    I can't figure out what limits him or any other QB with the right athleticism and tools, as Prukop received the same input as Brown and has a better body for the job.  Is it intelligence, confidence, dedication to the craft, competitiveness, or the case that they may not have been a dominant player from a very young age, forged at birth.  It's a mystery.

    Yes.😉

    $100k if he's on the roster January 15th, 2024. 

    That's before anyone can talk to Dru, unless they trade for his rights. 

    In 2024, Cornelius will collect $100,000 for being on the Elks’ active roster on Jan. 15 with and an additional $46,500 for reporting to training camp and passing his physical, a $200,000 base salary, half of which is guaranteed under the terms of the latest collective bargaining agreement, along with the same housing and travel available. This totals $370,000 in hard money plus the potential to earn an additional $40,000 for being the team’s starter.

    Whistle....yea that is a hell of a roll of the dice.  Though i could see Jones cutting Yukon before Jan 15th, cause he never looked comfortable with Ford as his starter. I guess we see come the 15th. 😊

    I wouldn't be if they keep him for the exact same role. He can go to the USFXLPDTJS and can join us after training camp, provided we don't find his replacement. I think finding that replacement will be tough. Pigrome didn't have it.  

    Prokup was simply the best short yardage player, IMO, in the league. First downs were automatic. 

    Already has Cornelius and Ford. Even if he dumped Ford, he has to pay Yukon his silver and gold. 

    How much guaranteed coin does Yukon get if he is cut? Just curious not doubting your argument.😊

    In a stunning turn of events, the Brandon Wheat Kings' highly anticipated 5th overall pick, the hometown hero Jaxon Jacobson, is set to make his debut against the Moose Jaw Warriors on Friday night.

    At the tender age of 14, Jaxon is poised to etch his name in the record books as the youngest player ever to don the Black and Gold jersey in a Wheat Kings debut.

    Would you like to know more?

    Starship Troopers anyone? 😄

    Again this is very common knowledge and came up often during his last contract negotiation. He can do his work online and doesn't need to be in Winnipeg. He has achieved a lot of designations (??) in the wealth management world and spends a lot of time on it. He's on his last CFL contract and wants to go out a winner. He'll play somewhere in 2024, and hopefully finishes his career in Winnipeg. He's an extremely valuable guy, on and off the field. 

    He is a heart and soul guy of our team no doubt but i compare him to a similar position as AH where it is time to have a reduced role. We have to start making that difficult transition to younger leaders. If he will take a reduced role that would be great. I am hoping 😊

  6. I read it and i will say it, dynasty. No matter what happens this Grey cup we have now played in 4 Grey Cups in a row,that my friends is a dynasty.  This team is special lets enjoy it while we can. There was a song included in the Oilers 80s dynasty video that sang " this is a time to remember cause it will not last forever" thanks big blue for another trip to the Grey Cup! 😊

  7. Damp cold my ass, we played hockey outside back in the day when they used that crazy number to tell you how cold it was and that day was like 3500 + we had ice dripping off every stitch of clothing,scarves,eye brows, we had to warm up every ******* 20 min in the shack... when its -40 and windy in Winnipeg there isn't anywhere in the world with people, that's colder....🥶🥶🥶
