  1. Football players would have to inject foam directly into their brain cavity so it doesn't slosh about on contact, adding more protection directly to the outside is putting more lipstick on a pig and does little to increase protection. Airbags work because they dissipate the energy of a collision over a larger area and reduce the acceleration of the body, the second factor being the most important.
  2. Walters doesn't have 2 nickels left to bring in FA's from the cold, what you see is what you're going to get. Agree Bighill played reasonably well last season and stayed healthy up until the last game, some people are exaggerating his liability. If Kyrie can take on the leadership role, he's the logical successor.
  3. I think Lancaster also qualified under the Naturalized Canadian rule for a time.
  4. They're already behind the 8-ball when they choose football as a career and fail to make an NFL roster, deciding to further limit their options isn't going to help prolong their career.
  5. Watched a great short 6 episode series "A Man in Full" with Jeff Daniels playing a Southern real-estate mogul in financial difficulty, short and sweet and don't have to worry about waiting for season two, it's over in 6.
  6. No doubt, have the ominous feeling sports gaming profits are being funnelled off shore to enrich Russian oligarchs and other nefarious organizations of ill intent.
  7. Big factor in both being Canadian, not brought up thinking football is their only option or escape and maybe took the free education segment of their scholarship more seriously.
  8. Footage of OL/DL one on one action. As far as I can figure in order of matchups. #91 Jamal Woods vs. #64 Dobson #57 Kyle Samson vs. #58 Huge Wallace #92 Rivers??? vs. #58 Ivy #5 Willie vs. #60 Keith Khalil #96 Schmeck with the spin move vs. #67 Kola #57 Jamal Woods vs. #57 Vlahogiannis #90 Fox destroying #67 Kola
  9. Why would the Als even let him in the door? If they want to be competitive they need to upgrade their roster, not rely on short term fixes like old man Lemon.
  10. Wut??? You can buy booze in Steinbach now?
  11. Opinion: a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge.
  12. Plenty of candidates, but as long as he stays healthy unlikely to happen.
  13. Sure would be nice to have Bighill's future replacement in the building this year getting involved and taking reps. so the progression at MLB is clearly spelled out. Maybe Biggie would accept a lesser role and help convince O'Shea to use the new American/Natl. rules more effectively as well. Ease him towards the door before he signs another contract with unrealistic expectations of playing another 3 years. Same thing for Bryant, get ready just about time to move on.
  14. Could be Kramdi is one of the smarter players on and off the field and O'Shea recognizes that combined with his grittiness and work ethic being similar to the skills that sustained his own playing career. May also be why he sticks with BA year after year instead of replacing him with a flashier, healthier player.
  15. Cam will be appearing at Islendingadagurinn in both Gimli and Hecla July 1-3, even if he claims to be of Svedish decent, close enough.
  16. Problem is Ed only talks to the same 6 guys he's comfortable with, time for some new blood, the video segments should be handled by someone motivated and scared to lose their job. Everything you need to know is all right there, in those wacked out eyes.
  17. From recent interviews I think Yoshi is well aware he'll be in the spotlight for making the move to Sask. and the bump in salary he received, he seems very concerned about disappointing anyone. You can bet he's well prepared to put his best foot forward and will probably show up to camp in better shape than in years past.
  18. I would argue in the current media market Canada has enough football fans for the CFL and TSN to do very well, problem is at least half of those football fans choose to follow the NFL and ignore the CFL, and the advertisers follow the numbers.
  19. Just a way to free up a few more TC spots, a number of teams are using this tactic.
  20. I believe Lawler was required to stay away from practices while on the suspended list last season.
  21. According to 3DN's list of top paid returners Grant earned $110-$115k last season, missing all but 8 games he wouldn't have cost the team much SMS.
  22. Her contract expired, after that the Argos can hire whoever they choose and are under no obligation to provide any explanation for their actions. That's often the stark reality for workers in non-union environments, there is very little job security.
  23. Hate to say it but Sask. would be wise to put themselves in a position to be able to dump old Trevor Harris at a moments notice with no financial consequences to their cap. Rourke probably still wouldn't want to go there.
