WEBVTT

1
00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:34.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, let's see if we remember how to do this.

2
00:00:35.119 --> 00:00:39.280
<v Speaker 2>I did not realize five weeks off here, Hussey and

3
00:00:39.320 --> 00:00:41.560
<v Speaker 2>I were going to kind of stack our bye weeks.

4
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:43.119
<v Speaker 1>A couple busy weeks.

5
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:45.880
<v Speaker 2>Here ended up a little bit extended, and spoiler alert,

6
00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:47.679
<v Speaker 2>we might have a couple more. But I think once

7
00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:49.960
<v Speaker 2>we get really past Labor Day, and they always say,

8
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, the CFL season doesn't really count to Labor Day,

9
00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:56.240
<v Speaker 2>which is always phenomenal marketing in my opinion for a

10
00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:58.719
<v Speaker 2>football league. But we are back here at least for

11
00:00:58.799 --> 00:01:03.640
<v Speaker 2>one week. Tons to get to I mean literally, like Hussey,

12
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:06.120
<v Speaker 2>first off, how are you doing doing good?

13
00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:09.079
<v Speaker 3>Read? Thanks for having me as always really glad to

14
00:01:09.120 --> 00:01:12.799
<v Speaker 3>be back. I mean it was a big break, big hiatus,

15
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:16.000
<v Speaker 3>but again, a lot of news to talk about and

16
00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:16.840
<v Speaker 3>catch up on.

17
00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:19.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so if you're back here, like I said, like

18
00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:22.640
<v Speaker 2>and subscribe, we're back for a week, and it's probably

19
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:24.840
<v Speaker 2>two weeks off and then once we get into September,

20
00:01:24.879 --> 00:01:27.239
<v Speaker 2>I gotta go back now to Boston for work. I

21
00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:28.120
<v Speaker 2>was there for pleasure.

22
00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:28.760
<v Speaker 1>Back again.

23
00:01:29.159 --> 00:01:31.959
<v Speaker 2>But if you like all this CFL Week eleven recap

24
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:34.760
<v Speaker 2>kind of mid season review here, however we want to

25
00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:37.879
<v Speaker 2>brand that, please like and subscribe. When we get to

26
00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:41.000
<v Speaker 2>four thousand subscribers, I think what I'm gonna do. UFL

27
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:43.120
<v Speaker 2>doesn't want to do in ticket giveaways, so I think

28
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:46.879
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna do custom Royal retros jerseys. We'll do a

29
00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:49.280
<v Speaker 2>CFL one and then we'll do a UFL one, so

30
00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:51.480
<v Speaker 2>we'll probably be two different winners there. I'll deal with

31
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:54.159
<v Speaker 2>Dustin about that, but the nice thing is I can

32
00:01:54.280 --> 00:01:56.319
<v Speaker 2>just pay him and then he'll send it out directly.

33
00:01:56.359 --> 00:01:58.280
<v Speaker 1>So like it, subscribe if you like any of this.

34
00:01:58.400 --> 00:02:01.840
<v Speaker 2>But we've done my Doug flute, and we've done the

35
00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:04.560
<v Speaker 2>UFL custom and we can do xfls have anything. But

36
00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:07.640
<v Speaker 2>we'll get two different things like that, and we'll get

37
00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:11.240
<v Speaker 2>all that situate. So I get subscribed. Jason and I

38
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:13.240
<v Speaker 2>have a lot of rants we're gonna get to here.

39
00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:15.919
<v Speaker 2>I watched the Great Games, I watch all the games here.

40
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:17.879
<v Speaker 2>I'm all caught up. But I mean even just news

41
00:02:17.919 --> 00:02:19.439
<v Speaker 2>of the week, I think we would have enough to

42
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:22.919
<v Speaker 2>kind of, you know, fill this whole thing. We won't

43
00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:25.080
<v Speaker 2>do play by Pelly breakdowns of all this, but time

44
00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:27.199
<v Speaker 2>to get to this has to be the craziest week

45
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:29.719
<v Speaker 2>ten to eleven ever of a season. I mean normally

46
00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:31.800
<v Speaker 2>this is like the summer doldrums, right.

47
00:02:32.439 --> 00:02:35.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, well yeah, I feel like a lot of

48
00:02:35.039 --> 00:02:38.680
<v Speaker 3>people in the summer. It's it's a slow news month.

49
00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:40.759
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's kind of like the dead of the season.

