FNF Als V The Gappers
That missed call was so bad and obvious that the one Rider fan in our section saw the replay, stood up and left before it was overturned

2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News
Randomly listened to Riders games driving through the gap a vouple times and I was shocked by how bad Mullinder was at his job. Openly whining like a baby, poor enunciation, talking over others. Obviously a homer too. SK media seems really bush league as a whole. But at least they're on the right track and Ballsy is out. That's a good start

Hate it. Status quo is exactly the opposite of what this regime needs to be doing.

Were the bombers the best team in 2019? No. It doesn't matter who "the best" is. What matters is the championship. The last two years has shown that the championship pedigree isn't there. That's why I'm reticent over the commitment to that core.

He was. Correct me if i'm Wrong, but, yeah, he was making like 2nd or 3rd highest salary amongst them. So the question is -- where are our upgrades as a whole? I just don't see them outright.

The best team in the league didn't win the Grey Cup? I don't think he'll be worth "top MLB" salary. He wasn't a top 3 MLB for the last 2 years, why would he be now?

Father time. It's crucial to cut bait before the end, not a year too late. Bighill has clearly been on the decline for a couple years. He gets washed out like crazy, misses clean tackles, gets beat regularly. But, hey, maybe I just need to be talked off the ledge after years of PTSD. I just wish the WBB went more Buono on this and started making the tough decisions that need to be made. I haven't seen a tough decision besides the Hall/Boudreau moves, but that's not the roster. I think Mike is right as well, FWIW. I think he was a year early with his "fans will start turning prediction", and this year will be the year. PROVE ME WRONG EVERYONE PLS Running it back for year 3 without clear upgrades just seems like a major error, imo.

Fair, but what signings are you really excited about? We're going to lose Schoen. Bighill was a straight liability in the Grey Cup. I don't see reason for much optimism there amongst the LB corps Collaros has been dog **** for 3 straight Grey Cups, sans showing up super clutch in OT in 2021. I'm not disagreeing with you, btw, I'm just not seeing many upgrades.

I hope you're right! My fears are the dam started showing cracks last year (that anyone could see) and that the dam bursts this year. At worst, what, this roster should pull out 11, 12 wins. And maybe that's just us being entitled at this point. And it is the CFL, after all. A 3 game win streak wins it all 🤣

Same. And it scares me. Committing to a core who hasn't been able to get it done. What are we, the Toronto Maple Leafs?

Around The NHL 2023-24
Fooler here is Ottawa, probably from the offseason hype that playoffs were around the corner. We all know Leafs, Oilers, Habs fans are perpetually delusional about the realities of their team.

Call it what you want … you need to move on from Collaros
Calgary also moved on from Burris to Bo when Burris still had gas in the tank. Burris still went on to have success but moving on to Bo was the right (and risky) call at the time

Call it what you want … you need to move on from Collaros
Collaros hasn't shown up for a Grey Cup since 2019. Caught lightning in a bottle then. 2020 cup Collaros went 21/32 for 240, 2 TD, 2 INT. Got to OT in spite of him. If Steinhauer isn't a moron and doesn't concede that single Bombers lose. The only difference was he showed up clutch in OT, and yes he deserves credit for that. Garbage in the next 2 cups. This is a get it done league, not barely show up when it actually counts leage. Personally I'm ready to move on

applies to both. The serious penalties start coming in at 100k+ on both in the form of draft picks and 2:1 penalties It's worth it for any contending team to go over 99k on both. Burn 198k in fines, but make up that revenue as a drop in the bucket hosting playoff games.

Teams that violate the cap are subject to a dollar-for-dollar fine for the first $100,000 they go over. For violations over $100,000, teams will forfeit a draft pick(s) while being assessed a fine between $25,000 to $250,000. I would be perfectly okay with purposely going $99,000 over the operations cap every year if it means retaining the staff.
