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.

Please dont muck up thread with NFL and politics.

we are trying not to.  He's on the Alouettes neg list so I thought it would be interesting to talk about his potentially coming up to Canada as he can't get a sniff from anyone in the NFL, and I am curious to know if it's because he sucks or what the crap is going on.  I did make the mistake of bringing up his kneeling which triggered a few people and I shouldn't have done that.  

Last year, TSN said that Kap had zero reason to be interested in the CFL.  He's earned a ton of money and has nothing to prove to the NFL.

The other 3 they re-signed were  OL Jarvis Harrison, OL Terran Vaughn and DB Melvin White. I didn't realize TJ Thorpe was on the Riders' PR at the end of last season.

yup, he signed a PR deal with them I think the same week he would have made his way into the Bombers line up (due to injury). He legit played himself out a few game checks. Riders can have him.

Riders are loaded at receiver.... doubt he sees the field 

wonder if he will pout and ask to be let off their practice roster too..

I don't know. I can see Grant sr and owens released before the season starts.

me too...and I would take Thorpe over Holley...

Hopefully he has grown up since then.  He is talented and could have a solid career in the CFL for years.

wow, that's interesting. Glad to have him back in the CFL.

Thorpe would definitely be a guy I’d be willing to give a second chance.  Only if his attitude has changed of course. I think it’s safe to say that everyone sees his potential to be a special type of receiver.

Glad he's back, but Hamilton will be good this season.

You mean the Bombers could have hired Steinauer?  Ouch.

Likely not.  Even if we were looking, which we aren't,  no one outside of a few people in the Ticats organization  even knew he was interested in coming back to the CFL.

Not now but earlier.  It just seems to me that is something O'Shea could have discovered if he would have inquired.

Steinauer or Richie Hall.  Better question is, "why not?"

You have to believe that Steinhauer is being groomed to be the next head coach. Probably some sort of promise was made.

Jennings will get one of them killed eventually.

Steinauer must be insanely compensated with lots of power to go with it to voluntarily leave a US gig. Will shoulder a lot work Grandpa June cant do.
