WPG. Own thread coming soon.

CAL . How much do you tinker if at all? But somethin aint right here

EDM. Lots of room for improvement.  Reilly another year older

SSK. Canadas team has lots of FAs, Carter leaving. Huge question marks at QB

BC. Lots of smoke but less flame than grease fire in MTL. Whole new coaching staff at least

TOR. Turning point to build on or just a nice story like OTT last year?

HAM. Soap opera . Key FAs looming. Collaros. Manziel thing.

OTT.  Trending down

MTL. Grease fire until further notice.

NFL doesn’t want a Canadian team. And I don’t think they’re interested/able to drop a billion dollars on an NFL stadium, which is what they’re running these days.

Okay, thanks for giving your side of the story with a valid reason instead of not saying why. I happen to agree with you plus add on the discounted Canadian dollar & it'd be crazy expensive.

What a favour the Calgary Stampeders did by losing the GC to the Argos. New ownership. The Stampeders just spreading the love everywhere. LOL. #CHOKE

Just as an example the new stadiums being built in LA and Vegas are going to cost anywhere from 1.5 to 2 billion $ US and you know when the total cost is realized it will be much higher, even the tall foreheads in TO realize that kind of money is beyond them .

The NHL and NFL have no interest in Canada.   The NHL would rather take money out of China first.....Seattle, Houston......Quebec can forgot it unless in desperation someone is moving a team.

Anyone know how the economics work in M.L.S. to allow them to pay those kinds of salaries?

I have no clue on how they can do this.

Indeed.  Vasquez for only $700,000 a season is an insane bargain.

David Bechkam, Thierry Henry.  MLS has been playing with big-boy money for a long time.  Small scale big-boy money.  Messi makes 10x what Altidore makes.

Yet watch them turn it around in one season and win the 2018 Grey Cup, while we go on to rebuild year 29 and counting.

 

I just saw Kerwin Bell's name being tossed around on twitter as a candidate for HC in Montreal... he and Kavis Reed were teammates years ago.

He got into coaching after his playing career, didn't he?

The way some people tell it he got into coaching during his playing career. I believe the story goes that in 2000 he was basically the OC here.
