Matthew Scianitti is tweeting that James Franklin will not start this coming week. Mcleod Bethel-Thompson will be the Argos starting QB.

Wow, I can't believe MBT is still around playing professional football. I used to follow UCLA many moons ago and fans affectionately called him "Law Firm" back then. Looks like he transferred to Sacramento State (Ricky Ray's alma mater) but still barely played (his college career totals: 1,615 yards, 8 TD, 13 INT).
Since graduating in 2010, he's been with a number of NFL teams but has never played a game (or at least attempted a pass).

The receiving core is brutal and the defense gives up 30+ a game. Franklin hasn't been good but they have bigger problems than him IMO.

Not the way you'd like to see Messam's year & career possibly ending.
Quote:
The Saskatchewan Roughriders have released running back Jerome Messam following a criminal charge dating back to November of 2016.
The league also announced, in a statement issued Monday, that it will not file a future contract for Messam should any team attempt to sign him:
“The Canadian Football League is aware that Jerome Messam has been charged with Voyeurism, a Criminal Code offence. He has been released by the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Commissioner Randy Ambrosie has informed all member clubs that the league will not register a contract for Messam should any team attempt to sign him. We will have no further comment on this matter as it is before the courts.”

Woah, Good for the CFL this is a few times now where they've stated that they won't honor a contract.
Tough way for a career to end, and it is the end.

Sounds like it was him filming during a consensual sex act, which if he was filming without telling is creepy. Nothing on if he distributed though.

Quote:
Messam was a Calgary Stampeder in 2016 and a Calgary Police spokeswoman said the charge "relates to the alleged video-taping of a consensual sexual encounter with a victim.
"It is alleged the video-taping was done without the person's consent."
The adult complainant came to police in April 2018 after being told Messam had the alleged tape, which police said had not been posted anywhere.
Messam was charged on Sunday, police said.

Quote:
The running back spoke to TSN's Farhan Lalji on Monday.
“I hope that very soon I will be found not guilty of this accusation and that I will be able to continue my playing career. I appreciate all of the people that have stood by me and are supporting me right now," said Messam. "To the fans, I hope that you will remember how hard I worked on the field and the difference I tried to make in my community in every city I've played in.”

Vernon Adams didn't care for the "We want Johnny" chants.
"Yes, it hurt me to hear that. I have nothing more to say or to give to the supporters of Montreal. Never again," Adams told La Presse, per Google translate. "Their behavior was very disrespectful. It was not like I was playing badly. I do not want them to ask me for anything, not even a small piece of equipment."

Wrong thing to focus on Vernon.

It's almost like he's the only person in the room that doesn't realize he was brought in to be a backup.

I get he doesn't feel great about it but let's be fair here, the Als suck, he's not starter material and fans in Montreal aren't exactly known for being the kindest fans around.
They traded a ton to get Manziel and I don't blame the fans for wanting to see him play. There was a much better way to handle that.
In other news I see Collaros has been activated but I don't think he's gonna start this week.
