Hey look got me to bite on the jig

So you want Taylor and BA back? About as desperate and poor choice as we could make imo. 

What would you do?

Love those guys but they washed up and retired imo

Strevy

This is a cheap, poorly coached team with a QB that is two years past his expiration date.

No need to look any further on why they are bottom feeders.

Pigskin

Kelly will report to burn unit once the team lands in Winnipeg.
TSN turning point, Strev17 can't make the 1 yard and we turnover the ball. Zero points.
Hogan has no answer in the 2nd. half for Calgary's D.
Castillo big mistake kicking the ball into the end zone.
Jones with a bad penalty. Cost us 44 yards.

The mistakes just keep adding up.
Don't go through life looking in the rearview mirror.

This is a team that has juggled the salary cap with good success over the years.  Well coached with a rookie OC.  Zach has one more year left imo.  Middle of pack 4-4.

Quote from: Strevy on August 10, 2025, 04:05:20 AMThis team knows they are not good enough and play like it.  Jackson is here, Buck put Zach back in lol?  Which two starters on D do you think would be backups on any contender?  You know the answer.  They are nationals that don't even have to play a snap unless injuries.  One can chase down kicks one can barely run and should never see the field.

Anyway, this team is bad and the score flattered them today.  Streveler brings fire and lifts the team, Zach is flat and takes sacks or tosses picks.  Today he was hesitant and scared to toss it to Calgary so he went down.  He played bad. 

Guessing the medical staff clears him baes on his health, not ability to grip a **** football.  Dumb decision.


Can't make sense or follow most of this and that I can understand I don't agree with

I commented elsewhere that Castillo hit a legit 63 yard field goal. I guess it has double meaning today.

When I first typed it i was referring to Paul McCallum's 62 yard field goal that was re-scored as 63 yards in 2023. Truth is, it was 62 and change.

Others interpreted it to mean that Castillo's kick was a legit CFL record whereas the NFL kicker that nailed a 70 yard FG did it in an exhibition game.

Not really sure what other post you're referring to.  But I'm interested...

Is the Castillo kick today a CFL record?  A CFL tie?

And an NFL reg. season record too?
Never go full Rider!
