Waters wins easily either way.

I like Elimimian over Ray for POY, if only because Ray missed as many games as he did.

Ray was a default option because there was absolutely nobody in the East worthy of the nomination. Elimimian in a landslide.

What about the "Great Grigsby"!?! 

Elimimian in a landslide.

 

For both awards.

 

I wonder how many times a defensive player has won both.

Would be never since a defensive player has never won MOP

Actually, kind of surprised that Sol beat out Bowman for MOP.   He had a great year yardage wise AND reception wise. He showed some very good hands this season. 112 catches is not a small task.  I can't even remember the last time a receiver had that many catches.

Interesting.

I would've easily chosen Bowman over Elimimian for MOP.

 

Bowman's numbers aren't HUGE. Until you see the numbers of everybody else.

Could not go wrong with either Bowman or Eliminian

Blah to changing the thread title......*fart noise*......

Wiecek said today McCallum won b/c he had the better %. Apparently no weight was given to the difference in condiitions between their home stadiums.

Stopped there.

Felt like we need to show him a little respect for what he has done this year

I already asked this last year but forgot. What is the difference between and player of the year and an allstar

I don't care how good Bowman's stats are, he most definitely doesn't deserve to be MOP. He still leaves almost as many plays on the field as he makes.

A sad, sad year in the CFL.

Congrats, LH....not an All Star, but CFL West POY. F***ing reporters.....

 

Actual quality honest reporters never make it to the big time.  Companies don't want honesty, they want sensationalism.

That's why I don't miss broadcasting.

I've carved out a solid little 12 year career (...so far...) being BRUTALLY honest at all times. Sometimes, you just have to be good enough at your job...

Cornish had an all-time yards per game type season.  I can understand the argument of not playing enough games, but if he played enough games to be Most Outstanding Canadian, he should be MOP too.

Semantics.

Who votes on it, apparently.  This article helped me when I asked the same question...

So he left like 100 plays on the field this year?

Would be never since a defensive player has never won MOP

 

I think it's time to change a silly trend.
