The Frankish Reich Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 And the goalposts are at the GOAL line, where they belong. Do you need to cross the back of the end zone to score a TD? No! We win XXV if the goalposts are left where they belong! Right! They sprung that rule change on us in 1974 with little notice. How quickly did they think we could adapt by getting a stronger legged kicker? Unfair! By the way, I know it was a "safety issue" so it's never going back, but I did love the goalposts on the goal line, with that big goalpost standard a few yards into the end zone making things more interesting ....

BringBackFergy Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Also got the Ball State wonder Jonathan Newsome, although he's injured. TJ Graham is on the Alouettes practice squad Is he really? If true, I can only hope Doug Whaley is the Assistant GM there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the tech and engineering in the world, how about retractable goalposts? Not gonna hold my breath on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 ...pretty amazing stat......... The CFL cap will be set at $5.15 million for the 2017 season or an average salary of $111,956 per active roster player.[40] However, most clubs spend between $7,000,000 to $8,000,000 per season on salaries due to injury exemptions allowed under the cap.

Punching Bag Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 And Russell Wilson is, well, damn it. Can't believe we traded up for this guy leaving Wilson on the board And many other teams also passed Wilson. Bills are damned if they do or damned if they don't but that is why you like the Bills for the damnation, right? Is he really? If true, I can only hope Doug Whaley is the Assistant GM there as well. Are you hoping to be hired since he only signed incompetent people? I used to watch the CFL when they expanded to US and when I used to work in Canada. Different game but more football then that international pretender called "football". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Bills Detective Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 EDM @ BC on ESPN2 at 10pm tonight. (Saturday) If DaQuan Bowers puts up double-digit sack numbers, should we cut either Hughes, or Lawson, at the end of the season and do whatever it takes to get Bowers to come here?
