Goggins was great in Vice Principals too.

Yea..there's gotta be some kind of formula you would think.

OK...and it appears there is a floor for the spending but no upper limit.

So it does count against the SMS then from what I interpret above. If so, holy crap there is a lot of media getting this wrong. Or is it an extra 110k over the SMS spending but subject to extra audit?

It's the dirty little SMS loophole we've used since they introduced it.

Yea..read an article about his time in Memphis. Barely got reps because they felt he was undersized. He's got good WIL size for the CFL.

Yea....Moses is worth the camp invite just because if his health has turned the corner he could be a freak out there.

He was but successive injuries derailed his college/pro career. A real bad string of luck. If he is now healthy the guy is a blue chipper. He was also labelled as being a little undersized at his position in 4 down ball. He is average size among CFL Lbers tho. Man....if Moses finds the game that made him a potential top 10 NFL pick prior to his injury streak we will have ourselves a baller. However, just to temper expectations he was an early camp cut in the UFL last year. Gotta be a guy our scouts worked out and were impressed with.

Soooo...the tinfoil hat is coming out. Yesterday, Nathan Rourke looks close to possibly returning to the CFL, exactly a day later the league suspends Kelly for 9 games (probably longer). Hmmmm....if it is announced that the Argos will get a cap exemption on Kelly because of this one has to wonder about some things PARTICULARLY if after the dust settles Rourke is an Argo. Not saying Kelly doesn't deserve what he got. Just that the Argos may have not kicked up much of a fuss. IF Rourke were to sign with the Argos, I would have to wonder if behind the scenes the Argos were trying to get the league to push Kelly out and give them the cap relief on him. Just a disaster as a professional.

I'm not even sure what 100% effort from Milt would look like at his age. Even if he did, would we even know? Love Milt but the guy is 54.

Well, Kelly's character flaws have come to roost just as I and many other predicted. Bluto, I know this smarts but todaso. If he is able to come back after 9 games, and that is a big IF given his history, will that give the Toronto media enough time to annoint him MOP again over more deserving players? Maybe not the consummate leader but misunderstood pro you thought he was Bluto?

He would school the best DBs around the league all season long too. That was my favorite part...but yea...training camp he ended a lot of guys pro dreams.

There has never been a better receiver in the history of the CFL and I will never, ever be swayed in that opinion. Milt was the only thing worth watching through many very lean years for our team.

If he makes any DBs look like assholes out there then I will have concerns about our scouting department. No offense to Milt, but he is 54 and hasn't played in 15 years. Our DBs coming to camp should be the elite just out of the NFL recruits in their low-mid 20's.

The protests won't effect anything imo.

Grant missed most of the last 2 seasons, but yea when he was in the game he was dynamite.

Yea, footwork is pretty big for any OL in pass pro. However, these scouting reports tend to focus on NFL capability not CFL. How far off his foot work is for the CFL is anyone's guess....although several teams appear to have passed on him because of it. That being said, same thing was said about Yoshi prior to him being here and when he shed a few pounds his feet drastically improved. Sadly, with aging his footwork looks to be dropping off again, but he gave us some very good seasons.

IF Covington comes back with the right attitude and work ethic, he will be a very tough guy to play against. If he is Mr. I used to be in the NFL so I am above the need to put in effort, then he will be added to the list of players that came from the NFL and flamed out. I hope it's the latter, because if it's the former the Leos DL just got scary again. Our STs will be better by default, because last year they weren't very good. Adding better players and depth will help, but really I expected out STs to be much better pre-draft. Now I am quite certain that they will be much better.

I can't recall it ever happening before. Odd indeed. The year the Riders picked Onyemata was different than us taking a flyer on Manu. They had very poor NAT starters and depth and only had a few picks that year. It was a dumb choice by them given the circumstances. For us, having 10 draft picks, a flyer/future pick or two was almost compulsory because there is no way we can roster 10 new NATs anyway. I guess my point is that whether or not a flyer is an acceptable pick or not isn't so much what round it was done, although that's a factor, it can be a good pick or bad pick based on team need for players as well.

Yea...tip of the cap to the local U team by the Bombers.

My guess in that this was far less than a coincidence. They probably talked to a bunch of these guys to gauge interest, these are the guys that said we'll come play, we brought them in for a looky loo and then drafted them. So many posters here forget that finding talent is only part of the battle for recruitment, we get turned down by legit talent all the time. Our pay scale and location on the globe makes identifying talent only part of the equation, getting them here is just as tough as finding them. I get that some of the guys we passed on were getting legit NFL looks....they probably didn't want to come North is why we passed on them. True. Never heard of a single one of them and probably won't recognize their names after years in the league because they will toil in obscurity for the most part.

Could be a matter of who is willing to come play in Canada for chicken scratch under the Global player designation.

I don't believe any professional person would nuke their career prospects by making false allegations. After making allegations such as this her career prospects certainly took a hit as she will likely be labelled to much of a hot button to hire. If this was a simple case of contract not renewed she probably has a quality job in no time. However, make the allegation and employers will be hard to find. Therefore, I doubt she is lying completely about it.

I wouldn't...but I'd give up some aging veteran talent to get one. Not going to name names.

If Mullinder is picking them 4th then they will finish near last. Last year he had them winning the Grey Cup.
