The poll on CFL.ca right now asks "Will James Franklin play for the Argos in 2018?" 91% of the fans say no. I bet about 90% of the vote is desperate Rider fans. We will find out soon enough.

Dry your eyes, Bono. The Riders aren't going anywhere. It's only 15k in damages dontcha know.

Whoa another CFL insider! Every article says they are still assessing damages but you already know it was 15k! Man these rider fans really have their fingers on the pulse.

Humbug!

I'm generally brutal all around so perhaps the less I'm heard the better

Keep your eyes peeled. Last November I snagged a like-new Ibanez hollow bodied 5-string acoustic-electric bass with a hard case (shag carpet interior!) on Kijiji for $400 (might have been $450). Had to drive an hour to pick it up but it was worth it. It's great for practicing unplugged but as soon as someone is rocking out on their 6-string acoustic I get drowned out and need to plug in again. It just doesn't kick out the acoustic sound like I had hoped. I'm convinced only a big stand-up bass could be heard around a campfire.

If only Randle could be in 32 cities at once

Phrasing

Apparently he was injured in 1990 and served as an assistant coach for the Florida Gators before resuming his playing career in '91. His coaching roots run deep it would seem.

I just saw Kerwin Bell's name being tossed around on twitter as a candidate for HC in Montreal... he and Kavis Reed were teammates years ago.

Isn't one of our former HC's famously quoted as saying every position you start a rookie at will cost you a win? There is probably a lot of truth to this.

...what's so funny? Roc Carmichael. Brandon Alexander. Brian Walker. All CFL rookies. All played in the secondary. All took turns giving up big plays.

Out of any of our players in our secondary I'd say Loffler is likely the 'worst' in coverage, but he brings a certain presence to the field that makes up for a lot of that (passport, too). Carmichael was victimized early in the season which did nothing to help our passing yards against stats. Tried and tested veterans like Randle and Heath were not the culprits; more likely it's the rookies in the secondary, a passive coordinator, and a middling pass rush that are to blame.

I didn't see this mentioned yet: https://www.cfl.ca/2017/12/13/redblacks-re-qb-trevor-harris/ Trevor Harris re-signs thru 2018

Where is that book titles thread at? "Every Day I'm Hustling" by Chris Randle He wouldn't be Chris Randle if he wasn't trying hard all the time.

I wonder if that has ever worked for anyone. I bet that in general, twitter does more harm than good for players that use it. Note that I haven't seen the tweets.

Just jokes. The whole Addison Richards debacle will always stick out like a sore thumb for a lot of fans (and to a lesser extent Brendan Morgan and Garrett Waggoner), but overall it seems like he drafts really well. A good number of Walters' draft picks are still making an impact in the CFL (Derek Jones, Jesse Briggs, Ettore Lattanzio), not to mention our Canadian hogs, All-Star Taylor Loffler, and the emerging talent in Trent Corney. If not for a couple suspect picks (and they were suspect at the time) he'd be an A++ draft manager. I've got no major complaints, but what kind of Bomber fan would I be if I didn't ***** and moan about the past from time to time?

Walters is a savvy GM, I have faith he can secure a trade that will allow us to accomplish both.

I'd take Tim Burke back as DC. I don't think anyone can question his abilities as a defensive coordinator. We're a few years removed from the season of new lows... surely he's snapped out of his thousand yard stare and gotten his head back in the game by now. Would he want to try and resurrect his career here, though? Assuming he even wants to? I'm actually a little surprised he hasn't resurfaced yet.

"I never denied anyone access to players. I have never and will never. I never denied access to coaches. Have never, will never." "I am a very friendly person" Wally stays on as President and Head Coach? I didn't see that coming.

New GM: Ed Hervey. Wally says he will have carte blanche to retain existing staff or hire his own. Apparently there was only ever one other candidate. Nobody looks good in orange. Ick.
