While I agree the game has gotten faster because of the addition of the two line pass. The players aren't that much bigger or stronger. Over the last...

Agree, yes Trestman has only had really two qbs in the CFL. That is all he has needed, but he did very good things in the NFL, some of his players had...

[mikejth]

So your position is they get a better opportunity not being counted when they aren't playing (because if they were counted they likely don't see the roster)...

The number is closer to 7000 players annually leave Div 1 and 2 schools. NCAA rosters are limited to 85 scholarship players, at 130 Div 1 and 170 Div...

Agree, they gave him the opportunity to develop a skill set. There are a number of team that are doing that, Edmonton has and continues to give players...

Not inferring Jones is an idiot for having to play all three at the same time during a game injuries do happen. I am stating that having all three on...

Where have I said I worked for the CFL head office......

[mikejth]

This makes no sense, you exempt the position hoping it will encourage the teams to develop national qbs, then "when and if" they start you want...

Funny this would come up time and again. We saw this in the game against Calgary, even Jones commented on it. We had people complaining about the...

In terms of valuing Canadian talent, I think Jones is with every other coach and GM in the league in believing without good quality Canadian you don't...

[mikejth]

The reason Canadian's were taken out of the ratio for QBs, was because there were enough National QBs. So what would happen is that the majority of...

I am surprised there is this much discussion about shamwow, really he isn't even in Edmonton's top 10 as a receiver this year. I can see this being...

I prefer a more balance schedule all year round, ideally we should be able to go 1 week against the west and 1 week against the east. Edm went 5 and...

As for the rematch, I think that is what makes the Labour Day game so important and adds to the importance of the game. I remember back in 1981 when...

[mikejth]

People are making a bigger deal of this then they have to. Last year Ott beat Edm twice and Winnipeg once, tied Calgary and got blown away by Calgary....

The question that needs to be answered, is this a good riders team that had a bad game, or was this riders team that has been around for the last year...

[mikejth]

I know the history....where did i say they have ever accepted...it is the fact they made such big deal about not wanting it that has made it a bigger...

[mikejth]

Call it what you want, the riders were never in a position to use their legitimate within the rules cramping injury during the game. Yes bomber fans...

This is some left wing CBC person writing about something he doesn't understand. Frankly, the whole concept of the Banjo Bowl grew not because of the...

[mikejth]

As much as you want to list 4 big plays that cost us the game, similarly one could argue the only reason it was close at the half was because of the breakdowns...
