2020-21 NFL Discussion Thread
16 Titan players now testing positive.....Patriots and Chiefs reporting infections and cancellation.....Americans have not got a hold of this thing and if covid keeps rearing it's ugly head the NFL are going to have to do a re-think about this season

Dustin has been sorely missed on the club....Went out a winner as far as I'm concerned....Wish him well in his retirement

Around The NHL 2019/2020
IF a very BIG IF...we move Laine there better be a truck load coming back for him or this fan base will go nutz....Patrik is number five on the trader list....Is he available ..really??...Some teams apparently have been kicking tires BUT walk away when they hear the ask....I think that's the way it will end....some teams will want to give us 'run of the mill' talent and we won't go down that road...We can't afford to after losing a few valuable assets in the recent past...Chevy has to make that clear....So is it 'deal'...or 'no deal'....Guess we'll find out shortly....

Around The NHL 2019/2020
I would be shocked if we moved Patrik...His class of player doesn't come around too often.....We have to have cash in the kitty to make a decent offer to top flite defensemen without parting ways with star players...TSN mouth pieces are trying to jack up interest by creating a scenario that most likely doesn't exist regarding Laine ...Can't blame them though as the NHL is in 'deadsville' this year along with a few other professional leagues...Hopefully Chevy is on top of his game and we can make a decent deal to improve.........hopefully

Streveler’s vs 49’ers
Streveler doing what he did here....ripping into the line with a vengeance ...He'll be a success down there ....our loss their gain... Chris deserves everything he worked so hard for...I might even tune in a Cardinal game to see the big guy doing his thing...winning

2020 Thread
Watching and hearing about all of these 'opt outs' is so bloody disheartening...It's like the league is going through a 'death by a thousand cuts' every time you hear about one of our guys going south...Can't blame them for trying ...but crappy to follow at the same time ....I hope and believe also most of these players will return next year ...........................hopefully

2020 Thread
The final decision was most likely made by a finance minister ...who has one foot out the door of this present govt. and the other on a banana peel...Doesn't bode well for a positive decision for the CFL....But like another poster said maybe in the final analysis this season was a shot in the dark in any event...Still hurts that we don't have backing from our fed. govt.....Other institutions seem to have an inside track as far as support......us...not so much

47 Million for a middle eastern country Yemen, recently and nada for a football institution in this country....Guess it doesn't take much to figure out the priorities of this federal govt. and I know where my priorities will be, come election time

The Lafreniere Draft Lottery
Why can't a simple draw take place without a hitch...This guy with the balls drops the Rangers ball before he was supposed to....bringing it back up to do it properly with his finger and magically the Rangers ball comes up as the winner.... Rangers ball the only one that was mishandled...I want a redraw LOL ..(like that's gonna happen)...A lot of people are left wondering ...were there any shenanigans in the process????Call me a little skeptical but I didn't like the way that came off

Qualifier : Game 4
Looking at all of those injuries, we can see why we had problems BUT the lackadaisical play in that series was bull$hit...Helle was sharp in the initial game but you could see the play in front of him was way below par and he eventually regressed into the players he had in front of him....A series to forget for sure and I don't know how we replace the quality D we used to have in the near future...but Chevy is going to have to address that immediately Hopefully we get lucky in the draft...A top pick would go along way in securing what we desperately need on D in a trade...Here's hopin'

Qualifier : Game 4
So we're in the Lafreniere sweepstakes early.....the only thing is this club needs more than a top pic to right the ship....Total rebuild and a few years in the hinterland looks like this teams future....Sad..when you think it wasn't too long ago we were a top dog...Big changes on the way and maybe we start with Chevy
-
Qualifier : Game 3
12.5%.chance at the guy IF we're bounced.....hmmmmm but maybe the only way we would salvage something out of this lousy season....Maurice says today he wants the guys to play..'without fear' and not to 'overthink' the game tonight...I hope the hell we were doing just that from the start, and if we weren't maybe that's why...coupled with the bad spate of injuries, we're looking at the Lafreniere scenario as the only win out of all this.....

Qualifier : Game 3
After that crap that was pulled off with Schief....Byfuglien would have made Tkachuck part of the boards....Could've changed the whole complexion of this series but now it looks like we'll be packing up early and heading home...We certainly miss big Buff and this team hasn't been the same since he departed...Is there enough gumsion left in the team to pull this series out of jeopardy...We're about to find out what were made of when the chips are down

Better to get right to the facts and leave people with no illusions....I'd rather have it straight up (just like my Crown Royal) ....If it comes off as negative thems the breaks

Looks like the feds. have told the league today that we do not fund for profit sports....even though the CFL is a Canadian institution ..They have mega millions for foreign countries but nada for our football league...Trudeau and his gang might look at their WE programme ....might find some loot hiding in there

What's in a name??? So where does this all end...Do the Cleveland Indians still retain their name....Do all of those motorcycles with the manufacturer's name Indian on them have to be removed...??? This sure can get complicated and I doubt that's going to happen
