I have several concerns about this guy. Firstly, he is wearing colours like the TiCats, secondly, every time someone called him by name, the quarterback would hit the ground, and lastly, he ought to be playing hockey in Annaheim.

The big question about Nichols is the degree of recovery of his shoulder. If he is not ready to go by May, that would signal that he may not ever be the same quarterback again.

But conflict requires two or more willing participants, Have at it!

Not always a given. Once I think she complimented my butt when she looked at me and said,"What an ass", but I'm still not sure.

From my wife- I hope it was a compliment.

Doubled his salary by doing that.

aka: you gotta kiss a lot of frogs before you find the prince.

All very nice but I wish that the ownership and GM situations get resolved real soon. This uncertainty is not good for seasons ticket sales.

Apparently Streveler was in Phoenix today working out for the Cardinals.

Its a prerequisite for Rider seasons tickets as well.

Looks like someone got into the eggnog waaay too early.

I have no problem with the Ticat fans posting here.

And Whiteshoes Johnson, although not such a CFL superstar.

You mean a Lolley-Popp? (Insert groan here)

Nichols saved a couple of jobs when Walters picked him up from the discard pile and gave long-suffering Bomber fans hope for the first time in a long while, so he deserves to be honored for that. However time changes almost everything. Nichols is on the wrong side of 30 and has suffered some serious potentially career-ending injuries and nothing is going to change that. LaPolice needs a pivot who is a plug-and-play for LaPolice's offence and Nichols would be a good fit for that and has credibility as well. Walters and O'Shea have a tough choice to make, and not everyone is going to be pleased with the outcome, no matter what it will be.

A. The Argos had crap for talent, even then. B. Good old-fashioned money.

Most players have been around long enough to know that change in team rosters is inevitable even its not pleasant. Walters has more data than all of us to make the decision as to whether Nichols is the best option or if its time to move on and that decision may not even be in his hands. LaPolice will raid the Bombers for players that are both available and improvements on what he has in Ottawa. If a new quarterback is the best way forward, that is the way it will be. Nichols may be the pivot LaPolice sees as the best choice, DeLauriers may well overpay to sign him and away he will go.

Humpf. You probably won't like the holiday song, "Frosty the snowperson" , either.

Ummm....don`t you mean `waterperson`?

Sooooo......the Argos made the Wright choice.

MBT is not going to remind anyone of Doug Flutie, but considering what he had to work with in coaches and offensive teammates, he did better that he ought to have. Moreover. he took some heavy hits and did not wilt, so with the possibility that Nichols may not be ready by training camp day, Walters would be wise to consider all viable options.

Gonna be there, come heck or high water.

If the cost/benefit/risk ratio for Nichols just doesn't look good to Walters, I would be ok with a Bethel-Thompson and Streveler combo. I was surprised at how good MBT looked on occasion in the Keystone Kops offence the Argos ran this year. With a decent O-line and set of receivers and running backs, he ought to look a lot better.

There will always be the odd anomaly in sports- the Riders won with Kent Austin slinging the ball and almost no running game, but this does not happen often enough to make it your "go-to" offence.

Wait, what??? Are you saying that Smurfs are not real? That can't be so. Please, please say that you were only joking. Please?
