Just for fun knowing move clauses, contracts, salary caps etc if the Jets weren’t going for a full rebuild but needed more than a re-tool and a team really wanted to win now and would pay pretty good for one of our core guys to help them reach the finish line this coming post season, what player would you give up knowing you would probably get a small kings ransom in return? I’m going off the board a bit and going with Helle knowing we’re just doing this for fun.

Have the current commish prove this wrong because I think he would twist himself into a pretzel trying to do so.

Would we not want to market the poop out of this especially geared at the 18 year old - 45 year old NFL followers? My 21 year old son who played and loves football quickly got drawn toward the NFL with the Birds being his favorite team. What am I missing here? Losing cause, it won't work, no market, what?

Yup that’s what I meant.

Listen I have that title, it's what I contribute around here while the grown ups talk football.

Yea I was thinking more understanding the game better at the CFL level. And while I'm at it I really hope we utilize our 2nd string QB this coming season more than short yardage snaps. I just can't get over the absolute relunctance in doing so. I'm not suggesting pulling the trigger everytime ZC struggles, I'm suggesting being way more strategic with the back up QB other than hat on backwards signaling in plays trotting out onto the field for 3 and inches fall forward and being ready to go if ZC gets blown up.

Or spend a season backing him up learning the game then take the reins?

Thank you I did not no the ins and outs of a NFL practice roster. I guess I have to give up on that dream. 🙂

Yea instead of doing it the other way i.e., get some workouts, sit on some practice rosters if you're lucky then come to the CFL after getting cut off said practice rosters. Although the coin they make on practice rosters for a few years can be more than they'll ever make in their entire career in the CFL (Paging CFL Commish, over?)

Wow and I thought I was Debbie here.

Okay we have 35 games to go. We are 7-10 points away to a playoff spot. How many more losses before we should realistically throw in the towel? Or thinking more positively, how many more W's do we need out of the 35 games left to realistically make the playoffs. 27/28? 23/24 with some OTL's mixed in? Or should I put all my energies right now in hoping we increase our odds in getting a very high high draft pick? Or just spend all my time on the football side of things and ignore hockey all together?

To be real greedy, is there potential for him to be a receiver as well? Edit, oh yea they had him playing db, but how about as a receiver?

Call me a traditionalist but i still like a kicker with consistent well placed quality hang time kick to help out his cover team. He can do it, i’ve seen it, just like to see it more.

Translation: another reason to add to the million reasons to hate the Knights. Serenity now.

Hmmmm interesting let’s discuss this 18 hours a week for the next seven years.

Let's shoot big and make it so (or at least try) and spend less time worrying about the rules of the game.

His responses were absurd and made little sense.

Had a pretty good sleep, put things into perspective with my 1st world problems, calmed down, all is good. So with this I say I. Still. F’ing. HATE. The. Leafs. Namaste.

Sorry to hear that. It must of been very painful for you.

I f’ing HATE the f’ing Leafs and how they market the team for Ontario and present themselves as neutral. No matter what Chris Cuthbert says about not cheering for any team he markets his broadcast for the Ontario population and an original 6 Canadian team because of revenue. Did i mention I f’ing hate the leafs?

I really don’t enjoy the Leafs not a big fan they smell quite putrid so would it be okay if we could, say, trounce them stomp them kick them square in the nads tonight?

Yup Maple Leafs, Raptors, Jays etc say hi. That’s why the commish and his team and whoever else need to do everything in their power to elevate the status of the CFL so large markets like TO will smell there’s money to be had in the CFL like the money grubbing capitalist ******* that they are.

For the health of the league we obviously need the Argos healthy and thriving but this does look good on them.
