It's only been 2 days... No one has won anything yet. There are still some very good players not signed. Premature topic.

Talk is WWE will be ending the brand-specific PPV's and go back to dual-branded (ie. entire roster on every PPV). I imagine it wont mean the end of the split though as they want to keep multiple touring groups.
Smackdown is so weak they really can't support their own PPV's.

So Star Trek Discovery on a hiatus until 2019 from everything I've read. How can they build momentum by killing it for an entire year?

Right and the court of public opinion just cost this man his political career.
Reputation be damned. It's all worth it, right? We all know every victim was an actual victim. No one has lied. It's all about the truth. Not a jilted lover or someone they wanted to seek revenge upon or extortion. Accusers need to go to the police & let them lay charges before accusing someone in the media of sexual misconduct. I hope CTV & the reporter are sued for multi millions & the reporter loses his/her job destroying their career. Was the woman paid to do it? Promise to be paid? To me, this was a political set up to disrupt the provincial election to make sure Patrick Brown would never be Premier & the Liberals get back in.

I hope Iso is right but I feel Henoc will always be driven by $$$.... Here's hoping we have it.
Money means nothing when teams have no intention of ever paying. Just to lure a player in to get their name on a contract. I hope Muamba has figured out that a contract in the CFL is not worth the paper it's written on. I'm hoping Muamba values trust now as well.

Actually, I did that once. It took an apology plus and extra $12,000 per annum. In retrospect, it was a mistake and my supervisor turned out to be a predator, so I quit again, even after he was fired.
Popp won't apologize & he'd cut him again id he wanted. All GMs are like that but why go back to play for him again? Money means nothing as if a team doesn't want to pay a promised bonus they don't pay. They cut. So, I don't know if money means a lot as Muamba hasn't seen money in the past that was contractually promised.

A judicious application of money soothes a lot of ruffled feathers.
Trust. If your boss fired you then a year later offered you another job would you trust him to never do it again?

I've been curious ever since this Henoc stuff broke, about your thoughts... Yiu were very vocally angry at Henoc and his agent over the whole tour thing..
I was. I think a lot were. Since then, he's been lied to & cut twice & I think that arrogant chip he was carrying has been knocked off his shoulder. I'd welcome him now.

Montreal?
Why would he go back where he was screwed? Toronto? Jim Popp was the one who screwed him. The Bombers are the only ones who respected him.

I'd love to see him here, but I think Muamba ends up in TO.
Henoc would be wise to remember what CFL team drafted him & we're the only team treated him really well when he played here.

It sincerely worries me that we can't. I really feel like people massively underrate how automatic Fever was last year. I know it's a little thing, but seriously, the guy was damn good...
Not enough reason to keep him on the roster. He can't actually play qb in a game situation. He would take up a developmental spot so he had to go.

It took decades to get curling into the Olympics. How did this abomination make it so fast?

I wish the title of this thread was SHOULD Walters Go All Out At MLB? Instead of Will. How the hell do we know what Walters will do?

I thought so too a bit. More so, I thought it was unnecessary. If you're just going to grow more, dont make a big deal about killing your entire supply.
They also need to knock off the facade of "below decks". I think this was likely a change when Fuller left. originally they said the show would focus more on junior officers like the TNG episode Below Decks. But firstly, that isnt the case. The Captain, First Officer, Admiral are all focuses. We're on the bridge constantly.
The issue is, when deciding that your main Doctor isnt the CMO and your main engineer isnt the Chief Engineer, you create problems. Where the heck are they? This was especially glaring during the briefing room scene. Why assemble all these junior officers but not have the CMO, Chief Engineer and even tactical officer (Ash was but surely he's been replaced).
I wont break the balls over it now. But season 2 needs to reconcile this by casting a CMO and Chief Engineer.
Hopefully Lorca is back.

Holy ****!! Unfortunately not surprised. Budget may be decent up here but they're a joke in the US. I used them last fall on a trip to Portland for US Thanksgiving. Their rental office is a 15 minute shuttle ride from the airport. All the others are in the Portland Airport. They wouldn't do an inspection with me when I picked up my car. Just, "Oh, don't worry about that scratch. Don't worry about that dent. We won't charge you." Like really? Then they didn't have a proper inspection form so I had to write all the damage down I saw on a piece of paper. My piece of scrap paper that I had. I used my phone to take a picture of every dent & scratch I found when I took the car. It was late evening, dark & raining. The parking lot I picked the car up at didn't have proper lighting so it was extremely dim. I had a hard time seeing any damage. I felt that I was being scammed. That they could accuse me of damaging the rental when the damage was already there. The Budget agent told me to hang on to the rental agreement with my damage report attached FOR A FEW MONTHS. A few months??? Last time I ever use them. Stay away from Budget in the US.

Well, part of the problem with previous OLs was the lack of receivers who could stretch the field. Teams could keep more defenders in the box when they played the Bombers.
Receivers have nothing to do with the ability to block. Either you can or can't.

How can the Riders sign all these players & be under the cap? Today I read that now they're in the running to sign Adarius Bowman. How can they sign every expensive veteran player out there??

Funny how quickly we forget how weak our OL was on the blind side... since 2007?
And how crappy our boundary DBs were since... Swaggerville?
Bond and Heath leaving... meh.... right??
Yeah, we have replacements. Who needs Bond, right? #famouslastwords

Until Couture plays multiple complete games competently at OG I'm not sold on the concept that he is a reliable backup at this point. We've seen too many Natl. O-lineman with better size come and go over the years who did not achieve success in the CFL despite having multiple years to develop as understudies. Forgive me if I'm a deeply scarred cynic with a bad case of Drew Willy happy feet and still haunted by Max Hall's infernal pain but as I recall, there was "what's his name?", "what's his name?" and that other "what's his name?", all Natls. with the size of Goliath that never amounted to the value of an over-ripe hill of beans.
How Colin can make a statement that Couture is somehow ready with virtually no playing time is hard to understand. All I know our OL sucked until Bond started & now it looks like management has made the decision to replace him. If we start an inferior player in his place & Nicholls gets injured then that is on Walters for not managing the salary cap properly.

Yeah Huff is no fool. He wasn't an SMS casualty by any means...they have no reason to cut salaries at moment.
It was a salary cap move, Especially trading Hughes for 2 fourth round picks in the next 2 CFL Drafts. Here are two quotes from yesterday's Calgary Herald. The first is Stamps GM John Hufnagel & the second from Charleston Hughes:
"It was a tough day at the office - no question about it. Charleston has been a soldier for 10 years. He's a big part of our winning ways but it's the salary cap era that we're in & I have depth at the defensive end position. A very difficult decision & we just tried to make the right choice. What's the right choice? What's the wrong choice? We couldn't afford as many as we had & one had to go. It could have been one of the other two."
"I knew that there were going to be decisions that were going to have to be made. That was a stress the whole year about cap & stuff. But based on how I play & what I bring to the table, I didn't think I was going to be that player to be traded."

Thanks for that.
