You could throw in Pencer with your Swiston trade and get less than nothing for them.

Max's HOT TAKE of the Day: the meaninglessness of the running game in the CFL
Why can't teams run block? The Canadian talent base of o lineman has been so seriously diluted there aren't enough quality players to fill spots. The net result is poor run blocking, some suspect pass pro and QB s are going to get injured.

Riders unveil their "Signature Look" jersey
It's all about marketing and selling merch....like it or not there's a few more million in the Sask bank account.

Bomber property in the NFL
Matthews and Muamba would be free agents if released and not necessarily Bombers.

Football is a simple game
It is actually Lyle K. Bauer. If your going to continue to crap on someone get it right at least. Get over it.

Why is Washington still returning punts?
Best athlete doesn't make him best qualified to return.....don't blame the player if he gets sent back out there

GDT: Saskatchewan @ Winnipeg
Sorry about the typo....
-
GDT: Saskatchewan @ Winnipeg
The o line gives up 5 sacks and the RB gets stuffed at the LOS and people want to crap on the RB?

CFL investigating EJ Kuale - obscene gesture after Ticats game
That was why the word good was in quotes.....certainly not my opinion

CFL investigating EJ Kuale - obscene gesture after Ticats game
Sooner or later it becomes the law of diminishing returns, it happened with Ty Jones, Charles Roberts and a host of others. When the off field antics overtake the on field production it is time to say goodbye. That is exactly why"good players" get released or traded. Kuale has a limited shelf life here.

Is Kent Austin the most "hated" coach in the league?
People need to reflect back to when Austin was a player in a winnipeg. Constantly pointing his finger and blaming his teammates. The cat hasn't changed his stripes or his demeanour. Austin didn't lose his starting QB he was so smart he let Burris go. Buris' challenge in Ottawa isn't his O line, it is dropped balls by receivers. The toss up will be between Jines and Austin for biggest turd. The one with the poorer record will be the biggest deuce .

Telling Bryant Turner comment ...
Maybe Turner might like to reflect on his comment and think about picking up his game.....not really lighting it up.

Number Two QBs
Interesting Collaros goes to a team that has some significant O line issues and now he's a bum. Ditto with Glenn in BC. If they tracked drop passes and didn't count them as QB incompletions what might Burris' pass rating be? Interesting MLB tracks errors perhaps football might catch up on that stat. Snap judgements and can look at the big picture sometimes.

Ahem ... Kevin Glenn ...
Put any QB behind that crap OL in BC and see how they do.

Bombers release RB Will Ford
People still want to adhere to the theory that do be a good coach you needed to either have played the position or have been a good player. Why is that?

Lawless: Trade Glenn January for Canadians
Injury and depth issues are the mother of necessity. When need overcomes value things sometimes happen

CAL v EDM
It will be interesting to see if Jones' arrogance and ego continue to cost him games?

Lawless: Trade Glenn January for Canadians
Why do people continue to shoot the messenger? There is some accuracy to this article, like it or not. January is at best equal to an average non import tackle. Those that want to wave the all star flag need to review the fact that those awards came when other teams in the east struggled to keep OTs healthy for extended parts of the season. Granted there is something to be said for durability but for a team weak in non imports trading an import for non import ( a rarity granted) is worth consideration.

Injury updates - July 20
If T Renaud and B Carter end up as first team starters this week or next and you don't think that demonstrates a depth issue ...well

The critical lack of depth is becoming evident.

Rushing QB
If players can't tell feet first from head first give them an anatomy lesson. Worst case they just have to touch him to "down" him

Bonus Do or Die Detailed Half Time Report
Both QBs are lucky to be alive, unfortunately Reily is a bigger, stronger guy that can run. Why fault a QB for having little time and someone in his face all night. My concern is Etchevry has too many players on the LOS, great when it works but when an offensive player gets to the second level there is too much open field and the DBs are then left to come up. The end result is either no gain or too many large chunks of yardage gained. Let's be realistic no one is going 18-0.

Arland Bruce sues CFL over concussions
My point is that in any legal case anything that brings into question the character of a claimant is relevant. Like it or not agree or disagree it is a fact.
-
Riders Release RB Hugh Charles
Sask has the bye this week. Charles best days are behind him. Another running back that has past his best before date. Ford is a more versatile back that has demonstrated abilities as both a returner and a receiver out of the backfield.

Arland Bruce sues CFL over concussions
I hope this does go to court and Bruce is exposed for his questionable character leaving serious doubts as to the credibility of his claim. Someone made reference to the brick in the head.....fact....at least one paternity suit that originated in Winnipeg. He acquired an SUV while playing in Winnipeg bad failed to make any payment on it, the dealer was left to chase him. Hopefully he gets what he deserves.....nothing.
