Back to back senior citizen plays by Kyrie and Houston pretty much sums it up

Thanks for quoting me when it was 3 0.
lol that’s your problem though, when the game is close, you harp on everyone who is critical and then when what we all predict happens, you just join the bandwagon and pretend you haven’t been whining about us doing the same thing ten minutes earlier

Why is Gauthier ever taking snaps on D at this point

Actually ridiculous how low energy our D looks

This forum continues to be obsessively negative. Even when some new recruits look good, it means O’Shea is bad. As if the forum recruited the impressive players and not Walters /O’Shea.
Win or lose, same old thing. Not sure what some posters get out of this.
Personally speaking, it’s the only way I can orgasm these days

Also the OL... I still believe in Zach but he doesn't have the right tools around him. I definitely agree that he's probably making too much money (probably - we don't know) for a guy that needs all the conditions to be right in order to be effective. At like 400k... Build a proper OL, get better receivers, possibly a better OC (again, we have no clue...) and I think Zach can get it done. Like, if Collaros is on the Als right now, I think they're absolute murderers.
This kind of mentality is exactly what caused the mess we’re in right now. What kind of hopium are you huffing that makes you think Zach can get it done?
Just watch him. His arm is toast. The majority of his throws are either hospital balls or complete ducks and you think it’s the personnel around him or the play calling? It doesn’t even matter if you factor in all the other struggles on offense, there’s not many throws out there that he is making confidently anymore regardless of play call, protection or personnel.

Jake Thomas is by no means our biggest problem. But he’s the most glaring example of roster negligence we can possibly ever imagine having. We start him and it’s not even ratio related. He could be replaced by an American tomorrow and it would not affect the ratio one bit.
Unless our team is admitting they’re not putting out the best possible roster, the only explanation for this is that we can somehow not find a better DT down south than Jake Thomas.

The wasted money include as well: White Jr, Makonzo, Hagerty, among others.
I mean there’s zero wasted money there

I’m just irritated with yet another terrible handling of free agency dollars.
Sign a guy to decent money, healthy scratch (aka pay him against the cap to do nothing) and then move him to the PR where we definitely also still paid his full salary and then cut him for the playoff run.
What the hell was the overall plan for this guy?

The thing is - and I haven’t heard anyone mention this yet - if they wanted to go full American, they could’ve and didn’t even with the rules they did adjust.
They made the end zones 15 yards, not 10. They made the play clock 35 seconds, not 40. They kept the width of the field and the rouge, they just slightly altered other aspects of those two categories.

Will changing the rules make people care? I don't see how. The only way to get asses in seats is to putting time and effort in your community.
Toronto "we've tried nothing and got no results! It's the rules!"
I don’t think it’s the changing of the rules. I’m sure it’s not lost on any one of these executives that they are gaining 25 yards of space at field level - how do they use that? Field level patios? Influencer bullshit?

I didn’t watch the presser, but I think you can still return a missed FG.
How many field goals are going to be returnable with the goal posts in the back? Very few.
My least fav adjustment is the 35 second play clock. I would’ve been fine with it if they dropped it to 25 in the final 2 minutes of a game.

Because it’s the cfl. That’s why. I think it’s likely revenue related. If it’s on field it’s replay RTP or something they could introduce today. Why announce changes when there’s 5 games left. Could be as simple as starting the season earlier even. Major on field changes being announced but then not implementing them until next season seems like a dumb thing right now. Why not wait till season over. If it’s on field it’s something they can introduce immediately without really effecting things. You can’t rip up fields In 4 days.
I like how you made a statement in the first sentence that answers every question that followed

What are you going to do? Call that person up to confirm one way or another? Either believe the information or don't but for the love of God ... let it go.
The part I don’t get about this is I literally remember the days when GCn would talk about hearing things from players because of working in the hospitality industry.
I don’t get his obsession with doubting that players could talk to mere CITIZENS. I’ve had Wolitarsky in my basement for drinks, I’ve worked out at the same gym as Hefner, Suber and Willis. I’ve got to house parties at Swiston, Kowalczuk and Andre Douglas’ house when they all rented together. I’ve had to get Charlie Roberts a taxi home from the bar so he’d stop begging people for smokes. The stuff I’ve heard and the stuff you can hear as people around the city is out there. The interaction is there all the time, these guys aren’t millionaires with their own circles - they’re just dudes. Why is there so much doubt that Booch has similar access when we all know he’s got history coaching camps and being involved in training?

Then again normally when ppl announce significant changes it’s not with 5 games left so if it’s immediately implemented then it’s 100 percent replay related. It’s something to do with replay or roughing the passer penalties cuz honestly you can change rules all you want but a significant change is protecting the starting QBs cuz nobody paying to see backups play. Thats a league wide problem and would make sense. Or AI reffing.
I honestly don’t know why you think that they’d be holding a press conference on a Monday morning to announce replay changes.
This is obviously a much bigger deal than you’re making it out to be.

I think significant is really going to mean significant. I can think of one way they’d change things up … 3rd down and 5 or less, you’re not allowed to kick the ball.
Field dimensions wouldn’t make sense - logistically too much of a challenge because of the teams that share fields with other teams (see: us)
Going to four downs is the easy choice, I don’t think it’s that.
If it’s not directly rules related, I wouldn’t be surprised if they announce they’re going to one division. They could technically announce that effective immediately, not that it would make sense.
