  1. Milt isn't saying anything that fans haven't been saying for years. He's not making any call as he has no say in anything - just voicing his opinion which is his job as a panelist. People don't need to know all the details to know that repeated head trauma is not good and ZC has had more than his fair share.
  2. Didn't see it mentioned anywhere but we cut Oyelola yesterday.
  3. Whichever he chooses. He played 6 seasons in each city and statistically, his best seasons were in BC. But if you look at what his accolades, Winnipeg has the edge so there's a good argument for both. He had more all-star seasons with BC but more team success & league awards here. BC: 1 Grey Cup, 1 MODP, 4x All CFL team Wpg: 2 Grey Cups, 2 MODP's, 2x All CFL team.
  4. It's not exactly a recipe for success now so what is there to lose? I wouldn't be making changes after a single game though...i would give them a few games together to how the new group does.
  5. Can we get the name of Lock of the Week changed to Cheek Clapper of the week?
  6. That's one of the things they should/could do but I have zero faith MOS will do that.
  7. Curious - what changes do you see them making to right the ship? I see so many issues with this team that I don't know how they can do that quickly enough to make a difference this season.
  8. You can partially tear a ligament, it doesn't have to be a full blown tear. He came back with a brace hoping to mitigate any further damage but clearly that didn't happen. He didn't re-injure himself on the 2 point convert either - it happened earlier in the game and he just gutted it out. The 2 point convert was just a visible display of how hurt he was.
  9. And also missed most of last year for the exact same injury.
  10. Feel terrible for Schoen and whoever made the call to play him with that injury should feel terrible as well. Schoen's career shouldn't be the only down the drain - that's inexcusable.
  11. At minimum... so many guys way more deserving than Jake. I wouldn't even put him in the WFC HOF which is way less exclusive than the ROH.
  12. You can find tailgating all over the place near the stadium. If you are taking rapid transit to the game, you may want to head over to the parking lots near University & Dysart. The official team area is just east side of the building (corner of Chancellor Matheson & University). Here's a rough map with some locations where you can find tailgating.
  13. And Malik Boynton, who made that post, had a brief stay with us in 2019.
  14. Other teams have bottomed out and haven't done a mass overhaul like what was done in Calgary (when is the last time another team went with 12 new starters on D?) so yeah it was a choice on their end to a certain extent. Forced to make changes - yes. Forced to completely revamp their team - no, they chose to go that extreme and (so far) it's working for them. It flies in the face of MOS & Walters saying you can only make so many changes at one time. I honestly have not seen anything from MOS that gives me confidence that he'll make necessary changes unless he's forced to.
  15. Stamps management was willing to make major changes where ours has been reluctant to do that. Yeah we made (or were forced to make) a couple moves but there definitely could/should have been more.
  16. Yep, I've tailgated in at least 8 different lots around the stadium (9 if you include the official tailgate area) and I'm sure there's more that I haven't yet. I hope somebody posts video from a Banjo Bowl tailgate for this guy so he can see what it's supposed to look like.
  17. markonfootball needs to get out more if he thinks that's something outstanding.
  18. It's rare but there have been multiple players in other sports who have won MVP on a team with a losing record (mainly baseball but has happened in the NBA as well). Most recent example was A-Rod in 2003 with Texas despite being 20 games below .500 (71-91). Cal Ripken Jr and Andre Dawson also did it a few years apart from each other in the late 80's/early 90's.
  19. I'm 100% sure we have the best medical team at treating those dreaded thorax injuries. I'm also sure we are the only team to suffer from them! 😂
  20. They are doing this with BA now but Biggie has said he doesn't want to coach when he hangs up his cleats unless it's to coach his kids.
  21. That Bryant kid we picked up from Calgary looks promising.
  22. I picked the Riders just because it's the LDC. Even though we've turned things around lately at The Pas West (did Princess Auto acquire the naming rights out there too or is it still IGF West?), I still expect a loss and hope to be surprised with a win.
