Brady may or may not come out of the west as MOP but should as MOC.  MOP won’t matter because the Eastern media will likely give Kelly the win.  Not saying he doesn’t deserve it but the bias for him has been obvious all season.

Saying this before I add context: I picked Brady Oliveira as MOP.
But: you can't blame Kelly for his "lack" of flashy stats. We start every drive at midfield. We've won the starting field position battle for a stupifying 17 straight games. We have the best kickoff, 2 best punters and best returner. Kelly doesn't even put together "drives" so much as he comes out at midfield, makes a 35 yard throw and then we run it in. Hell, we're usually up by two scores so we don't even pass in the second half but for 2nd and longs.

My reasons are the media likes to hype Toronto teams and general media stupidity.

Punch me in the face. $2.

It's nice to have a guy like Oleary orange waiting to go in.

Dickenson and O'Day deserve 5 year extensions. Kelly as oc too.

We talk a lot about crappy kick coverage, this year......but it might help if the cover team had a clue where the punter was kicking to..
 
 
 
 
 

A win is a win but man, this feels hollow.  The only excuse I have is the Argo D is damn good, easily the best in the CFL.

O is playing fine. The D needs to wake up. 

Disagree.  Oliviera has a ton of yards on them, Bailey over the years, used to get a couple quick ones out to Wolitarsky here and there, showed Calgary a little bubble to Lawler for 10 yards.  We totally dropped that tonight when would have busted the blitz as opposed to some 50-50 bombs or potential INTs.
Also when we go tempo Collaros is much better at going to the quick game.  Could do that anytime in the game.

Ford is still a better runner than a passer but combined with Brown creates a deadly duo that is difficult to defend.   Genuinely concerned for the Bombers when they play the Elks in the coming weeks.

Say whatever you want about the Elks but it's fantastic to have a true Canadian CIS QB succeeding in our league. There was never a doubt he was the best QB they had... their best shot at winning.

The Elks are no joke anymore. Any team that plays them better be ready to play their best game. Or they'll lose like the Riders did. 

Lol, I knew you could do it, Fajito.

That MTL db is awful 

Somewhat related to CFL country wide:  I was in the maritimes the last 8 days and specifically in Charlottetown, PEI looking to watch the Banjo Bowl.  Couldn’t find a place to watch it anywhere.  We were even directed to a video game arcade!  Went to a restaurant with an attached PUB but they were playing MLB.  We needed to eat and therestaurant had great food and nice staff but no CFL.
I find this shameful,TBH. I wouldn’t waste a dime marketing the CFL in PEI.  Maybe we can kick them out of Confederation.

old but gold bob wylie on a football podcast talking about what makes a great ol. 
That blows. I’ve never eaten at a pub that wouldn’t change 1 tv to a game or fight for me. But the maritimes are not fertile ground for the cfl. Better chance of making it work in Toronto. 
 Sell them off to the yanks! Or maybe trade for some strategic spots of land.

They can give you an average range for most injuries, but no one knows how each individual is going to react.
And teams/coaches players who have given out those ranges in the past are subsequently lambasted when it takes longer than they said it would, or if the player goes back earlier than expected and then is injured again.
Simply put, there is zero upside for a team to give those details and lots of downside.

There is no chance that combination of 6 game savings totals 325k. Not even close. Jeffcoat wasn't on the 6 game. Darby maybe 35k in savings for one stint, Hansen about 60k for two rounds, Rose about 40k, Lawler about 60k (we paid a considerable amount of this year's salary up front so it is just the prorated remainder), Miller about 80k for two rounds. So for  the 6 game we have saved approximately 270k based on their reported salaries from 3DN. Keep in mind that I could not find any info on money up front on any of these players except Lawler, so the rest were prorated based on their full salary and that is unlikely. 
To get up over 300k some guys will need to finish their 2nd round of 6 game.

Wonder what Brady is going to cost them? He's now established himself as the best RB in the league although Harris was the highest paid at $165k last season but may have taken a discount to re-sign with the Argos this year as a backup.  Butler signed with the Ti-Cats for around $125k, so Import RB's are still not being paid much, I think it will take somewhere around $140-$150k to re-sign Brady on a long-term deal.

Schoen easily for me.  More versatile and arguably more dynamic.  Lawler is a home run hitter for sure but Schoen is like the 7 catch 100 yards weekly type guy.  And he was before we had Lawler too.

We understand and accept the mission.
