  1. what a hilarious bunch of crap.. they crying because we brought our auditioning players to try out and earn a job? suck it whiners, its preseason.. its evaluation.. give us more preseason games thena..

    Don't think it was whining. I think they just made an observation that it was difficult to get a good handle on each team's strengths. Same thought process would be used when observing a limited playbook.

  2. From the Hamilton Spectator:

     

    "When the opposition dresses one man who will start next week, it's difficult to get any kind of definitive read on the 2013 Hamilton Tiger-Cats"
     
    "Not sure if the CFL can do anything about this, but you can't have a team coming into the final exhibition game with virtually no starters in the dressing room. One of the contributors to that is the short time between the last pre-season games and the first in-season one. The league has to look this one directly in the eye, to see if it can prevent this insult to the paying fans. No one learned much about anything Thursday night, which isn't much return from half the available exhibition games."
     
    "The Blue Bombers brought just 41 players to Guelph — one less than the roster limit for the regular season, never mind the usually bloated rosters of exhibition play — and were without a single marquee player. Their No. 1 quarterback, Buck Pierce, didn't even make the trip and many of the players in the Bomber lineup may have just played their last professional."
