Not a GIF....but still amazing!

LET'S ******* GOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LETS ******* GOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree. I'm actually not worried about Buck, he was behind Lapo for a long time. There was obviously a plan for Buck to take this role on so I'm sure Lapo and the organization coached him up. I suppose the only worry for me would be when the pressure is really on him, like in a close game near the end of half or the 4th Q....but again, I'm not worried. Not having Harris/Adams this week isn't ideal. I'm hopeful the replacements can get the job done, but realistically there will be a drop off there. As long as those drop offs don't include mistakes like penalties/turnovers they should be ok.

Oliveira

That's the case with Hammy, Riders and CGY

Plus they are without 3 starting CNDs 2 of those are on Defense and one is their LT.

Yup, which is another reason why I don't get the love the Stamps are getting. An injured Bo is not a good Bo. Especially when you look at his supporting cast.

I think you're under rating Nelson. He's produced every time he's been given the chance. Which admittedly hasn't been a lot. But sure is more than any rookie we currently have. By all reports Nelson also had a great training camp and looks explosive.

Anyone who has been with us for 3 or more years, or has been in the league for 5 years...so no one who isn't already starting basically.

Only team with 3 players in the Top 10

There seems to be a lot of people very high on Calgary too. Not sure I understand why, except for them having Bo....who hasn't looked great the last year and a bit. Likewise there seems to be a lot of people sleeping on the Lions who I think will push for 1st place this year. Upgrades everywhere except Dline and RB.

It's really not that odd for Tburg

The CFL power rankings (which obviously mean Jack **** right now) have the riders in 2nd place and Bombers in 3rd....I get that Hamilton is number 1, but how are the riders #2? Has the CFL not been paying attention lol?

You beat me to it. Not a single big name vet released......something fishy in TO https://www.bluebombers.com/2021/07/30/blue-bombers-transactions-9/ and here are the bombers.

I'm eagerly waiting to see how the Bombers roster shakes out. But honestly, I can not wait to see what the argos do. They've brought in MORE players today....

Many times I would be cry laughing listening to those two in the morning. So funny!

I'm not sure, but I think the quote was from one of the players cut and not the coach himself. So he could have just said it behind doors and then the player mentioned it to the media.

I could see all 3 of those guys in SSK before the season starts.

Yeah I'll have a mask on for the majority of my time there.

Not according to Arbuckle. He was already involved in the community and said the redblacks didn't even try to resign him. Apparently there was no communication. I'll try and find the article where he said that. So I was a bit off on the lack of communication, but not on Arbuckle wanting to resign... https://3downnation.com/2021/02/05/sucks-for-nick-arbuckle-to-think-redblacks-were-stalling-for-matt-nichols/

It really makes you wonder what Ott was thinking when they straight up ditched Arbuckle for Nichols. Had to have known Nichols wasn't 100%...or they made a huge mistake in assuming he was 100%. Very odd situation there either way.

I have a feeling this first game is going to be a complete gong show for everyone! Not looking forward to the journey there and to the seats...mostly because my old man has zero ability to be even moderately inconvenienced lol.
