  1. Wade Miller: Leave. Our. Uniforms. Alone. https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=B2SGzkhe&id=D6FAF59222BBB939FE56011DFF55F3E7EFB1BEAF&thid=OIP.B2SGzkhe4yk7Se1pgmiSHAEsDH&mediaurl=http%3a%2f%2fi.makeagif.com%2fmedia%2f11-08-2015%2fNxNWHo.gif&exph=213&expw=320&q=leave+brittany+alone+gif&simid=608041303186868920&ck=7325C73A30B4C9715AD75E288F172745&selectedIndex=71&ajaxhist=0
  2. You know, maybe if a single player still living at home having just graduated & has no income coming in & would play for food & a roof over his head even in pandemic. But if a player is married at 26 or 27 with a couple of young kids they have financial comittments like all of us do. They all have jobs at that age as well as responsibilities. Why would they leave their jobs for a pay cut? If I was one of those guys, I'd never play. Not for the money the CFL has offered.
  3. Not really. Zach Collaros played extremely well on that Grey Cup run. He deserves as much credit for that GC win as does Chris Streveler. Put Streveler as the starter with the Bombers & we're 7-11 at best & 5-12 at worst. Put Glenn as the starter & we're 13-5 or 11-7 at worst but not necessarily champs without Streveler. He's at his best in at key situations when the offense has bogged down. Or we need a spark to get going & then he's money. Not money as a starter, though He doesn't have it as the starter. Streveler's strength was coming off the bench on short yardage or goal line, throw a few passes & terrorize the defense for a couple of series with his running ability. Enough to change the momentum of a game. In other words, a situational qb. But he's not a starting qb. I don't think he ever will be. We'll see how he is used in Arizona.
  4. I know & I don't disagree. But getting back to Damon Allen how can anyone say he wasn't elite when he won 3 Grey Cups with 3 different teams & was the CFL's leading passer with over 72,000 yards for 11 years? Saying the only reason he got those stats is because he played a long time is totally inaccurate. He got those numbers because he was a damned good qb. He wouldn't have played that long for all of his head coaches if he didn't have talent. Allen wasn't fiery. He didn't wear his emotions on his sleeve like Matt Dunigan. He wasn't a screamer or a yeller. He was a quiet leader who let his play on the field do the talking. He had so much talent & smarts that the game was easy to him. To some fans it looked like he was disinterested at times but that was just his personality. Like I said, I'd take Damon Allen over Anthony Calvillo as my stating qb ten times out of 10.
  5. I have no idea what your point is. Do you actually think Westwood is Top 5?
  6. Three Grey Cups with 3 different teams. CFL's leading passer for 11 years. Shrinking violets don't play 20 seasons if they're **** assed scared. Lol. I get you & Relleon don't like the guy & that's fine but your absolute hatred makes no sense. I think he was a better qb than Anthony Calvillo. Ask yourself this question. Could Calvillo have won a Grey Cup with 3 different teams? My answer is no. Not a CHANCE.
  7. Esks 1975's talking about 17to85's argument about longevity. Glenn was never dominant. He was a journeyman who'd never elevate his teammates. Allen was & could. Stegall was a dominant player. Right up there with the best with players like Pitts. Maybe even GOAT.
  8. Not always. You wouldn't put your body on the line or be away from your young family for such little money. Most of these guys have jobs in the US. They can't afford to sit around doing nothing for 6 months of the year.
  9. And we know someone will get seriously injured. For what?? A four figure salary south of $20,000 Canadian. Total BS. No way Ambrosie is telling the truth about playing this season. I'll believe the players version of things over anything Ambrosie says.
  10. That's what he gets paid to do.
  11. I don't like Madani either but it doesn't mean he's wrong. Only Ambrosie Fan Boyz can say what a GREAT JOB he's doing. You can thank Relleon for getting me going. Since he poked the bear... Not many players are going to come back for a third of their salary & be in a bubble for however many days it takes to finish the season. Ambrosie & the BOG knows that. That's why they proposed this. So, if the Players say no Ambrosie can turn around & say, "See, it wasn't the owners who cancelled. Blame the Players." I think that's been the plan all along. And the Ambrosie Fan Boyz will be drinking the koolaid all day long still singing his praises.
  12. You guys who love Ambrosie can try to blow as much sunshine into this as you want. The guy is useless as Commissioner. He makes Jeff Orridge look like Pete Rozelle.
  13. How many Grey Cups has Glenn won as a starter? Outstanding Player Awards? How many teams did he put on his back in the playoffs?
  14. Once an Elk always an elk.
  15. Nope. That name is seriously being considered as the new name for Washington. https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=nfl+washington+considering+the+name+red+wolves&&view=detail&mid=273DDF8B8FACF0CD5820273DDF8B8FACF0CD5820&&FORM=VRDGAR&ru=%2Fvideos%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dnfl%20washington%20considering%20the%20name%20red%20wolves%26qs%3Dn%26form%3DQBVR%26sp%3D-1%26pq%3Dnfl%20washington%20considering%20the%20name%20red%20wolves%26sc%3D0-46%26sk%3D%26cvid%3DB72E52059BB94C9BA4BE0087BF4D9315
  16. It's 2020 so why not flood Rogers Centre?
  17. I understand Washington will be renaming their team the Red Wolves. The Grey Wolves & Black Wolves are upset. Black Wolves Matter are planning a mass wolf demonstration at Washington's training camp next week in protest.
  18. Truthfully, I've reached a point where I really don't care if Discovery comes back or not. The plot lines are confusing & hard to follow. There's going to be a Captain Pike series which we hopefully see before 2028. It's been 16 months since the last episode of Discovery. Now they're in the 31st century. That akin to a Vikings ship going into the future to take on a modern destroyer. If they never came back would that series really be missed? Especially with such wide time gaps between seasons??? Trek fans used to ***** about Enterprise not having enough firepower to take on the aliens they encountered. Especially their first season. Now we have Discovery with a thousand year old technology taking on civilizations in the far future. And yet somehow Discovery will still find a way to win.
  19. I'm just wondering if the promoter had been sued? Or the stadium for the goalpost fiasco?
  20. They want to keep the EE.
  21. Big deal. CBS hasn't even shown Season 3. It's been nearly 2 years. Total BS. Wait 2 years for a 10 episode season. Who cares?
  22. I can't get excited about a cartoon.
