I scored the winning touchdown during the 1982 RRC intramural flag football championship game on a 5 yard pass & run catch from our qb Harry "Hot Streets" Hannigan. (He was big Chicago fan back in the day). We had aspirations of playing in the NFL but there was no NFL interest back in those days. Then things changed over the years, RRC players attended NFL Combines, scouts started watching our games, some had FA tryouts with teams down south. A couple of guys almost got drafted the past few seasons. Then the scandal hit & changed everything. Tragic.

Man, why are we criticizing someone who gave a legit take on Strevler?.What, it's better to read a 2 sentence response from Skunk talking about his gay man crush on Big Chris. Give me TrueBlue4ever's take than the **** we get from Skunk every ******* day.

Certainly we need GMs that are much more professional. Not guys like Jones who make up the rules as they go along & cheat. Guys that are qualified to do the job.

Regarding league cancers. We need more John Hufnagels & Kyle Walters & less Chris Jones & Roy Shivers types running teams. The CFL has to be more professional than it is with upper management.

He'd play RB & slot. An NFL team would move him around.

Muchacho is back!! He's back.

Whoa.

Great post, Just goes on & on.

And in the CFL having 2 qbs on the field simultaneously playing for one team is illegal which makes no sense to me when Streveler could have lined up as a slot or running back & be fed the ball. The Grand Poobahs in this league who make the rules need their heads examined for not allowing talent to come to the fore.

Don't agree. With 10 episodes, they can't tell a proper story as they are rushed & details overlooked with multiple things going on at once which gets confusing. With a 22 episode season, things can s l o w... d o w n... & these stories can be told. To me, these short seasons & having to wait a year or more for the next is a major downfall. Star Trek was once known to be able to weave a story to the viewers. Now it's all about action sequences & special effects shock & awe.

Just because he's wanted back doesn't mean he's a starter which you imply. If he starts we win 8 games tops. As a backup used in certain packages he's valuable. But that's it. I don't see the Bombers eyeing him as a starter.

A Pike series would do well. It would be anticipated by fans.

Bridgewater was on the roster & played well when Brees was out. Expect him to sign as a FA elsewhere.

I can't see many more teams being added after Halifax (if it even goes thru) so if it does then I think the ratio gets lowered to 6 or 5 & will stay there.

Hill isn't really a qb either with the Saints. He also lines up at FB & Slot. The Saints just try to find ways to get him the ball.

That's what I said but it was conveniently ignored.

I've been 39 since 1994.

The ratio will never go away. It's here to stay.

At least I gave alternatives as to why getting rid of the ratio would be a bad idea. You didn't with your opinion. If you don't want this to continue then quit trying to put in the last word. Let it go.

I NEVER would have paid those prices normally but I wanted to try it so I bit the bullet & despite my misgivings I paid what they wanted. But never again. Eight pieces of chicken, 4 biscuits, order of fries & gravy. $34.00!!!

Arguing with a kid? Oh, I wish. By this time next year I could be collecting my pension, if I want to. You haven't said anything to sway my opinion. You haven't proved your point. If you want me to change my mind, then convince me why I should. Throw me a bone. You can't. If eliminating the ratio was a such good idea it would have been done by now. It hasn't been because the negatives of doing so would outweigh anything positive.

Some bias? More like complete bias. Very few Canadians would be starting in the CFL if any, if there are no ratio rules. So, you'll get your wish with no Canadian qbs. As well as no other positions played by Canadians as well.

More likely catching some rays in some place warm. He's nearly 30.

Sure, tell an American coach who has spent little or no time in this country as a coach with no ratio to adhere to on his team that a football player from Dauphin, MB is better than a football player from Lincoln, Nebraska. Where Americans have better coaching & competition they'll keep a Canadian over an American.

So, on a CFL team, we'll have 36 Americans, 7 Canadians & 2 Internationals. Yeah, that'll grow the game for sure in this country.
