Wild and Leggett are in the same boat, both are great when healthy but the last few seasons their participation has been sketchy. There's not going to be much loose change left in the kitty when F.A. opens.

Rule Changes For 2018
I would hope that the "eye in the sky" becomes the tool it has the potential to be and communicates with the on-field officials to overturn egregious calls immediately. Jesus works that way, why can't they?

Around The League: 2018 Offseason
I wouldn't read too much into that decision, I think the Calgary game was a special circumstance as they needed to lock up second place. They knew Mitchell and a lot of the Stamps starters would not be playing, they knew the weather was going to be sloppy crap and they were going to keep the ball on the ground for most of the game. They had both Harris and Flanders in the backfield so choosing LeFevour with his running ability to execute that game plan over Davis is not a stretch. Best of all it worked out exactly as planned.

I agree, I've seen LeFevour move the ball effectively in the past and believe he has the skill-set and brain power to be an effective #2 QB. Almost every passing play he ran last year was designed to throw the ball at full gallop to surprise the defender, I think if they expanded his responsibilities and options and let him settle down they could get decent results from him.

I'd take LeFevour over Durant or Glenn based solely on their sideline demeanor. Durant Glenn LeFevour

From his perspective as a prime Natl. DE, I can't see why he would accept a discount after putting in two solid years of service and establishing himself as a team leader.

I'm just as surprised, change usually requires a cap victim or two.

I wonder if they promised Foketi some playing time to get him to re-sign or if he's just happy to be on the payroll and willing to wait for an opportunity. Either way, great to have him back.

US Politics
I find the following to be both troubling and disturbing in regard to fiscal responsibility. I guess when the debt reaches 100% of GDP the U.S. will simply make the debt "disappear". "While the individual tax cuts are due to end in eight years, the corporate tax cuts will be permanent. "Advocates say don't worry because Congress will extend all those individual tax cuts," Burman said, but that's an argument he has trouble buying, considering the $1.5 trillion in cuts over the next 10 years is expected to accelerate the growth of the debt from 77 per cent of gross domestic product today to about 91 per cent of GDP. "It's a weird argument. If we couldn't afford to extend them now with debt at 77 per cent of GDP, how will we afford to extend them in 2025?" http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/republican-tax-bill-donald-trump-winners-losers-1.4459219

Not much of a celebration really, no cake or medals awarded, no speeches or pronouncements, simply a photo from a common cell phone and a tweet of the visit which is pretty much standard fare these days. Your offence sensitivity meter seems to need fixin, damn Donald has put everything out of whack.

I think he has great physical attributes, he just has to catch up on the mental side and not get caught completely out of position.

Bellefeuille to Montreal?
Just the fact that a number of decent candidates have renounced their applications after an interview indicates Kavis is probably going to drag the Als. further into the weeds before he's done. I believe the man has no common sense.

Good to see Reinbold get another shot with the Lions after he received the short end of the stick in Hamilton during the Austin melt-down. He's a positive influence, nothing wrong with being a lifelong S.T. coordinator if that's what you're good at.

I don't follow soccer at all but I heard on the radio recently that 3 Toronto F.C. players were earning in the range of $5 million each per year, it turns out to be very true. TV ratings compared to the CFL are quite low with around 100,000 fans tuning in to watch a game on a good night, gate receipts in relatively small stadiums wouldn't generate near enough revenue either. Anyone know how the economics work in M.L.S. to allow them to pay those kinds of salaries? Upon further investigation I found this list of published salaries. Toronto FC player salaries for 2017 Toronto FC player salaries for 2017, as released by the MLS Players Union, as of April 15, 2017.

With Hervey as the new GM in BC the purse strings are going to loosen, Wally might have wanted to cheap out on Manny's renegotiation but Ed is the guy that put up the big bucks to keep Bowman in Edm. so he's not afraid to spend Braley's money. Sadly Braley will no longer be able to afford that nose hair trimmer he desperately needs.
