Winnipeg, Urban Decay, and Other Cities
It isn’t. Downtown Winnipeg has major problems that need to be fixed. It has gotten worse since the pandemic started. Asking a bunch of millionaires who spend a lot of time in the biggest cities in North America which downtown they like least is a stupid bench mark though. It is cold, dark, and empty basically any time they’re here.

This is fairly accurate but there are still pockets at night that are good. I have never felt more uncomfortable than being in downtown Hamilton and it is run down literally everywhere. Regina is terrible but too small to even register. Toronto’s downtown definitely has some absolutely awful spots but it is also gigantic. Moss Park is scarier during the day than during the night somehow.

Not really. Lawler will be 30 in June and is making $285k this year. I doubt he is going to make $285k at 31 outside of truly insane numbers. I think the more realistic number is closer to what Schoen makes now., something like $220k. Schoen will be 28 in October and is making $230k this year. It is looking more around $250k is what teams are looking to pay the best WRs. So let’s say Schoen gets $260k. 2024: $515k 2025: $ 480k It isn’t like $100k less but I could see it being closer to $50k pretty realistically.

I think Schoen said they started talking about a 2 year deal but didn’t want to derail the progress on getting the one year deal done so the two sides put it on the back burner.

I mean going out and getting **** faced the night before a Grey Cup game where we had a guy making his first start ever at QB was frustrating.

I’m not back pedalling Al. I am leaving a subjective opinion open to debate. I meant I think he would have been in the conversation had he stayed. Yes, it is speculation based on one season.

Milt Stegall was pretty good. Both came in 1995.

I said “maybe the best”. Rod Hill was a first round pick in the NFL and played down there for years before coming up here. Alford came in as a pure rookie and was the best DB in the league playing the toughest spot in the secondary. Rod Hill was never as physical as Alford from what I remember, and I don’t really care about fumble recoveries TBH. Alford was a great cover guy just like Rod Hill. Juran Bolden would be in my conversation as well.

I know who Rod Hill is.

If Dee Alford stayed up here he would be in the prime of maybe the best DB career in league history.

There are an endless amount of guys who can do what he does. He doesn’t bring anything special.

He has got a lot of run out of one good year.

Thats fair I guess if that’s your grouping. I think Lawler, Scheon and Lewis are significantly better than the rest of those guys. So my personal tier would end there. edit: I’m really on the fence as to whether I think White belongs with the other guys. I’d side with “no” because I’m on the fence.

Great? Like upper tier? I wouldn’t put him there.

1/4 of those guys can actually stay healthy They had all these guys last year. They still sucked.

Their best off season move was getting rid of Michael Ball.

2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News
Again , people seem to forget that would have tied the game. That and I still think the pass would have been broken up. Plus, had Sayles just knocked the ball down like he should have it was drive over a few plays earlier. .

I’m not talking about Michael Bishop. Im talking about Dolegala. I’m not mistaking anything. His arm strength is not exceptional. There have been plenty of guys who are said to have strong arms, they get up here and they don’t. IDGAF what some random scouting report online said. Most of them have stuff that contradicts itself within the same report.

It is funny how MTL’s OL was getting destroyed the first half of the season. Then they basically stopped throwing the ball and things got better.

Maybe they’re hoping that spending some time in the minors and familiarity with the other guys can help. I don’t think he is a good Tackle. Hope he proves otherwise.

Well quite honestly IDGAF about those — I’ve seen it live and on TV enough to not have my hair blown back by it.

He doesn’t have Dunigan’s arm, McManus’ arm. Those are exceptional arm strengths. We weren’t talking accuracy. Quite frankly he has a long wind up as well. Heavy balls Cornelius probably had better arm strength.
-

He did , but the point was to expand the criteria of exceptional outside of a “11/10” and he isn’t in their group either. I am the one who brought up Bishop as having an exceptional arm.
-
Free Agency Day - Non-Bombers CFL News
He doesn’t have Mike Reilly arm strength or Henry Burris arm strength or maybe even Jason Maas arm strength from anything I saw. Exceptional means a lot better not a little over average to me.
