...Lawless says Riders looking at Ottawa Asst GM and John Murphy as potential new GM. Have asked for permission to speak to both. Fwiw.

Glenn. Cato. Bridge. Crompton. Adams. 

What is Poop thinking. Makes no sense. Imagine the bombers did this, people would be ripping Walters apart 

He's shooting for a team made up entirely of quarterbacks

This kind of implosion by Montreal makes me kind of sad that we are in the West now....sigh...

As an Oregon fan, I'm not really sold on Adams as a pro QB. He's got some serious flaws in his game that will make his transition into the pros a rocky one, if you ask me. 

That being said, he is very well suited for the CFL IF he can work past those technical issues and a few personal question marks.

First rounder though ... jeez what a joke 

 

Trolling Rider fans is so easy - but Pete Dyakowski sure makes it funny.

Happy Saturday, folks.

I've never been a Dyakowski fan.............until today. #Brilliams

Winnipeg is #2!!!

I don't see Adams being much of a pro QB anywhere.  He doesn't have a very good arm.  He struggled with basic drills in a QB camp hype piece I watched that he was a part of on NFL Network.  They couldn't even make him look good.  Accuracy is a concern.

I also think he's one of those guys who thinks he'll come up to the CFL and get to play right away (likely part of the reason behind this trade).  If he doesn't check that attitude he won't make it through the season.

Two stunning stories, one fun, one laughable, the week before training camp opens across the league. Both stories involve somebody being duped.

1st of all, and maybe the better of the two stories is, Peter Dyakowski's totally made up 'best fans study' which stated Hamilton had the league's best fans, then Winnipeg, followed by Saskatchewan. If you can imagine the explosion of surprise and outrage, then you nailed it. Sask fans on Twitter, and on their one radio station, coming on in vehement disagreement with this notion. And totally falling for it. Good job Peter.

Then, in another hook, line and sinker story, Wally Buono, somehow got Jim Popp to trade his 1st round draft choice next year? For an unproven QB with a questionable résumé. Not the most remarkable trade news ever, but entertaining nonetheless. I guess Wally hasn't lost it after all.

Correction...

Glenn, Cato, Crompton, Bridge*, Boyd, Burko* and Underdal*.. and Adams if he signs.

* Canadian QBs

Dyakowski  sure pulled a good one on those rider frumps....LOL...Bit right into their ego's and they bit the big one...I laughed so hard I thought my pants would never dry...Embarrassed the heck out of them and I bet they won't forget that hosing for awhile...It's funny they didn't try to run a poll right after that phony interview to see if they were still legends in their own minds...Gotta luv it...This would have been a winner as the best fooler on April one...Winnipeg rated as no 2 should have sent the green guys over the edge and their fan base had to have gone ballistic ...Hey hey...good one Peter, I'm now a fan...at least till we play ya... 

Zach Anderson inks a deal with HAM

Rumours out of Pile O' Bones that they have come to terms with Henoc Muamba.

Good for them. Muamba wants a 1 year deal to still chase The Dream. No tour?

LOL ...

I really liked Vernon Adams in Oregon last year... the offense suffered horribly in the bowl game when he got hurt before half... that being said, he has never taken a pro snap and has no guarantee of being a productive pro... he went undrafted and had 2 unsuccessful NFL workouts (I believe Seattle and NE??)... right now it looks like Buono completely raped Popp in this trade....

A troll job for the ages. Holy crap.

It looks like TSN will be broadcasting all pre-season games this year.  Kudos!

Just thinking... it's not inconceivable that BC could have the first and second overall pick next year...

Conceivable but pretty hard to predict as parity is being established throughout the league and every team has "potential".  No team wants to claim the number one draft pick for next year but hard-luck and disaster will prevail for a few of them so I concede it fall upon the Riders and the Als as deserving candidates.

On the bottom of the page with the TSN TV sked they have season previews -- apparently BC has re-hired Jeff Tedford as HC LOL

Cato might be released this week according to twitter. It doesnt hurt to see him here.

I honestly can't even remember who our third stringer is at the moment. Willy-Nichols and Cato would be a great trio of Quarterbacks.
