Ah Lapo

Lawler, if not landing in the NFL is a slam dunk to be back here...bank on it. Speller...an "undrafted" guy at that was not coming back, he knew he would be a back-up here..most likely 7th guy at best, and the team had sufficient depth at lower price tag to offset his loss, so getting what we did was just a bonus, seeing as this is what we landed in the last draft in later rounds...2 key contributors to a grey cup team, and we have seen that Walters and the staff has had a good track record of finding useful talent in later rounds 7th Round: DB Nick Hallett, Toronto (61st) 8th Round: DB Kerfalla-Emmanuel Exume, Montreal (70th)

So, did Scheifele get "demoted" or did Wheeler and Connor? Either way, here's hoping the shake-up leads to improved play at both ends of the ice.

I'm not surprised that Awe was released. He's the kind of guy you sign near the end of free agency when he didn't land a starting salary somewhere and can get him for cheap as a depth piece. Right now Winnipeg has a chance to upgrade some starting positions and that has to be the priority right now.

You expressed your opinion but be ready for rebuttal from some people who don't agree with it. That's why this is a forum. But I dont think any one here told you to f*ck off - well at least not me.

Could be, I have no freakin clue its hard to keep track of that stuff in this double off season. 😆 I feel like you can start a countdown to lapolice being back at tsn, or being an OC already. They dont have our Ol or a top tier one, nor do they have a top tier RB. Giving up on the young high upside qb for the old injured down side of his career guy is nuts. Maybe plop doesnt feel he will get enough leash to develop a young qb but dang it seems like the RBs are about to waste a season. Can any one expect nichols to drop back to pass 50 times a game at this point?

It's official: https://www.cfl.ca/2021/02/01/edmonton-names-jaime-elizondo-head-coach/

Big mistake by Ottawa... throwing away a QB with potential and who is healthy for a guy on a steep decline and has maybe top two seasons left in him. If we are to believe 17to85... did they really need to sign Nichols if the gameplan revolves around 5 yard passes? Couldn't they sign any immobile QB at a cheaper rate to dink and dunk passes? Big time upgrade for Toronto and if they get MBT back then they'll at least have some decent CFL experience QB's who can throw the ball.

Not surprised by this move, I think its good news for Nichols. Goes back to a system and coach hes very familiar with.

Hell let's bring Nichols back and hope collaros and Nichols aren't hurt at the same time.

Yeah old man Hughes with rider stink on him isn't needed here with Jeff squared on the roster.

I dont see any need or fit for him here.

desperate times calls for desperate measures 😂

Seems like American rules on what lawyers can do are much more relaxed than in....... most modern western countries. few years ago scalia was hanging out with D cheney, when a few weeks later he was hearing a case cheney was a party to. this would not happen here. period. wow..... cops handcuff and pepper spray a nine year old girl . buffalo n.y. americas wars coming home.

we also have 2 guys I really high on Mekale and Stewart, and Ross could be a dark horse Also if Whitehead isn't picked up by NFL...He will be back and if used right will be the break-out start this year, Mix in Adams, Woli, Bailey, Demski to whomever makes the squad we will be fine...all big name guys started out as "who dats"

I don't know where this Lawler to Ott comes from...Cause of lapo?...highly doubt that. Lawler wasn't used like he should have been in Lapo's "system" and being in it would be the difference from him being a 600-800 a year receiver, to a 1000+ guy in a different one...Playing in a Lapo system as a receiver is your ticket to average stats, and average earnings Peterman loss is a non issue..potential sure, but maybe not, and he wasn't key for us in any manner, he won't unseat Woli or Demski, and we have Oleary-Orange who is cheaper, and offers more upside if you ask me

Agreed, much nicer to be like this

Suddenly i don't feel so bad for giving up a first round pick for Zachary. Ottawa gave up a 1st overall pick and ended up with Nichols.

who

What they are not telling you is that the swab has to reach the back of your throat.

