Lowry was so good last night...and, as mentioned on the broadcast, he was a key cog in their playoff run a couple years ago. That kid is an integral part of the time. I've come to learn that 95% of what Ducky posts in the hockey threads is borderline insanity...

Soooooooo.....it's a second Grey Cup Week?? ....But in the off-season.........

TORONTO – The Canadian Football League announced today that Saskatchewan will play host to the first ever CFL Week in March, 2017. The week will be capped off with the CFL’s National Combine, where Canada’s rising stars will come together in Regina for the most social and most accessible Combine – for fans and media – in CFL history. The off-season gathering will also include several major fan engagement events, multi-day media access opportunities to more than 50 prominent CFL players, a Hall of Fame and player Gala Dinner at the new Mosaic Stadium, a coaches’ media junket and a new passing showcase tournament featuring several of Canada’s top university football programs. “We are excited to be bringing the largest-ever CFL off-season gathering and party to Rider Nation,” said Jeffrey L. Orridge, CFL Commissioner. “This is about giving fans more Canadian Football events and engagement with our brand in the off-season each year. This is also about providing sports media more access and content opportunities to today’s biggest and rising stars.” For more information and tickets to the inaugural CFL Week, please visit cflweek.ca.

Yep, as Mike alluded to, it's gotta be something real big......curiouser and curiouser....

I wondered if it was that...basically said that there's a CFL sanctioned LGBTQ2 party during GC Week in Toronto....that was talked about this morning. Is that what the major announcement is/was?? It's cool and all, and good for the league, but doesn't really seem like THAT big a deal...

Lol @ Jones with the brass ones calling out Durant as "moderately successful"....c'mon....I have never been a Durant fan, but seriously....you're going to intentionally antagonize the one decent QB you've got???

I think if, some 2 days after the game, you're still losing your mind over how it ended.......you need to dial it back about 10-20%. It happened, it's done, we've gotta move on or it's gonna eat you alive.

Teammates say he regularly hit from 60 in practice (I know I know, practice...) and hit at least one from nearly 70. But again, we really need to move on from the whole thing...

I know Terrence Edwards did...he was a HUGE fan of JE at the CIS level...

Lol! @ firing O'Shea.....awesome.

1st and 6th, as of now, it sounds like. Can't wait....

The most important thing, I think, is everyone just needs to move on from it. They made the choice, it didn't work, so be it. Let's all move on and just start to focus on 2017...it's going to be a great off-season for the team with a lotta great things happening as we continue to build what should be a great team...

I cant' stand this whole arguing over the kick (but I get that it's a messageboard and it's what we do...) Interesting note from Nichols that he was totally understanding of the kick: Jim Toth ✔ @JimTothSports @DTonSC @RGR_Classic Nichols added they saw him hit 60-yards throughout season in practice including one 66 yarder

The Chicago Blackhawks Method

That is how I feel. I'm okay with the penalty because it puts the fear of God into em. They'll start getting the alligator arms in traffic.. Also, if ever there was a guy who deserved to take a hit like that, it's Manny Arceneaux, who's been imposing his physical will on DBs for years...

Halls contract done and Steinauer is one of MOS closest friends. Could be intriguing depending on what happens out east.

Is Hall not at the end of his contract or does he have another year?

Great team, great effort. Jist fell a hair short. Congrats to everyone. Let's get management extended and get back to work building an OUTSTANDING 2017 team...

Love this team, stoked for the future. Can't wait for MOS and Walters extensions soon and 1st overall pick in 2017. Next year is going to be fantastic. Orlando Steinauer is a FA and is one of MOS best friends. If we can upgrade there, it goes a long way. Already excited for next year.

Oh I don't disagree... But I'm a noted traditionalist. It's worked fine till now... Don't let one off year allow you to change everything forever.

Question: Did Nichols have any other INTs last week, besides that first one which Kohlert shoulda had...?

Harris, too...

No Fantuz and no Tasker is a huge problem. Collaros is big time soft-melon right now, too. I'm cheering hard for Ham, and I think Edm is sleeping on them big time, but I just don't think there's any way Edmonton can lose this.

Top reg season team still standing gets bye to final?

I woke up at 7:30...couldn't sleep....overloaded with nervousness and excitement. I have never wanted anything in my life as much as I want a championship for this organization. Vegan likes BC, as do the majority of CFL pundits.....
