I still recall being one win from hosting a playoff game or missing the playoffs entirely under Mike Kelly. I had faith on tap, back in those days... I believed in my core Kelly was a misunderstood genius who could lead us to the cup. I must have been crazier than he was.

I think SSK pulls a win out of their asses. Powell is a good RB returning to Ottawa after a huge season there. Looking for a big game from him in particular. The great thing about taking the riders in pick'ems is even when you're wrong you still get to enjoy a rider loss, like a soothing balm of rider sadness

This guy knows what's up. The beef jerky is also top notch.

Begrudging laugh

Perhaps it was Derel Walker... no idea what his character is like... not sure Williams was ever an option to keep around (NFL was a foregone conclusion), so if anyone was 'weeded out' perhaps it was DW.

Jeez, we're up to 27 unanimous votes at this point! Great minds think alike?

Andrew Harris

So, so much of this. One man, one kit. You're responsible for yourself out there.

Nope, I always ask if they got their Banjo Bowl tix yet. The more Blue in the stands, the better.

Crap, that's right too. Edmonton comes crashing down hard this year.

No way this team stumbles out of the gates. This place will be rocking. We are going to steamroll that BC O-Line and bury Reilly early and often. 1-0 The Edmonton Redblacks aren't scaring anyone. Contain Walker, get to Harris, profit. 2-0 Ottawa will be easy pickings. Literally, easy picks all game courtesy of Davis or Jennings, whichever. 3-0

It's not a crazy idea! I probably read around 99% of the posts made in the CFL forum as it is, yet even I think there is room to improve. We'll get by the way things are, though, if we have to. As a chronic lurker I'm just glad for content, however it's organized. Once the season actually starts there will be plenty to talk about and more varied threads will hopefully pop up.

Honestly be more hardcore

This was reported a week and a half ago wake the **** up idiot!

Discussion of an NFL game? IN THE CFL FORUM? move to general per the rules

Grant, Stegall, Walby, Joe Pop

A little early for victory laps but this is promising news.

"My ultimate goal is to retire as a Winnipeg Blue Bomber," Matthews said Friday in a conference call from Los Angeles with reporters. "I want to my name to be up there with Milt Stegall and Terrence Edwards," he said, referring to two of the greatest receivers to play with the Bombers over the past two decades. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/chris-matthews-receiver-rejoins-bombers-1.5131360

"Deep Thoughts with Mr Dee"

Travis Bond was a pretty solid find in 2016. I'd argue he'd be one top notch offensive player (if the only one)

It's always going to be a numbers game. For every good Canadian there must be a hundred as-good Americans. Wouldn't be surprised if it's even more. What we really need is more loopholes for guys like Ben Cahoon and Drew Wolitarsky to slip through and become eligible "Canadians" Interestingly, Wolitarsky (my favourite Canadian on our team right behind Andrew Harris) wasn't born here, didn't go to school here, and didn't grow up here. It's his ability to play ball I like, even more than his shiny new passport.

I'd argue the only American players we can't seem to find with the same success as other teams is at receiver. We do a pretty good job digging up DB's (Walker, Alexander), LB's (Santos-Knox), even RB's (Marshall, Flanders) since Walters took over.
