    Good for you. You're quite sure, based on absolutely nothing.

    Fan Boy reacted to 17to85 in Report - cjob to lose radio rights (real story)   
    How do people not understand that it's all entertainment? It's like the heels in the pro 'rasslin. Just trying to get a reaction out of people and in order to do that you gotta go over the top. No one gets excited about a moderate balanced opinion on the radio.

    Bearpants and Tracker, I liked the combination upper cut and then jab so much I had to go past just liking. Good work guys. I spit coffee onto my paperwork. Lucky I didn't hit the Blackberry.

    Rod Black gets even worse during pre-season.
     
    "Did you know his mom is a conceptual artist?  Such a rich environment.  And he plays football!!!  After growing up in a house with a mom who's a conceptual artist!!!  Truly he's a renaissance man.  Bombers recover a fumble for a touchdown.  So how do you think family meals went?  Mom wants to talk about art, and the son wants to talk about football!!!  Boy, I sure wouldn't want to be the dad, getting in the middle of that!!!  Seven players from each team ejected.  And what a classic CFL name!  Corduroy Jones!  That's got to be up there in the pantheon of great CFL names.  There's been so many names over the years.  Appears to be a sniper in the press box firing at the referees.  Theodore Wallaby.  Glassface McButternuts.  Idaho Youdaho.  Great names.  And the tattoos those guys have!!!  Farhan Lalji has a report from the sidelines for us.  Hopefully about tattoos.  Farhan..."
     
    I'll go with glass half full on this one.

    So his favourite part about coaching is coaching, and his least favourite part about coaching is not coaching.

    Depends where he lines up eventually. If he has the size to play wideout then he'll most likely ever only play on one side of the field, reducing the number of routes on the tree by 50%. And it's not like every team uses a zillion different routes, I can't see him learning (or knowing) being that big of an issue.
     

     
    Just gives you an idea.

    Fan Boy reacted to Mike in Bombers working on trade for Evan Gill?   
    Did some inquiring this morning / last night ... still waiting to hear back from a few but the sense I got was that this is nothing serious. Don't want to suggest the rumor is false, so I won't plus you really do just never know, but it's nothing the usual suspects knew about. What I do know is that Hamilton and Winnipeg have been having talks since way back just prior to the draft, so maybe something comes from those.
     
    That being said - I've had a few people tell me the sense around the league is that Evan Gill could be had for pretty cheap - he's somewhat damaged goods and won't return anywhere near the first rounder Hamilton spent on him. Keep in mind, they spent a late first rounder on him in one of the weaker drafts in years. My guess is you could probably have him for a third or fourth rounder (with a special teamer thrown in for optics maybe)

    I'm not sure about giving up a starting National o-lineman for a question mark and a draft pick. None of us know when Gill will be fit to play or whether his injury will have an effect on his play.

    While Mark is definitely deserving of the job, I'd like to see Westysucks put in at kicker.  See how easy he makes it look.  Things could get awfully meta.

    All right fine.  Semantics.  Wally wanted a guy, had him in the bag, and thanks to fortune and circumstance, that guy became available, and we got him, not Wally.  And as Mr. Dee says, that makes me smile.  A lot.

    Maybe not, but at least we're on the same highway now, and when get into the fast lane to pass Wally's vehicle, we see the passenger seat is empty.
    That passenger is in our car.
    And I smile.

    I think that you can compress a baseball game with commercials into 30 minutes tells you all you need to know about baseball. 
     
    Personally I find baseball, golf and curling fascinating in how painfully slow everything moves and how difficult they still are to actually do.

    Not sure which of these buttons will allow me to go back up and make the appropriate changes.  "Num Lock"?  Is that it?  I've only had this computer for 6 months.  I'll keep looking.  Might have to call tech support.  I'd hate to leave something so needlessly inflammatory up there for no reason.

    Could care less.  If the Argos sell out BMO on a regular basis .. good for the league .. good for that franchise.   All I want is a healthy, viable CFL ..
