I don't wanna curb creative play, necessarily, but you absolutely have to make a guy think twice about embarrassing you like that. Someone to keep them honest. If you're gonna do something like that stupid lacrosse goal, you deserve to at least take a good hit.

For a brief period, he looked like Warren Moon 2.0....it was just very short lived.

I don't necessarily disagree with the colour guy saying that........

I have no problem with the Leafs per se.... It's the fans I have an issue with. Social media, especially, has ruined the Leafs organization for me, which is sad because my father is one of those old school Leafs fans from the 60s/70s and I grew up at least partly a Leafs fan. But Christ... You go on Twitter, FB or any message board and the Leafs fans just ruin it for everyone. The worst.

He had like half a season where he looked just ridiculous...can't even remember how long ago that was, but it was with Edmonton. Then he just fizzled and could never seem to replicate it. Shame...so much potential.

ehhhhhhhhh....how quickly we forget that there was a time when Franklin looked like Warren Moon 2.0....

waited till the worst of winter was over...ha ha. Hopefully next year they can prove their mettle and last through all of it. Glad to have them up north as "permanent" citizens!

There was a really good article earlier this week from the WHO about the 3 likeliest outcomes for the pandemic this year and the most likely, in fact probable, is that its going to continue petering out and, while it's going to be super transmissible, it won't be severe. Apparently.

I thought this tweet was appropriate for the "countdown to kickoff" thread...... the boys are getting ready!! #6WeeksOut

sincerely hope Brazen is paying a chunk for this......that's quite the advertorial!

also, "Hommie" = "Homie", I do believe (tho I'm not up to date on that lingo...)

in a reply to the above: Curious about "3 legged chair".....does he (and others?) believe that it was all a fluke?

spicy spicy..... now that's who I'd like as Collaros' back-up....

I still think there's merit to the idea that the CFL (and TSN) don't want to compete with NHL playoffs in the spring/early summer, so they don't want to bump it up too far....

*waves at knuckle dragging cousin f***ers to the west*

Svechnikov, as well......and remains the only one (knock on wood).....

regarding the schedule and bye weeks: I read a quote last week from Ambrosie saying that one of the reasons he wants to get the Schooners going ASAP is to make an even 10 teams, and that would eliminate the need for so many bye weeks. The schedule would be balanced and they could get rid of some byes and then tighten up the schedule, allowing them to finish earlier. Or that's what he SAID, anyhow.....

Funny (??) story: They (UCP) actually got rid of an NDP tax credit to entice tech companies to move there. I've read stories of at least 2 different companies that were going to set up shop in Calgary (and help a downtown that is a ghost town, thanks to O/G companies taking money and then moving their office to Houston) and decided not to, because they felt the government was against new tech. It's just wild....they really think oil is going to be around forever and there is zero back up plan for when it's not.

the current price of oil is buoying things, but the second it crashes again.....good night, sweet prince.....

I'm not AS averse to 100yd field as I am to reducing the number of Canadian players, but I'd still prefer 110. There's something special about the fact that our field is so much bigger (length and width) than the NFL field that makes it seem "tougher" to me.... like our game is tougher to play. I dig that and don't want to change it.

heh.... I tweeted almost the identical take. It was a trash comparison by Farhan, who clearly wants NFL-North. Changing # of downs and Canadians is akin to changing # balls and strikes in MLB. It's a fundamental change that would be wholly unwelcome. Absurd.

This looks incredible. I'll be there for the IMAX showing as soon as it's out...
