Zontar Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 Revealing interview. Not from Durant of course, Pederson didnt lay a glove on him, getting at the truth wasnt the purpose of the interview, but how Durant used a Rider PR and media tool to get his spin out. If you didnt know or realize what Pederson actually is and what he represents in relation to CFL "journalism" you do now. As for Durant... when reporters virtue signal with "heartless" managment decisions I want Durant cited as a counter balance. It'll never happen I know.

DanoT Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 What are all those Darian Durant Rider fans going to do who vilified Mo Price a couple of years ago when he took a large bonus from the Riders and then retired. Rider fans must be feeling awfully conflicted right now. Or they could just be hypocrites who feel like Durant that he deserved to be paid by Bombers but Price did not deserve to be paid by Riders. Yup that's it, live in Regina and be a hypocrite....that's easy.😏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually seems he had an agenda to harm the Winnipeg franchise as evidenced by that taunting tweet above, and if I were the Bombers, I'd make a case to that effect and go to the league and ask them to forgive that bonus money against the cap because the contract was not negotiated in good faith. Under contract law, they have a right to do so if there is evidence to that effect such as the tweet above and his comments to Peterson. I share the sentiment of many here and sympathize. Bombers do not deserve this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I see that now, you are right, but I'd still make a case to the league to be forgiven that 70K against the cap. Bombers will make a profit this year like last, so the amount of the loss is not the biggest issue, the fact that it counts against the cap is the issue. If they could get that forgiven, then they would be in better shape to use that money later in the year. Talking about offseason rule changes next year, they should write in a rule that signing bonus money does not count against the cap if the player retires before the regular season starts. Overall, I think that would only help all the teams in the league in situations such as this. Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Dee Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 Durant chose fatherhood over football. Fine. It was probably time. Then, where a scenario presented itself for a great teaching moment for the future, father Durant fumbles the ball. Big time. Is this how you teach morals to your first born? Doubles double reneged on a deal, a promise, and with that poor thought process, traded his honour in a cowardly, non-grown up way...he avoided the situation. It was easier that way. Respect and honour are not easily won, but they sure are quickly lost. And lost them he did. That, is what Durant ‘deserves’. blue_gold_84 and SPuDS 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might trade, but likely not to a western team and only to an eastern team who wants him dearly and is prepared to pay. I'm thinking that his antics have pretty much ensured that he's done.

Dr Zaius Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 It's actually pretty shameful what Durant did and I would say that about him no matter what team he did this to. To have such a great career end with such a smudge to his character isn't a good look on the CFL as a whole. If he wants to go out looking like a slime ball then that's his choice, but I legitimately thought he respected the CFL. It's clear he doesn't and to me that's quite sad. wpgallday1960 and Mr Dee 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
