This is a fair point... and I think most of us understood that's exactly what he meant... that's how I took it anyways... either way, the coach taking the blame, rather than throwing others under the bus, is good leadership

I just wanna see Eli at center ,see how that unfolds....

Before the vaccine issue Eli was ahead of gray on the depth chart... then upon return he can't get ahead of anyone? That doesn't make sense, especially knowing the limitations kolankowski has.

Manu has a football lifetime of NFL PR opportunities ahead of him if he doesn't crack the roster. Would be very surprising to see him in the CFL. Remember...there's about 600 PR spots in NFL. 1700 active spots plus injured lists. Lots of room. 3000 guys plus the next thousand waiting by the phone week by week. And Speller was his guy. Couture was his guy. Kendall Randolph is his guy. Liam Dobson is his guy. Geoff Gray is his guy. Eli gets in and isn't even a speed bump in pass pro, can't get his feet going.

I find Dancing Gabe amazing, so therefore anyone else named Gabe must be equally as good.

I’d be impressed if anyone on here legit watched a U of Buffalo game

First Olympic medal in women's pole vault for Canada. https://www.cbc.ca/sports/olympics/summer/athletics/womens-pole-vault-final-paris-2024-aug-7-1.7287439

The whole league had two years to sign the guy and he came back here on a 3 year deal. Even Jacob Ruby got signed immediately when he was eligible again. I don't see it as a talent evaluation problem in this case. The guy who is biased for Canadian players all of a sudden hates a Canadian player? Gotta get the narratives straight. I mean that's not true. I was just at Vikings camp and half the OL they have in there are in their 30s having bounced around PR's and barely played NFL games.

I hope you didn't mean that as harshly as it came across.

I watched him play as both a Bull and a Bomber. He's very underrated by Bombers fans. His nastiness is needed in the run game. I'm a real football fan, not an occasional one like some fans here.

Circus catches are great but I'll take a well placed ball with extra YAC everytime over a crumpled receiver landing on his head and being touched down.

Damn broccoli heads I had forgot bout that lol

Legit question - have you ever actually watched Gabe Wallace play a game of football or did you just see he’s Canadian and determine that he’s amazing?

The irony of a Riders fan coming on here and telling us about real fans vs bandwagoners.........

Mr Canuck AKA a “real fan” not one of those fake fans who don’t watch U of Buffalo games will educate us peasants on what it means to be a true fan; we simply aren’t worthy.

cfl.ca has all the games in the States if you don't have CBS SN. I just got back from the States. It's basically like how they broadcast the pre-season games that weren't on TSN. Not hard to connect to a smart TV.

Happens with young ol and ol changes. In theory we could get him this year, not real likely though. If he gets dinged up in camp down south though the chances of him being here in camp next year is extremely high. The nfl churns through ol prospects fast too. Guys don’t get a lot of repeated looks or time to develop if they don’t show out early.

Stop ranting garbage, your son could watch almost every CFL game in the US streaming CFL+, but Daddy wants to blame the bad scarf man instead! https://www.cfl.ca/plus/

Agreed. Can't say things are fine until he has more games under his belt.

I'd be more scared of Andrew Harris coming in to QB the Riders than Trevor Harris...

I am at a point where the injuries are becoming too major of a factor. Thurman now out this week along with everyone else already lost. Ottawa is sneaky good, especially defensively and will be a tough game.

You saw it work for ZC when he ran for the first time since COVID ended

could rekindle that Cauchy - Henoc magic...lol...

Yeah I've had a ton of time to watch these games and have watched quite a bit (definitely some sports I don't usually watch) and that was awesome today.

The drama in this today was fabulous. I have never in my life been so invested in pole vaulting...

I do because I’m a Bills fan and now I just pretend I know everything about Buffalo but I’m not going to pretend for a second I ever watched the OL.

Ugh, I do. My son will put on any football and the MAC usually has games Thursday night (and others). Can't say I remember anyone, though.

Canada is doing well these Olympics. A lot of 4th place finishes too... which could have improved our medal count. The US dominates the medal count as usual. I long for the day Canada become a powerhouse at the Olympics and we eclipse the 40 medal mark.

I would speculate that if NFL politics are against him and he gets no real shot he is still at least 2 NFL seasons on the PR.

I think it's unlikely he ever comes here... but if he does, it won't be for a few years...

AND give Lawler the ball in stride...or in space he is a yac machine and very hard to bring down

I think Lawler was basically just bad luck....and a few of his injuries were from insane catches....bailing out a qb on a less than perfect throw....I not too concerned it would be an every yr thing Schoen gets the stuffing beat out of him too from less than ideal QB ball placement...and also having balls forced to him sometimes when they shouldn't...Kudos to his ability to make the grabs....but needless abuse from it

That's politics with our Head Coach. Kola is "his guy". Eli is the guy on the outside looking in.

...and looked pretty damn nimble doing it too.

To be determined. The OL is improving but they certainly had some issues, and they still do to an extent.

Atleast we'll always have this:

As @Booch once called him and had me lol’ing… Jake Dole Banana will be starting for BC this week, VA is week to week.

welcome to our world....looks like we might be climbing out of injury hell a bit

And he is not getting double-teamed because he is the only real threat.

The Riders foresaw this possibility and drafted a traffic pylon.

And the rest of the Bombers will stand there stunned with their mouths open.

Demski will look a lot better when he's not the #1 option....

I'm not sure why resigning needs to be only way to take respondibility.

Yeah, the term "taking responsibility" has lost all meaning these days. In the old days, it meant that you tendered your resignation. Now...it's just a hollow phrase. "I take responsibility" - Nod, smile, carry on.

Oh, yes, Hill Street Blues was great. Also, it changed the landscape for cop dramas. You have to think about the context of what came before it. 40 years later it doesn't seem edgy or innovative but it was.

The only reason I can see Sheehan around is that he doubles as Castillo's holder, and they don't want to mess up that battery.

****** bombers and their inability to score majors...

Then why were so many of us pointing it out last season already? If you really get belligerent about this I will go dig up old threads to prove it...
