Love Lawler but think we may lose him and I understand completely if Walter's won't show him the money again. We haven't got value for his pay the last 2 years. 
He likely has a very similar contract to Schoen in front of him. He can choose to be here and take an incentive laden contract that will require he bets on himself or take the money and run I guess.
You can't regret what was fair market rate after the fact. But I agree that there appears to have been a reset. Too bad that didn't happen a year or two earlier

Not just 175...
 

Schoen is back on a 1 year deal

This back and forth discussion on Kramdi is one of many great examples why it’s fun to be on this site. 

I had a bad feeling this might happen to Woli.  Clercius did well enough in subbing for him while injured to get that NAT WR position I guess.  Just guts me that Woli won’t be around.  One of my favourite BBs.

Totally agree with this. Yes it's a loss to the team, but time marches on and it's caught up with him. CFL HOF is awaiting his arrival, and I hope it's in blue & gold. 

Bighill signing here after coming back from the NFL was nothing short of HUGE! He's been nothing but an amazing leader on and off the field. His involvement in amateur football makes waves with kids everytime he's around. I can't thank that guy enough for his play. And his influence off the field will be felt for a long long time. Whether he realizes it or not.
"That's Adam Bighill" heard weekly at U of W by children being introduced to the sport. The guy is a legend.

For those screaming and crying about unfair practices ("...***** ***** *****...")
Here's the timeline from Our Man Tait:
"And just to be clear as to how this unfolded from a club perspective, head coach Mike O’Shea told Bighill in early December he would not be receiving a new contract offer from the club. Bighill represents himself and GM Kyle Walters said they spoke not long after the player’s meeting with O’Shea to confirm the news."

I don’t love JT as a front line contributor but I think people dismissing him as reliable depth are off the mark. It needs to be that role for him, though.

We move on from Biggie but give Jake Thomas a new contract. Go figure. 

Now that he’s gone, I’m looking forward to speaking of Bighill as one of the best, without talking about his diminished play. 
B.A. is sweating

I hate to be the one to do it but, people need to get off of demski's back. 
The kid was playing on one ankle and the fact that there was no better option than him isn't his fault.

Collaros never should have gone back in when he couldn't throw without a glove. It changes how the ball comes out and it's not like they were lighting it up prior. 
Honestly this one is all receivers to me. Lawler mia. Lazy on the pass he stepped out on. Easily could have kept in bounds with some effort. Demski couldn't catch a cold until garbage time... wheatfall was worse than usless and I believe with some effort he could have prevented the first int except he was just waiting for the ball. I guess I can't complain about Wilson but geeze... that's it. And some people think we can move on from Schoen. Get outta here with that. 
I don't blame the game plan, I don't blame Zach, he got 0 help from his receivers.

That deep ball right off the bat with Zach testing out the glove hand has to go down as one of the dumbest ******* things I’ve ever seen.
And if that’s not coaching, I don’t know what it is. That should be so quickly addressed on the sideline before they take the field. Hey man, you’ve never worn that thing before, let’s feel it out before we sling it deep.

1 zach. Terrible before and after the finger. 
2 Buck inexcusable play call and game plan 
3 the WRs. Lawler, Demski, lucky especially. 
crappy honker mos for poor execution and getting badly out coached 3 straight gcs 
honorable mentions to Willy, brady, garbutt, bonds, nichols, ford and the ol.  

JY's DB deployment will be a huge story of this game... Late season addition of a guy like Nick Taylor may prove to be massive.
Looking for a Michael Griffin pick too...

Longer limb...Clercius...Argos may focus on others and the big bodied kid with the good hands may have a day vs the smallish Argos db's

A repeat of last weeks game in terms of intensity and execution and I'll be a happy man.  The added benefit is enjoying going to work tomorrow!
 

Here's a bold prediction... Tyrell Ford wins MOC.

Break Arbuckle, Protect Collaros celebrate Grey Cup number 13.

I take it she did not return your calls?

Oh my. Sad, and yet a great story. Michael's grandfather is the exact kind of grandfather I strive to be. I have a big WBB chair I take to my grandsons football and baseball games.

Yup, we dont need any injured Bighill's or Shoen's this Grey Cup. Go with the healthy guys who got you here.

I'd be ok with Woli for the injured Hallet brother.
