Agreed I think the PR money thing is a red hearing; it is not as bad as people seem to think it is. I mean, salaries in the states also are not super high. I do not know his educational background, but in all intents and purposes he makes more money on the CFL PR than the average Canadian makes at their regular job. So although it isn't NFL dollars nor is it going to make anyone rich. It isn't the poor, almost living on the streets type of cash either. I mean we also state that they have a family to support at home, but it seems to me most of them are in their lower 20s with no families to support, just starting out on their own. I would bet the average 20 to 27 year old Canadian makes even less than the average Canadian so I mean, really.... to me the decision was more he didn't like his roll of not being on the active roster and felt he deserved to be and thus he would have more opportunities with another team if he was not on the PR at all to allow any team to negotiate with him and allow them to know he is a free agent that is interested in being on the active roster. Perhaps he has a family business or something back home that pays well that he wanted to attend to which is also the case; being off the PR would allow him to do that and just wait for a phone call if an injury or something happens. We just don't really know.

How is that not enough, that's 3000 a month and hundreds of thousands of Canadians live off of that every month and their housing is not included nor food. So I say bullshit he can't live off of a PR salary.

I know I mean he was a good receiver that our team picked up; it doesn't make sense; he didn't even get a chance to do returns or anything which is something he had also done in college ball.... he will definitely land on another team unless there is something else going on?

They are changing the CFL football? Including the size? I mean I know the NFL football is different size than a CFL football

I don't believe that was a blow to his head; you watch it was chest first. The helmets maybe lightly touched but honestly that was more just because both of their bodies colliding and his going forwards as his body went backwards. I mean; I honestly believe the call on the field was correct myself and TSN is just going over board on that blow to the head thing

Man should have taken three earlier; and than tried to run it in here; you have two RBs that avg more than 1 yrd per run and you don't do a running play just baffling

I would have ran from the 1 yard line; why throw?

If they get it in; do they have to get down quick enough to do the conversion? What happens if they score and the time runs out?

Do you put collaros in to try to throw a 20 yard throw even though he is cold? I mean is that the best percentage you have of making a td?

should have took the three points; and tried for a td later but I think this is game; was hoping for a hamilton win..... sadly didn't get one

I mean he didn't get it but man I swore he was reaching way more....

What a shitty spot he had reached way further than that....

I thought Knox was a little late with that push as well to be honest;

Would be awesome to get a punt block here!

I mean; if they dont call hamiltons illegal contact then i would say you can't call this

You have one too many poors

Yeah I mean; at least illegal contact instead of PI but really; surprised JJ didn't win that challenge

I dont even know if that was an INT i mean it looks like he purposely threw it to gainey; there was no ticat even close to that ball

Washington just cost them seven points; just horrendous

Lots have to improve but I would only be pulling Nichols to keep him safe from injury, not because I felt he was not performing. The two back set didn't work this game, perhaps we switch flanders out for thorpe next game and give it another shot.

So do we still feel that Ritchie hall is the best DC for us?

Noeller, 17to85 I know you two know calgary well, where would be the best place to catch the game today?

Nope I was thinking he was an MLB but I wasn't sure. Rush end makes it more difficult to fit him on the team specially since it seems to be our strength and we don't know if he is better than our current talent. Though it could allow us to go import in another spot.

Harris actually seems like he could become the Blue Bombers Nick Lewis in the future; when he is ready to stop taking those hugue beatings he has the ability to get the YAC with those under routes to be a good second down conversion type piece. Once Flanders has developed allowing us to always keep two Running Backs on the field at one time. I too want to see more of Flanders this game just because I felt if we are going to have two running backs we need to utilize both of them so that defenses do not just focus on the one. I did feel though that Flanders was not picking his holes well the last game which could be why he didn't seem to get used as often.

With Dressler back I actually think that will allow Lapo to open up the playbook; I mean I still wish we were having poop Johnson in the game as well somehow but we don't. I'm sure we will get burned for a long run as well as burned for a couple big plays but I'm confident that our team can keep this one close. I feel the team with the last possession of the ball is the team that wins this one and I believe that we have the ability to ensure we control that game so that we are the ones who have it. Should be a high scoring, close match-up. I don't expect either time to get blow outs like the last two rough rider games.
