Caught fire in a grey cup like Marcus crandell.

Miss when Safeway sold the $20 tickets in the family/no liquor zone. Then you could just move seats.

Can VA win a big game? Hopefully they playcall pass plays for more than 5 yards for him.

Stanback has been a lead leading rusher but he is 30. Free agent and went to BC because of Adams.

Mills is 27 and has similar stats but he also hasn’t been available. He was scratches for an issue and went away as well. Anyone what happened with him? A player that might have caused rifts for the way he acted.

Also former Stamp under Wally and the DC for Toronto is looking for a DC role. William Fields.

The guy who maybe made the greatest play in Stamps history, certainly for a regular season game.

Think you mean Willie Fells?

Maybe in Regina reunited with Mueller as a backup depending on what they do with Harris.

Would be hilarious the shift in depth. They want Harris for 5 years. Harris and Maier lol.

Trey Ford and ????

BC talking about how they can recapture the 2022 Rourke.

Winnipeg and Calgary currently have the 2 proven starters as of right now ow and we have depth.

What a difference a top Qb makes.

One day after becoming the face of the Calgary Stampeders, Vernon Adams Jr. confirmed that he’s open to renegotiating his contract, albeit with an important caveat: he still has to be compensated in accordance with his high level of play.

“I told (Dickenson) I’m for the team and I want to build a good team around me, but at the same time, I want to get compensated fairly as well. Whatever that looks like on paper, if we need to change some things up, we can. I’m open to it, but it has to be fair,” said Adams on Wednesday. “But I do want to build a good team around me, get some good players in here, and try to change the culture up a little bit.”

Well if Adams renegotiates it’s a sign that the Stamps will at least spend to the cap.

[Paulie Walnuts]

I would read that full article.

Adams sounds like a great guy and for the team.

Sounds like the Stamps have told him about their approach to free agency and he is going to be a big piece of that.

Yeah, the part about VA being excited to work with his former coach at Eastern Washington as well as being active in the community. He's making it tough not to root for him lol.

Kilam the front runner for the Elks? He was runner up when they brought Jones back.

They do have this...and prices have gone up a lot less than inflation. Section L is mostly full most games.

I hope Mark Kilam gets the job, he deserves the opportunity to be a HC in this league.

[Junglist]

I hope he goes to Edmonton also because he’s not a good coach.

[Paulie Walnuts]

If you watched that Adams interview I don’t know how you can’t be excited to have him on our team. Forget the talent the person seems like a great guy.

It’s no wonder players want to follow him to Calgary.

This honestly feels like when Barker got us Copeland he recruited Burris hard. I did feel bad for Jones at the time because they publicly went after Burris while having Jones but when you can get that type of talent you have to go for it.

[Roof-Daddy]

The Stamps have almost always had great QBs, it's why they've had long stretches of being a juggernaut. It's easy to build a winner around guys like Flutie, Garcia, DD, Burris and BLM.

The brief period in the early 2000s and this last couple of seasons they were mostly a joke and it's because they didn't have the next QB ready to go like they have so many times.

Hopefully VA gets the franchise back on track again.

I still remember wanting the Stamps to grab Collaros back when he was injury prone and bouncing around but they still had BLM. You knew Bo didn't have much left in the tank but I get being loyal. Just missed that window and instead Winnipeg got to benefit from snapping up Collaros when they did.
