Around the League - Regular Season Discussion (Redux)
If anyone deserves it, it's him. He's been one of the best DE's in the league for almost a decade.

Matt Nichols, Elite quarterback?
He is 14-5 since taking over from Drew Willy but he was 2-5 for Winnipeg in 2015 (5-2 with Edmonton). His career record is 21-12.

Lol well yes I hope that decision never happens but it doesn't matter if it's Trump, Obama, or Abe Lincoln, if the decision for a US prez is Winnipeg vs Chicago, they're taking Chicago. We can be our own country but military might is not cheap. If we have a big brother who wants to protect us from the rest of the world, I think we're right to rely on them. With only ~35 million people, we're never going to be able to defend the second largest country in the world. We need the US and they need us.

I believe his record is 21-12 with a 59:38 TD:INT ratio.

Holy **** BB take it easy man

Matt Nichols, Elite quarterback?
Two very different scenarios and very different QBs. Glenn's yardage totals come from his longevity. He is a career .500 QB. Jennings went over 5000 in his third season, won 12 games, put the team on his back and willed them to a playoff win. I know it sucks to see Wally unearth another star QB but it is what it is. He is a top talent, miles above Kevin Glenn.

Quite sure that if we are attacked in any way, the nutbar president to the south will have our back. I'm more worried about the guy running our country. If NK attacks us, his first response will be to ask them what we did to make them attack us like that, and how can we make it up to them?

Is Now The Time???
With teams gravitating more and more towards stadiums of 25K or fewer seats, could we possibly target smaller, less traditional cities? THF in Hamilton holds 24k and was built for roughly $145M. Could cities like Windsor, Kelowna, or Sherbrooke be interested? Could they drum up support for a CFL team?

I'd fiddle with it so there would be 10 games in division and 8 games out. More fun that way.

Yes it was me, I am very, very smart. He is committed elsewhere though. As Darian Durant's backup's backup.

Absolutely not. The divisions must always remain. The crossover takes care of any imbalance and makes it fair enough.

Rider depth gonna be tested
Apparently Van Gylswyk left with an injury and Crapigna is already hurt. I guess someone has to do it

Cutting Drew Willy certainly seemed short-sighted. I know he has his flaws but.... couldn't Trestman have helped him?

Bruce Johnson Released
I have never heard a coach say you don't lose your job to injury. Seems to be a media fabrication. They ask coaches all the time "But I thought players don't lose their jobs to injury?" and the coaches all say "I never said that."

Reilly ducking under that one tackler last night was about as slippery as it gets.

Yep all season.

Bombers @ Cats: Momentum Required
I think he's been practicing basically since the beginning of the season. He was never on the injured list but he was hobbled in training camp for awhile.

Wrestling
Judging by the state of NXT I would have to disagree. It's just wrestling, wrestling, and more wrestling. No such thing as an angle. Makes for boring TV.

Rogers Cup
Well none of the big analysts told me that

Rogers Cup
A lot of people were looking at Peter Polansky as the next up-and-coming Canadian tennis star. This Shapovalov kid came out of nowhere. Great to see so much Canadian talent coming up through the tennis ranks. I also don't think Raonic is anywhere near finished.
-
Bruce Johnson Released
Yeah I agree with this, and it wouldn't make sense to pay starter-money to Bruce Johnson to be the 6th or 7th DB. That spot is more suited to a rookie like Carmichael. Johnson is the better player but due to the salary cap sometimes cheaper wins over better.

EDMONTON over ottawa
How many two and outs did they have? The defence kept giving them the ball back and Harris either completed a 2 yard pass, got sacked, or threw it incomplete. He was not good. Maybe that's on the receivers... it's hard to tell on TV. But if they still had Burris they would not be 1-6-1 and they may have won last night. Harris just isn't there yet.
