If you think that was intentional I have several bridges over various rivers to sell you.

Demski’s best role is definitely being a Swiss Army knife when he doesn’t have the spotlight. Didn’t know he was commanding such a salary though.

As @Booch once called him and had me lol’ing… Jake Dole Banana will be starting for BC this week, VA is week to week.

I am at a point where the injuries are becoming too major of a factor. Thurman now out this week along with everyone else already lost. Ottawa is sneaky good, especially defensively and will be a tough game.

I believe so yea, he's been working with Auburn (his alma matter) and likely is getting well compensated there. The Riders signed a couple OL, I'm guessing it was a "I can come help for one game but that's all I can do" situation, or maybe he thought he'd give it a shot.

In my field it's a phrase usually said before a risk is taken, usually so the blame can be shifted to the proper party if things go wrong. Mace is simply just owning the fact that he feels he didn't prepare the team properly. I guess the phrase has just evolved.

Dheilly was a DL.

Davis being 35 is not something I remotely expected, I thought he was 29 at the oldest

Personally I never thought CF was done… I just thought his attitude would sink him. But he’s been great in MTL, and finally worked on his deep ball this past offseason, which is paying off for him.

I cannot comment on this as he pre-dated me by a couple years, but many of them have a strong distaste from MOS as a player.

Anyone with any sort of attitude of superiority right now has either had too many rums, or is ignorant. Seen too much crap the last two years to feel any sort of comfort at this point. I am enjoying the season so far, but by no means do I feel any sort of overconfident. I do think they're still a good team, though.

No it doesn’t, but it’s asinine to suggest pure luck in every win lol. Are they the best? No. But are they competing for the west? Absolutely.

Welllll then I guess you should be more concerned with your own squad In all seriousness, it’s wide open. No one team looks heads and shoulders above the rest. Most open it’s been in a long time.

You’re smarter than this, Booch. You said this when we played you guys, you basically say it every week. Not sure if it’s just too much bias against the Riders or what, but yeesh.

This reminded me so much of a Dickenson era 2022/2023 loss. The listless, low effort game we were used to.

Possibly, good thing we get to play Winnipeg two more times

It’s also a mystery to the CFL I firmly believe.

Allegedly they've considered him the future for a while now, he just may be. Reminds me a bit of Travis Lulay.

Miles Brown took a misconduct penalty and Mace ripped him a new one, Ol’ Dicky would’ve patted his head and said it’s not his fault.

Aaron Grymes was really good in like… 2015.

Okay and what about the facts this year? His touch on his deep ball is gone. He has a 2-7 TD-INT ratio. He is hurting your team a lot more than he’s helping your team, the deep ball to Wilson that Milligan knocked away should’ve been a walk in touchdown, and maybe two years ago it would’ve been, but Zach has lost it. He looks a lot like the Zach that played for the Riders.

I think Rourke is BC or no return based on some of his comments

I did question why no kneel down, but I’m gonna be honest, if a Rider did that to Collaros, I’d call it the same way, I hate that bs. Very unfortunately reffed game, the CFL needs an overhaul. The PI on Ford was non existent, it’s unacceptable. And it’s every game.

Bighill really wants to stay relevant eh?

Indeed! I can't wait for the game.
