How am I here posting Walter’s two year extension before anyone else. Does no one listen to radio anymore?
Thread title: 2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News.
Lots of talk about it in this and other threads.

No, check out Farhan Lalji & Dave Naylor's discussion on TSN during GC week. It isn't pretty & not all 3 will be back. In the meantime, work to sign veteran free agents has already started with other CFL teams but not us. There's no one there who can do the work, according to Naylor & Lalji. So. I didn't make it up. The info comes from TSN.

If Osh is the GM & Head Coach then yes. Look at the other teams in the CFL who have dual positions like Calgary & Edmonton. We can only hope that media stories yesterday pf everyone coming back is true.
So when Lalji and Naylor (of all people) say it, you take as gospel but when other, more locally in touch media report on it, you take a wait and see approach?

On the same weekend the Globe and Mail rates us Third most livable city in the country...
Getting ranked 3rd overall is pretty impressive considering they has us at 422th (out of 439) for climate. We must have done really well in the other categories!

Looking forward to reliving what could have been this season and scrutinizing every little change going into next year.
At least Bilbo came home with a ring! 😂

I have no doubt we were banged up at receiver but we had guys we could have used instead. Did BOLO even see the field? Ambles was brought in for this exact scenario and wasn't dressed. Grant started the game at receiver but I didn't notice him there after that. The options were there and we chose not to use them.
The decision to let these all these guys play in their condition was a failure of the coaching staff and the players themselves.

does anyone know what the '24 draft class looks like? I know last year was pretty shallow... is this one supposed to be better?
I believe so. A bunch of highly rated prospects deferred their draft year to this year, iirc.

Some sites will create a link that the site doesn't recognize or like, with the button in the bottom right corner it will notify you that the link isn't valid.
Yup, I always open the image itself in a new tab so I can copy that info rather than user a site-generated link.
Some files aren't actually GIFs either, they could be webp files or some other animated image, and that can also be an issue for the site. I try to stick to images in actual gif format.

I post gifs from an android phone all the time - Samsung or Pixel but you don't have to use that box. Just paste the link in the with the rest of your text.
I have noticed is that sometimes when I paste the link, I have to hit enter (like to create a new paragraph) or the page won't recognize the text as a link. A little message will pop up saying your link has automatically been embedded and the gif will show up.

Any team with Grant lurking around I think would have the edge.....mind you our cover teams have blown for the most part, but have we gave up a return TD this yr?...I don't recall
Yep, at least one. Last month, we gave Edmonton their first return TD in almost a decade.

I'm sure glad Bailey was willing to take a big discount to come back.
He's probably still down money but he's already making some of it back in playoff bonuses. Wouldn't have gotten an extra cent if he had signed with the Riders.

Sounds like John Hodge.
Hodge asked MOS at the coaches forum about the Kyle Walters' situation and was rightfully admonished by Osh.
Hodge now has an article up on the 3DN blog.

He put up a picture after the game with his cleats hung up in his locker.
I get that but that's also right after a huge loss so there's some emotion involved.
Fwiw, I do think he's calling it a career but his pre-game comments make me think there's still a chance he comes back.

He has said many many many times this year that it is. From the start of the season it was announced its his final season as he's going to manage and coach the junior team in Nanaimo that he used to play for. And then Kristina Costible asked him again this week just to confirm and he said, yet again, that he's done. And then he posted on his social media a picture of hanging up his cleats. He is very much done.
I'm not ready to close the books on his career just yet. Can't find the quote but this week he said he was definitely done in Toronto and was hoping to wrap up his career with another grey cup. The way he phrased it made me wonder if he wasn't leaving the door open for a team (BC probably) to bring him in next year.
The way BC employs the run game, it might actually be a good fit. Minimal wear and tear on a running back in that offence.

Survivor Series was in Punk's hometown so that was the best place for him to return, plus the longer they waited, the more likely the news would have leaked. If they were going to hold off on a return, Orton would have been the one to wait.
