  1. Injuries are part of the game. They lost Walker who is one player. The rest of the receiving corps stayed intact. Calgary was competitive until they lost their fourth starting receiver. What happened in Calgary was a legit reason for their downfall but they have issues elsewhere on that team as well. You can't point to the Walker injury & say that's why they missed the playoffs. Besides, Edmonton's defense has been awful this year.
  2. Good for Dunigan not going for the Rod Black bait that the bad 2nd half of the season was due to Derel Walker's injury.
  3. Guess that is what every other HC is saying to their starters who are sitting then? But I get your point. Disagree, though.
  4. Nope. back in the days of 32 man rosters all kinds of players started other positions but also kicked & punted. Example, Don Jonas led the league in passing & scoring as a qb/kicker in 1971. He won the Schenley Award in 1971 as the CFL's MOP.
  5. Williams with the spectacular catch for the Esks TD. Reilly can do that all day long. No one cares anymore. He chucked it all year long & they still missed the playoffs. Ha. Ha. Ha.
  6. Meaningless to Maas? Sure, that's why he's dressing his starters who will play all day. A big eff you to the backups on the Esks by their HC. He's coaching to save his job.
  7. Depreciating asset. But he does have replacement coverage for knees & hips.
  8. Should they also find a buyer for Wettenhall as well?
  9. I think he actually is a qb wizard as a qb coach. But not as a HC.
  10. Things were bad under Trestman in Toronto this season. He became a real control freak as well as a bit of a tyrant. Including the dressing down of a MLSE employee that was so severe that he quit. Marc's personal life was obviously taking a toll but if Drew Edwards story is correct & he's a reliable reporter with good sources maybe Marc should have taken a leave of absence to deal with the tragedies in his life. Anyway, his behaviour & the performance of the Argos cost him his job. http://3downnation.com/2018/11/03/seven-reasons-argos-fired-marc-trestman/
  11. The other two players were basically the entire team by themselves. Burden set a CFL record for rushing in a single season in 1975 (since broken) while Edwards dominated similarly in 1977 rushing for over 1,500 yards. Both players didn't have a qb like Reilly on their team. Burden had Joe Pisarcik while Edwards had Jimmy Jones. They put their teams on their back & carried them. Reilly struggled without Derel Walker & especially after Duke Williams was hurt.
  12. All that just so The Classic could segue the Poop signing in there as face rub. Rider fans. Pfft.
  13. It's called work. I don't have the money those Sheiks, Princes & wrestlers have.
  14. Hunter always made it about himself. That's what you get when you main event & get into the ring once or twice a year at his age & tries to recapture his youth. Shawn Micheals better think twice about a comeback. Same with the Undertaker & Kane.
  15. I think it's a travesty that guy was beaten out by Trevor Harris. Real shame.
  16. He sucked the last half of the season. He doesn't deserve that award.
  17. don't you just hate Jones, Murphy & the Riders? Total dipshit move by that organization. Why do you think they signed him? No way he plays on that line in Saskabush. They want to pick his brain about our defensive systems. So much for going home & signing with the AAFL.
  18. They want Mexican players as a pipeline for talent. (Oops, dirty word those pipelines)…. maybe if they can develop them they will be players up here. Makes more sense to me than playing in China or somewhere else where the chances of players ever coming from there is negligible. Wait'll those Mexicans see November in this country. LOL.
  19. Stupid is as stupid does... https://www.tsn.ca/willis-apologizes-to-ambrosie-after-critical-tweets-1.1202357
