August 26, 20195 yr comment_420888 Yup..roll with Augustine..he is more than capable.. Riders will still have to respect the play action..or RPO cause if vfc they dont..they still will get burned Be the perfect time now to sub in Grant for Lawler or Matthew's on certain sets.. major motion. 2 fast guys to have to send coverage to cover with motion out of backfield and still have to contend with Strev and whoever the rb will be
August 26, 20195 yr comment_420889 Yup, roll with Augustine. He runs well, is anxious, and the Riders don’t really know him. Its the perfect time. And it is a way to keep August going on September 1st.

Won't have to mess up ratio. We had backup LB and DB last week as DI's. Can easily put Santiago on for one of them and pop on Dondre Wright for John Rush to chase kicks and backup secondary/WIL/SAM.

August 27, 20195 yr comment_420897 Devils Advocate. If you're the league why would you suspend one of your marquee players for the highest rated game of the the most important non playoff weekend of games . Could this suspension have not waited ?

It waited already. The process is the process. The game is going to get eyes either way.

August 27, 20195 yr comment_420900 Places like Popeyes and GNC dont care about the end user. They have thousands of products from multiple companies all over the world. To them they want your money and will sell anything not knowing what is actually in the product(s). Which really tarnishes the few companies that actually do product testing and will back their products with scientific testing, documentation and make the results available to the user. GNC is also know to take product and cut it with soy fillers to make more money.

Could this suspension have not waited ? Uh... because he was cheating? If Harris didn't want to get suspended, he shouldn't have played with fire. The timing of the suspension sucks, sure, but some conspiracy nuts seem to think the league has it out for us (which is preposterous) and intentionally timed it for the back-to-back games with the Riders. The league took so long because they likely didn't want to suspend him until they were absolutely sure he was in violation of the drug policy. The CFL would look way worse if they suspended him prematurely, only to find out it was a false positive. What you are suggesting is nothing short of utilitarianism i.e. "greater good" mentality, the fact it's the highest rated game and he's a marquee player are irrelevant - rules are rules... the drug policy and suspension rules are in place to protect the sanctity of sportsmanship - they should be applied to Harris in the exact same fashion as any other player.

August 27, 20195 yr comment_420903 Can't just go with Augustine, we don't have a CDN to back him up. Santiago is the way to go...maybe split the reps.

August 27, 20195 yr comment_420912 Too bad you don’t get credit for starting an international - Hansen has played great so many injuries and our backups step up - I don’t see that changing just because it’s Harris

Half the league is doping or on some sort of supplement that will be on a banned list within the next 5-7 years. People are in dreamland if they think that drug use is uncommon. Look at the muscle mass on some of these players. No way a person gets that big without doing some kind of drug. It's not possible. Look at the "clean" body builders. Runts compared to the guys that take drugs. Quote Fainaru-Wada and Yesalis dropped some bombs: While the journalists' efforts have sparked countless federal investigations into the use of steroids in baseball, Fainaru-Wada said other sports have done very little, even turning a "blind eye" to the problem. He cited the National Football League's astute public relations tactics as reason why the league "skated on the issue." "You look at these guys, these are not the normal human beings that we all coexist with. Some 300-pound guy running a 4.4 in the 40 is not normal," Fainaru-Wada said. no kidding.

Like this guy? Still has his medals. Quote Carl Lewis has broken his silence on allegations that he was the beneficiary of a drugs cover-up, admitting he had tested positive for banned substances but claiming he was just one of "hundreds" of American athletes who were allowed to escape bans. "There were hundreds of people getting off," he said. "Everyone was treated the same." Lewis has now acknowledged that he failed three tests during the 1988 US Olympic trials, which under international rules at the time should have prevented him from competing in the Seoul games two months later. And just like the people on this thread whining about Andrew, Canadians were ashamed, and angry and dissapointed when Ben Johnson tested positive. And is gold was given to a guy who was doing the same thing he was. It's even more ridiculous when you consider the drugs that are legal, the painkillers that these guys take in large quantities, that are probably worse for them than steroids.
