and when you say moving you mean not moving because the returner just takes a knee and doesn't go anywhere right? At least in the CFL you get the opportunity for a return every play which is well worth the few seconds it takes to call a penalty and set the after the infraction.

He made the switch 5 games into the season, hardly waiting until the last minute
-
get out. Just get right out of here with talk like that. Refs might suck at calling no yards but it is so much better than the ******** fair catch nonsense that I'll live with it.

If you don't have a gun then the King of England can just waltz into your house and start pushing you around, do you want that?

pretty sure you can find a lot of the first season episodes on youtube or other such video streaming sites.

Around The League Off Season Discussion

yeah but he didn't just walk away, police know who he is and if they decide that charges are warranted it'll be easy enough to find him and nail him to the wall. -
The reality is that when you have that many 1000 yard receivers chances are you're not keeping them together long term because they're all going to want to get paid like 1000 yard receivers. Be interesting to see what happens with that team next year for sure.
-
You don't need an Andy Fantuz type who can be among the best in the league regardless of passport, but our canadian receivers were underwhelming this year, and I say that as a Kohlert fan, but we need someone who can do more than we got out of the position. A star would be great but how about an occasional playmaker?

Around The League Off Season Discussion

Trade the guy who won you a Grey Cup just one year ago and is one of the top performing qbs in the league to go with a largely unknown? Yeah I don't think so. -
No I don't think refs are biased now. There is a difference between bias and incompetence. The CFL refs just aren't very good at their jobs and in my opinion the review process makes it easier for them to be bad at their jobs because they don't have to worry about making mistakes, replay will fix it. Without that crutch they would have to improve or they'd be out of a job.
-
That rumour was debunked many times.
-
They tried the time limit on reviews, they always went over it in the name of getting the call right. Honestly just ditch reviews entirely, let the refs do their jobs and we will live with the mistakes
-
Nichols will be signed, I have no doubts about that, his agent is just shooting for the moon hoping for the best, they'll reach a reasonable deal. In the mean time I don't have an issue with them trying to get Franklin as well, if nothing else drive up the price that Jones will pay. Bottom line I don't want to do into the year just banking on a young QB breaking through. Seen that movie go south too many times.
-
Nor was that Calgary team the one that ran through the regular season. It's the CFL man, one game anything, absolutely anything can happen. Ottawa caught Calgary with their pants down. Stamps bought the hype and Ottawa used the "you got no chance in hell" talk as motivation.
-
Or he could be just another over hyped young qb who looked good in limited reps and can't sustain it over the long haul. Jury is out on the guy until he proves himself one way or the other.
-
I heard he played the game in a wheel chair
-
The Stamps lost cause their defense had their heads up their asses until the end of the game and because they were behind BLM didn't know what to do and started to panic and try to get everything back in 1 play. Stamps didn't do anything methodically, they just tried to come back all at once and it was the stupidest thing to do. Especially going for the endzone on the first play in OT. That was so dumb. You got as much time as you want, work it down to the endzone and then you're not likely to be in a situation where you need 10 yards on 3rd down. It's 3 down football when the other team gets the TD first so get you 3.33 yards each possession and march that sucker.
-
I had the exact same thought for the exact same reason. Kick the ant hill over there but good.
-
You think you're upset try not winning one once and awhile?

Stamps are arrogant assholes, more breaking news at 11. If it was anyone but ***** Burris beating them I'd be enjoying their pants shitting a lot more but Burris is as much an arrogant ******* as anyone. -

And yet Winnipeggers keep proving my attitudes correct. Wahhhh I like the old location better, bet the old arena location was better too, I remember the stink about daring to put the arena down town. Winnipeg will complain about absolutely everything. -
There are reasons for the league to not acknowledge a link. You get the commissioner up there saying there's a link and suddenly you're opening up a world of bad legal situations for the league. People gotta stop taking every word someone says in front of a microphone as gospel.

It's not exactly central... You Winnipeggers are spoiled, even with heavy traffic it's still a pretty small city that doesn't take long to drive across. Really a lot of the complaints about the location to me ring out as more of the tried and true Winnipeg attitude of "change is bad" -
yeah but any given sunday, and not all of their games this year have been dominating wins, they've had their share of close ones. No team is unbeatable. I don't expect Ottawa to do it either but until the final whistle goes you just never can be sure.
-
so are we just awarding the Stamps the Cup before the game has even been played? Cause I remember a team that dominated the regular season that we did the same thing for several years back... didn't work out so well. Let's see if the Stamps can seal the deal on Sunday before we start speculating on a dynasty.

Harris is a pro, no questions asked he will put in maximum effort all the time and make plays as a result. We're lucky to have him.