50
00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:43.280
<v Speaker 3>And like you said, it easily gets going after Labor

51
00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:46.039
<v Speaker 3>Day when NFL cuts go and you start to see

52
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:48.840
<v Speaker 3>a lot more movement there. But yeah, it's been a

53
00:02:48.960 --> 00:02:51.039
<v Speaker 3>very very hectic week in the CFL.

54
00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:54.360
<v Speaker 2>So we have Larry Thompson, right, new Elks ownership, they

55
00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:55.439
<v Speaker 2>get their first big win.

56
00:02:55.560 --> 00:02:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I watched.

57
00:02:56.039 --> 00:02:58.400
<v Speaker 2>I did not realize that with such an ass whoopy

58
00:02:58.439 --> 00:02:59.840
<v Speaker 2>and I saw it kind of the score and I

59
00:02:59.879 --> 00:03:01.479
<v Speaker 2>was track and we were out of town. And then

60
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:03.360
<v Speaker 2>you said you were at the game for that, right

61
00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:07.400
<v Speaker 2>the McLeod Bethel Thompson. Uh, I get We'll get to that,

62
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:10.319
<v Speaker 2>because you know, it's always great to benure starting quarterback

63
00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:12.680
<v Speaker 2>and then have that have your backup get hurt and

64
00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:15.159
<v Speaker 2>then have to bring back inbou LEVI that was interesting.

65
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:19.919
<v Speaker 2>We have Chris Jones now Chris Jones as the defensive assistant.

66
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:22.800
<v Speaker 2>I guess for the tie Cats. I guess the Edmonton

67
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:24.759
<v Speaker 2>Elks beat them so bad. They said we got to

68
00:03:24.759 --> 00:03:27.840
<v Speaker 2>bring Chris Jones in here, We've got Chuck Kelly Returney,

69
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:30.439
<v Speaker 2>we have the Nathan Wurke. I have a lot to

70
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:33.719
<v Speaker 2>say about that. Anything else major news I'm missing here.

71
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:35.280
<v Speaker 2>It feels like there's a ton of stuff.

72
00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:39.039
<v Speaker 3>I think you covered it everything except for the games themselves.

73
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:43.080
<v Speaker 2>So do we want to talk through the Snathan work

74
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:45.280
<v Speaker 2>thing first up? Because I really thought, like, Okay, you know,

75
00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:48.000
<v Speaker 2>I was out of town. The Lions got killed by

76
00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:51.319
<v Speaker 2>the bombers, you know, shut out, I go on Rods Show,

77
00:03:51.479 --> 00:03:53.919
<v Speaker 2>We're you know, we're on vacation. I kind of pooh

78
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:56.080
<v Speaker 2>pooh Rick Campbell, and I don't know if he's going

79
00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:57.800
<v Speaker 2>to be the one to get us over the hump,

80
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:00.759
<v Speaker 2>you know us as in the BC line. I got

81
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:03.599
<v Speaker 2>a lot of feedback from that internally, externally, a lot

82
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:09.520
<v Speaker 2>of comments everything. I felt so bamboozled by this Nathan

83
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:13.319
<v Speaker 2>work of it all, and like because I it made

84
00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:17.600
<v Speaker 2>me forget how terrible this team is in and of itself, right.

85
00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:19.399
<v Speaker 1>And I feel like I boughted into the hype.

86
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:21.839
<v Speaker 2>I have a story for all this, But what was

87
00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:24.160
<v Speaker 2>your initial reaction to this Nathan work. I know we're

88
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:25.680
<v Speaker 2>a couple days late with the initia, whatever, But I

89
00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:27.839
<v Speaker 2>want to get your thoughts because this really was a whirlwind.

90
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was just wow.

91
00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:32.759
<v Speaker 3>Like when I saw the notification when I was on

92
00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:35.279
<v Speaker 3>my lunch at work, I was just like, wow. I

93
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:38.199
<v Speaker 3>didn't expect things to, you know, for him to come

94
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:40.839
<v Speaker 3>back to the CFL this quickly. I did expect him

95
00:04:40.839 --> 00:04:43.040
<v Speaker 3>to come back, just given the fact he was really

96
00:04:43.079 --> 00:04:45.839
<v Speaker 3>bouncing around the NFL the last couple of years. To

97
00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:48.920
<v Speaker 3>come back in twenty twenty five, but not for this season,

98
00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:51.959
<v Speaker 3>and to see him start the first week while he's

99
00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:54.720
<v Speaker 3>back is a whole nother thing altogether. But I think

100
00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:58.360
<v Speaker 3>it's in general, it was a great news obviously for

101
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:02.160
<v Speaker 3>the CFL. I think this is the single most marketable

102
00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:05.360
<v Speaker 3>player that this league will probably ever have, just given

103
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:08.040
<v Speaker 3>the fact that he's a Canadian. He's an absolute stud

104
00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:11.720
<v Speaker 3>at the position. Besides this game yesterday, but I think,

105
00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:15.600
<v Speaker 3>you know, I'm just was really pleasantly surprised by that news.

