Oh I know player evaluation is the main reason we have preseason tilts ....and adding a down could/would affect play but I thought it would add a little more interest to the exhibition schedule....The teams probably woudn't go for it based on the loss of proper evaluation time......soooo you're right

One thing that has always perplexed me......oil rich province like Alta. can't or won't invest in a new stadium ....but the prairie guys step up with new facilities.....I don't know why the powers that be in Alta. can't up the royalties on their black gold and inject some interest in new digs there....I guess it's not politically expedient and the CFL and other sports entities aren't held in high regard there.....Says a lot about them

Why don't we test that out on a preseason game.....nothing to lose and could be enlightening....I am not a supporter of the league going down the 4 down road BUT a nothing game could be a little more entertaining....nothing ventured ...nothing gained

Horrible news for Richardson.....you got to feel for the guy....I still think of him as a Bomber even though he has moved on....I don't know what kind of injury he suffered..... I just wish him a speedy and complete recovery

Ernie Pitts....this guy is going back to the Grant Cup Years and was one helluva receiver .... played a little DB as well....In 59' he scored 16 td's including a 107 yd. pitch and catch from Ploen....Solid receiver and go to guy back in the day.....His life ended tragically when he attended a birthday party for his daughter and his estranged wife shot and killed him....This guy really lit up the old stadium...exciting to watch and always a fond memory and part of the golden Cup years of the late 50's early sixties

Regarding Saunders ...just read an article on him and his injury .....he was having a helluva season with the Cats up to that point.....He was also in a car accident....and the story had a big question mark beside the heading 'accident'....Don't know what that's supposed to mean....was it serious or a whatever??....In any case if he's totally recovered he would be a very nice addition after watching his hi-lites with the Cats....This could be a fantastic addition to a receiving corps that got hit with a few departures....

That's exactly what it was known by.....They called him 'Indian Jack Jacobs' in those days....Don't think he cared one bit about that handle and embraced it ...Was one of the best qb's along with Ploen to ever get behind centre for the Bombers

I'll disagree with you but you got to promise not to hit me with your purse

League minimum for sure.....Leggs has been improving and Ryan could lose out to him at any rate.....competition would be solid though

We have to be one of the teams on his list.....O'Shea just said recently the kicking game is wide open ..AND why would it be so strange for a 'rider' resident to finish his career here ...He was on our club once upon a time.....Sign him Walters......that's if he's over his nagging injury and is ready to go at tc

This kid looks like he could be a 'find' ....Watching his hi-lites on third down he looks impressive....but don't they all.....Looking forward to seeing what he can do at tc

Weak effort AND..............that's all she wrote for the Jets chances this season......There needs to be major changes but I don't trust the people we have in charge right now to make them....The team can start there

Luv'ed those to English blokes....especially the one where the 'wink wink' guy asks the other '''; do you have any naked pictures of your wife'.....the beer guy says ....'certainly NOT'.....then the wanker says....' do you want to buy some'...............love that type of humour but then I'm old school

Hogan....O'Shea.....I'm pretty sure they're both Irish....no blarney there and they should get along famously

Yeah ...quite a record....Anytime I hear Billy's name I think of another NHL star from the North End...Terry Sawchuck...Great goalie..........Mosienko used to own a bowling alley on North Main....Played a little 5 pin back in the day there

Dakota looks like his arm is up to snuff....pretty good actually....Working with Zack will certainly be a huge benefit ...and it's the stuff between the ears that's a real diference maker for a qb.....IF he attains that we could be in good shape at the back-up position....Don't remember his running ability ...so there's also that....Don't think he's another Streve but we do need a short yardage guy

I agree we are considered the 'place to be' in the CFL but it wasn't always that way....matter of fact we were once the last place CFL players wanted to go.....Great management has changed that and hopefully the Jets can also manage that feat....Just face it ...Wpg. isn't Van. with the views, or Mont./T.O. with all of their night life....we have a football team however with a lot of the talent in the league, built by our current management....Took a long time to get there and I think the Jets can accomplish the same thing....Question would be do the Jets have the right people in place to accomplish that now....I'd say no.....and that's where we need to start

Managing the cap in sports is key....The successful ones like Kyle Walters put together winners....I know football isn't hockey and vice versa BUT it starts with good people with vision.....Making hard choices like in the case of letting Andrew Harris walk is an example of foresight....The Jets don't seem to have that and it has eaten this team up....The Jets are looking at the bottom for a few years until we can rebuild the club to it's winnig ways.....Makes it harder when you're not on every players city of choice and 'go to' place and that's why having exemplary people in place at key positions in management is key...True North has some work to do

Ambrosie says '''and if they're quoting him correctly, that there's a real push on towards 4 down football'....Genius says it's not them....then where the hell does this 'so called' push come from....I don't think we're getting the whole picture here.....Talk about mixed messaging.....it makes us look so rinky dink, especially over what could be a game changing topic....Confusing the fans ain't a good road to go down

My cholesterol levels are going up just reading these burger takes ....Burger me up and take me to the game ....and I'm good for the day

Talking burgers....I used to think that the Salisbury House had a pretty good burger....and Kelekis in the north end ...but then I'm from the Doo-*** era ....Went to an AW on Van. Island when I first arrived, and thought it had a pretty good burg....and noticed they had an old time picture on their wall of the first AW in Wpg. that I can remember ...It was in the lot of the old stadium beside Polo Park .....Wow...that's going back some...Is the Millionaire Drive Inn still in operation or the Dog &Suds on McPhillips....they also had a good burger going on back in the day....Gotta stop now.....getting hungry

Guess he couldn't SEE a future there...........Kenny does though

Jim Van Pelt....the guy who took Ploen's job in tc ....This guy at it all ,until he suffered a shoulder separation against the Esks. (Rollie Miles) after he took a shot out of bounds....Walked away from the game and joined the Air Force....I was quite surprised when he made that call....guy had a great future in football

T.O. getting themselves into a mucky financial situation....Having said that and considering the loss of Desjarlis ....should we/could we have a look....Guy has age,experience and the right passport for sure

I hope Sergio has picked up some of the traits off of Mourtada......the unsuccessful ones.....Guess he doesn't believe in the 3 peat orrrrrrr the Elks gave him a big fat contract....along the lines of Kenny...Loser
