You just gave Tburg a reason to be waiting in the weeds.

Mostly Burnham & Arceneaux.

I'd need PROOF you'd actually have something to say.

Don't drink & drive swimming with a pool noodle.

Jennings over the course of a season isn't very good as he has shown that he can't string a series of good games together but in a one game scenario he could get hot.

Jacquie, this is a fan forum website where we give our opinions & take part in discussions. This is not the Winnipeg Free Press & you're not Bill Bradlee so [please stop demanding things you know none of us can provide. Tell you what, if you want proof then why don't you do some journalistic digging yourself & come up with the facts.

No, I don't have proof & why would I when I'm not a member of the media like an investigative reporter, an accountant, the police or a CFL official? But I doubt there's no way an owner like the Wettenhall's wouldn't have known where every penny went on the Als football operations side.

This was a CFL decision as it is stated. However, they would have had to have known what was going on. Seems likely they would have. . This was going on under Andrew's watch.

I like Adams. I don't know if he's capable of being a long term starter or a championship qb but he is perfectly suited for the CFL game. Hopefully Khari doesn't bail on him the first sign of trouble. Compared to Antonio Pipkin who has all the measurables like height, arm strength & athleticism but who just loses every game he plays. Adams gives the Als a better chance to win IMO.

The death of local sports in the paper & television has a lot to do with dwindling attendance as well. Before, games would be set up by some talented beat writers, columnists & tv reporters in all CFL cities. They hyped players & rivalries. You knew a home game back in the day was a big deal. Well, most of these guys are now gone having retired or laid off. Now, all games are on television. CFL home games barely get any attention on local tv sports anymore as sportscasts are 7 minutes long. Today, local sports mean nothing to Bell & Rogers. Neither do the CFL teams.

Funny how the Als don't want to comment on why Reed was let go but a series of "leaks" to the media has laid out what was going on in with him in Montreal to the point he was an evil scoundrel. The team said it was concerned about legal action if they divulged why Reed was fired yet found no problem having a mole telling the guy from RDS the problems so he could have a tweet storm. I don't like Kavis Reed but this is gutless .

I'd say probably not. The CFL needs the Als to succeed. No way they'll weaken the team by releasing players or fine them as the new owners would have to pay. I think you'll see a Mike Kelly quote, "It's a non issue. It's been handled internally".

Chris Jones is still a great option, as well.

I've heard ratings are down. You may be right & I hope you are.

Trump?

The problem is tv sports are driven by advertising so if these games don't attract the numbers or demographics advertisers want, they won't sponsor so less revenue for TSN means less revenue ultimately for the CFL.

Same. We can say that, too.

Coach has final say on everything.

We can say the team played badly if we lose & no one should take offense as it would be true.

I'm just going to leave this alone.

Well, I'm certainly not the only one here who name calls. When Skunk makes a statement that makes little or no sense & continues to do so then should I or anyone else just say, "Thanks for your input?"

I do think if the league does a financial audit & they find improprieties then the Als should be subject to penalties like the other teams would be. However, your point is valid. Would the CFL penalize the new owners of the Als? Probably not.

If true, I don't see how the Als can claim that they took care of the circumventing the cap problem by firing Reed. He still cheated & therefore the Als should be subjected to whatever financial & player penalty that is appropriate. What message does it send to teams that don't cheat that nothing will happen to an organization if it does?

If they used QB Efficiency then he'd be Number 1. They used passing yards instead.
