Saw a tweet where someone suggested the Argos need to sign a player named Wildest now. 😀

The best part about her is how she ties the alt right up in knots to where they post totally wild criticism on message boards like this.

Today I have brought shame upon my family.

Missed week 1 payroll...that’s all-time bad. Didn’t even start the season with operating capital for one week.

It took Masoli 6 years to "emerge", people are giving new QB's a year or two to prove their worth.

okay, rod black

Well, being able to balance a gin glass on top of my nose.....does not make me a trained seal.

Jesus... what the **** is wrong with you? why would you defend that ****? You're going full Lyle E. Style here. You never to go full Lyle.

He is on the ice.

Come to think of it he might have to hit the Roh'd if we find a younger cheaper replacement

As much as I like Roh, does he make the Bombers roster as a Rohtational player this year? Seems like the trend is to save some money. After signing Jeffcoat and Jefferson to big money, our 3rd DE may need to be a rookie.

When a flatbilly doesn't think the Riders are in trouble right now...

The AAF has a new recognition award: the payer of the week. This week’s winner - Tom Dundon, owner of the Carolina Hurricanes.

And in Riderville, they have already a slogan for this season: "Riders 2019: worse than Riders 2018 but better than Riders 2020."

nice...maybe we have an uber motivated guy...I like his skill set and potential...hopefully his year of seasoning will produce this

The greatest lie ever told is that trickle down economics works. That is why the establishment has such a hate on for Ocasio Cortez. She care more about working class schmucks than the ultra rich.

For those that don't know, in NHL circles, Dundon is generally regarded as a complete wing nut. He is the laughing stock of BOG meetings. He has outlandish ideas he wants the NHL to adopt to make the game "more exciting". Think choreographed dance performances after every goal. Mark my words within a few weeks the AAF players will be dancing. He already has the Hurricanes doing it.

It would be stupid if he actually gave 250 million up front. He didn't do that, he bought the league on a 250 million dollar "commitment". All that means is if things go swimmingly he is willing to bankroll the league for awhile until it gets traction. Make no mistake, if the league continues to flounder he will get out LONG before he spends 250m on it. Dundon may be rolling the dice on this league in order to get his name on the list as a future NFL owner. IF he can turn this dog around it will get him noticed in football circles. If he can't he will be out of dodge faster than you can shake a stick and long before he spends 250m. At any rate, look for wholesale financial changes to this league in the near future. Dundon is going to clip expenses at an exponential rate after this season....maybe sooner.

Settle down. That bolded statement is not remotely true and you know it.

Erroneously plays the Victim Card. Proceeds to go on the attack rather than actually substantiate his claim. And then whips out the tinfoil while lecturing on others on breaking through biases. Holy shitballs.

And don't play the "I am incapable of thinking for myself card". How about that? Did you read the information? Can you break through your inherent personal biases and just read something that people you have chosen to trust have told you you can't read? Stop giving in to Big Brother and think for yourself.

Best pure returner was AJ III if he would of not gone to NFL he would have a lot of records for the franchise

This is really low and gross. People like you who are attacking those who defended someone why, by all accounts, was a victim come across as relishing in the fact it wasnt true. Like it never happens. What planet do you live on? How much joy do you take in the fact this idiot has hurt the cause for legitimate victims? Knock it off. Virtue-signalling. Good God. Defending victims of racist and homophobic attacks is virtue signalling? You know that sounds a lot like you support attacks based on those things, right? Super gross.

Are you sure its not a cover story to keep Buff out pending a trade? Buff to Ottawa! 😉

From what I've been reading, they bought time on CBS to air the games. No cash flow.

Frank Seravalli from TSN cautions that Jets wouldn't want to get burned having to carry this over to next year.... in the event they use the space & Laine actually gets top 10. McDavid & Pastrnak currently tied for 11th with 31 a piece... 6 ahead of Laine.

Remember when people were saying the AAF would be the end of the CFL...? I 'memba.

What kind of stupid investment is that?