106
00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:18.480
<v Speaker 3>And like I said, I was even more shocked than

107
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:20.920
<v Speaker 3>he was starting the very first week.

108
00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:24.000
<v Speaker 1>So we so we get out, we're seeing our family.

109
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:25.879
<v Speaker 2>We're out at the cabin by the lake, and you know,

110
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:27.920
<v Speaker 2>we got in the night before and I always go

111
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:30.439
<v Speaker 2>a little too heavy, kind of the first night of vacation,

112
00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:32.600
<v Speaker 2>right might have a couple of extra glasses of wine

113
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:35.040
<v Speaker 2>or whatever. We're sitting by the campfire and I wake up.

114
00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:37.240
<v Speaker 2>The next day, Dorothy wakes me up. She goes, we

115
00:05:37.279 --> 00:05:38.839
<v Speaker 2>need to go to the store. We had forgot some

116
00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:41.439
<v Speaker 2>stuff we're trying to get, you know, breakfastes. We need

117
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:43.480
<v Speaker 2>to go to the store right now. I pull up

118
00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:47.120
<v Speaker 2>my phone. I see so I'm like, I'm a little delirious.

119
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:50.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm trying to get up. I see the Nathan work news.

120
00:05:50.079 --> 00:05:52.959
<v Speaker 2>I see JJ McCarthy likely out for the season, and

121
00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:55.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, what in God's earth is going on?

122
00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:57.600
<v Speaker 1>I can't process this. I go get upstairs.

123
00:05:57.920 --> 00:06:01.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm stuck in the house with nine people. Nobody cares

124
00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:02.959
<v Speaker 2>about this at all. I'm like walking down the stairs. Ago,

125
00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:06.079
<v Speaker 2>you guys don't understand probably the biggest story in a

126
00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:09.000
<v Speaker 2>decade just happened here in the CFL, in terms of

127
00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:10.000
<v Speaker 2>Nathan weren't coming back.

128
00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Like that's cool.

129
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:15.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, you know, you guys, and it really took

130
00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:17.720
<v Speaker 2>me forever, and there's been a lot of you know,

131
00:06:17.720 --> 00:06:19.040
<v Speaker 2>we watched the games last night.

132
00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Was really excited about that.

133
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:25.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, there's been a lot of criticism over Okay,

134
00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:27.759
<v Speaker 2>was was Nathan started too soon? Like you said, he

135
00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:30.319
<v Speaker 2>came in on Wednesday and three practices and what do

136
00:06:30.399 --> 00:06:32.519
<v Speaker 2>we expect and what do we expected with Chad Kelly

137
00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:35.800
<v Speaker 2>and all of that. But like I said to me,

138
00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:39.839
<v Speaker 2>I viewed this as, oh wow, the team realizes this

139
00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:42.160
<v Speaker 2>is make or break, right, this is the Gray Cup.

140
00:06:42.279 --> 00:06:43.959
<v Speaker 1>We need to go do this. You know, we got

141
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:44.720
<v Speaker 1>to bring in Nathan.

142
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:47.839
<v Speaker 2>We're going to pay him eight hundred thousand dollars next year.

143
00:06:47.959 --> 00:06:49.079
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's just crazy.

144
00:06:49.079 --> 00:06:50.800
<v Speaker 2>And the marketing budgets, you know, we're not going to

145
00:06:50.839 --> 00:06:53.639
<v Speaker 2>pay all that, but everything, and I thought, Okay, this

146
00:06:53.680 --> 00:06:56.920
<v Speaker 2>team is really serious about winning, right. They realized we're

147
00:06:56.959 --> 00:06:59.600
<v Speaker 2>hosting the Gray Cup. We have all these people and

148
00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:02.360
<v Speaker 2>work aside, and I want to get your thoughts on

149
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:05.519
<v Speaker 2>his performance. But I posted my thoughts on Twitter last

150
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:07.519
<v Speaker 2>night because I got home. We watched half the game

151
00:07:07.560 --> 00:07:09.600
<v Speaker 2>here and then I hadn't seen my mom in two weeks.

