No, the court essentially ruled that the letter sent to Williams prior to the 2012 season was incomplete and misleading. They (the Ti-Cats) were obligated to provide in writing a confirmation that they were exercising Williams option (the +1 in a 1+1). The letter also had him sign in confirmation that he received 'my 2013 option year letter' along with a poorly worded offer to extend his contract by one year at the same rate of pay as the previous year... it's confusing in part and in whole; the Ti-Cats meant to sign him for a third year at the same rate of pay; and it's obviously not in Williams best interest to do so. Add to all this the fact that the CFL was knowingly dealing with a contract adviser/agent that was not registered with the CFLPA, and you've got all the grounds you need for Williams to be declared FA. It's a dry read, and I don't recommend it at all. But that's my take on it.

http://www.thespec.com/sports-story/4055951-ontario-curt-rules-former-ticat-chris-williams-now-a-free-agent/ This article has a link to the court ruling. Before anyone craps all over Williams any further, it actually sounds like the Ti-Cats tried to pull a fast one on him, and nearly pulled it off if not for this ruling.

Did I say "no #1 receiver?" I meant no #1 receiver, AND no #1 kick returner. I'd say Woods is making a stronger case for himself every time he touches the ball, but I see your point.

Agree on Poblah. His best game as a Bomber came in the LDC. Give him the chance to either silence his critics or to further prove that he can't catch in traffic at all. He's on thin ice.

Good to hear Hall is well enough to throw a ball. It sounded iffy yesterday.

Bummer for them. It's not a lot of fun riding your backup for weeks at a time.

Peach is American lol oh, ffs. Then consider me lukewarm to the idea. LMAO. He was born in Vancouver... Washington. people assume any white non QB must be CDN.

I'll take it, provided he is over his injury. He can play teams, he has the right passport, and I bet he can stay onside.

It's all been said above.

That's putting it lightly.

they were only ever there to fill out the roster of teams that bluto's Boatmen beat every week... I think you are going to get a run for your money this week... could it be you'll be sharing first place?

Sooo glad I took MTL QBs in the Fantasy Draft this year. 'The Sackos' are dominating the cellar with authority.

I liked this piece from CFL.ca http://cfl.ca/article/steinbergs-mmqb-the-gap-widens-in-week-8

IGF when we win tonight

Like you don't know

Also down to one strike after Harris/Sheets failed. Come on Chad Simpson, make it happen.

LMFAO Gold RG, gold

Wow is right. <--Without words

Thanks for sharing. If that's the case, at least Mack doesn't have to spend all weekend with the axe hovering over his head. If the leak was meant to force the BoD's hand... mission accomplished.

Rough game for the Als. Messam looked decent, over 6 yards a carry. But that's about it. That crowd is only going to get more hostile.

Aha I see, it's really just missing emphasis and quotations... Burke doesn't literally know 'nothing' about an offense, rather he leaves it in the hands of people who (presumably) know more. Or: Tim Burke knows vastly more about an offense than he claims and only lacks experience as a coordinator... even though he has been quoted saying he knows 'nothing' about an offense. And I'm sure that's obvious to you, so I don't know why you would take him so literally.

I'm not sure what more to say. It's all there, try again.

I'm sure coming up with a comprehensive offensive gameplan is a little different from knowing whether or not a QB has good mechanics. Burke doesn't literally know nothing about an offense, rather he leaves it in the hands of people who (presumably) know more.
