CFL - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
It may not end up as a cakewalk, but I've seen the other teams in the East enough. They aren't on the Argonauts' level. It's down to injuries and luck now.

Yeah... the "new" stats pulldown is a disaster.

Wondering if Ja'Gared Davis has found his jockstrap yet after Chad juked him out of it in week two for a score.

Argos Versus Tigercats Game Thread
Hope that you're both right, but if he gets his storybook year leading a team to a major trophy, I think he'll have takers offering guaranteed money. The guys all love him and his work ethic is impressive.

Pretty much that. For me, I'm starting to wonder if Kelly will be One-And-Done. If he continues as he has been, you wouldn't bet against him making getting a deal down south. It's obviously his main motivation.

Argos Versus Tigercats Game Thread
I think that Winnipeg is doing what veteran laden teams in the CFL do: coast through the early stages, don't get yourself killed in July and August... and try to make your run when it counts. I'm an Argo fan, I've seen us make GC runs exactly like that. (which is why having us out to a fast start this season is such an anomaly)

Argos Versus Tigercats Game Thread
If it makes you feel any better, the Argos didn't win the GC that year. They lost to the Rough Riders in the East Final.

What was the other one?

Argos Versus Tigercats Game Thread
The Scullers haven't been 5-0 in my lifetime. On paper this ought to be a comprehensive win, but the Tabbies won't want to lay down at home. Particularly in a year where Hamilton is hosting the Grey Cup. Coach Stein has to keep them believing. I'm trying to think of how they'll come at our defence other than try and try again to run. Maybe they do what the Als did and use about 35+ screens? It'll be chippy, dirty and covered in penalty flags. 10.5 spread. I take the Argonauts and give up the points. EDIT: Fun Fact - The last time the Argonauts were 5-0 to start was the year that McMahon Stadium Opened!

In general, or about football in particular? His bit about culture and art was an interesting take.

It's only ad hominem if you consider being called "weird" an attack.

Tigercats at Elks July 13
It's a crisis... but it's the CFL and rebuilds can be done in a year. Elks need to have a cold, heartless, top-down look at how to hit ctrl-alt-del on this mess. (And if they were in the East, they might've even got a partial rebuild from August castoffs and still had a shot at the final playoff spot... No hope of that with them looking nailed-on for 5th)

And isn't there a new rule in the NFL that adds an extra QB? That makes it easier to have a journeyman QB around and not always feel pressured to have an heir apparent receiving on-the-job-training. Might benefit MBT's chances?

I am in the Caribbean somewhere between Cozumel and Grand Cayman. My ship has 2 ESPN channels, so I should have the game, right? Nope. A "classic" NBA game on one, Pro PickleBall on the other. Go you Boatmen go.

I could be mistaken, but I don't think he was their issue tonight.
