Grigsby Released!
He could still get a full cheque on the PR. There's no maximum PR salary and the Bombers have paid more in the past in some situations.Although I'm wondering if the 6 game IR was offered so his salary wouldn't count for the rest of the season. PR salary is $700 per week.That's the minimum. Teams can pay more if they want. Burke said one of the RBs was going to be put on the PR at full salary at the the start of last season.

Riders @ Als
Nice grab by Tisdale on the interception.

Riders @ Als
Just stopped by, it is full force anger at everything. Just took a look now as well. Couldn't believe their game day thread is up to page 52. LOL

Riders @ Als
Got our answer - Doege is in.

Riders @ Als
Can't see Joseph going in other than doing short yardage again. He didn't get many reps since he signed.
-
Riders @ Als
So Crompton has 127 yards passing and 100 yards came on 2 receptions to Carter. And Milo hits the goal post on his FG attempt.

Riders @ Als
I missed most of halftime. Did they go back to the panel at all or did they show the whole, long ceremony that is still going on.

Riders @ Als
Problem is cheering for the Riders makes me want to barf.

Riders @ Als
It's AC day in Montreal. Hopefully the Als will win this one for him. I like the 13 yard line tribute on the field. Go Als!

Realistic Changes for Next Year
Khari isn't a rookie OC (he was OC in Hamilton) and the Lions defense is usually one of the top defenses in the League.

Jets Acquire Peter Budaj & Patrick Holland

Kerry Joseph Joins Riders
Not until tomorrow. Earlier in the week the Leader-Post said Joseph was expected to dress for the game but he's unlikely to get into the game.

Jets Acquire Peter Budaj & Patrick Holland
And to top it off Budaj was injured in the first period of the IceCaps first game.

Hamilton @ Toronto Oct. 10
Got kinda excited after reading the naked men comment but I think they were o-linemen. A bit of a let-down.

Kelly benched instead of Romby
Romby Bryant has taken 3 penalties for 30 yards this season.

Hamilton @ Toronto Oct. 10
So now Black is stealing Jim Hughson's lines. Can he get any worse.

Hamilton @ Toronto Oct. 10
LooIs like the officials were told to crackdown on contacting the kicker penalties after that Riders game. That call on the convert and the one we took seems to indicate that the kicker/punter can hope around on one foot and when nudged by an opposition it's a penalty.

Season starts tonight!
What? The Coyotes lost $25 million last season and sold 51% of the team. This was the ice Edge idiots that promised to usher in a new era of prosperity. Couldnt even make a year. I thought RSE and Ice Arizona bought the team together in August, 2013. I don't see anything about further changes in ownership since then.

Season starts tonight!
The only slight disappoint from the game is neither Little nor Wheeler could get that elusive first Jets hat trick. What?

Kerry Joseph Joins Riders
Taman is a major media darling and, like Lawless, Penton has a big man-crush on him. Why do you think the Winnipeg media was campaigning so hard for Taman to be hired after Bauer and Kelly left or why so many details came out about the BoD's interest in Taman. Why do you think the Winnipeg media was scooping the Regina media on things about the Riders when Taman first went there.

Grigsby not getting first team practice reps - Cotton to start VS Edmonton
Willard Reaves is my all time favourite Bomber but do you really believe he would have turned down a shot at the NFL if Murphy had been nicer.

EJ Kuale tweet
Actually that video captures what happened on that play pretty well. It certainly wasn't a blindside hit, a bit late, but since both players were engaged, I wouldn't have called it. Exactly. Call them both or call nothing.

EJ Kuale tweet
Blindsiding a guy when the play is over is the definition of stupidity, especially since it was made a point of emphasis for officials, which players are well aware of. It's a pointless, selfish act, and that kind of crap is continually costing our team field position and points. Maybe Kuale should take up MMA, cause team sports sure aren't his thing. At least there his selfish stupidity will only hurt himself. He didn't blindside anyone on the play. They went face-to-face and neither player got the better of the other. Kuale has taken a number of stupid penalties but that penalty shouldn't have been called. The hit that was called was a late and unnecessary blindside, exactly what the officials are watching for. Kuale came across the field and blindsided Verdone on a punt return when our returner was already on the turf. Verdone popped up, they had words and Kuale tapped him on the head afterward. You must have missed the hit that drew the flag and only caught the aftermath. He didn't blindside anyone. The Ottawa player saw him coming, turned and ran towards Kuale. It's right there in the video: http://vid288.photobucket.com/albums/ll198/Takara_Soong/Kualepenalty.mp4
