Booch

until someone else steps up and says..."we want.this game..that game....etc..etc" and show their production and telecast plans

generally if a DB is high in tackles....even knockdowns....can almost go as far as defensive plays....it indicates that they are, or their side of the field is being targeted. It's not like he is racing across the field breaking up the other HB/Corners battles...stats like have been said here are misleading, unless they are certain stats...like completion % against...Targets in red zone...TD's given up...etc....tackles are a poor sta...especially when not shown where it was....at l.o.s...5 yards past....2 yards behind...after 1st down gained.....converted 2nd and long....the list goes on...show me those stats and I will show you who are legit all-stars We track them at team, and scouting and recruitment level....Pretty sure the CFL "stats team" don't and I know our for most part brain dead "media" dont...or even think about that...they just look at 2 things...Int...tackles... Sask doesn't deserve a home game....their pityfull support the last few yrs being a good indication....BC vs SASK if played here as a neutral site would draw more than either place....for the sole fact we would boo thand razz the crap outta both teams affecting their offences...

I think they want/ask Milt to play the clown part...I also think he tiring of it based on the last several broadcasts....As I know him and he not like that "guy" he plays on the panel. Just watch his and Sanchez's podcast for an example.....totally different, or any football related camp....appearance...charity venture...even interview he does... Not sure what the TSN Production execs are looking for, or wanting to produce but amateur comedy hour shctick...and the same ol same ol nothingness isnt what viewers want....or need for that matter

I was gonna say the same....

yeah...I caught that...when he said producer was in his ear piece telling him to not interrupt...or cut off Kate....I found that the best part of the broadcast and confirms they want her to be basically a tool and create the crap we have to ingest

without a question

you're hired!

you are not wrong....he doesnt have the fancy stats...he just gets the job done and is avoided for most part

yup....it does get all kinds of different feeling and reactions doesnt it?...hahaha

lately a lot of the time now...even right after a play they don't even show the field....and aren't talking about what's going on...more times than not you have no clue a guy was injured...let alone helped off the field....heaven forbid we get any decent replays of a play/penalty/challenge....inexcusable really

its was...embarrassing...and sad....definitely cringe worthy Even last week with that unkown country singing kid....who effin cares...focus on the game Even the Orange shirt game...Yeah I get it...they wanna talk about it...etc..etc....well put together a nice pre-game vignette or some actual feature...not during the game while it was actually in play...as we scored a beauty of a TD....Thats just bush league...99.9% of the viewers tune in to watch the game...get some interesting stats and knowledgeable insight...some to even better understand the game....not to see Suitor ooze in his pants over a country singer...a sideline interview with anyone not related to the game being played....or any other stupid skit they do ...Do a pregame show each game with that all in it...not the garbage that Kate and Co. attempt

agree....and thats what Lapo brings...explains the reasoning behind certain moves/plays....and why/how they are designed Suitor add's absolutely nothing....we need more Lapo's....and Zero Suitor's....he has ran his course Play by Play guys too....Ferguson I think is already good...gettiong better and add's knowledge and unbiased play calling for most part...Neilson if paired with a Lapo or a similar guy...would do wonders for him as well...with Suitor he just gets side tracked and led into pointless babble The big issue tho is the production aspect...lame...old...recycled...and definately not at the fore front of anything...let alone cutting edge...this needs to change asap

I hear it was still....moist

couldnt have said it better @3rdand1.5 Campbell has truly screwed his team....and not just this yr....they have a lot to deal with for 2025 and one way or another are gonna have to eat some salary and get nothing to show for it...Teams know they are screwed and nobody is gonna gave them a sweet deal That team is truly divided right now...and it's noticeable Rourke got a huge deal for work done over 2 yrs ago...when he was kind of unknown...with a lot of pieces in their prime....that they don't have now....nor will be able to afford moving forward. Even in his "big season" he was already being figured out...and against teams that were not weak...well he struggled a lot...and from what Campbell has created now...I don't think Rourke is mentally tough enough right now to drag his team across the finish line

Was the refused to play story verified?....I find that hard to believe, and if it true...find it even harder to believe he still there...

