The fact that they are sending out max protect so often shows they know there's an issue. They gotta come up with a different (and better) solution, however.

My first thought when I saw this was, "@Booch is gonna be sooooo mad".

Yeah. Not to slag the guy, but Kolankowski hasn’t earned much rope. He’s just a guy off the street. If there’s video evidence of him getting pushed back and Eli is showing well in practice….

Not even a little bit.

Ultimately it may not be a bad thing taking these early losses. Get Lawler back, return some guys back from injury, maybe get a little hunger back that they haven't shown the past month or so. Come back like crazy after the bye week.

Nothing is getting changed on a short week with one practice. I expect Lawler in and not much else except for injury-related moves.

Are we not looking at that uniform announcement and being absolutely sure Kenny is back this week?

People blaming the D are out to lunch, imo. Not only should the offence have but this game out of reach early (remember when Ottawa couldn't even get a first down?), but we had two turnovers, including the pick-6, that allowed Ottawa the shot at that last drive.

Briggs was chasing Crum on the tying TD too, with no one in the middle.

Couple of big drops on perfect passes too.

That was disgusting. 4th quarter was such a mess.

Ok. Enough of this garbage. Score some points.

This is frustrating.

Well, that’s exactly what I didn’t want to see.

Let's see Schoen go off in the first half and Brady take it over in the second.

Only if you're grading on a curve.

We'll see what happens after Labour Day, as always. We have a top tier of three team. There is still some hope that Sask, Hammy, Cgy can become a little more relevant. Maybe MBT or Streveler come back north and shake things up a bit.

Wade Miller didn't have to deal with Tim Burke on a 4 year deal as HC and GM. He was able to hire his own GM and HC.

I would love a couple of Kevin Glenn calibre QBs in the league right now.

Also for the fact that teams keep firing coaches and paying for 2-3 coaching staffs at once. I actually don't blame the CFL or coaching cap all for the Elks absolutely horrendous mismanagement of their team.

That's probably exactly it. He spent quite a few years in the NFL, probably thinks he can add value to a room. But it may just be that he's on the verge of retiring and is just telling himself, if that opportunity came up, then I will give it another go.

A big reason I'm getting into strength training in recent years. I've always been a runner, but I'm getting big on the idea that having a strong base of muscle to keep off the signs of sarcopenia is the best thing you can do to avoid those late life issues as long as possible.

I still see him commenting on twitter now and then.

****, guys. I’m so sorry to hear you guys have had to deal with this already. My dad had a heart attack in the early days of covid and no one was allowed to go in and see him. The only reason I knew about it was my aunt was a nurse in the ER and called me. But for hours we didn’t know if he was alive or dead. He thankfully survived but even the thought was enough to put me to my knees. And same as you wbbfan, I couldn’t stand the thought of putting my daughters through that feeling. Started to be a lot more health focused again.

Chris Jones seems like a guy who would go all out for him too.
