that I have picked them.

I watched most of the recent Stanley Cup plus a bunch of world cup games on some random high seas sites that I googled. It was fine, worth what I paid for it. Generally the streams would get wobbly at the start of game / period / half when everyone started tuning in so sometimes patience would be needed. Not a great experience, but I'm cheap.

I've got my gaming PC in my living room so if I want to watch live I use a VPN to virtually relocate myself to Colombia and watch the CFL Plus stream. If I don't care about live, I'll watch the next day on Youtube. Several youtubers regularly post full games, sometimes within hours of the game ending. CFL+ is okay, it's got decent quality, almost never buffers and I don't feel like it's injecting malware into my PC after every first down. Unfortunately it has no easy fast forward or rewind functionality, just a stupid narrow play bar that you gotta click on, makes it hard to skip past the commercial breaks. Plus those breaks are tuned up about fifty dB over the game broadcast! It's a weird ******* move by CFL+ because they're not showing actual ads in those spaces. The youtube games are awesome and are the best way to watch. the commercials are all stripped out and with careful use of the +10s forward button you can watch a game in like 45 minutes. I wonder if the CFL will go after those harder next year, when the dazn era begins.

Yes, Durant's money definitely played a role. Biggie even said himself the timing of things and the salary cap were the biggest reasons why he didn't go back to BC. Just trying to keep up with Montreal!

Vaccaro definitely would like to come home...I think he was disappointed that he wasn't a Bomber BUT we realistically didn't have a shot at him in the draft....His family sure turned out for him when Ottawa came to town.....He'll be a Bomber sooner or later

Dinwiddie in his office right now:

Maybe Vaccaro comes home in a couple seasons if Ottawa doesn't completely wreck him - might be a long term center option for us.

nope

next year we can enact the Tburg rule - no Horvath or "Tommy time" (h/t to our old pal Suits) Stevens TD's allowed lol....

Congrats Bigblue204 Rich will be in contact with you about the prize.

I don't want TBF lol

Collaros had 2 ints and mustered 10 points in the first half despite the D standing on its head and providing a turnover This collaros glazing does not compute with me. He's still underthrowing balls, running into sacks, not reading the blitz and causing turnovers in/near the red zone

I don't understand the Brown skepticism "We're cooked without collaros" Hard disagree They blitzed, brown got it off lightning fast, first down. Way faster than zach. Kevens with an s didn't come down with that bomb but that was a perfect throw deep that collaros is incapable of Riders sliced through our o line and brown got back to the LOS, collaros would've lost 7 yards I'm EXCITED for brown in the future

Love kicking off in both halves. Ugh. Or he’s dumb as a post.

I’m sorry i have no idea what 47 just said. He might have a concussion.

I would like to reiterate a comment I'm made in the past. Football teams should make mandatory public speaking classes a clause in their contract!

I adore how some out there in internet land (e.g., Trevor Connor from hockey feed whoever that may be) and CH's agent are suggesting that because CH and his agent privately informed Chevy early in the summer he wanted to be traded out of Wnnipeg and its being reported that teams like Florida and Buffalo were interested but are saying Chevy either delayed on and/or refused offers made that Chevy is at fault to where they are at now, i.e., no deal made, uncertainty abound as the 2026/2027 season begins because hey Chevy didn't get a deal done and he had gobs of time. I'm sorry, what? I find the first word coming to my mind when reading this are blowhards. I'm sorry, is Winnipeg suppose to bend over backwards to ensure CH's request to get out of his longterm generous signed contract with Jets is expedited even if Winnipeg takes a hit in what we get back for him because Chevy thinks it's a deal that isn't satisfactory but the critic/agent thinks no it's a fair deal or we don't want to wait anymore, take it? I'm sorry, who is the GM here? Please. I strongly believe Chevy is in a position of strength (regardless of how the upcoming season goes with wins and losses) not the other way around like the above people I mentioned are suggesting. And this personal stuff apparently going on behind the scenes with how his wife has been treated by certain parts of the Winnipeg public online and/or in person are two separate issues and one should not dictate how the other is handled.
