One would think the CFL would Impose a roster freeze at a determined date during the season giving credibility and fairness to the current assembled team. Signing a player during the playoffs, Isn't that better suited for the off-season, minor league rules and regulation. Nothing personal against Rider management for trying to better their club.
Does Taman like to reuse his coffee grounds too?
LOVE this pickup, this guy is good who got caught in the numbers game in BC! He can catch and man he is fast!! well done!!
GLAD TO SEE THAT MANAGEMENT IS NOT BLIND TO THE FACT THAT OUR RECEIVERS ARE NOT SCARING ANOBODY...
RE: ANON #1: HAVE TO THINK THIS SIGNING IS MORE FOR NEXT YEAR COUNTRY
They signed him to the active roster? Must not be happy Carr and some of the other import receivers.
mrt_man:
Is there a reason why you are yelling (all caps)? We can all type in lower and upper case so I'm guessing you can too.
Hey @mrt_man, why so BOLD and RAGING, try some decaf and relax man.You have the Insider Info that this signing Is more for next year country.....
I suspect this is an attempt to abtain info out of him about the Lions, if the Riders win this week!!
Roughriders management seem to be getting ahead of themselves. Have they already played the Stampeders and won and are now getting ready for the BC Lions next week, ...... Calgary not liking this move, good or bad on Saskatchewan ???? time will tell tomorrow.
