I'm really happy for Bo. What a great comeback season.

This was quite funny - Second time this season that a punt has hit the jumbotron at BC Place.

So we got rid of Bo for Jake.

Something tells me this isn’t when we got rid of Burris because we don’t have a Bo to take over.

Dark times.

At the time nobody knew if his arm strength would ever return. Last season was pretty ugly but props to the Ti-Cats for sticking with him. He's got his arm strength and confidence back and it's good for the CFL. The league badly needs some up and coming QB talent though as most of the league is relying on mid-30's QB's.

Trevor Harris is throwing hospital passes today, a couple of minutes ago to Schaffer-Baker and just now to Shawn Bane.

Meanwhile, Masoli keeps throwing the ball to the wrong team.

Both teams are allergic to scoring touchdowns thus far today.

What a joke of a taunting call on Montreal.

Suddenly and maybe even quietly, after 7 wins in a row, Winnipeg looks like the best team in the league again. I don't get the sense that many realize they've won 7 straight.

The Bombers are getting what a lot of the teams in the league aren't. Good QB play.



This has just been a bad season of football. Most of the teams look really weak at key positions. If I looked at the stats, if the CFL page wasn't so bad, red zone efficiency is bad.


When you watch a Riders game and a ton of seats are open, the leagues got an attendance problem. Usually it bumps in most cities after labour day, but I doubt it has.

Football across the board has been bad. If the NFL can’t find good QBs I see no hope for the CFL.

The TV ratings have been decent though and that's probably saving the league right now. The issue is that a lot of teams are depending on mid-30 year old QB's and there's a lack of up and coming talent at the position. Stamps should hopefully be in position to draft Kurtis Rourke but he will probably exhaust his NFL opportunities prior to coming to the CFL.

I know he was ours but man the league misses Huff. He probably is the best talent evaluator in CFL history.

His fingerprints are all over anything good right now in this league.

Crum, Brown, Rourke, Ford, I think there's some up and coming younger QB's

Rourke is established. The rest are no good.

It really is Mitchell, Collaros, and Rourke. After that it’s meh to garbage

Writing off Dru Brown as no good leads me to believe you're speaking directly out of your ass

Rourke looks like he could be a star. Brown has looked just okay (he's statistically inferior to even Maier). The rest look pretty forgettable. It's pretty bleak IMO.
