Not Benny's area of expertise, as I recall, though he was better than our successor.
That said, all the best that things come into a better place for Don.

CFL Plus/Preseason Live
Great news about Pre Season games streaming live on CFL Preason Live. Now, I'm not the most tech savvy guy, but where do you sign up? I see the directions (including providing your email) but I can't find a link to enter. Do you have to wait until the game starts? Some league decisions are so stupi...

Re: Joe Kapp Dies at Age 85
Alas. If only Joe could have hit Angelo Mosca harder.
Willie Fleming is still alive and lives here in the Cleveland area.

Re: Who will be moving on?
I see from Instagram that Michael O'Connor is training with Rob Williams QB Motion. While I thought at times before his injury that he should play a bit faster, I sure hope he catches on somewhere. It seems the love for the dying breed of Canadian QB left with Nathan Rourke. Granted you have to pro...

Re: Rourke NFL workouts: chooses Jacksonville
Believe it was 14 QBs picked this NFL draft. Might say something about how Nathan Rourke was viewed by a lot of teams down there - how many teams "looked" at him in his NFL try-out tour? It says a lot about was already known going into this draft. Whereas last year's draft was known to be...

Re: Bye bye Shrum Bowl and SFU football
One comment Cromartie. Football was the only sport SFU played in the Lone Star Conference mostly because the GNAC dropped football. Most likely that was due to them being down to only 3 schools out of their 10 participating in football after Azusa Pacific dropped the sport after 2021 citing increas...

Re: Bye bye Shrum Bowl and SFU football
It all gets complicated. The governing organizations don't like the idea of schools only participating minimally. For instance to compete in Div II the school must sponsor at least 5 men's and 5 women's sports or 4 men's and 6 women's. They must sponsor at least 2 team sports for each sex and each ...

Re: Rourke NFL workouts: chooses Jacksonville
Jaguars signed QB C.J. Beathard to a two-year contract extension. Beathard has been Trevor Lawrence's backup in each of the past two years. During his time in Jacksonville, he has thrown 13 passes for 68 passing yards and an interception. He previously made 12 starts over a three-year span with the ...

Re: Who will be moving on?
I see Dane and VA as similar in that they can get in their own way when things don't go their way. I believe some missed plays can affect their confidence and they start to overthink things. VA even mentioned in an interview that he tried to do too much when he came here, fully aware of Rourke's su...

Re: Montreal Back Under League Control
As I see it, the problem with CFL franchise sales is that there simply don't seem to be that many suitable buyers in any given market. As a result, it often seems that the CFL can't really be too choosy if the alternative is no ownership and being league run or worse, folding. This is also a proble...

Re: Who will be moving on?
I sort of hoped that BC would sign a QB who might compete for #1 rather than just give the job to Vernon Adams. I'm not sold that this offense fits Adams either. Maybe they'll luck out like other teams and find a back up who can eventually be a starter. I feel bad for Michael O' Connor if he's gone...

Re: Who will be moving on?
It has been said before that running backs a dime a dozen. And it has also been said, and worth repeating, that the good RBs that can run inside and outside, catch, and block are a lot more scarce. IMO, Butler is one of those guys and worth every dime he gets paid. I just hope it ends up that the L...
