CFL is doing its best annual impression of a bush league shits how with teams dumping any contract they don't like and starting from scratch again for the new season. Few off season bonuses ever get paid and players are left to blame for the league becoming overcome with player transition.

Honour the player contracts as they do in other leagues. Hold the GMs accountable for their actions. Drain the swamp.

So Demerio Houston is charged with domestic violence. Now what?

CFL has painted itself into a corner and obviously cannot allow him to participate based on the Chad Kelly shit show. No doubt they will lose some players but I guess it was important to make a stand. Especially if they start doing background checks.

With the Riders loading up again they could do worse than Lou Purifoy for safety on a 1 year deal. Arguably best in league at the position last season. Unfortunate O'Day would have an issue with that based on their history.

Kind of hearing Jarius Jackson may not be in Winnipeg where he was hired to help the new OC which qualifies as regular Bomber subterfuge picking up right where they left off last year whining about losing another Grey Cup..

Also thinking letting Shea Patterson go was playbook related and believe Bombers are taking a huge risk going with Streveler even if he is a good guy. They'll go as far as Collaros can take them and if he goes down they are done imo. Even if Collaros stays healthy they will be challenged to win 10 games

Could also see Mike O'Shea in the final year of his contract not renewing as I have never seen any loyalty to Winnipeg from him yet.

Seems to me the Riders will have their hands full with Ottawa Thursday night despite being 3.5 point favorites. Redblacks have a solid lineup on both sides. If Adarious Pickett is back up to speed he will give the Rider O line fits. I don't see the Riders running the ball too much. Hoping smoke is not a factor.

Big 2 points for the Riders that will come in handy later on. Proline paid the over for those that follow along.

Mario Alford, Thomas Bertrand - Hudon, Sam Emilus, Keeshawn Johnson all looked good. Harris threw for 277 and lives to play another game. Unfortunate for Bertrand-Hudon his best run was called back or he would have been close to 100 yds. I wonder if AJ Ouellette noticed.

Weird Dru Brown throws another 400 yd game only to lose which also happened last year. Riders absolutely stuffed the run and the D sealed the win late which bodes well for their season.

Clash of titans tonight with the Argos in Montreal. CFL experts are picking the Alouettes.

I was in the stands last night. Riders were a little more polished for this time of the season than Ottawa.
