I think he's just expressing frustration (in his annoying way) over fans wanting to see some changes and then constantly complaining about the changes. How long have we said on here the CFL should absolutely be exploring streaming services? They not only get one, but they get one that is going to significantly increase league revenue while only using 1/4 of the games. Even if I was unable to get a free DZN stream, I would still consider this a win for the league. The sky is falling people will just never be happy until TSN pays 600 million a year to broadcast the game while using John Madden to do PBP. I'm not sure what the "use a streaming service" crowd thought would happen when the CFL got on with a company, but it would always cost money to see it.

2 profitable teams was good enough. Watching the world of sports broadcasting leave the league behind was good enough.

lol Castillo + another asset for a QB would be the steal of the decade. Not a chance that happens.

Whenever something is streamed, there is usually a way to get it for free. It's just a matter of finding it....Sounds like this might present a really great learning opportunity for some MBB members lol.

Interesting... I have been thinking of canceling my cable because I only watch sports on it. IPTV is great, but I can't let go of my pvr!!!

Is DZN taking a game from TSN every week, or are they just airing the TSN on their service? I don't see how them taking the game would be beneficial for the CFL. Streaming the TSN feed makes sense....but just taking a game a week would suck.

I believe so.

He made it clear when he said as much to ed tait.

I agree about the Merc thing...it's not as clear cut as he just chased the money. He made it clear he was planning on retiring a Bomber but it didn't seem to be a shared dream from the Bombers....anyway...Basically everything else you have said could be matched up with most/all of the top receivers. (which speaks to the lack of talent we had) He's a bit long in the tooth and if I'm picking a WR to bring in, he isn't the #1 choice. I'm not sure giving a 32yr old WR a 3 yr deal will work out. I very much doubt he sees the full amount or if he does, if Hamilton gets the full value. Injury concerns are part of the context on why the deal might not be a great one for Ham.

Some missing context includes, hatcher having more targets at 145 (Lawler at 144) and Hatcher having 102 catches compared to Lawlers 86. Hatcher having 16.5yrds per catch and Lawler 16.8yrds per catch. Lawler did have the edge on TDs and 30+ plays.

Well according to his mom on twitter it was a disrespect thing. According to her, the team told him at the end of the season he was next man up and then they just handed the job to TE without any real competition. Which is of course outside the norm of any professional sport...you know...believing in a high draft pick over a career 3rd stringer off the street. The media also pushed propaganda on the masses to get people excited about TE and forget about Wilson....that's according to his completely unbiased mother.

I also want to see more of Davis on O. It's hard to get a clear picture on anyone's ability in pre-season games when watching. What'd I give to be in the film room and hear what the coaches are saying. Singer obviously stuck out. But what happened to make those plays work? Who did something a little extra if anything? etc etc. I know he's likely done...but I really liked Reese's burst. That guy could get after it, but he just needs to control himself a bit more.

Yes, but to be fair. He's bounced back from consecutive bad years before. So the question is, can he do it again?

It has to have been injury related, otherwise it just doesn't make sense.

And now it seems to be normal again...sorry Rich not trying to make your life difficult.

Very slow again. Both on the App and the website

That was an entertaining pre season game.

It was under thrown, but that could still be a result of the wr slowing up. Perkins could have seen him slow up and tried to take something off it....resulting in whatever that was.

Elgersma made the right read, just threw a bad ball

Williams and Woodley have been noticeable on D. In a good way. The game speed is nice. Good pace

Professional teams like to sign players who have family members running their mouths on SM right? This likely wont hurt TWs chances on landing on another team....

I was looking forward to watching the QB battle. Certainly has the appearance of hurt feelings...but who knows what happened.

Ok...so Perkins to the PR?

From people who have gone to camp...I've heard Perkins arm strength is limited. That wide side out/corners may not be possible.

Its hard to say...he could have just aggravated it, as I think he was a bit early on the recovery side still. Either way, I dont have an issue with Schmek like some others. Kid has a great motor and is solid depth imo. Hope hes back before the full 6 is done.