152
00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:11.920
<v Speaker 2>We go over there, I'm like, do you have CBS

153
00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:14.399
<v Speaker 2>Sports Network? And we pull it up. I'm watching the game.

154
00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:18.720
<v Speaker 2>This is the same team, this is the same team,

155
00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:20.639
<v Speaker 2>and it kills me to think that you would go

156
00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:23.439
<v Speaker 2>out and make this work, right, you spend the money

157
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:25.360
<v Speaker 2>and the time and all this kind of stuff to

158
00:07:25.399 --> 00:07:29.079
<v Speaker 2>bring him in. I wish Nathan Work could play defense.

159
00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:30.800
<v Speaker 2>Can we get him on that side of the ball? Like,

160
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:34.279
<v Speaker 2>I don't understand how many times? Again, I don't know

161
00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:36.399
<v Speaker 2>if this is there a Rick issue or a Ryan

162
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:40.319
<v Speaker 2>Phillips issue or whoever's issue. How many times do I

163
00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:42.759
<v Speaker 2>need to see four guys hanging out with Brady Olavera

164
00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:45.399
<v Speaker 2>unable to tackle him? How many times do I need

165
00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:49.360
<v Speaker 2>to see BC defense leaving someone completely wide open? Like

166
00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:51.600
<v Speaker 2>this is still the same team. You can put Nathan

167
00:07:51.639 --> 00:07:52.959
<v Speaker 2>Work in there. I don't care if he would have

168
00:07:53.079 --> 00:07:55.879
<v Speaker 2>three weeks to practice. That was only half the issue

169
00:07:55.879 --> 00:07:57.839
<v Speaker 2>with this team. And it was just so frustrating to

170
00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:00.199
<v Speaker 2>me because this is it's the same team, and I

171
00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:02.720
<v Speaker 2>bought into this, like, oh, they're really serious about this.

172
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:03.839
<v Speaker 1>The same with the Mariners.

173
00:08:03.879 --> 00:08:06.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh man, we signed for Randy rose Rain, like we're

174
00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:09.560
<v Speaker 2>really serious about winning. Doesn't seem that way to me.

175
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:11.600
<v Speaker 2>Seems like they came out just as fat as they

176
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:15.000
<v Speaker 2>always do. First off, what was your thoughts on Nathan's performance?

177
00:08:15.040 --> 00:08:16.600
<v Speaker 2>Because I think it left them to be desired.

178
00:08:17.439 --> 00:08:19.439
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he looked like a guy that just got there

179
00:08:19.480 --> 00:08:22.160
<v Speaker 3>this week. It doesn't matter what name it is. I

180
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:25.600
<v Speaker 3>think that, you know, in time, you'll obviously become the

181
00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:28.199
<v Speaker 3>player that he was before leaving for the NFL. But

182
00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:31.079
<v Speaker 3>you know, it just shows you that, like you do

183
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:34.519
<v Speaker 3>need time to practice with your receivers. You know, Winnipeg

184
00:08:34.639 --> 00:08:37.200
<v Speaker 3>is a bad matchup for b C, regardless of when

185
00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:40.399
<v Speaker 3>they played the last several years. And it's quite obvious

186
00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:43.480
<v Speaker 3>that Winnipeg, despite the records going into this game. And

187
00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:46.320
<v Speaker 3>we'll get into it later, but Winnipeg's kind of creeping

188
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:48.879
<v Speaker 3>up on them in the standings now all of a sudden,

189
00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:51.840
<v Speaker 3>and you know, just Winnipeg just owns b C the

190
00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:54.480
<v Speaker 3>last few years. So I don't know what BC needs

191
00:08:54.519 --> 00:08:57.000
<v Speaker 3>to do to get around that. I think that I

192
00:08:57.039 --> 00:08:58.960
<v Speaker 3>was talking to you last night. I think their defense

193
00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:02.279
<v Speaker 3>has declined lined from the last couple of years. I

194
00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:05.080
<v Speaker 3>think that they made a couple of interesting decisions in

195
00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:07.720
<v Speaker 3>the off season, obviously some of them under their control.

196
00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:10.519
<v Speaker 3>With Matthew Betts going to the NFL, and that looks

197
00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:14.120
<v Speaker 3>like he may stay there with his performance this weekend.

198
00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:16.720
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, I don't know what BC needs to do

199
00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:20.279
<v Speaker 3>going forward. But uh yeah, I think that you know,

200
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:24.200
<v Speaker 3>it was a struggling performance from Nathan worked on Sunday.

201
00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:27.519
<v Speaker 1>And you know, I think it was far hunted put out.

