Gonna have to say no considering where the game is this week.

We all know Zach likes to tip them back, no way this could work out good for the team

Should have had a choice: "ok if he uses Swift's jet and doesn't miss a minute of practice time or is late/hungover into HAM". That's my choice. I'm not totally heartless, and if he can do it without impacting the team too much, he's an adult, he can make his own choices.

That said, a guy who was totally focused on getting his bad team better would not want to be distracted by the ultimate distraction... especially when a decent chunk of the problem is himself.

I think either way O'Shea will put a cone of silence up and we'll have a hard time figuring out if he went or not without major sleuthing.

Pretty sure many involved will make it pretty darn obvious he is there. Like social media posts/pics. What would be the point of going and not hitting up social with your pics with Taytay?

Let's also keep in mind Zach probably wants a post-football career... maybe on TSN or other media. Pics with Taytay can go a long way with advancing that!!

Attendees aren't allowed to use their cell phones or cameras.

But, obviously we will find out tomorrow afternoon if Zach went or not.

Friday's practice is closed so a reporter may ask if Zach practiced or not. O'Shea might say they would need to check out the injury report when it comes out later.

Then that means there will be plenty of official videographers. They'll probably compile a customized set of pics/clips for every VIP attendee, as well as release general vids to the public (probably for pay).

Funny, I have no idea how all the "influencers" whose only raison d'etre is to have selfies 100% of the time will live with this. What's the point of going if you aren't selling your influence on socials? I wonder if they will have metal detectors and strip searches for phones.

We're not beating Hamilton this week so he might as well go.

Tall order, not impossible order

He should go. This is once in a lifetime. Three drink limit.

Blueforlife · July 03, 2026, 04:36:44 PM

forum split on the issue, good comments, keep the votes coming, we need to know!

Why, because it's famous people getting married? A multi million dollar wedding is the same as any other wedding. It's not the splendour of the event that should come into play IMO. Supposedly over 1,000 people to attend.

I'd have the same opinion if they were getting married at City Hall.

Blueforlife · July 03, 2026, 04:56:49 PM

why not? Has nothing to do with the fact they are famous, he would want to go if they were poor and / or not famous. Maybe even more so to support them.

A player's close friends are having the celebration of a lifetime, that is an event not to be missed. Give our leader some rope and I bet he throws a few on a rope. Time to sling nasty after a nice break. I believe this team is based on the core values of trust, respect and accountability. Letting him go is based on those organization values.

I bet this would give the CFL a little media exposure just like when he was in the box previously. Think positive, glass can be half full. Don't spill it out b/c you are grumpy about a party.

2 drink limit but must have 3x food LOL.- protein and veg only LOL.
