Brian Tyms cut by Hamilton.  Pretty dominant at times late last season, bigger target.

Odd cut, didn't think he was out of place.   worth bringing in for a cup of coffee though, I'd think.

Meantime rumor also is Glenn hasn't reported to practice today.  Ridirts may be starting Bridge Friday in Hamilton.

I can't see him getting the start on Friday in Hamilton.

Crazy times. If anyone told me 5 years ago this organization would become such a mess, I'd have laughed.

Nah you could see that Montreal was going to become insane. They never had a plan in place for when Calvillo retired and it was always going to burst apart at the seems once than happened. Throw in the fact that they got so accustomed to running away with the crappy east you knew they'd start making bad choices the first hint of a losing season.

Obviously, there was going to be a decline but this is over-the-top embarrassment. Averaging a new HC basically once a season. How many QBs have come and gone since Calvillo retired?

This is legit gong show territory.

Not sure I like this. As long as it's an extra week at the start and not the end.

Maybe they'll compromise and put it in the middle...

According to the official league press release, it seems to focus on player safety: https://www.cfl.ca/2017/09/13/cfl-cflpa-work-together-deliver-significant-advances-player-safety/

I thought he was in over his head as an HC.. now as a GM, hes just throwing crap at the wall and hoping something will stick..

there's gonna be consequences...

With the moves Montreal is making, who are they going to hire as a head coach next, Bart Andrus?

They have also ended full contact practices effectively immediately.

bold move.   I don't forsee Ti-Cats signing him tho so is this their attempt to let another CFL team (hello riders lol) try and get him on the dotted line?

This tells me two things:

1) He wants to play in the CFL.

2) He has interest from another team. Tampering? Smells like the Riders.

I was thinking Mike Kelly.  He'd fit right into all this.

 

My money is on Montreal being the other team interested in Johnny Football.  The Als love those questionable big-splash moves and appear to have no plan at QB.

(Here, I'll save someone the trouble of making a FTFY post:  "The Als love those questionable big-splash moves and appear to have no plan at QB.")

The only surefire starting QB's for 2018 I see right now are BLM, Reilly, Nichols, Harris and Franklin. It'll be interesting to see what happens with the Quarterback musical chairs throughout the rest of this year and next off season.

I'm most interested to see what Lulay decides to do this offseason, whether he feels it's time to retire or wants to give it one more shot.

Does anyone on the Ticat roster look really good this year?  Maybe Tyms' bullpoop quota for the year was exceeded.

So......what you're saying is.......wait for it.......maybe we should bring him in for a cup of Tyms?

Isn't it nice that we're finally on the list of teams that doesn't have QB questions going into the off-season!

Top notch starter, reliable vet, and a young guy we've been grooming. Feels good man feels good.
