2021 (??) CFL Season
I might give you BA as an A given his leadership abilities. Stove you could be right at B. It's really difficult for me to gauge DTs and I think Drake was "the man" so maybe Stove needs to fill his spot. McAllister gets a lot of unwarranted praise. He has proven nothing. Maybe he has potential? We have Jefferson and Jeffcoat so his importance to me is very low. Losing Rose and Sayles it was important to bring in the next high skill DB so that's why I think Josh Johnson will be very important to us. That said, it might change given there will be other players out there to sign come February. Exume and Gauthier are top special teamers that have played a significant role for us.

Ranked A, B, C by priority. Just for fun. Expecting to be told I'm wrong. I'm also not saying that C level players won't get signed. Just like A level players may NOT get signed. Quarterback Sean McGuire (I) B Running back Andrew Harris (N) A Fullback Mike Miller (N) A John Rush (N) C Receiver Rasheed Bailey (I) B Nic Demski (N) A Julian Feoli-Gudino (N) C Janarion Grant (I) A Kenny Lawler (I) A Daniel Petermann (N) A Lucky Whitehead (I) B Offensive line Stanley Bryant (I) A Geoff Gray (N) A Jermarcus Hardrick (I) A Patrick Neufeld (N) A Cody Speller (N) A Defensive line Tobi Antigha (I) B Jackson Jeffcoat (I) A Alex McCalister (I) C Steven Richardson (I) C Jake Thomas (N) B Linebacker Jesse Briggs (N) B Brandon Calver (N) B Shayne Gauthier (N) A Thomas Miles (N) B Kyrie Wilson (I) B Defensive back Brandon Alexander (I) B Kerfalla Exumé (N) A Josh Johnson (I) A Chris Lyles (I) C Mercy Maston (I) B Otha Peters (I) C Nick Taylor (I) B Specialists K/P Justin Medlock (I) A LS Maxime Latour (N) B LS Chad Rempel (N) B

2021 (??) CFL Season
Ahh I haven't been paying much attention to CFL news lately because, quite simply, there hasn't really been any. Sucks we lost Rigmaiden. He was definitely a big part of our management group. Good luck to him. Good thing we still have Danny Mac and Ted Goveia under Walters. We're still strong, just not as strong.

Around The NHL 2019/2020
If we traded Laine I'd want a top 2 center, a penalty killing skilled 3rd line winger (the kind of guy that can play up on the 2nd line in a pinch like Copp) and a 1st round draft pick at the very least. I think we need those things more than we need to trade for a top defenseman. We at least have some good defensive prospects and could potentially find a guy on the free-agent market. Top 2 centers don't generally shake loose.

Not a gem of a game by Murray. Always dangerous but a lot of questionable throws. Should have had 4 ints

Murray 3rd pick of the day. Probably projecting his problems a bit on coaching decisions ha

Strev sighting. 4th and 1, false start. Tough to say if it was strevelers fault but the commentators were bashing the decision to take Murray off the field. And Murray had words with Kingsbury after

You have no idea the money involved in the contract. So why exaggerate? The team is looking for a commitment to run the team during very uncertain times. One of the only positions you are getting value from right now. You're right that there likely aren't many GM jobs out there. But on the other hand, who is going to come in and do as good a job as Desjardins? Do you think Desjardins can't find a steady job elsewhere? Maybe it won't be the GM of a football team but he will likely land on his feet. How can you justify paying equipment managers right now anyways? I think even the equipment managers are going to understand that. And they've been collecting a paycheck up until now.

His contract expires in December. I can't see why he would work without a contract. Can't say I know much about union workers, but I'm not sure what the big deal is about negotiating a new contract. Things are not status quo so I could see why both parties would want to be clear about what they are signing up for.

Could be right about the pay raise. Maybe not. Optics would probably be worse if a team didn't have a general manager. It still has to look like we're playing next year.

2020 Thread
Well I mean... Paying a GM is a pretty bare bones thing to do if you're going to have a season anytime soon. Does it say that they're giving him a pay raise? I highly doubt that's the case

Also Kyler Murray is like a Vernon Adams at another level so he's got that CFL vibe to him

I never really cared for the NFL at all but right now it's filling part of the crater left by the CFL cancellation. I've watched more in these first 2 weeks than I probably have the past 2 years

Streveler’s vs 49’ers
No problem. One of the worst things you can do is panic and accept some sort of dialog that says "you have been compromised. Click here". Closing down your browser is always safe so it's not a bad decision. But yeah I was on that website and was reasonably surprised at how little ads and scams there were haha. It also tells you which streams have ads and stuff. I found a great one with no ads and awesome quality.

What? Of course you have to be careful when going to any website but there's no way another server can learn your email address unless you give it access to do so in some way. There might be a way using JavaScript that it can show you your own email address. But that doesn't mean they have it.

Streveler’s vs 49’ers
It's true. he's a guy that always has his eyes downfield. I can't even remember a play where he honest to goodness ran for a first down. Entirely capable of doing it but that is not at all his game. He usually has a receiving core for days and uses them well.

Everything is mostly horrible right now. It took me a while to figure out how to reply. It's difficult to find the separations in posts. There is no twitter feed which is like half of the reason I come here. Can't wait for the fixes

There are so many traditionalists here that want the CFL to be profitable but somehow only by doing things the exact same way they always have. The billionaire owners have basically only lost money propping up the CFL. Not that I have a strong love for capitalism and the wealth gap but I'm unsure why some think that they are required to continue to lose money.

So the thing that the Grey Cup will sit on is the Grey Cup and the proof is because another poster here says so? What?