202
00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:30.320
<v Speaker 2>Okay, we're selling all these tickets, we're opening up, we're

203
00:09:30.320 --> 00:09:32.120
<v Speaker 2>going to add all this. It's going to be thirty

204
00:09:32.159 --> 00:09:35.200
<v Speaker 2>thousand plus. And I had tweeted out, you know when

205
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:37.960
<v Speaker 2>people say that BC only cares about concerts, and I

206
00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:40.200
<v Speaker 2>know they had that Fred. I don't even know who

207
00:09:40.240 --> 00:09:43.159
<v Speaker 2>that guy was to play that, Like my brother could

208
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:45.320
<v Speaker 2>have done a juggling act at halftime for like I

209
00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:47.840
<v Speaker 2>have no context for any of that or what that was.

210
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:50.279
<v Speaker 2>But you think that you get all these people back

211
00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:52.919
<v Speaker 2>in like this is the time, we're getting all these

212
00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:55.679
<v Speaker 2>like you know, we're undefeated at home, we got Nathan

213
00:09:55.759 --> 00:09:58.200
<v Speaker 2>coming in, all this stuff and just to poop on

214
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:00.639
<v Speaker 2>all that goodwill is just in saying to me, and

215
00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:03.159
<v Speaker 2>I cannot figure out, Yeah, the inability with this team

216
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:05.919
<v Speaker 2>to show up. You you know, you had the Winnipeg

217
00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:08.440
<v Speaker 2>on the ropes. Now they've won the season series, right,

218
00:10:08.559 --> 00:10:10.879
<v Speaker 2>isn't that the same with the Elks now where these

219
00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:15.039
<v Speaker 2>pivotal West Division matchups. I just I don't if you

220
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:17.600
<v Speaker 2>can't show up at home with Nathan for BC. And

221
00:10:17.679 --> 00:10:20.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, God blessed Nathan for taking the blend of

222
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:25.039
<v Speaker 2>everything and saying, Wow, this is my fall. Nathan doesn't

223
00:10:25.039 --> 00:10:27.639
<v Speaker 2>play defense. This wasn't all Nathan's fault. I mean, BC

224
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:30.519
<v Speaker 2>couldn't stop a nose. But how many times does Winnipeg

225
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:32.559
<v Speaker 2>need to walk the ball down the field? Like I said,

226
00:10:32.600 --> 00:10:36.039
<v Speaker 2>olivera unable to be tackled. I saw this last year

227
00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:38.679
<v Speaker 2>in the West Division Final. I saw this when they lost.

228
00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:40.840
<v Speaker 2>It was that in October last year, Like I've seen

229
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:42.759
<v Speaker 2>this every time. It's just I just can't figure out

230
00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:45.039
<v Speaker 2>why this team is unable to show up at big moments.

231
00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:48.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and I think another thing is their offensive line

232
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:51.080
<v Speaker 3>just cannot compete in these moments. And I think that

233
00:10:51.639 --> 00:10:54.720
<v Speaker 3>Winnipeg is one thing with them. They've shown the last

234
00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:56.960
<v Speaker 3>couple of weeks they're starting to look like that old

235
00:10:57.000 --> 00:11:00.679
<v Speaker 3>Winnipeg Blue Baumber's defense with the you know what, Jefferson

236
00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:03.200
<v Speaker 3>really starting to pick things up as we get towards

237
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:05.600
<v Speaker 3>the second half of the season. So I think that's

238
00:11:05.639 --> 00:11:08.080
<v Speaker 3>such a huge thing for the Blue Bombers and a

239
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:10.519
<v Speaker 3>scary thing for the rest of the CFL. But yeah,

240
00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:14.320
<v Speaker 3>BC's offensive line a major weakness for years now. I

241
00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:16.120
<v Speaker 3>think the last couple of years they were a little

242
00:11:16.159 --> 00:11:18.399
<v Speaker 3>bit better. But you know, when it comes to these

243
00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:21.480
<v Speaker 3>matchups against Winnipeg, they just can't run the ball and

244
00:11:21.639 --> 00:11:24.639
<v Speaker 3>they cannot protect the passer and it doesn't matter who's

245
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:27.799
<v Speaker 3>in there. Vernon Adams obviously got shadowed a few weeks

246
00:11:27.799 --> 00:11:31.480
<v Speaker 3>ago against the Blue Bombers as well. So, like I said,

247
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:33.720
<v Speaker 3>I don't know what the Bombers are, so the Lions

248
00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:36.240
<v Speaker 3>should do to get over this hump.

