There's a huge difference in the number of players who have opted out for each team: SSK 25 CGY 14 HAM 14 WPG 9 OTT 9 TOR 7 BCL 5 EDM 5 MTL 2 I suspect that most of these players will return to the CFL but it does seem odd that so many Riders players opted out. 25 players, its like a entire startin...

Catching on in the NFL for a CFLer has always been about being at the right team when an injury opens up a roster spot combined with not having to compete with a less talented but high paid draft pick. And now Covid makes it even trickier.

I agree 100%. I would have paid good money to Elemimian and others and got some other less expensive QB.

Someone like Travis Lulay ?

I didn't agree with signing Reilly in 2019 for what he was paid (maybe the 2015 version, with a few years less hard mileage on him though would have been worth it). I doubt Wally would have signed him for that price if he had still been in charge of BC in 2019. I agree 100%. I would have paid good ...

MBT going to free agency is a big one. I liked what I saw from him last year. Like him better than Mike Reilly to be honest. Believe most opt outs were one year deals with Ricky Collins being an exception. His deal requires him to go back to Edmonton if he doesn't make the NFL. CFL didn't really co...

wow, that's great on the free merchandise........ i have always liked some of the BC Lions polo golf shirts i've seen on the sidelines or on the internet....... but mostly i've only been able to find "product sold out" or "only small size left" on internet...... not sure which companies. reebok? ad...

I am not the guy to research it, but it would be interesting to come up with an all time team based on who had the most number of all star selections at each position.

i have said this a few times. but i think the CFL should change things up some and the federal government should be a major sponsor going forward beyond covid. nothing different than the CBC or the national ballet. and for the money, CFL benefit/dollar would be astronomically higher than the CBC. c...

I don't put too much blame on Ambrosie. I'm not sure that a 2020 season was ever viable for the CFL (barring a large infusion of cash). No other pro league needed such an infusion to operate. No other pro league has the challenges of the CFL. I do agree that his $150m pitch was perhaps not as well ...

Wally gets the call at HC, but if I wanted to win games it would be Don Mathews as HC.

I would have had Passaglia as punter with his ability to run for a FD and Paul McCallum as FG kicker with the stronger leg of the two. I'd also prefer Jim Young over Arceneaux, although the way they did it both players made the team. Banks and Miles should also be on the team instead of Carter and G...

I would replace Jamie Taras with Rob Murphy.

Maybe they are all unpaid volunteers. Apparently not Ambrosie. $750,000 + Qualifies as a private corporation for reporting purposes though so we know what the accountants tell us. You might be overpaying your commissioner and his too large staff when 3 out of a 9 team league, in the 3 largest citie...

So you're sayin' that $150M from the Feds was just to run the comish's office?
