These guys have either had a week when you include rookie camp or they were here last year. If other guys have already shown better than them, no point keeping them around. There's also the possibility that some of these are due to injury and they are told not to leave town. Jared Beeksma - been kicking around the league since 2022 and hasn't stuck yet. Was with Sask & Hamilton (twice) before we brought him in last July. Ravi Alston - on our PR last fall. Ronnie Brown - had rookie camp & first few days of main camp. John Waggoner - had rookie camp & first few days of main camp. Raleigh Texada - on our PR last fall. CJ Siegel - had rookie camp & first few days of main camp.

TBF, Edmonton had just given up a late goal themselves to let the Canucks back in the game.

Whoever tweeted that doesn't understand how the CFL works. They mentioned lying about speed but the article only talks about Chris-Ike's speed. He's a non-counter who would not have affected brown's status with the club.

Yeah I recently got forced into using my first iPhone at work and it has re-confirmed that I will never willingly chose to use one.

Had the Pixel 6 and was really disappointed with it. Was happy to trade it in for my Samsung S23. Don't know that I'll ever go back to a Google phone.

Didn't he announce his retirement prior to being suspended?

Yeah, opinions & views changing with discussion or more information is fine. Time will usually tell if those opinions are correct (like Brady proved to you). Only really an issue if people are wavering & flip flopping in their opinions from one comment to the next.

Barker was sued in the past by a female atheletic therapist so he might just be bitter about his experience in a similar situation. It's laughable that he trotted out the fact that the Argos apparently did their own investigation and found nothing wrong. The leaked report showed differently - Barker has zero credibility on this issue.

There was an article about him (and others) in the Free Press prior to the draft. I'm a bit surprised he dropped as far as he did given his size/stats. https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/featured/2024/05/06/head-of-the-class-8

I think (hope?) that's just Hamilton talking out of his ass (which is normally reserved for a couple other local reporters). Thomas showed last year that he has slowed down a lot and Schmekel showed absolutely nothing. I can't see anyway they are going to use those guys in rotation with Lawson for two spots when they are barely good enough to back him up for one spot.

Thanks. You are correct, it was Randolph out with injury, not Randall.

Tait mentioned that Randall hasn't practiced due to injury. Nothing about the others afaik.

I wonder if some people are still going to cling to the he said/she said bullshit...

Unless they completely ignore canon timelines, it has to be then since it's the events at the start of Fellowship (Bilbo's birthday party) that kick off Gandalf's suspicions about the ring - Gollum wasn't a concern prior to that. It's not clear in the movie, but there's a 17 year gap between that event (in year 3001 of the third age) and when Gandalf returns (in 3018) to have Frodo confirm it's the One Ring by throwing it into the fire. Frodo leaves the Shire in September of 3018.

I'm sure the lawyers weren't thrilled with Pinball's media scrum yesterday either. He was asked what he would do differently if he could and he said he would have asked a lot more questions earlier on when they were made aware. So, to me, that sounds like they knew but didn't take it seriously enough. They blew if off & now they have a lawsuit on their hands.

Definite fail. The Argo's also have a very loose definition of what participating means too. The video of him, running and throwing looks pretty participatory to me - allowing him to be at the facility is one thing but I don't think he should be on the field.

No it doesn't. While Kelly can currently attend practice, he can't participate due to the suspension.

I assume they still have a budget they want to work within so it's not just a matter of being able to take advantage of the promo money loophole. We have the highest paid QB & RB as well as the 2nd, 3rd & 4th highest paid receivers with multiple guys already getting promo money so they are using it, just not on a returner.

Nah, he's been trying to turn this on the woman from day one. Has nothing to with Kelly being suspended so I'm not inclined to cut him some slack. Had he taken more of a wait and see attitude, I might buy the "in shock" excuse but he's been this way since the allegations first came out.

I mean you're not wrong... their official name is le Club de hockey Canadien so in their case they would be CH due to the language. Yeah I can't imagine spending this much time on a sports forum and not having a clue about sports.

Both sides (at least according to her lawsuit and the Argos statement of defense), say at least some of the incidents happened in front of others. If the investigation got confirmation of what happened (one way or the other), it's no longer a he said/she said situation.

It was previously reported that Masoli won't be ready for the start of the season so I don't think he'd be an option.

Yeah Murphy & Pinball were mentioned by name (along with others). Not sure Murphy tried to bury it but when it was brought to his attention (allegedly) he kind of blamed her for opening a can of worms that didn't need to be opened.
