I'm thinking he doesn't want to go out as a cheater and I think the only way the CFLPA will appeal your case is if you are an active player.

Probably thinking it would end his shot at the HoF.

Don't know about what is usual, but I walked into the steinbach one a week and a half ago and didn't see any employees till I got to the till lol. 

 

Just googled it, thinking maybe this was some failure to follow protocol thing. But it looks like the ID to enter is just in winnipeg, done in response to those passive theft/raids that were happening a ways back. Doesn't seem like it's the case in rural MB. 

There are cities in Manitoba outside of Winnipeg?

Don't you need to get your ID scanned to even enter an LC these days?

You do. 

Yup.

Agreed - thought in the second half of the season in particular he played gradually better football.

He definitely got better with more opportunity. 

Barker needs to read the room. I’m not really sure why this is the hill he wants to plant his flag on?

The league was doing everything possible in the hopes this disappeared.

Plus, the schedule was probably **** because of his team’s availability, just like always. 

Get off it, Man.

Seems like guys for the sake of continuity, which I like. But let’s see these new guys get some opportunities. Curious to see who can step up.

They’re going to have to take a job with the opportunity they get. 
 

Gotta be undeniable.

Cheap shotting our guys and then Rasheed  puts him in the dirt …you love to see it.

Feel like we will be in the market for more DEs right now. 6 ends vs 9 dts. 
 

Pretty happy with our off season ol work. Didn’t think Wallace would be in camp thought he’d get an nfl look. I expect a lot out of Vanterpool and Coleman. I would not be surprised if one is the starter to replace Hardrick. Keith is a good talent too, and while I’m not a fan of Lofton atleast he does bring experience and is very far from a default pick at rt. 
 

I wonder if we add another K now as well

Watching Hamilton to see what happens with the DEs

nope....With Clericus here now.....doing stuff Sheed did...I can see KJ Hill as the front runner now.....as they have cut Thompson.....and he can return as well which bodes well as a back up if we DI a dedicated returner/part time offensive snaps guy which we likely do

We need one guy to step up  out of the rookies. That should be doable.

Hamilton cut Terry Godwin

That’s a surprise to me. He can be a difference maker in this league for sure. I don’t know how you afford him if you’re the Bombers, but he’ll play somewhere in this league for sure.

He isn’t needed here.

Rider's cut Edwards Cooper as well...thought he was a big signing??....and assume he got a signing bonus?....savvy SMS move there Oday u dolt!

JC Abbott claimed this was one of the biggest signings in free agency. 
 

Didn’t even make it to camp.

The funny thing is, this is exactly the kind of stuff a good reporter would learn and ask about.

**** are they ever lazy 

Camp hasn’t even started and you are already asking where the coverage is😉

JK though, I agree. 

Thanks,DT.

Thanks.

The only reason it's confusing at all is the use of the word, "Minimum". Makes it seem like there is no maximum. 

Minimum definitely sounds like the floor to me.

If that is the case how were the Argos expected to justify giving Chad Kelly 100k in promo money?

Thats alot to give to one player. How many appearances was he expected to make? 

If it isn’t the case, and there is no cap, he could do one appearance for $10M I guess? 

There needs to be some monetary value placed on it. Otherwise I’m paying Collaros $600k  and having him attend one event. 

6 minutes ago, wbbfan said:

I think it’s a one contract thing. 60k base and ceiling that goes up to 60k floor and 100k ceiling next year. I don’t think you can tack as many of those on top of who Evers contract as you want. 

I’m pretty sure there is a set amount per appearance and your number of appearances has to reflect that number. 
 

So, while there is no cap on it , the math has to work out.

I'm not sure that's true.

I am pretty sure it is. But the league reviews it and the promo work has to check out. 
 

At least in the sense that you don’t make a mockery of it.

Milt Stegall looks pretty good

I refuse to believe it.

Brand new turf, brand new team, brand new game for a lot of these guys, I would assume the coaching staff isn’t asking them to go 0 to 100 and risk injury on day one. 
 

We know our staff looks at so much more than their on-field stuff, these guys are going to make an impression or get a chance to for sure, but I doubt it’s balls to the wall right out of the gate.

Tell me anything about anybody there.

Not sure what else you’re going to expect from rookie camp day one, I would assume it’s mostly conditioning drills and very half effort reps

Anything? At all?

They have 3 days to get to main camp , I would hope they are not giving half effort.

Wish we could see what milt could do in a scrimmage

Why? 

All we get is Milt Stegall updates I guess.

So that is great.

Sorry Jay, but it is precisely still a he-said she-said... but it just becomes a they-said they-said. 

Imagine giving perpetual **** up Chad Kelly the benefit of the doubt. 
 

Clearly the league found enough to validate a violation of their Code of Conduct, which I have to imagine goes through a lawyer first (or should).  

See ya!

How many wake up calls does he need?

Guy clearly has 3 functioning brain cells.

Maybe he can tell them about how much he loves the Gappers. 
 

He talks about it enough on TSN. 

Looks like they’re painting the walls at PAS.

they should just wrap them, but the sideline walls desperately need to be re-painted if nothing else.
