2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News
He hasn't played in 5 or 6 years AT LEAST...

I hope he doesn't do an Allen Pitts & absolutely refuse to be a Bomber alumni, to this day continually turn down local interview requests & when he was inducted into the Stamps Wall of Honour well over a decade ago never even stayed for the entire ceremony. As soon as he was inducted, he bolted out of the stadium into a waiting car & off to the airport he went. Sad that players feel so disrespected that they have reactions like that. Hopefully JJ comes to understand that we fans love him... Always will appreciate what he did as a player.

Injuries sure did Jeffcoat in. Imagine what he could have done had he stayed healthy. As is, we probably had him at 65% most times & he was still a force when he played. All the best in retirement, JJ.

Betts is so one dimensional. A strreaky pass rush end only. Lousy against containing the run inside. sask or BC can have him & overpay. With the money we have we should be able to bring in some DL help as well as linebacker. We need to shore up our defense.

Sorry, yes I meant Brady. Thanks for pointing that out.

According to CFL Nation, Argos management has a plan. What the plan is nobody knows... https://www.si.com/cfl/fannation/news/toronto-argonauts-offseason-strategy-anaylsis-prediction-free-agency-part-two

The 2024 Grim Reaper Thread
My wife is an Oncology Nurse. She told me when someone like John Wayne, Toby Keith & Jack Layton look like they did, it's a condition called Terminal Cachexia which is the final stage of cancer. It's characterized by severe weight loss including muscle mass, looking gaunt, anemia, loss of appetite, weakness & fatigue. When cancer patients reach that point their life expectancy is less than 3 months.

Will the Riders move Hardrick to LT??

He didn'tcare about the Stamps or a new stadium. He just cared about the photo opp.

I remember Banks pounding his fists on the ground after his TD was called back. That guy doesn't have a lot of great memories when it comes to the Grey Cup.

Yeah, I guess. I wasn't anyway. It's not easy being a PR player. Not getting the reps in practice yet has to be ready to go at anytime. And the money as a CFL player isn't that great. Some of these guys do it for the love of the game hoping for a chance.

I don;t think any of us were dissing Richmond. He was a PR player for a long time & an opening on the OL finally opened up. He wanted more money, didn't get & surprisingly retired. That's quite an either/or scenario. Most players would tell their agent to find another team to play for with the most money available. I do wish the guy the best with the rest of his life. No hard feelings from me.

Don't be surprised if he shows up coaching high school or the Rifles in the future. Most of these guys try to give back when their playing days are over.

It's well & good for Argo management to stand firm & not overpay any of your star players just on principle. However, like Nero watching Rome burn as he played his fiddle once too mzny players leave then it's impossible to repair unless they rebuild. I think we'll finally find out what kind of a head coach Ryan Dinwiddie is...

I think Bluto is having a bad day.

If Plan B is to retire if you don't get your Plan A then sayonanra. The guy had a chance to move up in the pecking order & chose not to. As a fan, I thank Drew for his efforts but I guess that it's time to move on.

Schoen & Bailey in one day!! Happy beyond Heaven they're both back. I can relax now as getting just one of those guys was Job #1. So, signing both is outstanding. Walters is a genius & to think we nearly lost him.

Bailey is a loyal "foot soldier" as a receiver. A complete player & does whatever he is asked to do. I hope we can keep him.

We start the season so early now that the GC is wrapped up mid November. There might be the odd year where it's minus 25 with a foot of snow on the ground but that'll be the exception & not the rule. So, teams can still load up on the passing game rather than buckle down for a frozen field & frigid temps. My point is the run game is important in the playoffs but it isn't as important as it used to be.

I think anyone who seriously thought that the Bombers would have moved on from Zach Collaros just to keep Brown were out of touch. That was never going to happen. Besides, Brown isn't here anymore.

Agree, I think people wanted us to move on from Thomas, Briggs, Schmekel & other players. Not players like Hardrick & other starters. More of a rearranging of the deck chairs & not a massive rebuild.

We have to sign Gray first. Though, Yoshi's signing in Regina may hasten that now. Good luck to him with the Riders. He's going to need it.
