    I really hope we play the best players we possibly can under the ratio rules. Whether  that is 7 NATS or 10. Couldn't care less how many we start if they are our best option. If they are not that's when we need to start counting how many we are using.

    Also, Ford is not a raw rookie. He was in our system for a year before leaving. He should be way ahead of the rookie curve.

    I get that many here don't feel Biggie is as good as he used to be, and that is completely true. However, he is not nearly as bad as people here are suggesting. Is it time that we look for an alternative? Probably, because he will likely continue to decline. However, suggesting he couldn't make another team's PR or isn't a top10 MLB in this league is nonsense. The guy is now just an average MLB. He is neither an asset nor a liability. He has gone from MOP to average. Average isn't terrible though.

    It is immature. Good thing no one was remotely suggesting that they not use them because they are butt ugly. A person can say they are butt ugly and not be implying players not use them on that basis.

    Or even take a look a FA's if Biggie is going to miss significant time. Kyrie at MLB has served us well in the past though. 
    He wasn't awful, he just wasn't MOP calibre anymore.
    Biggie still excels in aspects of his game, but he is no longer an every situation dominant MLB anymore.

    If Biggie is off the books long term he most certainly does have the cap space.
    Yes, that pesky all star award was a mirage. Even though it wasn't his best ever season or anything, the guy is easily still in the top half of the league as a MLBer. EASILY. Don't believe that...fine...but the guys he plays against think enough of him to name him the CFLPA all star. That may have been somewhat a reputation accolade but I am 100% certain they didn't vote a guy outside the top 10 as their choice of all star.

    For sure. 
    I got no issues with any player who makes the conscious decision to protect themselves against brain injuries. I just wish they could make them look a little better.

    I completely and 100% agree. IF Bighill has an injury that will keep him out any length of time there is still time to get on the horn and bring in a dozen IMPs that would do better than Gauthier.
    It is a massive downgrade, let's not pretend it isn't. Bighill wasn't at the top of his game last year, and probably never will be again, but suggesting that Bighill/Gauthier is a wash is a gross exaggeration.

    I can't remember who said it, Brendan Taman maybe but for sure an ex-CFL GM, that the hardest part of recruiting talent for the CFL wasn't finding good players it was convincing them to come to Canada after you find them.

    How you could have someone around that bet on their OWN games, you just can’t trust someone like that. Tells you exactly what their organization is all about.

    I'm thinking he doesn't want to go out as a cheater and I think the only way the CFLPA will appeal your case is if you are an active player.

    Manitoba legislation allows an incorporated urban municipality with a population over 7500 to incorporate as a city if it so chooses.
