I love these teams getting all bent out of shape to make a huge offer in 2010. Now, NJ is an exception, in that it was manifestly clear that it was time to give up on their previous experiment. They had a good run, got to the Finals, looked really strong - and then they got Wince. 3 years later the whole thing implodes (predictable). But what do these other teams do if they can't sign one of those three guys? Do you really gamble your franchise's development for 3 or 4 years away on getting one of those guys to sign? I dunno, pretty weak strategy out there...
that stupid , liquored up kicker is at it again , huh? in related news , we are quite happy with Noel Prefontaine here in E-Town , thank you very much.
Esks vs. Riders tonight on TSN. Esks NEVER win at Taylor Field (I refer to call any of these stadiums by their "new " names) , so I will stck by tradition and say 25 - 22 Riders. Let the "fire Maciocia" cries start for another year !!!
Speaking of E-Town sports , enjoyed a spectacular June night out at Telus Field last night watching the Edmonton Cracker Cats play the Reno Silver Sox. We now have a Golden Baseball League franchise here. Probably equivalent to AA ball , pretty decent talent , I was suprised. Fun night out.
Tell GBVH I searched high and low for a size 8 Cracker Cats pro fit hat to no avail. Apparently some downs syndrome kid with a huge mishaped cranium scooped the last one an hour earlier.
Bukkake, is the "Crack" portion of that because meth is no longer the preferred narcotic of choice among the street folk?
I've got the Eskies to cover tonight. That line has to be inflated at 4.5 and Vegas knows that the three people who regularly wager on CFL action will be hammering the defending champs. Suckers.
Got Yanks hammering the Mets (money line) +112
Mk, sorry bro but can't do the tix...talked to Mexican and he said he's staying down in that hell hole for good.
can you fucking believe that name ... the Cracker Cats ? Sooooo bad. Probably one of the many reasons they dra 500 fans a game.
I have the Esks to cover , but not to win.
btw .. the 'stache on Giambi is classic.
yf,
i'm taking the revs tonight.
shhhhhhh.
i think cracker-cats is an edmonton thing.
cracker cats?
eskimos?
brickmen?
drillers?
eeeeeeesh.
i think that cracker-cats league has teams called t-bones and jack hammers. oh, and goldeyes and railcats. par for the course.
I would as well...logic overides favourites in my book.
gbvh ...
your thinking the wrong league ... all those teams played in the Northern League , which the Cracker Cats were part of the past 3 seasons. They have since moved to the Golden Baseball League..

and yes , we have had some awful team names here. Don't forget the Rush , Chill and Skyhawks too ...
Cracker Cats is the worst though.
PS - Winnipeg Goldeyes is a solid name dude ...
