  1. Everywhere, always, on every team, no exceptions? Or just BLM and Mike Reilly? Is Collaros overpaid or is he being compensated for winning 2 GCs?
  2. I don't agree that it would only lead to further overpaying QBs... good GMs will continue to be good GMs, spending evenly and appropriately while benefiting from having more money to spend on potentially better import talent... bad GMs will continue to be bad GMs and overpay out of desperation, import or otherwise I think eliminating the ratio entirely is plainly a bad idea. Reducing it by as much as half could be a very good idea. I doubt we'll ever find out though.
  3. Loved him on Lucky Louie.... "See... you're just on your first wife... with her you're gonna make all the mistakes. Then with your second wife you'll try to correct those mistakes and make worse, new ones. Now your third wife... yah.... there's a marriage."
  4. Swapping QB's faster than Leo DiCaprio swapping girlfriends, only they're getting older instead of younger
  5. 3:45, 7:02, love this guy already
  6. I would sincerely prefer this over Loooooong Live the Niiiiiiiiight
  7. Snoop moves more units in his sleep than the Reklaws ever will
  8. Unless the opinion is that no matter who makes it to the cup from the East they won't beat a team from the West
  9. The other vote was from Toronto according to Madani. I always knew Pinball hated the CFL
  10. Watched this breakdown about Hernandez the other day. Jomboy has the best baseball videos. He says if the union won't let them fire him then stick him at 3rd where he won't see that much action because he is brutal behind the plate.
  11. I suppose it's possible... an odd sort of inside joke, if that is the case. DT isn't the only one seeming to criticize the hire, so to me it's one of those 'where there is smoke there is fire' situations. Oh well, he's not our problem for the time being.
  12. I saw nothing outrageous but this tweet was enough to start some feisty discussions CFL reddit had some gossip but mostly from the usual 'anonymous insiders' so who knows what the truth is
  13. He's going to take down 'Fake Conservative Doug Ford and his leftist elites' The Ontario Party... yikes. Derek Sloan is deplorable
  14. I think we've been too narrow minded... what we really ought to be doing is going to 5 down football. More downs = more fans, it's so simply obvious!
  15. The question was asked aloud quite often, how long until we just go back to the way it was before? As early as May 1 is apparently the answer. Unless something changes between now and 8pm I finally get to see my first live rock show since the before-fore times, but I wouldn't be going if proof of vax wasn't required. I'm ready for things to open back up but requiring proof of vax at the door (and then actually enforcing it) is playing a big role in how and where I spend my money.
  16. https://3downnation.com/2022/04/25/bombers-no-longer-requiring-proof-of-covid-19-vaccination-for-fans-attending-games-at-ig-field/ Effective May 1, 2022, the Winnipeg Football Club will no longer require fans to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination to attend Blue Bombers games at IG Field. The change in protocol will also apply to events held at IG Field unless the event has its own protocols that differ from the club’s protocols while all policies and procedures will remain subject to change.
  17. It was always going to be Masoli/Evans imo. This guy came with some hype and a 3 year contract... nothing but smoke
  18. Not sure what you're even arguing about or who with anymore so I'm going to back away slowly. You've lead an amazing life dude. The stories you could tell jfc 🙄
  19. The league shouldn't dictate who a team is giving pay bumps too. We could give him a raise and he could still theoretically be the 'lowest paid and 'worst on the roster' if it fits in our caplet us do it. The arbitrary cap makes no sense in building the program. It tells guys they can become victims of even middling success by hurdling the low bar of 'good enough to play teams and see some snaps' Really don't follow your logic here. If the idea is to showcase global talent why would you take the designation away from the first guy good enough to bring attention to globals only to fill the position with some new exotic bench warmer? Good thing for the ratio (welfare for Canadian offensive linemen basically). If Canadians lost their National status for wanting raises they'd all lose their jobs to the next American kid every time. If Globals have to lose their status to be able to get a raise we may as well scuttle the whole program.
  20. I think the only hitch is then having to find a new Global to replace him. The talent pool seems a bit thin so far, you'd think stripping the designation from the program's greatest success story so far would be counter productive There is going to be a talent gap between the most promising globals and your average American prospects. The best globals will reach such heights that they are too good to play for minimum but not good enough to beat out the next warm American body at their position and then what's the point of having this token global spot if it can't be filled by the best globals? And I'm not pooping on this global position, it's not like it's taking away a position from someone else, but if someone excels at the spot why not let them get paid for it?
