  1. Picked one. It won't let me pick another.
  2. Debating this position is going to be a lot of fun.
  3. I have a hunch... a strong hunch.... that Greg Battle wins this one so I'm going to vote for Phil Minnick. I saw him play & when he was healthy he was dominant in much the same way Wayne Harris was with the Stampeders. They played against each other at the time. Harris played on a better team during his playing days & had a more high profile career than Minnick. Harris was the CFL's version of D i c k Butkus & although he didn't have the size of Butkus he played 20 lbs heavier & had a similar mean streak to the Bears linebacker. Minnick was a bigger physical linebacker than Harris. He played nasty & was a tacking machine. He didn't have a lot of defensive talent around him most years & a lot of times he seemed to do it all on his own. It's too bad the CFL didn't keep tackling stats back then. It's also sad that most modern fans don't know of Phil today. Playing on very bad teams & his knee injury saw to that.
  4. Rest In Peace William Miller. A very good running back during the Dieter Brock & Ray Jauch era. Miller put up two one thousand yard seasons in 1980 & 82. He died of cancer at age 62. https://www.cflaa.ca/remembering-william-miller/?fbclid=IwAR0wU_qdmu3AszwZ7vEvcmDRJm5t9fkLw1AGpf2UPXUD4nAkzmCOpeIBSvw
  5. Why else would he leave Hamilton?
  6. No kidding. He may have got some insider info that the money has been allocated for their stadium.
  7. Jim Barker back in the CFL with Hamilton & Eric Tillman out.
  8. You know you'll see green at the Heritage Classic.
  9. How does this guy keep getting more chances?
  10. Gene was the best in the business back in his AWA & early WWE days back in the 70's & 80's. Every interview he did with Randy savage was memorable as it was with Hogan. He could even bring out the best in mic slugs like Ken Patera & Paul Ordorff. He & Bobby Heenan together were priceless.
  11. Hoping Blue Bloods makes it to Season 10. It should but the end is near I'd say.
  12. Why? Ovechkin has played in 9 all star games & plays hard every game. If he wants to rest at his age by paying the financial penalty then let him. He has nothing more to prove to anyone. Why should he be penalized further?
  13. Climbers who jump generally fall.
  14. Well, that's not saying much. Never happen.
  15. Watch the talk of getting an NHL franchise start now...
  16. Launched in 1977 when I was 22. Doesn't seem strange to me.
  17. He'll never get an NFL HC job. He'll stay in Regina.
  18. The best unis in the league bar none.
  19. The Riders are incapable of doing anything on their own. They have to raid other teams players, coaches, scouts & managers. That's all the Riders organization knows how to do.
  20. At least the players could sign legal & binding contracts. Unlike today.
