What you see with MBT is what you get. At 29, he won't get much better either. In order for the Argos to improve in the standings they need far better quarterbacking than they got last night. Can't see the Argos not going forward from their 2 qbs & start with a clean slate next year. Only 9900 at the game. What an embarrassment.

He never wanted to leave Edmonton. Even though he found success with the Argos I think that trade from the Esks not only blindsided but hurt him a great deal. Witness his very emotional speech last night to the crowd. This guy has Eskimo green running through his veins. Not Argo blue.

Here's the structure: One player (qb) will get between $250-$600K. That won't be a CFL qb getting the high end. It'll be an NFL backup qb that is well known. The other pay structures are explained in the linked article. https://theathleteshub.org/xfls-player-salary-structure-explained/

That XFL money wouldn't be as much as CFL money even with the exchange.

Dane Evans had his moments tonight. Does he unseat Masoli as the starter next year?

Ancient Chinese Proverb: A rabbit doesn't poke a sleeping bear with a stick. Unless he has a sports car revved up & running with the drivers doors open so the rabbit can split.

Looked run of the mill to me. Nice they recognized him, though.

Ricky Ray is gaunt!

They're spoiled & entitled because they haven't missed the playoffs in 15 years. They always roll up 12, 13, 14 or better win seasons. They may not win a lot of Grey Cups but they sure clean up during the regular season. What their fanbase needs is 5 straight seasons of losing & by losing I mean 2-16 seasons to teach the real mouthy ones some humility. Fans don't go to games anymore not just because their stadium is a dump but because it's boring to watch them win. They've forgotten what it's like to lose. And then there's the media here. The Global radio station that covers the teams games has just an arrogant host who likes to mock other teams or says stupid things. He can be an ******* at times.

MBT doing a great imitation of a statue.

I can sorta understand Adams mouthing off as he's inexperienced being a starter & things are going his way right now. He has a swelled head. But Bowman? STFU old man. Wonder how you keep playing so long when you should have retired years ago?

Harper isn't even running for office & Trudeau along with Wideleft still talk about him. It's like watching a horror flick in a theatre when you were a kid & it scared you so much you had the blankets pulled over you in bed while in the dark. Then years later when you were an adult you watched the same film on tv & you wonder why you were so afraid in the first place. The movie wasn't scary at all. Posters like Wideleft would hate Harper no matter what. They'd hate anyone who leads the Conservative party.

Such is the Canadian media today.

We have a racist Prime Minister who gropes women for good measure. Nothing you can say now about the Conservatives tops this.

Nice post. Appreciate it. Yeah, let's hope in a little over 2 months from now we can have the best off season since 1990.

Just like the Democrats in the States. If they had a moderate leader who cares about jobs & talks a language most people relate to without getting into the planet is dying stuff or The Green New Deal then Trump would get turfed. But like the Conservatives in Canada who can't find a leader in the center political perspective neither can the Democrats find that leader to cover the middle ground. The one who benefits is Trudeau up here & Trump in the US.

However, we're talking about communism. The Third Reich & Hitler's reign as a Republic for example, was worse than Stalin's leading up to WW2. Stalin then used the outcome of the war to flex his muscles & took in all those Eastern Euro countries under his umbrella.

I think they go hand in hand. The problem with communism is if you have a dictator like Stalin the longer he is in power, the more powerful & entrenched he becomes. In a true democracy, he can be voted out.

One now far worse than the other.

If the Conservatives had a leader who wasn't hung up on LGBTQ rights or same sex marriage they'd clean up. Why they had to choose an unknown social conservative to lead the party into the election is beyond me. I'm glad Mad Max didn't win but Scheer could have done a lot more than he has done in bringing his politics more center right than staying a social conservative. I think most Canadians could care less if someone is gay or if they want to marry. Or concerned about LGBTQ rights. They should have the same rights as anybody else. What people do with their lives should be up to them as long as they don't bother anybody else.

I appreciate your answer as I didn't have a sense of where you stood. Thanks.

C'mon down...

And I may never see another Grey Cup in my lifetime if this team can't do it so I WANT THEM TO WIN. Some of you here have never experienced the satisfaction of being able to shut the **** up every other CFL fanbase by saying your team is the champion. I remember that 84 championship feeling the best over 1988 & 90. Until then, 22 years between championships. Beat the Lions at BC Place in the West final. Killed the Ti Cats in the GC in Edmonton. It was a great feeling & I want to experience it again at least one more time before I check out.

If Scheer had done black face the Liberals would have roasted him alive & calling him a racist. I love the fact that Trudeau is finally being exposed as a hypocritical virtue signaller. A Do What I Say Not What I Do politician.

Until Putin arrived. Took him a few years to show his true colours.
