Around The NHL 2019/2020
Lmao good for you for knowing someone. Ates was obviously an economics and statistics graduate "when he was a baby" in Pinawa at 14 years old. "I've worked in media so I know it all". Ken met me 10+ times in BG's (not that you would even know what that is since you don't live here so are obviously out of touch) and even me the layman could tell he wasn't anything exceptional. Wiebe is in no way a legend and you know that. Was Gary Lawless who was tenured with the Jets way longer a "legend"? Of course not. Murat Ates brings literal professional mathematic expertise in a way that Wiebe will never compare to. If you choose to disagree that's fine, but you're simply wrong and obstinate on the subject. He's already gone because he's the less valued partner. You can disagree all you want and spout your media history until your face turns blue but you're still wrong. Ates was kept because he's more valued and Wiebe was fired because he's less valued. That's an absolute fact. But I guess you know more than the owners of the Athletic so you should just continue to laugh. You're the smartest guy in the room, I guess

The Athletic Winnipeg Jets was nothing special until Ates brought mathematical expertise. The business made the correct decision and kept Ates and removed Wiebe. That says it all. If it was dire straits Ates would be gone too. Ates will continue to thrive and Wiebe will never be heard from again. He's the definition of replaceable

Never like seeing anyone lose their job, but Ken Wiebe just rode Murat Ates' coat tails success and abilities. Wiebe brought nothing to the table.

Cassie Campbell for the flames is an absolute abomination. No breaking barriers, hire someone competent. If they deem it is a woman, great! If not, I don't want to see any virtue signalling by the CFL and making the game-day product look even more bush than it already is.

Sam Hurl was absolutely hammered and bought me 2 bud heavys at super spike like 4 years ago. Awful player, but I will always be thankful for that.

Didn't Mcguire look like one our best QBs out of camp last year?

This forum is a huge circle jerk right now. I love it.- 2019-20 Grey Cup Champs Off-season discussion.
This is an overlooked part of our playoff run. Usually there's luck involved with reffing, but we got none. The refs gave Calgary a TD a few minutes in to the game then proceeded to have most calls go their way. Sask game, Fajardo is 2 yards past the LOS and makes a 10+ yard completion. Bogus call. Start of the GC, Jefferson gets a very suspect RTP right off the hop. They overcame it all and didn't let it get to them. That's what makes Mike O'shea an elite coach.- 2019-20 CFL Offseason
Wade Miller would make a great CFL commissioner one day. I don't know if he would leave his post as el presidente of the Bombers, but he's a great candidate. He has the business acumen, understands the struggles of the league and bleeds all things CFL.- 2019-20 CFL Offseason
Canada needs the CFL. Besides the NHL, we have no other professional sports identity. No, curling doesn't count. There should be no doubt the government bails out the league. Imo, of course.- 2019-20 CFL Offseason
Way to somehow totally miss the point he made- 2020 CFL Draft
1st and 15th for 3rd and 12th? Seems dumb by Calgary, imo- 2019-20 CFL Offseason
The feds knowingly let the CBC lose billions every year to promote culture. Funnel something out of that loser corporation. They're definitely going to throw the CFL a bone. The question is how much- 2020 CFL Draft
I'm surprised they didn't try overpay for hometown boy Michael Couture like they did with Chungh. Edit: Couture extended a day before FA opened. I'm an idiot.- 2019-20 CFL Offseason
I saw 6 months of committees and $300,000 invested in a bunch of ugly rocks that some artist tossed together in two days. Absolutely disgusting. $50,000 and 6 months invested into re-doing 2 average window frames that could have been done in 3 days. That was 18 months ago and it's still not done. If the public knew how bad it really was there would be riots- 2019-20 CFL Offseason

This could open a can of worms league wide. If he wins, ex-staff members from every team are going to sue their ex organizations. Every team in the CFL is 100% guilty of doing this- Argonauts sign QB Nichols to three-year deal
I 100% agree this is going to happen. Lapo loved to make every game come down to the last 3 minutes with a 50/50 chance at winning. Ottawa is going to win 6-7 games, lots of their losses are going to be under 5 points giving everyone feign hope. People will say it's the beginning of a turnaround, but it won't happen. Although I'm also of the opinion Nichols couldn't navigate the pocket and had a popgun arm with no mobility and couldn't hit anyone in 10-15 yards. I'm playing both sides of the argument so I always come out on top.- 2019-20 CFL Offseason
Brett Jones re-signed in Minnesota for 1 year. Guy has earned over 5 million USD in his career. Glad to know he won't be back with the Stamps- Favourite Blue Bombers Memory

Rider's draft pick and U of M alum Onyemata re-signs with the saints. 3 years, 27 million. Good for him and glad to know he'll never wear a Rider's jersey.- Best CFL PLayer of the 2010's
