@sportscage: Riders are negotiating with the agent for @paulwoldu about a return

@JDunk12: #Argos have signed Canadian P/K @RonniePfeffer, per sources.

Players keep getting bigger and faster and stronger is it any wonder players are getting hurt? in addition the extra DI on rosters is really allowing defences to rule and when defence is on top it means offensive players are getting hit. 

Bigger, stronger, faster & wearing less equipment than ever before.  And the equipment doesn't fit properly. Receivers especially wear undersized shoulder pads which sets them up for more shoulder & arm injuries. You see it on both offensive & defensive lines with players wearing less protective padding. Check out Alex Hall's shoulder pads next time the Riders play as he actually looks like he isn't wearing any.

Helmets are not properly inflated. Players take them on & off like baseball caps. They fly off when there is a hit because they aren't properly inflated. No way are they supposed to come off that easily if they're properly inflated. If they were, players would need  2 hands to put on their helmet. Not grabbing their helmets by the face mask & just popping them on.  

Helmets aren't properly inflated because they're uncomfortable to wear so players don't like them as they are very tight. If they aren't properly inflated then how can these new helmets protect from concussions? They can't & they don't. Next game, watch how easily the players take off their helmets on the sidelines. It's not supposed to be that way. In this day of concussion protocols & lawsuits it is mind boggling a league directive hasn't come down for every team's equipment staff to make sure all helmets are inflated properly & then to hide the pumps so the players can't let the air out when no one is around. 

I always wondered about that (removing helmets so easily) it was always a pain in the ass to take my helmet off.

I'm curious to know what it took to get Curran to come out of this "hold-out" type thing he was doing... money or finally accepting the NFL would not come calling...

without question B. The NFL is already going and no one is calling they're not likely to sign you now after deciding they didn't want you all offseason. 

He's an impact player & I really wanted to see Curran here.

@CurtisGRush: CFL stats guy Steve Daniel says due to injuries the #CFL will soon total 21 different starting QBs this season. For 9 teams. #QBgraveyard

If the Lions weren't in trouble before they sure are now. Reports are that Beck will out for a lengthy amount of time. Looks like Jonathan Jennings will be starting for them and they have Greg McGhee on their active roster and RJ Archer on the PR. Between the 3 of them they have a total of 29 pass attempts in the CFL.

Wow! That's brutal. Not good for the league. Jennings didn't look too bad though last game. Might be some decent potential there.

Agreed, Jennings looked not bad last week.

Yeah, but no one had game film on Jennings last week. 

BC might be in bigger trouble than Sask, and that's saying something. Likely all for naught, tho, if we can't string wins together then it's Montreal's spot to cross over in the West.

As per Twitter, Argos sign Justin Palardy......#WhereAreTheyNowFile

They have two kickers named Palardy now... the other being an American named Michael.  Get ready to hear that fact about 300 times during the next Argo game.

The way things are going for the Lions they'll be playing in front of friends & family only. Draping off the upper deck just makes it look like the Lions are playing their games in a closet at BC Place. The atmosphere looks terrible on television.I wonder what it's actually like in person?

Justin Palardy is made for the new convert.  Deadly in close.  At distance, not so much.

Can you imagine if Rod Black is calling the game!

No. I refuse to. Its bad enough having to endure him let alone pre-traumatizing myself.

A rumour reported by Lawless this morning has Popp negotiating for Kevin Glenn-probably for any Alouette QB currently on their roster plus a draft pick.

where did you read that.

Not sure that Sask like Winnipeg has given up on chasing the playoff dream. So that might kill that trade.

Heard it reported on TSN radio.

If I'm O'day I'll take the trade for Glenn. Get Cato and the highest pick they can get.
