  1. Maybe we draft a NI receiver... Also just because we lose burnett... this doesn't mean we can't bring in another young guy from down South to replace him.
  2. They dumped Durant , that alone gives them money for Dennis. The rest of the signings were not that large. I do hope that they give a lot of cash up front and that it comes around and bites them in the end.

    He can finally have his fight with a now faded Anderson Silva...

    The UFC really could use a new matchmaker or a strategy for building stars and keeping older legends relevant for the casual fans. For example why in the world would they put BJ Penn who has looked terrible for years against a young guy who clearly is light years ahead of him at this point in time. BJ Penn has a following and can be an entertaining fighter and a nice draw for a co main event to complement a card. By him being completely destroyed in the cage it kills his legacy and really does nothing for Yair Rodríguez's ascension. To me it would of made more sense having BJ fight against someone that he could at least have a chance of beating while making it entertaining. I also don't understand why they put Jared Cannonier against Glover Texeiria? Glover is nearing the end of his career and is/was ranked #3... so instead of having him fight in a title eliminator they put him against an unranked opponent who barely got by a D level fighter in his last fight? It looked so bad on PPV when Glover kept taking him down... it made the product look really weak on screen. Cirkunov would of looked much better in that fight and yet they let him go to Bellator because they don't want to spend a few extra dollars? It's bizarre that Fox cards can be much higher quality then PPV's that they expect people to put money down on. Same goes with prelims on fox having more star power then the ppv cards... I almost miss the days of Spike TV where the free cards would be entertaining with only one or two stars while the ppv cards were loaded top to bottom.
  5. Go figure... we score 3 goals with Helle in and we win... if only someone on here wasn't a fan of that stat....
  6. LaFrance's best game in the regular season was 11 - 52 yards... hardly a world beater. The guy is unproven and Saskatchewan is taking a gamble.

    I am concerned of the direction the new UFC is going... the previous PPV was a stinker and some of the main events announced for the future are really mediocre. I assume Mike Goldberg was canned because aside from reading the ads he really did not elevate the action with his PBP. I wasn't a fan of the 3 man booth for the last event... Cormier talks way to much. It was much better back in the old days when Randy Couture would sit in on the main events and chime in occasionally. Did anyone else watch the last ppv? I thought Anderson should of lost and the main event the ref should of deducted a point with the fight being a draw.
  8. I thought Walter has concussion or injury issues these days?
  9. It's a gamble for the Riders. Worth the risk for them IMO. No one knows if he will pan out or flame out yet.
  10. Wowza.... Julien coaches a different team midseason.. how often does that happen? Maybe we can Maurice and sign Noel to take over the club
  11. Riders still have not addressed their NI issues...
  12. I don't how today is a bad day for us? What did we lose out on?
  13. I wonder if our club is allowed to recruit new guys who can fill in?
  14. I'm not sure if this makes me a bad person or not... but I'm more so excited about the Riders missing out on potential free agents then us signing any more new guys?
  15. Jackson to the Argos makes sense.... don't they have zero receivers signed as of now?
  16. Did anyone watch the latest John Oliver.... absolutely hilarious
  17. Lochard can always be signed again...
  18. Perreault is the perfect guy for us to trade away... he can at times have some flashy stats... but in the long run he's injury prone, to small and disappears for long periods of time. I'd be thrilled if they traded him and his larger contract for a guy to play on the 3rd D pairing.
  19. Click the Babble link at the top of the page
  20. I assumed they would take a step back... but I did not expect the complete lack of effort. It also makes it much more difficult to swallow when the young guys who were suppose to make the mistakes and cost us games (Laine, Ehlers, Morrissey, Copp, etc..) when these guys are the ones holding the team up.
  21. Lawless has been saying all season long that this is not a play off season.
  22. Iannuzzi is back with BC for 2 more seasons
  23. Sucky that CFL.ca is only doing brief updates on the hour... I was expecting a show...
  24. Marquay McDaniel re signs with Calgary
