Damn, those two along with Biggy being gone would be an absolute disaster.

Why is walters neck so long lol

It wasnt. And that's not how a commissioner works.

You're criticisms dont make any damn sense though. The CFL needs to bring in a more diverse crowd....so they should not celebrate or talk about the diversity that already exists in league....?? Wtf Also...nothing lasts forever...gtf over it. The world would be a lot better if people stopped refusing to change/adapt/evolve.

Any Starting Canadian LBers available this off season? Besides Muamba and Hurl...

My favorite part is how all his examples got playing time. My 2nd favorite part is how he is comparing playing time of an All star Vet and Rookies.

Completely agree. I don't understand the shouldn't get politics involved crowd. Life and Politics just go hand in hand now. If we don't want politics in sports, then stop the national anthem. Stop the military days, there could even be a case to stop certain commercials from airing. It's just a ridiculous point of view.

lol. Ok...but you can't accurately compare how defences play him when he is starting vs coming off the bench for a play or two. That's just bad science. It is far more accurate to say he is better as a sStarter then off the bench. (based on those stats) Then to say what you're claiming. There's no way of knowing how the D adjusted to him coming off the bench compared to how they played Nichols. We can assume, but still no solid evidence. The only thing those numbers show for sure, is he was more accurate in games he started, then games he didn't.

lol So what these stats show (if correct) is that he is more accurate when he gets more playing time or is starting than he is coming off the bench....thank you for proving everyones point!

I've never heard anyone say he isnt an accurate Qb...I dont see how anyone who has watched his body of work in the CFL could say that. Unless you just watch one specific play.

Huh??? I've never heard that before about Streveler...you're really going to hold one pass against him? (Dont worry about him hitting that play at least 2 other times this year....) A green as could be rookie playing in his first semi final?? Lol. Streveler needs more time. Nichols will give the team the luxury of allowing him to develop at the right pace. I'm still certain that Streveler will be the starting Qb instead of Nichols by week 5 or 6...and he will finish as the starter come November 2019. He doesnt need years. He needs reps. I remember when they signed him and he made the team, everyone was talking about his size and speed. Except Lapo and Oshea...they spoke about his mind. The kid is very smart. That's what has and what will speed up his progress.

I'd honestly feel better if they moved on from Couture. Neuf has proven himself to be very valuable. Not that couture hasnt, but not quite as much as neuf. Move on from couture, hopefully one of gray or spooner can take his spot.

Designated Mexican is not a part of any deal. This seems to be a rumour going around. I believe Arash (huge surprise there) was the first to mention it. But Every person involved in the league has denied this as something that would be a part of a deal...TV or otherwise.

Different game. Especially for QBs.

Reilly to BC. Jennings to SSK along with a new contract for Collaros. Bridge to Edmonton to back up/split time with Glenn Bo goes back to CGY and they get V Adams out of MTL...either via trade or FA...I'm not sure if he is a FA. Winnipeg stays put. Along with Ottawa, Hamilton and MTL TO goes with Franklin

I know the exact amount. Down to the square foot. But I'm not telling!!!

I'm not joking. It wouldn't have been that much. It really isn't that big of an issue to install before they laid the turf down. But sure, cheap out...it obviously didn't hurt the game or the image of that stadium in anyway.

That was due to the natural turf. They replaced it a few years ago now. They can't use that as an excuse. Should have spent some money on a heating system under it.

I like pretending I know what's going on behind the scenes too. So I'll drop my completely uneducated opinion. He should focus more energy on markets that time and time again, prove they dont want a cfl team....instead of markets that are so determined to be a part of the CFL they sell season tickets and have a team name before a team is even announced as a possibility in the next year. And he needs to start making up for the human element in football. No mistakes are acceptable. If a player gets hurt. There must be a flag/penalty/fine or he and the league clearly dont care. Anything that might bring this league any global exposure is far to close to the expansion of the 90s and must be stopped immediately.

And yet, both did exactly nothing this year. Woods is too much of an injury risk, and Taylor is still living off one good year. I honestly don't think I'd pursue either this off season.

It really is too bad about Moe. Fantastic play maker. Clutch. Shut down Sam and Safety. This is the type of stuff you never like to hear, but know is coming eventually. Good luck to him, and thanks for the memories Moe! On another note, I'd like to see the bombers move on from Demski. Or at the very least, have him in the z position and move Wolli inside. Poor ball security and lack of vision have become very apparent and were costly throughout the season and playoffs.

Fair enough. I read it as all 3 being separate. Though, Adams and Dressler were FA signings. Wolli has been coached up. But I do agree agree with the overall message. They haven't found that game breaker.

What team are you watching? They've literally had other GM's comment on how many FA's they sign. Our Scouting has brought in plenty of quality players as well. You are right about the WR's though. I'll give you that one.

HUH? Have you not seen the FA lists of every single team this year? Every team has a huge opportunity to improve their talent at basically every position.
