I think the writers & actors strike had a lot to do with it. People no longer care.

One thing I notice is how unhappy Jalen Hurts is all the time. Whenever the camera focuses on him when he's on the field, he's constantly shaking his head no in a very subtle way. You'd never notice it sitting in the stands but up close he just gives off these negative vibes. I think a lot of his teammates have given up on him.

Hey Zach!!!! Zach!!!

Matt Patricia for one.

It was hard to dislike or pull for one team over the other in tonight's game. Or Stafford over Goff. Or vice versa.

When we get our injured stars back & have a nice rest period over the All Star break then the Jets can concentrate on perhaps being the Number 1 team in the NHL.

No idea if i could hack it or not but I'd give it a shot to see. The money is just too good not to try. If I was 45 years younger.

Yeah, I was wondering when Flacco's bubble would burst. It was inevitable as he's been playing at too high a level. Just like a guy whose parachute won't open. the thud he'd make hitting the ground would be deafening.

Belichek's also a miserable bastard. He & Darryl Sutter would be good friends.

If I was in my 20's, I'd go. Other qbs have done it. Jake Maier & Trevor Harris. Maier especially is tenuos. If Calgary can find someone better then he'll be gone. Maier is 6 feet & 227 lbs. He can't even bother to play in shape which is half his problem. The guy is a pylon in the pocket. Maier should be 20 lbs lighter.

Go work on an oil rig platform in the North Sea for 2 months. About $50,000 a month in salary on average.

I'd be on the same level tech savvy wise as Davy Crockett would be if he was alive.

The only reason we can see in Canada it is that Peacock doesn't sell subscriptions outside of the US.

Agree.

Pro athletes are so out of touch when it comes to money. Except in the CFL.

Tonight's NFL Wild Card game between the Kansas City Chiefs & the Miami Dolphins can only be seen on CBS streaming service Peacock in the US. Apparently, Peacock paid the NFL $180 million dollars to televise this game exclusively. Meanwhile, Peacock is taking orders so people can watch the game today. My concern is that in a few years more & more games will be on streaming services they no longer will be on "free" network tv. That the Super Bowl itself will eventually be streamed only. Roger Goodell doesn't care about fans. Just making money.

If we reduced Canadians or eliminated the ratio then the cost of players salaries would be greatly reduced. It always bothered me seeing someone like Jeremiah Masoli get pummelled because the Canadian guard blocking an American DT is nothing more than a pylon. He makes more $$ than an American would in his place.

I didn't get married until I was almost 32. I had my fun.

Yeah, my days at the U of M with parties, beer bashes & socials. Then being single after I graduated & started working full time. Spent a lot of time in the bars. I have more than a few stories I won't ever tell.

In the CFL? Most guys make no real money playing in the CFL. General Managers dupe their players by deferring payments into bonuses at the middle or end of January & then cut them so they don't have to pay. So many players are on one year deals it doesn't matter if players are appreciating or depreciating as they only last a year with a team & move on. Most players have to find off season jobs. There's a handful of guys making 90% of the money at 3 or 4 positions like QB, DE or WR. Unless you're an overpaid & overrated Canadian OL that teams open up the banks for as most of them truly are. There really aren't a lot of truly great Canadian OL playing on any team. The remainder of a typical roster don't make what they should be making. To me, appreciating or depreciating means nothing. Prime example Sean Lemon. In his mid 30's & not mid 20's. Signs one year deals only & cashes in every time.

Make sure the room has plenty of ventilation.

As much as I like Strev... but between the under arm odour, beer stains & smell of puke, I'll pass on that fur coat.

Why do people compare the NFL to the CFL? It's in another stratosphere so they should pay more so who cares? QBs making more in 2019 before the pandemic just shows how the CFL is shrinking & not growing while the CFL does nothing to spur growth. Personally, I don't care if Nathan Rourke made more money than any CFL qb did. Of course Collaros doesn't have to "entertain" anything. But for the good of the team he should. It's obvious the Bombers are up against it with the ridiculously low salary cap.

You can say that about every player. All it takes is one knee injury to destroy even a blue chipper's career. Or shorten it substantially.

I like Zach & want him back but yeah, it's time he took a haircut. The money being paid qbs is unsustainable. So, reset the position so this doesn't have to be a thing every year.
