You haven't heard numerous professional Athletes in many sports say when they're traded away or a teammate is traded away/cut or they are called out for their performance etc etc that they understand this is a business and its ruthless? I certainly have. Adam Grant for one. No where did I discount the importance of Glue Guys but Glue Guys need to perform as well. It's not one or the either, i.e., they're great in the lockerroom but not so much on the field. You can have both.

I think it's more 'anything but the Bombers' hate. We've been to the show five years in a row. Let's make it six to exhaust them even more.

JJ looks fantastic in Blue and Gold. Welcome. ps its a Grey Cup win or bust this year so time to get to work.

That doesn't seem to make its way into the pro leagues for some.

BC sucks. Nuff said.

Wouldn’t this be a great opportunity for the Elks to run an actual 2qb system with Fajardo and Ford? I know its unheard of but would love to see a team actually attempt it. Get the offensive coordinator to think how that could look with the talent they have. Whats the harm in trying for a quarter to see if you can get any traction with it?

When the chips are down, adversity hits thats when I’ll be interested to see if Rourke has grown into being a mature qb.

Not sure exa Tre Ford throwing into three defenders versus 1 receiver. Yikes.

Heads up play by ol guy just to get in front of defender and not pop in and risk a penalty on Tre Ford’s scramble.

I’m going to try this reply at work.

The CFL has some work to do.

That’s pretty cool.

You may be right but I hope you’re wrong. BD is just a guy who is so easy to cheer for. I just hope he ends up where he best contributes.

yup and when the food came out at midnight that usually entailed crackers, meet, cheese, pickles etc that did wonders on everyone’s breath and sharing of gas.

Or he’ll learn quickly on the job and progress into a really good CFL HC. Thats my hope for him.

Well we all know it was Jake Thomas’s fault.

I'll take Argos suck for 200 Alex. Oh and thanks for the reminder Debbie. 🙂

I'm just telling you what sport executives, professional athletes say on a day to day basis, sport is business.

Domination.

Let's see if Arbuckle has any signs of a Grey Cup hangover. Let's see if this guy is actually for real.

And that's what I think would exactly happen to me if our paths somehow crossed at a gym knowing how I can sometimes test people's sense of ha ha in very spontaneous ways. 🙂

I get what you're saying but we are told ad nauseum that professional sport is business and in the business world the literature, the major thought leaders stress to stop running your organizations like you're family with one another because that's not how high performing organizations effectively run.

Not agreeing necessarily with PD’s approach in calling out JO but lets hope it wasn’t just because a players fees fees were hurt. Im sure there’s multiple reasons to why a coach with his record gets released?

And this is thing, it's not hating on these players as some put it, it's the frustration (at least from some of us) of thinking we could field better talent at these positions (with the greatest respect of course). I'm sure these two are great human beings but c'mon loyalty is great until it's a detriment to the goal and mantra of the team.

Oettinger versus DeBoer? Advantage Oettinger.
