Starting to think that the possibility of a crossover is more likely than not. Today is a must-win for the TiCats... because their schedule for the rest of the season is basically Toronto and The West.

Next few times we send AJ out wide I guess we'll see.

I appreciated it. Not because it was a gadget play and cool to watch, but because it will make defences have to account for it in future games. DBs won't be able to leave their cover as quickly to come up to the line for Ouellette.

Our 4th string QB had a good day.

If only they'd tell us.

Quick question: how tall is Dolegala?

Idk. In a bizarre way, the Argonauts have been the beneficiaries of a campaign of utter indifference from MLSE. They've been able to keep the operations group together because the parent company can't be arsed to look into the day to day or strategic planning of the football team they own... And having been left to their devices, the Argos have basically gone ahead and filled the teams pipeline with elite talent and prospects. Under normal circumstances I'd question whether anyone at MLSE was even aware of the 1.8M commitment they've just made to a CFL player... But even they must've seen it on the news the last 24 hours. It has actually been the lead sports story for an entire news cycle here.

True. That's totally within the realm of possibility.

The 2024 bonus is an attempt at NFL-proofing the deal. ie: unless an NFL team offers guaranteed money, the $250k just for showing up at BMO next year is hard to beat.

I get that someone might want to wait and see before judging this contract. Still early days and all that. But underwhelmed by his play? I don't know what he'd have to do to make you whelmed.

Not for me. I remember too many dodgy calls in the Als favor against us. I agree. Not until he plays a whole year and proves it, he ain't. But... Over the life of the contract, you'd have to say that The Chad likely is going to be better than Zach in 2025 & 2026. Big money, but I get it.

Still a long way to go, but the Argos are up 19% year to date on attendance.

Behave. He has the highest quarterback rating in the league (118.7), best touchdown to interception ratio (2.29), most rushing touchdowns in the league (six), the highest percentage of drives that result in touchdowns (26.5), and percentage of completed passes over 20 yards (53.2).

Likely truth in that. He'd have wanted to have his friends and relations at least recognize the name of the place he was playing.

This still cracks me up. You'd have to think it's because he's from Buffalo... but: BMO Field to the Peace Bridge: 151km Tim Horton's Field to the Peace Bridge: 95km

Likewise, under the present circumstances I'm going into games expecting a win for the Double Blue. But really, this has veered wildly away from the question: So I'll leave it at that because, who am I to say that people shouldn't always expect a win? I'm sure that there were Elks fans at home games for a few years that showed up expecting to go home with a win. Sorry for the thread hijack. It really was an innocent question to try and understand another fan's perspective.

Excellent example. I did not go to the games expecting a win those years. More like I was going to see some hope, some prospect of a team that could pull itself together. If not that season, then next. Hell, some games I went expecting a blowout so bad that I hoped that it could force a change in coaching/QB/management/etc.

That is an impressive distortion of the original question, which was: whether or not a fan expects to win every game. But that didn't let your lack of reading comprehension miss a chance to throw a dart at someone from another tribe. Good for you!

2013 wasn't that long ago... Some people get spoiled easily.

You never expect a loss? Like, in years where your team was the basement dweller and it's a rebuild project?

You're likely right... but being a Toronto sports fan for this long has made me reflexively "glass-half-full". As for what constitutes a "problem" for us? We have a QB that frankly we can't do without. If The Chad is out, it will be as if the Boatmen have no oars.

Since 1873. Facts.