249
00:11:37.039 --> 00:11:39.080
<v Speaker 2>And I mean and it was staying near a shut

250
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:41.240
<v Speaker 2>out anyway. I mean, I know they had that garbage

251
00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:43.279
<v Speaker 2>time touchdown at the end eighth. It wasn't even in

252
00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:45.840
<v Speaker 2>the game ride. It was that Chase Brice whatever. Like

253
00:11:45.919 --> 00:11:48.919
<v Speaker 2>I don't even the guys in the group, oh this

254
00:11:49.039 --> 00:11:51.440
<v Speaker 2>guy on the subb I don't. That's outside of my

255
00:11:51.559 --> 00:11:54.000
<v Speaker 2>purview of me. You know the long history of that.

256
00:11:54.039 --> 00:11:56.080
<v Speaker 2>But you know, I mean, you were held to a

257
00:11:56.120 --> 00:11:58.240
<v Speaker 2>field goal for three and a half quarters here. I

258
00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:01.080
<v Speaker 2>just can't figure out as similar that lived through the

259
00:12:01.080 --> 00:12:04.399
<v Speaker 2>Mariners here having a ten game lead, blowing that ten

260
00:12:04.440 --> 00:12:07.200
<v Speaker 2>game lead and now being four games behind the Astros

261
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:08.200
<v Speaker 2>going into tonight.

262
00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:10.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this was your chance.

263
00:12:10.399 --> 00:12:13.919
<v Speaker 2>BC's back to five hundred, right, Winnipeg's one game behind

264
00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:15.039
<v Speaker 2>four and six.

265
00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:15.840
<v Speaker 1>I just.

266
00:12:17.480 --> 00:12:19.720
<v Speaker 2>You don't have that many opportunities here, and I just

267
00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:22.679
<v Speaker 2>can't figure out Nathan Wurk or anything aside that it

268
00:12:22.799 --> 00:12:25.120
<v Speaker 2>just seemed like this team had no energy showing into it.

269
00:12:25.159 --> 00:12:27.080
<v Speaker 2>And they, like they always say the meme now like

270
00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:30.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, somehow Palpa team returned like Winnipeg's back like

271
00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:34.240
<v Speaker 2>they never lost, and it's it's frustrating as someone that

272
00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:36.840
<v Speaker 2>was hoping, you know, God blessed Saskatchewan here for kind

273
00:12:36.840 --> 00:12:38.600
<v Speaker 2>of holding that out, but as someone that was hoping

274
00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:40.960
<v Speaker 2>to see, you know, kind of a difference in the

275
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:44.519
<v Speaker 2>West Division. So disappointed with this and just really disappointed

276
00:12:44.559 --> 00:12:46.480
<v Speaker 2>that they let them get back in because they really

277
00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:47.799
<v Speaker 2>could have shut the door and moved on.

278
00:12:48.799 --> 00:12:49.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

279
00:12:49.039 --> 00:12:51.360
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, and it's gonna get wild. As you see the

280
00:12:51.360 --> 00:12:54.840
<v Speaker 3>standings here, It's it's getting really close from top to bottom.

281
00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:57.960
<v Speaker 3>I think it's really becoming anybody's ballgame the second half

282
00:12:57.960 --> 00:13:00.759
<v Speaker 3>of the season. So I'm really excited for that. I

283
00:13:00.799 --> 00:13:03.159
<v Speaker 3>think that uh, you know, BC still has a chance

284
00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:05.559
<v Speaker 3>to write the ship and we'll see how they respond

285
00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:09.639
<v Speaker 3>next week. I think who do they play next week? Outawa?

286
00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:11.759
<v Speaker 3>I think I think play Autawa back to back because

287
00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:14.320
<v Speaker 3>I think they play them in Victoria the week after that.

288
00:13:14.519 --> 00:13:18.320
<v Speaker 3>So really pivotal matchups coming up against Outawa and Ottawa

289
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:20.440
<v Speaker 3>all of a sudden has the second best record in

290
00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:24.519
<v Speaker 3>the CFL, So that's no easy games either. So I

291
00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:27.080
<v Speaker 3>think it's gonna be very interesting to see how BC

292
00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:29.559
<v Speaker 3>responds from this. Like I said, I think Nathan will

293
00:13:29.559 --> 00:13:33.799
<v Speaker 3>be better. You know, we will expecting to see him.

