I remember Khari Jones father used to post as well. We had some interesting private conversations about football in general. What it was like for him as a Dad having a son who played D1 NCAA football at UC Davis & the CFL. He was interested in my son who at the time was going to NCAA football camps as a high school qb hoping to get noticed. He was a nice man but I lost track of him once Khari left the Bombers & finished his career with the Stampeders.

What were his posts about?
You have to ask?

Man, I could go waaaaaay back on this one. The 1965 Western Final. Kenny Ploen hits flanker Ken Nielsen for the winning score vs the Stamps at McMahon Stadium. A 109 yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter! I still remember Jack Wells with the call & Ed Kotowich doing analysis on CKY AM. Man, that was exciting. Sorta like yesterday with the Vikings.

Yeah, is he still doing time? With the Canadian justice system, I'm sure he was out years ago.

They could have pursued him harder had they wanted to. I guess we didn't.

was it Brian Jack, and was he carrying something over his shoulder in a body bag?
I knew Brian Jack. He was the manager of the store upstairs at the Provencher Ave Fit Stop where all the Bombers worked out at that time.

Pink to sing the US National Anthem at the Super Bowl. Does the NFL really want it televised? Trump is licking his massively oversized jowls over that.

What do you expect when kids don't fail anymore? All those commercials warning parents not to let their kids eat detergent have now gone to waste. The damage is unprecedented.

The CFL needs to cash in on this video bonanza.

It’s different when you’re in control vs your opponent. When running into the turnbuckles you control your bump.
In many stiff kicks there is no whiplash effect. For example kicking a seated opponent. I really think it was the whiplash here.
For sure. but still it looks like her neck was screwed up before & that's why the kick did the damage.

Being compared to Edge’s injury. Which would really suck. She’s very young. Maybe in time she can come back.
As for the spot. It’s tough. Paige has her back to Sasha so she can’t see the kick coming. Sasha has to be really light and careful. But she’s striking the “meaty” part of the back flat footed.
But paige already had a bad neck. To me it looks like the whiplash effect might have done the damage.
Sasha has hurt people and herself. And is considered reckless. So...watch out for her getting buried.
Paige is such a pro that she kept trying to work. You can see her shaking both arms as they went numb and still tries to continue to work.
In fairness to Banks, that kick isn't any worse than being thrown hard into the turnbuckle or coming off some aerial move like coming off the top rope or wrestlers landing on a group of wrestlers outside the ring. I will say that the kicks you see in today's matches are ridiculous. The Japanese wrestler who injured Brian Kendrick & the other injuries suffered. Kicks to the head should be banned. There's a guy in NXT who all he does is kick. Wrestlers are getting injured.

Well, exciting.

Paige's wrestling career with the WWE is over due to a neck injury. I saw the video of how she was injured. Paige was kicked in the back by Sasha Banks. While it was a somewhat stiff kick, it wasn't that hard. If that caused her injury then she had no business being in the ring in the first place as it was inevitable she'd get hurt again. On social media, some fans are harshly criticizing Banks for kicking Paige that way but again, it was hardly her fault. Anyway, WWE won't allow her to compete so her career may be over permanently.

Why not? When Walters signed Moore there were rumblings that it was an overpayment
First of all, Moore got a lot of money but $175,000 isn't going crazy. Second, who else did they overpay? Those 14 & 15 teams were brutal.

I don't think there is a receiver in the league worth $200,000, I'd set the upper limit for that position at $175,000. I'd also reset the clock on QB salaries and make the max payout $350,000 so there could be more money for other players. If they don't like it they can find another pro football league to play in.
If a player can get top dollar then good for him. However, when other positions go wanting because the team can't afford to pay the players already there because of it then that's just stupidity on the part of the GM. It sounds like Sunderland will be doing just that. .

Moore was 180K and Dressler was 175K.
Can't compare that to what the Esks are paying Reilly, Walker & Bowman.

As Trump has claimed - he actually could shoot someone in Times Square, and his wide-eyed, deluded, and bigoted base would support it. OK, but what is the excuse for so called "moderates" in the Republican party, to continue to defend the indefensible, while aiding and abetting this madness? Other that of course, using Don Trump, to help push their agendas through.
Wait! Paul Ryan has finally weighed in..........saying Trump's comments were "unhelpful." Way to step up to the plate, there.......
Lack of morals on one end.....and moral cowardliness, on the other.
What a disappointment Ryan is. A couple of years ago, I thought he'd have made a great President but no more. He & the rest of the GOP are spineless cowards. They could do something yet they don't.

Probably not unusual for any team in the CFL to have 20% of their cap assigned to three or four players. I think Bowman is renegotiated or failing that, released.
I don't know about that. Having so much money tied up in just 3 players isn't a great way to manage the salary cap. What about the other pieces of the puzzle with the Esks that needed to be signed? Looks like they'll go elsewhere. I hope this isn't what Walters does. I can't see John Hufnagel doing that with the Stamps. Or Wally in BC when he was GM.

Just fix the PI & IC rules. The way they are it stinks. Defenders should be allowed to fight for the ball. The way it stands now, a defrnder can be called for IC if a receiver deliberately runs into them. They have to allow more physicality. Keep the coaches challenges to one each per game.

Oh, so its ok to heap blame on him but completely ignore all the positives that are on the defense? Kind of a myopic way to view things, no? There is no denying we caused opposition to turn the ball over better then anyone else in the last 2 years.. we also increased our sack and pressure totals.. Its not like Hall was a complete failure.. Maybe the reason he is still here and it doesn't make sense to us is because at the end of the day, we are only fans and have no clue what transpires behind closed doors or the causes of the failures on our defense.
Heap blame? He is the DC. The man in charge. He'd get praise if his defense played great & criticism when they didn't so it goes both ways. Doug Brown being an experienced DL knows what goes on when it comes to team dynamics. I guess the question I have is if there was freelancing & rogue play by certain players to bring glory onto themselves then why wasn't it dealt with swiftly by Hall & O'Shea? Some benchings should have happened. If it continued then player releases. I think Brown was asking the same thing & pointing out the lack of accountability by the players. Why didn't the coaches do something?

dont you have have huge concerns every off-season though? lol.
and I don't get this, just because other teams do things one way... we are clearly doing things wrong and heading for a nose dive into the depths of hell?
you do realize we just came off of back to back double digit wins and are clearly trending upwards?
I know that. Thank you btw.

Yeah, I like that. I'm all for signing Durant. Davis is a slug whose had 3 years to figure it out. LeFevour. Is. Just. Awful. Get rid of him. Having a short yardage qb with no passing skills is just too much to sacrifice in the long term.
