I'm 65 & at least the UCP did something right today by saying I won't be getting the Astra Zenica vaccine even though Health Canada has cleared the vaccine for everyone. Instead anyone 65 & over here will get the Pfizer-Bio Ntech vaccine instead. Not thrilled having to wait 4 months for my second shot but we need to get vaccines into people's arms as quickly as possible.

We have the same **** in Alberta. Rural UCP MLA's want all restrictions eliminated. I get into it with some of my Conservative friends on facebook who feel Covid is a scam & masks are useless. I have one friend who said Florida & South Dakota are normal like Covid never existed there. I just quote the numbers in those States & that's usually it.

You need toughness. Not speed. And a physicality to play inside because now you're bumping with linebackers & defensive backs. Not just corners on an island relying on a safety to have their backs. There isn't as much room so small windows of opportunities exist when the ball is thrown. Sure handedness & toughness outweigh speed.

I think Nichols lost his confidence & his hesitation was a result. My son used to go to a lot of qb camps in the US with some of the best coaches around at the college & pro level. I used to hear these coaches tell the qbs there to get rid of the ball quickly & "to trust your eyes". In other words if the pass is there don't question it just throw it as that window will close very quickly. Coming back, Nichols struggled losing his confidence. See my answer above.

Nichols was never scared. Leave it to a fan sitting in his living room to call out a player's courage. In 2018, he had a QBR of 91.0 & in 2019 it was 107.2.

How can you say Nichols doesn't have accuracy? Otherwise he'd be throwing interceptions all over the place & have a completion percentage well under 50%. Most of it was LaPo's offense. It's all about the routes & decisions Nichols made as to who he threw to. It has nothing to do with accuracy. Nichols career stats are as follows: He has attempted 2,373 passes with 1,582 completions for 18,363 yards & 108 touchdowns. He has a career completion average of 66.7% & has thrown 60 interceptions. Nichols has a career qb rating of 93.2. Those aren't numbers of a player who isn't accurate. Now, he has other deficiencies that come into play but that isn't what you said so therefore not worth mentioning. I'd like you to define accuracy...

Just a waste of talent.

It's more the offense we run. We throw the ball to the slots more than the wideouts. Put Woli inside he has the potential to be a legit thousand yard receiver. He deserves better than 2 catches for 17 yards kind of game we've seen.

Sure, random troll calling himself Horseman comes here & starts referencing John Hufnagel in a hockey thread of all things... Yet claims he doesn't know the only garbage fan site for Stamps fans is called CFL Horsemen? What a joke. Say hi for me to the biggest self important, bloated ego of an admin on the Internet. Emperor Geo.
-
For some reason they won't move Wolitarski inside which makes no sense at all.
-
Horseman is from Calgary. He threw in a Hufnagel reference already.
-
-
Horseman, huh? So, one of the 5 active posters left on that stupid site is bothering to troll here? What's the matter too busy there for ya?? Lol.
-
Don't you think Drew Wolitarski would make a great slot rather than a wideout? He seems wasted out there.
-
When it does, it handcuffs them elsewhere on the roster. Canadians can play RT as it isn't normally the qbs blind side.
-
I can't remember the last time I saw a backhanded goal.
-
Every NHL goalie lets in bad goals because of the style of play now. On their knees in the butterfly constantly trying to block shots & take away the ice low by the posts. They're caught out of position a lot or are beaten high on what seem weak shots from far out. Forwards busy charging the net trying to distract them or block their vision.
-
Because most of them coming out of college can't play tackle in the CFL. They aren't ready. They've never played against guys like Odell Willis, Charleston Hughes or Willie Jefferson. If a talented Canadian OL is available & so is a Canadian receiver the OL goes first. Canadians play Guard & Center while Americans play left & right tackle. Generally no more than 2 Americans on the line.
-
Like Canadian OL you can never have enough receivers. Besides we have nothing but bad luck signing guys who had great careers with other teams but are getting a little long in the tooth... Bryant Mitchell had a torn achilles so that is a concern. Collins had 1100 yards in 19 & is only 28.

Sportsnet Discontinues Radio Broadcasts of Blue Jays Games
SpeedFlex27 replied to SpeedFlex27's topic in General Discussion
I'm surprised that the broadcasts weren't making money considering the games were also broadcast across the country. -
The cuts keep coming. This time Sportsnet drops coverage of Blue Jays games on radio. The only MLB team to do that. games on radio will be simulcast from their TV broadcasts. Our media is totally ****** in this country. The 2 big monopolies Bell & Rodgers should be broken up before everything is gone. I'm no jays fan but this is craziness. If they can't make money with an audience of at least 5 million in the GTA & games being fed to Sportsnet radio stations across the country, how could they not be making money??? Perhaps our resident radio expert Noeller can explain to us what is going on....

Saw a tweet today that said Ricky Collins has retired. Here's a story that goes into detail about his leaving football. It seems teams don't want to pay for quality receivers anymore unless you're Derel Walker & he got no calls after he was released. He was owed $30,000 signing bonus but was released before the Esks had to pay him which left him feeling bitter. Edmonton has turned into a joke of an organization since a new President as well as GM Brock Sunderland took over. Pissing off players & fans alike. He would have looked good in a Bomber uniform.

Their curlers are like their football team. They've only won like 4 Briers.