294
00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:37.320
<v Speaker 3>I will expect him to be better going forward. But

295
00:13:38.120 --> 00:13:42.480
<v Speaker 3>I think that these performances against Whipeg, the physicalities, just

296
00:13:42.519 --> 00:13:44.720
<v Speaker 3>not being able to match them from a physical standpoint

297
00:13:45.200 --> 00:13:49.320
<v Speaker 3>despite their offseason changes is very disappointing. And it's just

298
00:13:49.480 --> 00:13:52.639
<v Speaker 3>interesting how it mirrors last year because I think BC

299
00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:55.759
<v Speaker 3>goes into Winnipeg early in the season last year, beats

300
00:13:55.799 --> 00:13:58.480
<v Speaker 3>them and everybody thinks, oh, it's Beast's year to kind

301
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:00.480
<v Speaker 3>of take the West, and then they lose the rest

302
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:03.240
<v Speaker 3>of the season series. So I mean, it's it's worth

303
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:04.960
<v Speaker 3>noting that happened last year as well.

304
00:14:06.799 --> 00:14:11.120
<v Speaker 2>And the real quick yeah on the the touchdown Victoria, right,

305
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:13.279
<v Speaker 2>because you had brought that up here, you know, coming

306
00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:17.879
<v Speaker 2>up the week after. I remember back when uh, you

307
00:14:17.919 --> 00:14:19.799
<v Speaker 2>know that was announced and we have a we have

308
00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:22.120
<v Speaker 2>a big wedding that next day on the first labor

309
00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:24.120
<v Speaker 2>Labor day weekends. That was really tough for me, and that,

310
00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:25.759
<v Speaker 2>like I think I got to fly out of town

311
00:14:25.960 --> 00:14:26.639
<v Speaker 2>the day after.

312
00:14:27.399 --> 00:14:28.360
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

313
00:14:28.799 --> 00:14:31.080
<v Speaker 2>I for a long time had lamented, oh man, this

314
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:32.960
<v Speaker 2>would be really nice to go see this, you know,

315
00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:34.720
<v Speaker 2>go there and say, I don't want to pay to

316
00:14:34.759 --> 00:14:35.639
<v Speaker 2>go see this team.

317
00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:36.799
<v Speaker 1>Right now at all.

318
00:14:36.960 --> 00:14:37.759
<v Speaker 3>I tweeted last night.

319
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:39.480
<v Speaker 2>I said, imagine you're one of the people that paid

320
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:43.080
<v Speaker 2>to see this and like you said, a total mirror example,

321
00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:44.279
<v Speaker 2>same thing as last year.

322
00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:46.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, looking strong. They come back.

323
00:14:46.639 --> 00:14:49.320
<v Speaker 2>And the scary thing about it is, so they're paying

324
00:14:49.399 --> 00:14:51.720
<v Speaker 2>Nathan what to fifty I think this year, you know

325
00:14:51.759 --> 00:14:54.000
<v Speaker 2>the marketing budget. However, we want to stretch all that.

326
00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:56.279
<v Speaker 2>They got six hundred grand in this kid. The next

327
00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:58.320
<v Speaker 2>two years. I know he is going to be better.

328
00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:00.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm not like, I really don't even and care that

329
00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:02.240
<v Speaker 2>he came in and played sloppy and some of his

330
00:15:02.320 --> 00:15:04.879
<v Speaker 2>reads everything like that doesn't bother me. It's everything else

331
00:15:04.919 --> 00:15:07.399
<v Speaker 2>around it. It's receivers being unable to catch the ball.

332
00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:09.679
<v Speaker 2>It's people being able to tackle, it's being able to

333
00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:11.720
<v Speaker 2>able to stop the run. And when you can't do

334
00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:13.840
<v Speaker 2>that now, I don't know how you're gonna do that

335
00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:16.240
<v Speaker 2>next year when you're paying Nathan work eight hundred thousand dollars.

336
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:18.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how you're gonna do that the next year.

337
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:21.399
<v Speaker 2>I already saw tweets out, you know, when they announced

338
00:15:21.399 --> 00:15:23.440
<v Speaker 2>all the Nathan stuff and like what did they deal

339
00:15:23.519 --> 00:15:25.679
<v Speaker 2>with Vernon? And you know, Rick Campbell, Wow, that's a

340
00:15:25.720 --> 00:15:27.960
<v Speaker 2>good problem to have, and we'll figure that out whatever.

341
00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:29.360
<v Speaker 1>But if you're if you.

