Well we are all talking like he actually wants to play again... he's probably worth 20-30 million without playing a down

I actually look at it more that Kaepernick is off the Roger Goodell 'blacklist' and teams are finally 'allowed' to look at him

Racism is absolutely an issue in Canada... and we need to do better... but for those people who say we are no better than the states... I mean modern day lynchings and KKK cops... cmon.

This reminds me of the lead up to last season where 'the league hadn't even talked to the players about a CBA' etc etc and then suddenly the deal was done The league doesn't run everything by the players because they know the players have no bargaining power - its just reality.

I doubt there's another league as reliant on gate revenues... They are probably waiting for some way to make Toronto work as a hub city... however Bombers did just call and say they are expecting a season starting in September

Cost-cutting is a terrible plan for a league where Riders, Bombers, Stamps, Esks and prob Hammie are all making money while 'profit sharing' leaves the league in trouble overall Running the league based on the Toronto and BC situations is a broken business model - CFL always gets trapped trying to compete outright in large urban centres rather than setting up community-based grassroots support... which in reality supports their only successful franchises

Amazing how a fake tweet about Antifa is doing more to 'out' fascists and show people what monsters they are than anything Antifa could do itself... Not that it will really sink in but whatevs

I'm fine with Mitchell and Miller tbh - they're pretty much a 'how to' guide on running franchises

We couldn't have asked for a better control group than the US... every state is taking a different totally random approach... to everything.

I'd be pretty choked to see this after CFL 2.0 just did the 'world tour' and now you need to scout in several countries... AND seeing more positions hired in the CFL execs for the globals... A 20% cut in staffing is not a viable growth move in any industry - especially one competing to even be noticed - I'm not against CFL 2.0 but expanding into a new market while you're bleeding in your current one is a terrible idea

Pro-rated pay? Its mid-June and CFL is still tossing around 'pie in the sky' ideas like that...? Yeesh.

207 of those are in East Arkansas Regional Prison... are you suggesting that prisoners may not be able to social distance - and that living 24 hours a day inside a contained environment with recirculated air promotes the spread of covid?

There's been a proxy war between Saudis and Iran for years now in various countries in the middle east... I think a 'conflict' with Russia is more easily controlled by both sides - Putin gets to shore up strategic locations and allies while Trump gets to delay or cancel the election - we'll find out soon enough
