I say he got up front money from Taman. You know, 100k due on April 1st or something equally insane

Wow the RedBlacks turned him down? That's shocking. 

That does it - I'm calling it the Superb Owl from now on

I am as much a CFL fan as I am a Bomber fan, I'll watch anything CFL related and follow it all closely... but I don't give any kind of damn about the NFL. It's a horribly over hyped league and I quite frnakly resent it for taking attention away from the CFL. I don't know if it's just a Calgary phenomenon but it seems like the NFL is a bigger deal than the CFL here and I hate that more than words can say. I can not wait for the superb owl to be over with so we can stop hearing about that damned league all the time. Lots of other sports to focus on. 

Sad, sad news...
 
Great fan, great poster, also the guy who switched me over to Bombay......

If it was possible to have less than 0 interest in the NFL, I would. I'm desperate for it to be overwith so we don't have to hear about it constantly. Post-Superbowl is the best time for me, because it's in the heart of Curling season, and the CFL FA Day is coming soon and the CIS Draft not far off...

Foley to the Argos for Emry. Didn't see that one coming.

My prediction: O'Shea will let other people touch the Quarterbacks

Colour me unsurprised, after what we witnessed in the trenches this past season. Hmmmm maybe a few more decent OL will shake loose due to cap issues...

Canadian OL depth is razor thin on this team. What happens if Morley gets hurt and Goossen isn't ready to step in as the every day centre?
 
Ditto with the two OG positions.  

I agree.  IMO their are two primary factors:
 
1. An extra down allows them to play more smash-mouth football. Draws, dump-offs, screens, et. al.
 
2. The insane amount of time that teams can just burn off with the extra down and the 40 second clock.

The idea that they don't must be quaintly west coast.
 
I got my info from Bluto, and from the experience of attending a couple of games at Skydome.

I always found Buck to be more of an ad lib QB who liked to hold on to the ball longer than most

One other thing I forgot to mention until Gary Lawless reminded me with his tweet this morning, does Hutch factor into the Calder Trophy talk?

How much help did Hutch have in the third vs. Boston?  I think that's a fair question.  There's a ton of pressure on both goaltenders right now.

Who is freaking out in this thread? The jets lost and the reasons why are being discussed in the game day thread. Seems pretty reasonable to me.
The Pav vs. Hutch debate will continue no matter what until there is a clear cut starter.
I'm ecstatic with our record given that our top 4 D-men are out, however I'm never going to be "happy" after a loss, especially one where we were up 3 - 1 going into the third and only managed a couple of shots in the period.

It's as good as done - do not underestimate the power of MBB

Where's Noeller with the nerd gif?

Wonderful news - and nice to see that you've recovered with your dry wit intact.
 
I shall raise a glass of Chivas to you this Friday night

I definitely agree with this. I actually argued strongly against trading him a couple years ago on another forum. He's the most unique talent in the NHL.
And while I felt pulling the trigger earlier this season was a good idea I was wrong about the jets ability to get back on track. You can't trade him when you're in the picture as they are now.
But it's not ludicrous to say a decision will have to be made sooner or later.

Expendable: of little significance when compared to an overall value, and therefore able to be discarded

Buff had a good game back in D
