I wonder why the CFL would suspend a guy who is aleady retired? I guess at least he is still kind of around to suspend i guess?? Better late than never? 😄

If they suspend him then he can’t pull a Tom Brady.

Montreal has a guy named Randy Rhino!!! RANDY RHINO!!! ... this is the greatest name I've ever heard... why have we never heard of this guy!?

Randy Rhino was a well known player.  Played for 6 years, 3 time CFL all star and lead the league in punt returns.

Cahoon's National status was biggest joke ever to be honest...Woli has more claim to than Cahoon

Rourke was born here but all of his formative training that actually matters was in the U.S....

From what I read Rourke played in Ont. right thru high school.  Then he went to the states for college.  Sounds like most of his formative training was in Canada.

I’ll be in Wpg. this weekend.  Is there a sports bar in the south end of town that is sure to have the game on? Thanks in advance.

If you were talking receiver, or even FT DE/DT you could be right. However, it is not hard to get even a raw rookie up to snuff enough to be a successful rotational DL. He can definitely help us this year.

That’s good to know. I have concerns about the DL.  Always wondering when Jeffcoat may go down.  Fingers crossed he won’t.

Wonder if he is/was a neg list guy that we were tracking as he exhausted any NFL opportunity...seems built for the CFL game

Unless there are 2 Garbutts, this guy is a rookie who has never been to a pro camp. Plus he’s missed almost half a year of the CFL to date.  To me let’s hope we don’t have anymore Dline injuries because I don’t see how this guy can help us this year.  Great looking prospect though.

Love this simile but given that Brady is a UND Fighting Hawk product rather than their arch rival NDSU Bison, perhaps "Flying like a Fighting Hawk" would be more to his liking 😅

I thought UND was the fighting. Sioux, or did they get politically corrected?

A quick look at various PR shows not much of note. Might have to make a deal.

I checked all the rosters and only found 3 candidates.  None seemed any better than the rifle kid, which is probably why we signed him.
