Haha! I'm so great. Just ask me! Shomari Williams was kind of a bust. Is he suggesting that was his coaches fault?

Trust me I've been nodding along to everything you've been saying, so much that my neck is starting to hurt. I'm honestly a bit surprised by how much pushback a slight reduction to the ratio is receiving. The benefits are immediately obvious to anyone not currently playing backup Canadian benchwarmer.

The argument isn't that they will spend less money overall, rather they'll spend it on superior players. That's better bang for your buck

Muckelvene has some awesome video out there. Can't dig it up right now but he looked great on tape

You are right that he very likely won't be making the team now, and that's a waste no matter how you cut it

I believe Langley was on the suspended list and was having trouble getting into the country when this happened. Besides that, is this a rhetorical question? How would you have handled getting slapped in the face? Like a perfect gentleman I'm sure...

Suspended for travel issues, Stamps WR Brandon Langley knocking the sense out of a slap-happy United Airlines employee: The employee was fired but only Langley was arrested. Even in the extended video this looks a lot like Langley defending himself against someone who won't let up. Porkins kept on coming like a zombie even after getting toppled like a weeble wobble

Yikes. If you ever got 99% to vote yes for strike mandate you better stick to your guns and strike or next round of bargaining a 99% vote will not mean much.

Ring of Honour - who is next?
Nope, I'm the one misremembering. I'm just plain old wrong. He won his first of 3 Grey Cups with CGY, but all 3 MOOL followed signing with the Bombers.

Ring of Honour - who is next?
Stanley Bryant has won 3 MOOL (should have been 4), but his first came while playing for CGY. Still, he has won twice (and been robbed once) and is a 4-time All-Star as a Bomber. Going into his 8th season with us now and he isn't even done stacking up awards yet. Shoe-in first ballot candidate when it's his time. Wade Miller likely does deserve some form of recognition. On the field he defied expectations by setting (and holding for some time) records for STT. Off the field he lead the charge in restoring and rebuilding the culture around the team. But it should wait til he's no longer associated with team management or risk looking a little too self-congratulatory. O'sh get's a friggin statue or I'm rioting

If Grey made more than $115k in 2021 (I cant find his salary but he was off his entry contract as of 2021) then we had at least one backup making more than Bighill thanks to his passport. I don't mean to single any one player out, I'm not saying he doesn't deserve it, and Grey is theoretically 1 injury away from being our 7th Canadian so he may be a starter very soon. I just think Bighill (and others) might deserve more

I hear you guys. To be clear if nothing changed with the ratio I'd obviously be fine with that, too. I'm arguing for more money for imports, less for backup Canadian OL and LB just cuz they're Canadian. I trust everyone follows this logic by now, even if they don't agree with me. I'm glad Speed brought up Bighill, he is a fantastic example. Which backup Canadian deserves more than him... on merit alone, and not nationality. There is none.

Demski too. Who would have ever guessed home town heroes putting up numbers in starting roles would sell lots of jerseys. Whitehead is an exciting import talent that isn't even on our team anymore, I want more Whiteheads getting opportunities in our league is ultimately my point, more money to go around on imports could conceivably do that. You insist the money would only go to QBs, I disagree. Get over it.

Our rules are what make the Canadian game superior to 4 down football. Nobody is tuning in because they are pumped to see Jesse Briggs average a tackle a game. I bet there are still more Lucky Whitehead jerseys in the stands than there ever will be Geoff Grey jerseys. CanCon is important to the game but we are an exciting product because of our rules, not our passports.
