hey if Montreal wants to be an idiot and overpay for him, go for it. I trust Walters will get him at the price he wants, or he'll have a back up plan (Durant or something...) but I really do believe that Nichols will end up in Wpg. He's not the guy Montreal or Toronto wants...

that's what I'm betting on, actually....

Yeah, the non-guaranteed contracts is the biggest thing....it's almost insane that that exists in a pro sport today.

Haven't got to Twitter to confirm yet, but hearing Chris Jones has fired entire "training staff" from Riders.......

Puss In Boots getting busted with the catnip on "Knights" and his line "It's....uhhhhh....not mine..." made me laugh REALLY hard for an animated feature. Those were great movies...

I didn't realize they were doing a 3rd one...looks good. I really enjoyed the first couple (Minions was a bit of a letdown)....they're great for the kids but there's a LOT of really smart lines in there for the parents, too, which is the key to a good animated feature. Having Trey Parker as a guest voice in this one is a nice touch...

some kind of booger man....

Luckily, the truth (and reality), are likely half way between what Goalie is posting, and what Nichols' agent is trying to sell Walters on. They'll make a deal...

I definitely read that as well. This whole thing just reeks of something the Bombers would have done in the past because it's the cheap and easy way.

http://www.bluebombers.com/2016/12/12/224288/ Interesting tidbit: Asked about Glenn, Walters said: “The point of this discussion is who is the quarterback you want to hang your hat on as your starter, which is Matt Nichols, and then the development of the young guys, which is Dom. Kevin fits somewhere right in the middle. “We all think very highly of Kevin Glenn in this organization, but it is a business and we need to get Matt Nichols sorted out contractually and see where that number is. I’ll talk to Kevin’s agent and tell him this is where we see him fitting in and this is the price range we have… is it a good fit or is it not a good fit. That’s a discussion down the road. “It’s almost a separate entity when you’re looking at your salary cap and you’re looking at your roster. It’s what’s the number got to be for your starting quarterback and then what’s the domino effect for the rest of the roster. It would be really nice to get that piece into place so that you can figure out the rest.”

Some explanation as to why Macciocia told the Als to go f*** themselves: @DidierRDS The Alouettes offered the position of president to Danny Maciocia but they would not have let him pick the new GM. @CFL

and this may be somewhat fresh as it comes from a tweet from last night...

ehhhhhhh......I was cognizant....

for what it's worth, Steve Morley figures they'll settle on 415....

#Bombers have let it leak that Nichols wants $450,000 per season after being named Winnipeg's most outstanding player - @PentonKirk #CFL

now THAT part was intentional....

Fixed... ******* autocorrect and my fat fingers...

I thought the book on Stanley is that he's a big slow plug?
