I know of him, I do like Jazz....not sure the nick name makes any sense really or has ever been used before. Not hating on bustamente...just don't think that name works

I wouldn't mind it but to me it doesn't make sense when there is Duke Williams playing down the road.

I don't think it's deliberate but a lot of people here (probably due to autocorrect) have been calling Ellingson 'Ellington' I think that's where it came from

Yup- my phone always autocorrects it to that.

 

Also- did you get Cofaj to flip you the bird at the last game?

always figured Lawler was gonna bolt for 1 yr then be back here...almost happened sooner than expected with a trade, but still think he re-ups here next yr

I doubt it, some cake-sniffer is still going to offer him at least $250k in F.A. and that's too much to pay a single target when the job can be better executed by a committee of very good receivers like they've assembled in Wpg.. Have to pay Desmki more next year as well.

I don’t follow the Argos very closely but I’ve never heard of either Churchill or Giffen… meanwhile the bombers got the league MOP and a top 3 P/k in the league… I’d say that trade worked out ok 

Yup...steal of a deal...Leggs has become automatic almost now...no concerns there for me...his demeanor and body language is night and day diff than last yr...and early this yr...i think he well on his way now

Churchill has only really been mentioned when he left the team for a bit earlier this year (for family reasons iirc). He's back with the team but both guys are on the PR.

yup......Faj is special alright....taking them right down the toilet bowl....I read today that they are now 'praying'  to save their season, as they don't control their own destiny .... That's all they have left....Faj better get out a fresh supply of  his 'geebus sprinkles' and lead the prayer

Cgy gonna want/need those wins...they will.sweep the sad sacks...and cant see ott sweeping the Cats...the Cats prob only gonna need to win 1 of their last 3

6-12 gonna look soooooo good on that pathetic fan base...

I wasn't worried about him at all. He was a rookie last year and just needed to mature. His leg strength this year is really improved as well.

100 percent agree

Do we want the Riders to win mostly because of a better chance of us beating them if by a miracle they make it to the Cup?

When you're the top team ainec you don't worry about those things. Take care of your own business the opponent doesn't matter.

What?

The majority here seem to not want them to make it. The only reasons I would want them to get to the Cup through the back door are:

1. It would make Grey Cup week in Regina a lot more alive for all the fans in attendance. Since I will be there, I’d want to enjoy that energy. 

2. Beating them again at the Grey Cup would complete the cycle of Winnipeg winning another “first time” event at Mosaic over the Riders, and would completely avenge the 2007 loss to them and could erase that bad memory forever.

No. I hope they lose out.
