anytime one of the talking heads says "I'm led to believe..." it's either coming from the player's agent or from the GM (Walters)..... so I'd bet he's not coming north, but it seems silly at this point in both leagues seasons. Just come up and make a bit of cash and win another 'ship.

If the back to back champs, and still favourite to win again this year, had called him, he would have come here....unless maybe he didn't want to be part of a rotation, and Jones told him he could have full time reps........ but there's no other reason why a player would chose that tire fire over Winnipeg right now.

Not sure which thread this belongs in, but it's interesting.... from the CFL's weekly notes:

Still do. That's how little I think of Corny.

I have not seen anything from Prukop that would make me want him ever as a Bomber... can't read a defense to save his life.....scrambles at the first sign of trouble and, lucky for him, can't be brought down because he's a lumbering giant. I'm telling you, he's a poor man's Prukop...

100k in hard money.... how bad is the state of QBing in the CFL that you'd pay 100k in hard money to get this guy to sign a contract?? Poor man's Dakota Prukop......unreal.

Nope! Eff @JConand those Evil Empire assholes!!

Seriously its like 3 posts up....

Gleeson is a gem. The Grand Seduction is a Canadian treasure.

Lol...

can anybody remember this situation happening in the CFL in their lifetime? It seems WAY over the top, which makes me think that whatever Lucky said (again, not excusing the punch) was REALLY bad. I just can't even imagine what would be THAT bad. This isn't 1970s minor-pro hockey. This is the second best football league on the planet (best??) and this stuff doesn't happen. What in the hell could Lucky possibly say that would be that bad to set off a guy who doesn't (to my knowledge) have a history of this behaviour?

but here's the point.... I don't think Judge sucker punched Lucky for a yo mama joke. Whatever Lucky said had to have been BAD to incur that kind of retribution. I'd be really curious to know what could be THAT bad...

well that's certainly interesting....

wow....

Trolls gonna troll....

Whitehead MUST have said something really bad....like, this kinda thing doesn't just happen for some basic insult.

I don't disagree with you, but I'd also like to know exactly what Lucky said to him to provoke it...

this randomly showed up in my FB memories today and I chuckled, in a sad sort of way, because you can really trace the fall of the Jets to this moment....

Tait raised a point in his "Upon Further Review..." piece that one could perceive this loss as concerning, if Hamilton has now created a template for other teams to follow. I don't know if that's true, if we choose to believe the loss is as simple as "We played like ****. If we play well, nobody can beat us".....

I read something somewhere today that it's the most points given up since Zac dropped 52 on us in '15...

It's been awhile since one of these games (apparently 2015, ironically ZC8 did it to us as a TiCat) so the trolls have been champing at the bit to drop some "O noes!1!"

It's the least amount of protection I've ever seen for Collaros in his time here, but Dave's right in that it was more about Hams blitzes being reqlly effective. They schemed well in their bye week. Even the offensive turnovers were more about being rushed. The loss was on the D for sure. Couldn't get a stop when they needed it.
