Now that's a touchdown. Just shoved it down their throats.

Was at the game. Riders were undisciplined, Edmonton wanted it more.
JC Sherritt is a monster. Wow

Not that Toronto making a stupid move should be surprising at this point but that makes 0 sense unless they know he is about to be arrested/deported.
What a terribly run organization. Thank god we got rid of Barker before he could run the Stamps into the ground. (Although Huf's decisions last offseason may just do that anyways.)

@ChrisIve I don't know his plan, but if I were to guess, I'd say having the right type of players (Read: attitude) on the team.

Wow...leading rusher in the league gets sent packing??
Something MUST be up, otherwise there would be zero reason to gas him...at least trade the guy if nothing else.

Not buying it completely yet....they didnt know what they were going to go with offesively til week 7?
Boyd is still the leading rusher....they wish not to have success in that spot regardless of "style" ?
Just bizarre..Stamps can use another weapon.

So getting rid of their best offensive player is the best way to move their team forward?
I guess they can't can Ray after just dealing for him be he has been holding the offense back much more than Boyd has.

I don't disagree but you'd have to think that the Bombers will be all over him.

Edmonton should be interested as well as they can't think Hugh Charles is a good option up there, especially with the pathetic QB's they have. But I guess Tillman is the GM there and he never fails to surprise with his stupidity.

Jim Barker when running things himself is a mess.

Well obviously this is more to do with off the field stuff than performance. This is going to make it much easier to defend the Argos as I look at those years in Edmonton where they didn't have a solid running game and those were the worst years of his career. Good for the Bombers I suppose as they are probably offering Boyd the highest RB salary in the league as we speak.

I'd be shocked if the Esks picked up Boyd. Charles has been their best offensive player, as sad as that is, and they are likely to get Messam back from Miami. He hasn't done much in Phins camp.

Rob Murphy isn't a great guy either I would take his words with a grain of salt.

It's like going to Jose Canseco for opinions of ex-teammates. I think there may be merit with the 'attitude issues' but it's easy to pile on guys in this situation. Two years in a row the Argos have released a key player in mid season (Lemon last year). Maybe there's more problems than just the players in that organization.

Charles may have been the best player but that is more by default since everyone else was awful.
I thought Messam was extremely overrated last year and not very impressive but Tillman likely wouldn't bring Boyd in anyways as he would prefer to lose with "his guys" then make a smart move.

He'll likely end up in Winnipeg.
