What do you mean? The city doesn't provide any extra service for Jet or Goldeye games. I have a feeling that the announcement is going to involve some private shuttle buses from lots on Pembina, and some park and rides around the city. The Bombers might have to get the all clear to use the parking lots for the park and ride. It will be very hard to put anything substantial together without Winnipeg Transit buses. Winnipeg Jets get $6.9 million in tax breaks... soon to be $11 million per year. http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/millions-to-aid-true-north-141154603.html I know, we're talking about buses.

While i do agree to an extent, i dont see him as a moore or stegall (and thats fine) and he isnt expected to be at this point.. Im thinking hes supposed to be a 3rd 4th option and will be very good in that role.. also, his knowledge of marcel's offense is huge when you factor in the inexperience of our QBs..Not every rec needs to be a simon, bruce or milt.. And he's a good fourth option to have. His size gives you matchup problems in the red zone and he's good to deliver a strike to running a slant or when you need a guy to break off his route at the first down marker. It's not like he has a massive case of the dropsies like many in this league have. Yes he's a slow runner but that's fine as long as you catch the ball which he does. I find most people who say they don't like him simply leave it at that and don't go into detail about what they don't like (perhaps mostly because there isn't a laundry list of things he does wrong). We could certainly do much, much worse. 3 TD's in 24 games. Take out his 3 biggest plays last year, and he's averaging 20 yards receiving a game. That's while playing a lot of boundary WR, one of the primary targets of a CFL offence. He's doing something wrong, because he was completely unproductive aside from 3 long balls down the sideline in half a season, like worse than Jade.

Personally, I could care less what RB's and receivers do when there is not full contact. All you can judge them on is their route running/cutting and hands, the other half of the game is doing it when you're about to get rocked by someone. The RB's might look great now, but if they can't break a tackle they aren't of much use to us. Kelly should do well in 1 on 1's or skelly, this is what, his 4th CFL training camp? With the same OC. Kelly is pretty much a one trick pony at WR, fly route jump ball, never productive coming into the field. If he's our best option, Danny Mac should go on another road trip.

The poor guy always has the look of someone who just wants to fall asleep but keeps getting startled awake by someone/something.

Who else would you consider? The only other guy I can think of who I could see on national TV is John Shorthouse. Beyak is brutal, Kevin Quinn too, Joe Bowen is probably a little too eccentric. TSN has Miller locked up. I don't think they are going to toss someone straight to national broadcasts who doesn't have experience doing regional work.

Orlesky and Scianetti are both awkward on live TV, Orlesky is fine on the sidelines for CFL, but really rough on the Jets broadcasts. Orlesky is actually really good on the radio too when she guest hosts, knowledgeable and clear. Can't see either of them getting the CFL hosting duties though.

I don't believe the league will move at all. It's take it or leave it now, and if the players cost the owners real money by walking out, the offers will get progressively lower, specifically when it comes to the ratification bonuses and immediate SMS limit increases.

The only runner. Might be starting if Watson can't stay healthy.

I don't understand the point of not letting the members vote, along with withholding information from members. It would be pretty ridiculous to take job action when the sides are speaking the same language with a gap in money, without taking the offer to the membership. Either they accept and it's over, or they vote it down and now you have a mandate for job action. In the end, the PA executive is representing the players. The fact that they are taking strike votes before taking any offer to membership just shows how they've lost sight of their purpose.

When I joined twitter a few years ago I started following him cuz I thought he'd have good CFL info.... this is the reason why it took about a week before I unfollowed For me it was the shot by shot live tweeting of tennis matches....not what Twitter is for. I bet he got his account locked a few times for the volume of tweets.

Could he pass a basic test about journalism? Transparent attempt to create controversy, and really no need for it. O'Shea is a pretty laid back guy in temperment, and Friesen is really going to try to publicly antagonize the guy on his second day of training camp? Can't the guy complain behind the scenes if he really disagrees with the media policy? If you want to start a controversy, talk about the number of hamstring pulls in 2 days. Too much, too soon?

I'm willing to part with our 1st rounder next year to get him. I'm not. He's a role player at best in the CFL, he brings little to a pass rush which is about 70% of the game, at least until he loses a whole lot of bulk. He's also 28.

Another feature from the stadium design that was chopped/delayed for when they have a few nickels to rub together. They had most of the posts set up outside the stadium to honour the Grey Cup teams, but didn't finish it, that's on the southeast corner of the site where the patch of field turf is outside the stadium.

Has Hamilton violated the SMS once? Every team is spending within a $300,000 window on players. If you're appalled at what Bob Young spends, you should be appalled by every team.

You can have him. Total douchebag move he made on HAM. If they didn't know he was leaning heavily towards finishing up with the Bisons and trying the NFL, they were the only ones. So why did he "clarify" his position by saying the quad injury and NFL stuff wasnt true and expect me to be at camp and ready to play ? Then flip flopped again ? Here's a quote from Gill, "clarifying" It's been well known the last couple seasons that Gill was getting looked at by NFL teams and obviously as any football player would, he wants to pursue the NFL. Everyone says they'd be happy in the CFL, hell Duvernay-Tardif gave interviews saying he'd be fine playing in the CFL, but when the NFL calls they all head south.

That money is getting spent on players whether Laurent signs with the Ti-Cats or not. It's not like the Ticats are spending more than the other teams in the league on players.

What do you think of them using Tate at DE JBR? you hate it as much as I do? Don't really have an opinion on it. We'll have to see. Etcheverry isn't constructing a defense to play the run.

I feel like they are basically ready to cut Swiston, although he might stick around just because we have so few NI OL.

Bulcke would get Hamilton a pretty good haul in trade, but hard to say if Bulcke would accept a trade, he has a pretty lucrative education to fall back on. They also have Gascon-Nadon as depth at DE, and a few draft picks who aren't yet on the roster (Gaydosh, Gill).

Is it 2 UDFA's from this draft year, or 2 UDFA's regardless of draft year. That could be a loophole for Hajrullahu.

Why not just let teams dress 46 guys if they want and scrap the reserve list altogether? Only added cost would be travel for road games, but if that's an issue, a team can travel with less than 46.

Toronto cut Jerious Norwood too. Wonder if he's done in the CFL, he was pretty good last season.

I don't think they'd be working full-time for the teams. Probably pay them to be on-call during games, probably a few thousand per game, 81 games x $2500, $200,000 per season for the entire league, something in that range.
