Jake Dolegala needs to be this teams starting QB moving forward. His poise has been elite and heâs been making great decisions. Obviously needs to keep it going, but letâs strike out the potential suspense now.

Ur a special kind of stupid if ur a grown adult screaming at a youth-ref during ur kids game.
1st: That kid whoâs reffing is doing more for the sport than u ever did
2nd: Thereâs a 99% chance that NONE of the kids on ur team is going pro
3rd: Youâre embarrassing ur kid
That was one of the best gameâs Iâve had the privilege to call. I feel for the locker room. Especially the defensive guys.
This team is going to look MASSIVELY different in 2022.

stakeholders desperately need to flip the convo, & media & existing partners need to carry it. This

needs REVENUE GENERATION/ENGAGEMENT, NOT NEW RULES. Itâs embarrassing that we donât understand that growth has nothing to do w/ rules of this great game.
The CFL conversation should be about incorporating betting and fantasy in more ways, not adding a fourth down every bloody off-season.
People will bet on ANYTHING, 3 downs, 4 downs, 9 downs, doesnât matter, simple as that. Want to grow your fan base, thatâs it.

Interesting contrast/feel between those who chose to not wear masks & those who chose to continue to wear em. Def more ppl choosing to wear them, but there was ZERO feeling that anyone was being judged for what choice they made. It was a WIN.