I'm guessing like me, you haven't been paying attention to their moves. They have the making of a solid oline...already have a decent rec group, that might now include rogers. They're not as unappealing as they were pre covid.

Hopefully we get one of Stove or Nevis back. If I am greedy, imagine one of Stove or Nevis+Sewell?

Hughes will never end up here...no need...especially at his age. Obviously wants out of that god forsaken place, has probably told his agent peddle my arse all over the league. If they lose him, Judge, Soli, and already released Evans..that defence will be putrid...the fact they have re-signed all their starting DB's who were highly overated as it was last year is scary enough for a Sask fan....They gonna have to hope for Fajita to put op 30+points a game just to have a chance, and that won't be happening...you will see limited succeeds by him this year

I'd take Stove or Nevis over him every day and twice on Game Day....

In fairness... how many times in the last 10 years have we seen some teams make big splashes in free agency with 2 - 3 big names only for them to still fizzle out come the regular season. I could see if a team was really good all around and then they add a QB to fill in the missing piece. Toronto and Ottawa were all sorts of bad all around and they'll need to to really fill out the team with solid depth players to make them contenders.

Did the other team forfeit?

actually they never reached out to him at all even before his cancer diagnosis three weeks ago (yes THREE weeks ago) man I wonder if they will address this when the show returns for season 2, I imagine there will still be an in memoriam graphic, but they said he was living on the international space station with his robot to explain his absence

Not to speak ill of the dead, but the guy post Saved by the Bell was a gong show and he completely shitted on everyone on the show afterwards. Even if he was healthy no way would they want him around after all the lies and crap he said about the producers and his cast mates. Not to mention the porn tape and the scam he and his wife pulled where they lied about being homeless and begged and pocketed the money. Bad dude all around.

Quite a few of the recent Interlake cases are from remote / northern areas of this region - but yes, still showing improvement.

weee under wow this is the lowest in a long time

So Trump has 2 new lawyers. One declined to charge Bill Cosby. The other says Jeffrey Epstein was murdered. Film at 11.

Hope you're right about Lawler.....cuz the options in fa are thinning down quickly

I'm afraid we will end up with 'No Names' 😁

How was he not on his 2nd shot already.

delete. i'm drunk

Probably didn't want to restructure. I would never consider our receiver stable crowded. We have a number of average pass catchers that easily could be pushed out the door with competition. No big names will come here until we show we are going to open up our passing game.

Why? We still have Bighill, Wilson and Antigua

Under 4 goals? That's a first I think.

You know... I was fully expecting the hypocrisy in full swing as soon as Biden became POTUS... but it still irks me when motherfuckers like this racist piece of **** start going on and on about suppressing freedom and discrimination- like these last 5 years of his policy suggestions and recommendations were not all about suppressing freedoms and using discrimination like policy cudgel.

Well it is their stockpile after all.

Arbuckle to Toronto as a FA, Nichols to Ottawa as a FA. I'm surprised Nichols wasn't willing to re-structure for some security.

I would like to see us go from a team that averages 200 -220 yards a game passing to 275 yards. I just hope Buck Pierce opens things up.

Well yeah, okay... In Cochrane, AB last week a Dairy Queen refused to sell a Birthday cake that said "Happy Birthday Lesbian" saying it was offensive & that kids would read it. It made the news headlines. Apparently after this store refused, the customer drove 20 minutes to Calgary where another DQ did it for her no questions asked. The owner of the Cochrane DQ fired the supervisor who made that decision & said that should never have happened. He also said he was very, very sorry. I take his apology as sincere. That was an employee making that decison. It wasn't a store policy. Another stupid religious alt right conservative trying to push his moral values onto others.

https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/the-epoch-times/ There's everything you really need to know on The Epoch Times, which is an absolute rag of a newspaper. Canada Post delivering this garbage is embarrassing and should not even be a thing. Good on those two carriers for refusing to be a part of the ongoing spread of mis-/disinformation.

Six is enough Super Bowls. I want to see Mahomes & Andy Reid win again.
