Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
Deserving shout-out to Manny for an awesome career. Arguably Ring of Honour stuff. Hope we see him again soon and why not on the TSN panel. Sounds like the Bombers are kicking tires on Milt again.

Re: League Thows The Book at Chad Kelly
So much for a fair trial. And yet if they would have re-newed the contract none of this would have happened. Crickets from Ryan Dinwiddie as well. The whole thing seems weirdly targeted to me. Silver cloud is a fresh and healthy QB ready for the stretch run. Would not surprise me if they add Taylor ...

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
It's a business. The players know it and accept it. Every player who signs a contract knows and accepts that they might not be around to see the end of it for a host of reasons. Who's to say BC didn't try to sign him to a 1 year deal last year and he refused to take anything less than 2 years? The ...

Re: NFL road rocky for Rourke after Patriots draft QB
I agree Rourke is likely to stick to the NFL for now.
Alternatively he could be taking snaps and making new film in a months time vs waiting for a chance to be a backup. CFL money's not that bad. Life is short. Playing careers are shorter.

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
Seeing again nothing new with honoring player contracts from the team perspective with several players released across the league despite having a deal in place. Chandler Worthy and David Menard among them. For a guy like Menard who may have been influenced by a two year deal at age 32 and then afte...

Re: Lions sign Christian Covington
Seeing $300,000 mentioned but can't see it as being realistic.
Could see it being a popular jersey though.

Chase Claypool
So much for the Chase Claypool to the CFL speculation and nice to hear he has signed a one year deal with the Bills. Hoping it is a good situation for him and he gets his career back on track with a strong year.

Re: Yikes! Lions 2024 potential free agents
Hard to knock the NFL experience for what appears to be another bargain price but maybe more of an opportunity for Nelson to transition into a coaching role which doesn't mean he won't be a contributor on the field this year. I doubt they sell many jerseys. Reminds me again that the Lions are Rick C...

Re: Lions sign Christian Covington
Appears to be a true feel good story with Covington returning. I expect a lot of leadership that will benefit the young guys he will be playing with. Doesn't sound like money was an issue.
Kind of thinking Daniel Joseph is going to be in the rotation with Cherry and Bemiy.

Re: CFL Coaching & GM Changes for 2024
Nice to hear that Chris Rainey has landed a high school coaching job in Ocala, Fla. It was mentioned that he had been operating as the Chris Rainey Speed Shop which I found very appropriate. IMO he had great running form. Wishing him the best in the new job.

Re: Lions sign QB Dolegala
Harris won't need to run because instead he can just hand off or pitch out to Ouellette, one of the CFL's top RBs. Ouellette is probably doing sit-ups as I write this and good thing because he is going to get pounded. Him staying healthy will be a feat on its own. I do like him as a player but ther...

Re: Lions sign QB Dolegala
Best of luck to the good fans of the Riders. They have been a patient lot and a credit to the league for the consistent show of support for their team. I agree that they are going to play Harris. It's not what I would do. If I am a defensive coordinator playing the Riders the first thing I think is ...

Re: Lions sign QB Dolegala
Mace is a rookie HC with a rookie OC. He wants his HC career to get off to a good start. No way would he start out by entrusting his own job security in a totally unproven talent like Fine, in the most important position on the field, when he has a seasoned proven veteran like Harris. Risking thing...

Re: Lions sign QB Dolegala
Obviously it will take a VA injury for Dolegala to get anything more than garbage time reps. Same thing goes for any #2 behind an entrenched starter. Totally agree that barring a VA injury Prukop will be busier. I doubt Dolegala is part of a succession plan. VA is under contract thru 2026. Dolegala...
