After watching today's scrimmage and the past 4 days of practice there is zero reason to go scrap-heaping somebody else's cast-offs. Fulgham and Eberhardt aren't just looking like leading candidates but are looking like seasoned vets who came to camp with spots locked up. Eberhardt made a highlight...

The Lions debuted a new-look FanFest featuring three separate events on Saturday, Play with the Pros for kids in the morning, a scrimmage at Hillside Stadium in the afternoon and a downtown block party with food, games, vendor booths, entertainment and player autographs in the evening. Previously a...

It will be interesting to see if someone of note gets cut from other teams and tempt the Lions to bring another receiver in. Sounds to me as Fulgham and Eberhardt are leading candidates to fill the openings left vacant by Rhymes and Whitehead. No depth to speak of behind either. Same goes for Cottoy...

Happy to hear no further changes planned for the rules related to kickoffs. Still feel the 40 is too much field position not earned after a field goal to give up. Nice to see they gave it some thought and made a good decision. My guess is you will see more teams gamble on third down close to the goa...

Fairly decisively worded comment from Chad Kelly as he steps back from camp seems like a positive move at this point. No doubt there is lots still going on behind the scenes. I would like to see him back. Highly doubt the plaintiff is paying her own legal fees as a civil case would be expensive. Str...

I think Winnipeg is going to 6 game list bighill all season, so his contract doesn’t count against cap. Winnipeg is a confident bunch but even the die hards must be getting concerned. Training camp reports from Winnipeg mentioned Bighill looking heavier than before and now with the six game it appe...

Sorry Don, but I have to disagree. Bo has hung on too long for love of game. Arm strength isn't there, no mobility, accuracy meh...he's a shadow of his former self (leadership is still there though but that can't win you a lot of football games on its own). I can see the same thing happening with B...

I want to see Bo Levi successful in the CFL but I found it surprising that Hamilton bet big time signing him when Calgary who will no doubt hire him to coach someday make the decision that Bo was too risky and possibly wanted that higher money for others. Bo is a slam dunk to coach with the Stamps ...

A couple of curious things about Morrow. Calgary did have concerns about his wrist at free agency time. That was 3 months ago and they still haven't circled back. Currently their RB room is loaded with mostly NAT fullbacks. They still have Mills and Logan but Logan is their premiere returner. They ...

Mike O'Shea usually does a good job of staying away from making public statements but it seems the Bombers are being fairly outspoken regarding off season developments this year. All good in Winnipeg though and they really didn't know Andrew Harris was taking a supplement to enhance his virility. I ...

Every GM has to look at these FA decisions on a case by case basis. What needs are they trying to fill and what sort of priority did they place on them. Having been willing to let Carey go to make room for Mills Calgary had to be looking at more as depth/insurance behind Mills. Whether they got him...

Regarding taking a physical as a free agent in the process of signing with a new team, Jamal Morrow was one with a lingering issue that stopped Calgary from signing him. Not saying the Riders were not aware of J.E-C issue.

If Riders were to put Edwards-Cooper on the 6 game IR, they would have to pay him but it would not count against the SMS. By releasing him they may have just said something like: we have already paid you $20k, don't move to Regina just yet but call us when the shoulder is 100%. I keep forgetting re...

Did the Lions know Edwards-Cooper's shoulder injury was still lingering, so they didn't re-sign him in Free Agency? And then the Riders give him a signing bonus without checking his shoulder????

Good thing they did not re-new Craig Dickenson cause everyone else is a genius.

Surprised to see Terry Godwin released.