I'd say Nichols....Then Ford and Bonds a close second...interchangeable raelly tho teams tend to avoid Bonds...a lot....Griffin factors in there too in the top 3....he's been lights out in all his roles....Holm has been...well Holm...decent...does some good things but has been beat a lot...and lacks physicality...I soooo wanna see him at Safety....All-star there Kramdi...tho "tchnically" a line backer....I will give him props with his work in the box and mucking it up close to line of scrimmage...He goes hard and has made impact plays.....but cover wise...scares the crap outta me and is not good in that role...Hence why I think Younger likes to throw in Griffin and Hallett/Kelly... BA when traditional safety playing over the top and in tandem is good...alone in space...man sometimes I wonder wtf he doing....yikes Bonds has been elite....most games you never hear his name....and even see him much in the TV view...there a reason for that

hmmmm...Is Notree gonna be one those Maston/taylor type late yr moves that totally solidified us...both those were looked at as meh type moves by most I liked what Notree brought in games he played...versatile and athletic....perfect fit for what we do...plus he has experience and knows the league/players

yup....he's good...dont get me wrong but all the yapping is beyond sense now... Strev will be back here as he basically wont be on the books until after Labour Day...so it makes total sense. I hope when back we have him listed as a QB3 but he does stuff on teams...Like Prukopp...and have him come in in 2qb sets but actually utilize him effectively and let him work back to 100 percent "game" health as a multi role guy...Have hin do short yardage but straight forward with no nonsense like they doing with Wilson. It's a given ZC is gonna be back for 2025 and I would be fine with Wilson continued to be groomed and DoleBananna as the 3rd guy. I almost at the belief that with good coaching...scheme and pieces around him he can be more than serviceable as a back-up. Bring in competition for sure, but if we break camp with the 3 we have now...we are in good shape. I have a gut feeling about Wilson if brought along right and groomed properly he could be a legit real deal guy....no need to let a second home grown in our system QB walk I think VAJ deal will be re-worked so BC can trade him, cause if they don't they are screwed....it may involve using surplus money from this yr to give him a bonus but it will be manipulated so they off the hook for the guaranteed part for 2025. They tied themselves to Rourkie boy...with big cash so that is likely the only way out

Makes one think possibly Ayers is gonna ne gone a while...Solid signing....showed flashes in Mtl..good size and still young....and experienced

Production there....or lack there of it is so bad....and whats making TSN look inferior Hopefully the CFL takes things in their own hands and peddles some games around to others....if for anything making TSN pick up their end and be better.....much better

I like Sanchez...and if allowed to just do his players/perspective and analysis and not have to have a pre-determined opponent on the panel he'd be just fine Barker just blabs on and on and for every actual good nugget he actually gives...he gives 10 wtf ones Lapo is the star of the group and if TSN was smart they would have him there with a segment each week, or better yet give him a half hour CFL show a week... Dunnigan is good, and at times you can tell he is frustrated with the other panel members....But I'd love to see him permanent in the booth as his unique way of doing games is gold..... Kate is fake....half time doesn't have a clue of what/why and for most part is under the impression it's the Kate Bierness comedy hour...and it's just sad to watch....she is not supposed to take the lead and be the feature but seems like she is trying...or the production team is wanting that....she needs to throw to the game....initiate discussion between the panel members.....and let "them" discuss....her 2 cents are not required and are garbage.. Milt...meh...when he is being serious and actually talking football he is good....but when they do the differing opinion on things...and the stupid skits...it's bad...tho I am sure he is told to be that way so is it his fault? TSN needs to clean up their act across the board from production....in game production...replays...graphics....and get rid of some of the play by play and color guys...as they are outdated and just not good...Suitor...Smith... They should have a Forde/Lapo team....Ferguson/Dunnigan and find a guy for Neilson...maybe BLM?....but someone who has played and is well spoken

30 yr old db...who doesnt flash exceptional testing numbers...ok...yup...Ford has more a chance than Milligan Dont get me wrong...Milligan is good....but not the way they making him out to be,..He's the best DB in a bad secondary...who get thrown at a ton....certainly he gonna make plays....but this MOP talk is just baseless....He certainly earns Sask MODP award tho....

and just as shitty of a move too lol

perfect scenario being in drivers seat now....we control our fate.....second last game...at home....full jacked house to clinch West. We play our butts off and send another message. to the league that Cup goes thru us....then a nice bye week to lick any wounds....then a nothing game in Mtl to close out the season...let key guys get some reps to stay engaged and sharp...plus allows the subs moocho reps.....then we wait as the other 2 teams beat each other up 2 times (this week, and in playoffs) just to have a chance to come into our barn with us being rested...prepared....fingers crossed totally healthy, and in front of an insane play-off crowd and unreal atmosphere....I like them chances of trip #5 in a row to the Cup

yeah TSN is totally playing the excuse and blame game with their great Canadian hope Rourke BC effectively screwed their season bringing him in...If they felt the need to, they should have signed him to a pro-rated deal for this yr.....and had him as back-up to Vaj if/when he faltered...or got hurt....but nope....they went polar opposite route....and you can see the fractions on that team now....there were guys loyal to VAJ who had zero relationship to Rourkie...and you can see it If you want a text book lesson on how to screw your room...season....look at BC Happiest guy in all this has gotta be the Banana...he gets to leave that scene and very likely play for the Grey Cup right back there....and quite possibly get a ring out of the deal
