Something tells me they still manage to sign Schoen. If they can’t I think signing the Canadian RB over an American WR is the better call. Much easier to unearth another American WR. But I still have faith they get it done.

Interesting that they have signed a few American RBs in Smith and Brown. Wondering if they go back to an American RB? I know we still have Augustine but we would need a good Canadian back up for him. And if they do go American at RB where do we sub out for a Canadian? This of course is all a moot point if Brady comes back.

Richmond technically has never signed an actual yearly contract filed to the league...Just practice roster agreements...so yes....he could be on a minimum deal but I bet we pay him a bit more...insignificant in the grand scheme
I bet too...but no way were we gonna offer him more than Stan...who took a shave....and truthfully...we kept the right Tackle
Technically we kept the “Left Tackle” 😉

That’s a lota chedda for a guy going on 34. But in saying that he’s only missed 3 games since 2017. Glad we didn’t pay that much to retain him and good on Yoshi for scoring that deal.

What's even funnier is that for the first 8 games while Mueller was running his rocket ship last year, I don't think Maier attempted a pass beyond 8 yards. Maybe that's an exaggeration, but I do know in like 3 games preceding Mueller's demotion Maier had not attempted any passes beyond that. It's not like it was poor pass pro related either, Calgary has a pretty strong OL. It was just baffling to watch.
According to Riderfans Mace was the only candidate they truly considered even though we now know he got the job by default really after Milanovich and Buck both withdrew. Rider Stronson pretends not to be, but is the biggest O'Day apologist out there. When Dickenson was hired as HC he was touting it as a master stroke pulled off by the Riders because at least 2 other teams were about to offer him their HCing job. lmao. You can't make up stuff funnier than that.
Yup. And speaking of the Riders lowballing people this is exactly what happened. Buck withdrew as he was not offered nearly what he had expected.

I was very confident he wasn’t going anywhere. Buck will be the Bombers next HC when the time comes.

As I said in the other thread. It was obvious Kelly was getting MOP (even though I disagree) and Brady was getting Canadian. But there is one award that tops MOP in my mind and that’s Grey Cup MVP which Brady will win and Kelly can’t. And that’s motivation enough for Brady to take it.

Voting happens in 3 phases (team, division, league). The final one had a deadline of kickoff of the Eastern Semi-final. So there's zero chance to consider anything that happens in the playoffs.
Brady will get Canadian, Kelly will get MOP but Brady will be getting Grey Cup MVP

Glad the Riders did the right thing and out right released Marshall. No need to hang on to that dead beat.

And now, being retired, I am happy to welcome him home again and into the RoH as soon as possible.
Yup. I was bitter when he left and what he said when leaving. But the Bombers did the right thing and at the time I don’t think he fully understood that. We may have never seen what Brady O could do had he stayed. He ended up with one more ring in the end. Good on him.

He has said many many many times this year that it is. From the start of the season it was announced its his final season as he's going to manage and coach the junior team in Nanaimo that he used to play for. And then Kristina Costible asked him again this week just to confirm and he said, yet again, that he's done. And then he posted on his social media a picture of hanging up his cleats. He is very much done.
Yup done done. Should have been done last year but I think he held out for one more ring. The only ring he will get now is the Ring of Honour at IGF.

I expect MOS & Ritchie's decisions on Biggie's replacement will be best ... they keep inserting players that they are familiar with & likewise their team mates .... lesser players are more because of greater harmony ... it might why MOS has stuck with Jackson ... he has knowledge of where ZC will be ... a newbie at the FB position might not as much ... and we don't know what effect Jackson's indominable spirit might spread to the people beside him ... he might be the least talented player on the field but it is just possible that Michael O'Shea might know what he is doing ... maybe its NOT a blind spot
I wouldn’t rule Biggie out just yet. I talked to him this morning. He said the injury wasn’t a “bad” one and he is hopeful to play Sunday. Could be just towing the O’Shea line and not wanting to reveal anything. I’d say it’s a better than 50% chance we see him play.

Montreal making the Cup has also just mind ****** Rider fans who now think somehow their season would have turned out differently with Maas and Fajardo.
Really couldn’t have been a better result for my viewing pleasure.
But...you don’t want to be the footnote in history with the picture of Fajardo standing there holding a Grey Cup. I can’t believe the line is only 6.5, but still need to take this seriously.
Faj Vs Zac. 2 ex Rider QBs. It’s glory to behold.

Hearing AJ O (the wolfman) to the Riders… gross
