    Choosing the highest offer with no consideration of the situation and the odds of achieving success in a results driven business like football is the very definition of being a dummy.

    If you believe in your abilities as a head coach then every situation has equal odds of achieving success. If you think O'Shea would be discouraged by walking into a tire-fire like the Argos then you really haven't been paying attention. If he can turn around the Bombers after 2009-2013 then he can handle any situation.

    and we should be able to pay him the most...we don't have to pay for a canned coach..and I believe Hall is on a 1 year contract, so if we go a different direction there it won't cost us...And if Lapo leaves for a HC gig elsewhere..again it won't cost us...so if we get into a bit of a bidding war...we should be more than okay there

    Yeah I hope so.

    I only begrudge the fact that I used to be able to pick up Jets tickets at $40-50 for decent seats and now its $100+ for absolute nosebleed...  these prices will just keep going up as salaries go up - and we'll miss another season of hockey with a lockout soon I'd guess...  

    Main reason I like the CFL - salaries are high but normal in relation to the rest of the world... about where they should be

    You can get seats on ticketmaster for 80 dollars to most games but what I tend to do is buy off season ticket holders who are looking to get rid of some games... easily find tickets in the 50-75 range whenever I want them (aside from really premium games which are a little harder to come by).

    I do agree that tickets are getting way too pricey though... I'm just sharing how I try to work around it. 😁

    I understand your point, but WHO IS an MOP candidate in the league at this point?

    The 2 leading candidates up until 2 weeks ago were Trevor Harris and Andrew Harris. Well Trevor H's team is tanking, he is now injured, and he seems to throw for a lot of yardage, but that's it. And Andrew, well, not a lot of votes are going his way, rightly or wrongly.

    Yeah, somehow I have far more vitriol towards the Riders this year than any other in recent memory. I'm going into this game angry and spiteful instead of my usual cheerful (but still spiteful) attitude.

    I think it's because their team is garbage but they've lucked into facing beat up teams every week so their fans think they are actually good.
