  1. Meh, Friesen is the journalist's equivalent of a wrestling heel- always causing ****, but always entertaining- he is a much more tolerable read, when viewed through this lens.
  2. Odd, I never got that... from all I have read about him, his politics seemed more complicated and nuanced than that. I think he held some very strong libertarian ideals too... and many Republican ideals...
  3. Rolling stone had an interesting article about that very same thing. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/toby-keith-politics-republican-1234962575/
  4. I thought he would go at least $180k even pushing to $200k. He's a baller, young and I don't think he's hit his ceiling yet.
  5. My Dark Horse prediction (in 4 months before the start of the season) for the East- ALLCAPS. That's where my money would go right now.
  6. Well, one thing that helps the argos is having John Murphy digging up players he is the CFL talent scout equivalent of a truffle pig. The guy is a tremendous talent scout, but has a personality of said truffle pig. The argos will still bring in great talent into the league, they will be fine. Side note... every time I see a pic of Murphy, I am ALWAYS reminded of Pvt. Lawrence's final scene in Full Metal Jacket.
  7. Damn, FA hasn't even started yet... No kidding, 16-2 and then complete overhaul. I don't get it
  8. BO is good- granted. I think he was also the benefactor of an offense designed around him, a commitment to running the ball and an Oline that has a powerful run aspect to it. I think you put Stanback, Brown or Karey in that offence, I feel any one of them would have churned out more yard from scrimmage. Now factor in the savings- either one of those three, probably could be had for less than $150k- a savings of ~$90k. That is a good chunk of change for other areas of need. Also, I think Stanback would have been a really good fit here- I think his running style fits the Bombers Identity best. I do like the hometown hearo story line and he is genuinely a good egg. BUt if its team first- I think flipping the rb to import would be the way to go. Just my opinion.
  9. Agree with the bolded- but I was hoping to flip the RB position and go Import...
  10. Love Roadhouse, butvifbhe is asking for 300k, I am ok with moving on. That is going to be a stupid cap cap hit for us... rookie contract to 300k... ouch.
  11. Or that most people see BO coming back a sure thing and Schoen not so much, so they invest in Bomber merch accordingly?
  12. I think the als will gun for BO- they resigned Antwi and shed Stanback- looks like this would be the way they are going- National @ RB.
  13. Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
  14. I like the Kolo, signing... cheap and effective. He would for sure be a starter on a few other teams... that low contract coupled with average started skill level are awesome trade bait.
