As opposed to Fox? Hannity?? O'Reilly? Ailes?

Our defense has to come & play hard or we lose. Hurl better play well & not be a liability out there like he was in 2015.

They've already weakened Lesnar so for him to lose again he'd seem like Rusev. A so called "monster" who has become a mid carder & has virtually disappeared,

Yes, 180 degree turn. He may have saved the Argos but then he refused to spend any money on the team & cut the budget which means marketing was non existent. Doing the same thing in BC. He & Skulsky needs to permanently go for the good of the Lions,

Pfft. Braley. The guy has grinded 3 franchises into the ground. Hamilton, Toronto & BC.

The pic I saw of him he kinda looks like Vincent Kennedy McMahon. I'd love it if he said to Glenn Johnson, "YOU"RE FIIRRRRRED!!!!!"

I like the fact he is a former player who understands the game & is a successful businessman running companies from the boardrooms. Unlike the guy he takes over from. Orridge always looked like guy who would rather be at a wine & cheese party than a football game.

So, they let Carmella actually win the MITB ladder match. Too funny.

Well then, there's always Pavs.

What injury does Richards have at the moment?

Guys are much bigger now & they train year round. I mentioned the Ken Ploen era but today those guys would be totally outsized & outmatched by a hundred pounds. But back in the day the Bomber offensive line under Bud Grant may have been the best of its particular era in comparison to the other 8 teams back then. However, I don't think Hamilton was too far behins. There was a reason the Bombers played in multiple Grey Cups with the Ti Cats from 57-65. Both had great offensive & defensive lines.

Chuck was a great blocker but he also was a body builder. The guy was jacked. Problem was he never incorporated a lot of stretching into his off season & in season workouts. He had a terrible time with his hamstrings pulling them on multiple occasions. The Bombers used to work out at a place on Provencher Blvd called the Fit Stop back in the late 70's. The Infamous Brian Jack had a little store on the second floor where he sold health drinks & supplements. Brian Herosian managed the place. I lifted with Brian a few times back then. Players like Randy Hallsall, Liebrock & Gary Roslowich worked out there. Liebrocks legs were like tree trunks. Hallsall was nuts. He was damned scary. Roid rage.

Oh yeah, I could talk a lot about past offensive lines with you but I think I'd bore a lot of the younger posters here. We had some great players pass thru here wearing Blue & Gold who were outstanding.

Played outdoors in a cold weather city. Have to like that.

For a third rounder, yeah.

Note to WBBFan, I wouldn't say this is the best O Line ever. There were some great ones during the Ken Ploen, Don Jonas, Dieter Brock & Tom Clements eras. Let's just say it's one of the best we've had in a long, long time.

I look at our offensive line & the strength that it is. Then I look at Calgary which is held together by band aids, knee, back & shoulder braces. From what I see, that entire unit is going to have a tough year.

Well, it helps the goalie to know that if he whiffs on one or two bad ones, his team will bail him out. That's what the Oilers did for Fuhr.

Fuhr admitted he did. I have a hard time thinking Gretzky was a part of it. No one knows & no one will tell, anyways.

Nah, their firepower won them games. Not Fuhr letting in a winning goal.

Everyone wants to play Canadians on the line. It doesn't work. Historically, a minimum of 2 & usually 3 Americans have played on CFL lines until the past 25-30 years when the Esks started an all Canadian line & other teams followed. Now, it seems to be going back to playing Canadians at positions other than offensive lines.

Hajrallahu, he always seems to be involved in cluster..... on special teams.

The excuse will now be It's TOO HOT!

I don't ever recall a Nissan ad on TSN during CFL games that wasn't annoyingly bad with the music. To make it worse, they play them a dozen times mostly back to back.

I think it always did. Except for the Oilers in the 80's who just outgunned everyone with their offensive firepower. Fuhr could let in five goals, they'd score 6.