Wow, didn't expect Wild to continue on with his career, good for him.

you always have to develop guys though..can be a cheaper replacement for roh next year if Jefferson extends perhaps?...

Better make sure safe search is set to on lol. It may mess them up seeing her starring role in some of her movies.

Yeah..but is that sustainable..and what if other cities are pulling in low teens..or worse And now they missed payroll after the second week, and had to have an NHL owner fork over a whack of cash to keep them afloat..I give that league maybe till end of first season

Theres a minimum?

They've had some real winners in charge over the years. Roy Shivers, Eric Tillman & Chris Jones. No wonder the culture of the club is the way it is.

Nope, you can't. He obviously fell on the sword for Trudeau - they have to give him something to keep him quiet - dangle a carrot

A very excellent Thread on FBI, DOJ and trump. Or use Threader for a more eye friendly way to read through this monster thread: https://threader.app/thread/1097539215800352768

I actually think Myers has been pretty strong lately. He had a terrible start to the season, but has been solid for a while now.

Why the one year deal then? I don't believe that for a second. Willie was pissy that Micah got more money than him here and that's why he turned down our offer and left. O'day valued Micah more and Willie didn't like it

And last year he was 9 games for 553 yrds and 1 TD. I think the point most are making is its risky taking a guy coming off a knee injury like that and expecting 2016/2017 #s

This team needs better receivers, no doubt about it, but bemoaning Arceneaux to the Riders is foolish. They guy was looking pretty close to done even before he wrecked his knee. He will be a non-factor.

That Riders team is going to be both bad AND old. Impressive.

I fully expect Streveler to take over at least midway this season, if not sooner.

If we are talking QBs then what Strev has shown in his short time behind centre suggests he is a far better QB than Nichols....quicker decisions, better arm, better running, and spreads the ball around much better. However if you include the OC into the equation it may well be a different conversation. Many who have watched LAPO years ago see the same tendencies even today......he does not game plan for big strikes it’s all short and dump so he may well hinder what the QBs including Strev can and will do. With that said I totally agree from what I have seen Strev is a better QB and with some experience he will show he is a prototypes CFL QB. My hope is that both the OC and HC realize what they have....develop him and make sure he gets playing time so he doesn’t bolt to the NFL after this season. Make him feel wanted he seems like a real down to earth kid!

That's why Bo Levi is better than Nichols. Despite losing several of his top receivers, he had no problem adjusting and throwing to whoever was on the field. Nichols doesn't seem to be able to do that. If his leg injury is well healed, he should throw better next season.

That's just the make-up of the man though. Khari had that gunslinger mentality and I'm sure his OCs (at times) weren't too thrilled with some of those chuck and duck plays but couldn't fault the results. One real difference between Strevs and Nichols is how they spread the ball around. Streveler didn't lock into a single guy (or no single guy dominated targets - for the most part) .. Each game, whether by accident or design, Nichols seems to .. "forget" about certain players.

I didn't see very much change in play calling between Streveler and Nichols. I saw one qb being hesitant and dumping it off and the other qb making much quicker decisions and had the arm strength to "knife" it in to guys like Wolly and Thompkins. Far to much last season did we see Nichols struggle throwing balls around the 10 yard mark where a receiver would be in stride and could catch the ball and gather some YAC. From what I watched guys had to dive or go to the ground to make any catches giving them no chance to turning it up field. Streveler was light years better at throwing to guys in stride. I do agree though that we run way to many passes that suit Nichols where it's a quick dump off and hope that the guy can break a tackle and make it 10 yards. I'd like to see more plays that they used to do with Khari where he chucked it up and let the receivers either make or break the play.

As badly as I want us to get a big play reciever, at this point I’d be happy if we saved our cash for when Matthews is done waiting for the NFL or better yet if a Zylstra becomes available. I don’t want us to blow our load on a player like Manny, honestly I’d just sign Dressler cheap and go with three Canadian receivers to start the year if we can’t recruit an effective one. A guy like Simonise could end up being exactly what we need and he’s already on the team.
