I hope this doesn’t change anything for Bo on TSN. Looking forward to his coverage. To be fair, Hamilton’s situation isn’t much better. Unless they’re going all out for free agency. I believe it breaks down to the trade deadline lasts till the off season and for those teams the season is over. I want to say I recall the don getting hand slapped for doing some thing like this during gc week. Honestly the league should just extend the movement limitation till the week after the gc. No firing hiring extensions etc during gc week. I wonder what ham gave up. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile, O’Day stands slack jawed at Mosaic, while the painters apply our logo to their end zone. Farhan is saying that if Hammy didn't do it, the Riders would have. Which I would have loved to watch honestly. Riders trade for his rights, and Bo signs in Hammy anyway lol.

I think stuff still happens behind the scenes and such- it's just that there are no official announcements during GC week. This news is hearsay and leaked stuff... I haven;t seen any official announcement about it. Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenrider55 Posted November 14, 2022 Report Share Posted November 14, 2022 I can’t wait for JOD to do nothing this offseason, Dickenson to say “we like our team they’re good men” and the Riders to go 4-14. Gonna be such a long season. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An old article from 1980 about how the Grey Cup got it’s festive nature with the Winnipeg connection. So well written thought it might have some relevance. thanks a lot! From the days when sports writers could actually put together a well written, entertaining column. and those days are gone. our (fans) loss. "A lot of people have the notion the annual November insanity began in 1948 when the Calgary Stampeders skidded across the ice floes of windswept Varsity Stadium in Toronto and dashed the Ottawa Rough Riders by 12-7. What made that event significant was that the westerners were accompanied by a corralful of cowpokes of at least two genders who paraded on Bay Street, the country’s homburg and briefcase capital. They wore five-gallon hats and 10-gallon hangovers and they flipped flapjacks from covered wagons to the gaping throngs on the sidewalks in the financial canyons." forgot about this kind of writing. now.... we get barely literate recitations of stats. edit... . we have exceptional Ed Tait. old school good.

Jesse Posted November 14, 2022 Report Share Posted November 14, 2022 Evans would not make their team better. No available guy would, really. They just really need to focus on building through the draft and recruitment and hope someone appears for them once the rest of their roster is built up. Just now, Noeller said: What's his contract status? Any interest may be a cow's opinion.... He's been with us for two years. I would assume he's going to be a FA, but no idea.

Just lock this plan in... it's so easy to turn a team around in the CFL... especially the O-line.... I imagine there's teams lining up to sign him as their GM as we speak!
