Another govt....led by that dud Pallister....I sure hope the polls are dead wrong and occasionally they are...At any rate I'm sure glad we made our payment and guys like Friesen can suck it up..

45 minutes ago, Rich said:
He has grossed a total of around $1.5M over the last 4 years (less taxes, agent fees, etc).
It depends if he wants to keep playing football for $100k - $200k Canadian ($70k - $150k American and dropping) or is ready to move on to the next chapter of his life, whatever that may be.
Very true that he has made a lot of money in the states. Could be that he has it invested and getting a good return...Could also be that he would like to still play the game that he luvs and would like to add to that investment anyway he can....A 150 grand American is nothing to sneeze at but pales in comparison to nfl money granted...It will come down to how much he wants to stay in the game and that is a factor only Bilikudi knows..I think we'll find out in the not too distant future. Sure would like to know if Kyle has sounded him out or has bothered ever.
-
Bilukidi is a professional football player...realistically if he's not playing in the NFL (looks that way) then where does he play...I suppose we could trade his rights for a player of equal value, if he has a problem coming here...but I don't sense that or have heard anything in that regard...I hope to see him at tc and lord knows we could sure use him. Hoping for the best.
-
So is Bellefool the oc or just on the staff...He certainly has experience ...didn't seem to help him here though...Why do I get the feeling that B.C. is headed in a southerly direction, like occupying the wests basement.
-
High expectations in Regina that's for sure...I don't see any miraculous turn around for them and if the fans think that, they'll be in for a rude awakening...Jones has to finish cleaning house before he even contemplates searching for better calibre players ..Sask. has some older players with fat contracts that need to be dealt with...There's going to be a lot of upheaval before they get back on track, and fighting to stay out of the basement in the west will be a challenge..I'm sure before the 16' season is too old, realization will set in and there'll be a few droopy faces in riderville.
-
That's what they call him in Cal....rebusrankin....After the season he had...... yeah it's Mr. Rogers
-
.....Yeah tearing it up after they sent him to an eye doctor...He had a vision problem and we didn't pick up on it...Edmonton did...He still gets the dropsies but not as often,,,Maybe we can turn up a Rogers but the way our scouting organization is working, that's a stretch..
-
...IF Tyron Brackenridge has got anything left in the tank...I'd say have a look...It would be worth it just to see him lay some head snapping hits on those yokels in the next province..I'd say he has a nasty outlook concerning Mr.Jones after he was dumped today...As for anyone else on that list...a big ho-hum..
-
...We need to sign Bilukudi and another credible O line guy from the fa's....oh and sign Andrew Harris on Feb. 9th....That's a good start..
-
...First of all...solid signing...next is if we keep Neufeld we better have a decent replacement in the wings in case he goes down....O line still needs a little work but I'm feeling a whole lot better now that Daniels will be in the fold for the foreseeable, Goosen as well.
-
....Ottawa is going down a very bad road...They are going to be looked at as a pariah in this league, and will definitely be on the rest of teams in the league ' no discussion with our guys unless we are compensated list'...AND if this flys does Edmonton get to retroactively get compo. from the Riders...This looks like there's going to be a real 'gum fight' with a real loser in the offing..
-
....Just tweeted by Arash Madani....Jason Maas to become Esks. new head coach...Sorry don't have the official release yet...No big surprise for sure.
-
...O'Day seems redundant and his official title can now be the .. 'The Riders VP of Standing Around' ( sorry stole that one from a former poster) it sure fits.
-
///Doesn't bode well for future 50/50's ...However mistakes don't just occur in that type of draw....Look at some of the fiascos in the Lotto Max and 6/49 draws that have occurred over the years...You buy a ticket you takes your chances...Buyers expect things to be run flawlessly though...ain't gonna happen.
-
...regarding Maas as head coach....I think we know first hand how co-ordinators making the jump to the coaching top rung fare..Look at our guy and you'll see the transition is not an easy one...I expect if the Esks. go that route, that the learning process is going to be a lot longer than a lot of people think...Surrounding himself with credible people will be key and I don't see very many available at present..
-
...Come on home Mr. Dyce.....I like his CFL knowledge and would be a great asset here to help this team regain some credibility
-
...Making something out of nothing....IF we sign Andrew Harris in fa and there's a pretty good chance we will...I think you'll have your answer for next year...
-
...I remember when Damon Allen was quarterback in T.O. and his final season there...The previous year was pretty good and the argos decided to stick with him as their no 1 the next...They used to call him gumby as he was almost injury proof, then the inevitable happened and father time caught up with him that year...He was pulled half way through the year and was done...Henry Burris...the next Damon Allen??we'll see.
-
This is a good oc hire with the most experience going forward...Paul has been around the block a few times and as 'just' the offensive co-ordinator is a positive...I'm sure he'll have a few wise words for Mike O during the season and should be a big help on the sidelines..I hope we're getting the Paul LaPolice that was the offensive co-ordinator of the riders Cup run (thirteenth man and not his fault) that schemed their successful offence that year...Jury's out, but I think Paul is a very capable coach that will finally lead this club out of the losing crap of the last few years...
-
If I were Mr. Hervey I would be in a definite contract negotiation run with his fa's before they jump ship...From Grey Cup to re-up and in a bloody hurry..
-
...Great news....I was a little worried Wally B. would come calling shortly if he was to ever hit fa.... Leos are in desperate need of solid o linemen and he is from those parts..Too bad Buono.
-
.....R.I.P. Mini-Mack...you were one of the best Bomber players I had the pleasure of watching...Carrying those big D linemen on his back into the end zone was a real feat and treat... Speed, low stature and powerful legs made this guy tick...Too bad his time here was cut short by a narrow minded gm but he still managed to make the NFL...Passed away far too young..condolences to his family..
-
Saying that fa's will most likely re-sign with their current club is fine BUT you better have the cash under the sms to accomplish that...IF fans in Ham./Edm./ and Sask think they're going to re-up for small increases, when there are other clubs waiting with better deals...good luck... Cash talks and when you have very few fa's to sign like we have...I like our chances of signing a few..We shall see come Feb.
-
...How was that winning goal not ruled ' not enough proof to overturn it' right off the bat, and the refs going with the original call of a goal for us..What a bunch of dithering...looked like they were bending over for the Caps....In any event good solid win and I hope we can build on it

I didn't say I hope the NDP win another majority...it's just that I don't think the options are that great...IF we do get another govt., I hope it's a minority so we can chuck the buggers if they start screwing up..I have a long memory and was never thrilled with cons....federally or provincially.
