    Drummond only had 3 - 1000 yard seasons... never lead the league in running only an all star 3 times.    First 3 seasons won the Grey cup as a back up in Baltimore/two seasons with Flutie and the Argos.   Went to BC and platooned with Millington where he was usually the 2nd choice.    Solid B+ level player but never elite.    A product of playing on some amazing teams during an era when people were racking up insane yards.

    Four grey cup victories means nothing to me... Stegall has zero ...  it's meaningless.  
    Drummond is a fringe HOFer...  for a few seasons he was oustanding... the other seasons he was platooning and not "The Guy".    He probably should go in... but only if that year has weak candidates who are also on the fringe.

    Dominant players do not play on the 3rd line in hockey.  
    Role players/ depth players are good to have but cannot get paid the same as 1st liners.  Role players and depth players are also significantly easier to find then all-stars.

    Bailey was not a dominant player,  he was a solid and reliable guy but never a guy that I'd think would be a hall of famer.  
    Jeffcoat is several years past his prime and on a downturn with his injuries. Far from dominant on a consistent basis. 
    Grant is a dominant returner and he will be missed.

    Farhan, who was convinced the CFL couldn't survive without the XFL and tried to convince everyone else of this, is going into the HOF. The bar is so tremendously low for entry, it kind of makes it worthless.

    It is fun, this will be my 3rd and likely final year. I'm also coaching flag football for my son's team and I absolutely love doing that.

    Get an ad blocker and use Sportsurge if you dont need/want the highest quality. Or use a VPN to appear American and use thetvapp dot c o, the quality is usually 👌

    It's tough,   Football is more of an "old man" sport so with each year the audience of people who love the CFL purely for the game shrinks.   I think what Wade is doing is the absolute best tactic of trying to bring in young people and families for the gameday experience.  Over time maybe they can build some fans of the sport.  
    When it comes to the tv/streaming audience it's really a tough challenge with the massive amounts of different entertainment options for the average person to select from.  The XFL showed that gimmicks is not enough to build a large audience.  You said that all the other leagues have grown exponentially ,  which isn't true as I showed in my list above.   The NBA/NFL/MLB/UFC have global appeal and billions of dollars backing them so they can tackle the untapped markets and make even more money.  How can the CFL compete with the NFL in doing the same?  Not going to happen and they won't be able to tap into the US market either.   
    Long story ... it is what it is.

    St Pierre used to have a great home made place called Oma's that sadly also closed down.
     
    I've had a co worker who has gone to Winkler and tried out Ralph's German Restaurant and said that it was authentic and really good.   They also appear to have Rouladen.

    I honestly thought it was a trailer for the 2019 Lion King movie,  did they really need a Mufasa movie?    
    I'll be curious to see if it does as well as the 2019 which made a billion plus dollars.   The last many live action remakes have lost money for Disney and they've basically written off Snow White and it's 250 million dollar budget.  They need this one to succeed.
