that kick last night will cost him 1300. He's already donating more to charity than I do in a year, and he has 17 games left.

I was considering going, after that depressing mess last night I think I'll be watching from my couch.

This caught my interest. Went to register, draftkings registration unfortunately requires more effort than I'm willing to put in at this moment so I'll pass on it for now.

Just to be a contrarian? Right now there's a gap from 1/2 to 3. The Jets have gone off the board a bit with other first rounders, but I can't see how they do it picking 2nd.

2009 - 17 games (1 game on PR, 17 started) 2010 - 4 games, cut in favor of prefontaine 2011 - 18 games 2012 - NFL 2013 - NFL 2014 - 18 games 2015 - 18 games Best I can tell he has missed 0 CFL games due to injury

he must have more faith in a Lapo offense than some of us if he thinks he's going to be making shorter kicks than 45 yards.

Medlock is basically 87-90% on FG every year, and makes quite a few long ones. I'm quite happy to have him. Hajrullau's good year is the same as Medlocks worst full season

question based on a comment I saw on twitter. Are the endzones in BMO not the proper depth due to space restrictions? Got the impression that they're 18 yards deep.

i feel the same about both of them. For what it's worth I've been in Edmonton 7.5 years now. I own 0 pieces of Eskimos gear. Last year as bad as the team was I went to Vancouver, Calgary and Ottawa to watch them play. This year the Vancouver bombers trip will be on again, not sure about others.

Wouldn't surprise me if they can't. With the amount of money TSN is paying to air the games, I'd expect something in their preventing the games being made available through any other means outside of TSN.

there's your error, expecting bright moves from a riders fan

Or it's people who just want to wear a Dressler jersey to a Bombers game against Sask hoping he has a monster game in a Bombers blowout victory.

I traded in carbs for steak bacon and cheese, and a bit of pork and chicken. If I want a snack, no more chips, cook a couple pieces of bacon.

I might start buying merch again this year. It has nothing to do with management. It's the first year in a few that I might be able to wear some of it. The bombers don't really sell fat guy sizing. Down 100lbs this CFL off season (technically 98.5 as of this morning, but i'm going with 100), I may be able to get into some bomber gear again. (the secret is bacon, i have spent 0 time in the gym)

pre-season, backups get some opportunity. The starters will make the threads in regular season as you watch from the couch

So did you buy a new jersey because Taman is gone, because there are new jerseys, or because she can't wear her Dressler jersey to games anymore I would expect most teams merch revenue to be up this year with the new jerseys

I'd be skeptical that the average fan cares too much about who the GM is. Every fan cares about winning/losing, the minority, such as the types who go on forums, care about other the behind the scenes stuff. If merch is down significantly, I'd be surprised if that many people didn't buy merch because of who the GM is.

Because you went and talked to each other instead of watching jab at the media, not you. You did better than I would have, I would have left if they weren't doing much.

Which local media do you work for?

In a league where after 3 years a guy can leave why sour the relationship early. No other league would a guy drafted first overall get a minimum offer.

Our field is 5 yards longer. With NFL goal posts currently 10 yards deeper than ours in the NFL you have to move the ball 5 yards further than in the CFL to have the same length kick (assuming you started on your own half of the field) If we put the goalposts at the back of our end zone, to have the same length kick you now have to move the ball 15 yards further than in the NFL. So if you start around your own 25, and figure you need a 45 yard kick to be in reasonable field goal range, you need to move the ball 47 yards. With your proposal to get into field goal range you'd have to gain 67 yards of offense to get into field goal range. As well if your range is 45 yards you'd have to get to the 18 yard line before you'd kick a field goal. Do you really only want to see field goals attempted from inside the 20? I can't imagine why you'd want that change.

pretty much. When most seasons bombers kickers seem unable to consistently hit any kick over 30 yards, even from the 20 yard line you'd be looking at a 47 yard kick. You'd basically take field goals out of the game. You'd also take out returns from missed field goals which is one of the more exciting plays in the CFL, and make every missed field goal almost an automatic rouge since if the guy didn't have the leg to make the back of the end zone they wouldn't try the kick. The CFL rules and end zone size make it necessary to have the uprights at the goal line.

I just think it's so much easier when you have a right and lefty on every pair. All you got to do is look at L.A." -- Mike Babcock Not sure whose opinion carries more weight.......