342
00:15:29.320 --> 00:15:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Can't win, like I just, I don't know how we're

343
00:15:32.639 --> 00:15:34.639
<v Speaker 2>spected to fix this. And we can't do it this year,

344
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:36.559
<v Speaker 2>how we're gonna do it the next two years when

345
00:15:36.559 --> 00:15:38.080
<v Speaker 2>we're paying this kid even more money.

346
00:15:39.879 --> 00:15:41.759
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, exactly. I think that when you look at it,

347
00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:44.720
<v Speaker 3>I think they'll never have as deep of a team

348
00:15:44.759 --> 00:15:47.000
<v Speaker 3>as they had a couple of years ago when Nathan

349
00:15:47.080 --> 00:15:49.120
<v Speaker 3>was here. I think, you know, when he was making like,

350
00:15:49.240 --> 00:15:51.919
<v Speaker 3>what was it, seventy five K and they were able

351
00:15:51.960 --> 00:15:54.279
<v Speaker 3>to really build the rest of the roster around him

352
00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:56.679
<v Speaker 3>and have all those playmakers. They still have a really

353
00:15:56.720 --> 00:16:00.519
<v Speaker 3>good receiving corps, but they do, uh don't have some

354
00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:02.360
<v Speaker 3>of the guys that they used to have, like dominic

355
00:16:02.440 --> 00:16:05.360
<v Speaker 3>rhymes for example. So I mean, I think it's not

356
00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:07.200
<v Speaker 3>just that, Like I said, the defense has taken a

357
00:16:07.240 --> 00:16:09.759
<v Speaker 3>step back the last couple of years, got a little

358
00:16:09.799 --> 00:16:11.679
<v Speaker 3>older in a few spots, a little bit different in

359
00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:14.039
<v Speaker 3>a few spots. So I mean, this is not the

360
00:16:14.080 --> 00:16:18.320
<v Speaker 3>same team. And like I said, they're a five team

361
00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:20.320
<v Speaker 3>right now. They had a really good start to the season,

362
00:16:20.360 --> 00:16:22.679
<v Speaker 3>it looked like, but the last few weeks I think

363
00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:25.120
<v Speaker 3>they've lost three in a row now, so it's it's

364
00:16:25.159 --> 00:16:28.039
<v Speaker 3>been tough sletting for the BC Lions. And with Ottawa

365
00:16:28.120 --> 00:16:30.200
<v Speaker 3>playing how they are right now, I mean it could

366
00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:32.519
<v Speaker 3>be a five game losing streak for BC, who knows.

367
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:35.480
<v Speaker 2>And they've lost four in the row because they lost

368
00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:37.720
<v Speaker 2>to Calgary before the bye week, so they haven't won

369
00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:40.279
<v Speaker 2>a game since Week six. I mean, they haven't won

370
00:16:40.279 --> 00:16:43.519
<v Speaker 2>the game since. Yeah, last question, because I get I

371
00:16:43.559 --> 00:16:45.480
<v Speaker 2>don't I don't want this to be a totally rag

372
00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:47.000
<v Speaker 2>on the Lions the whole time, but you know, I

373
00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:49.240
<v Speaker 2>posted some of my stuff last night and everything else,

374
00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:53.600
<v Speaker 2>but the I'm curious your thoughts on the contract here

375
00:16:53.639 --> 00:16:57.000
<v Speaker 2>for Nathan because like I said, you know, you couldn't

376
00:16:57.080 --> 00:16:59.120
<v Speaker 2>win with him on the chief and now you want

377
00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:00.440
<v Speaker 2>to win with him on the defensive.

378
00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:02.360
<v Speaker 1>It's like we see in the NFL all the time.

379
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:04.039
<v Speaker 1>You know, Okay, the Bengals get to the.

380
00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:06.319
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl and then we're gonna pay Roe Burrow like

381
00:17:06.319 --> 00:17:08.880
<v Speaker 2>a super Bowl winning quarterback when we didn't even win

382
00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:09.680
<v Speaker 2>in the first place.

383
00:17:09.759 --> 00:17:09.920
<v Speaker 1>Right.

384
00:17:09.920 --> 00:17:11.680
<v Speaker 2>It's the same with the Eagles. We see that as

385
00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:14.039
<v Speaker 2>the same. I mean, geez, you know, Trevor Lawrence. I mean,

386
00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:15.599
<v Speaker 2>look at all the guys that are getting paid to

387
00:17:15.680 --> 00:17:18.000
<v Speaker 2>all these guys that you know you're paying these guys.

388
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:20.240
<v Speaker 2>You pay Nathan like he's won three, you know, three

389
00:17:20.279 --> 00:17:22.559
<v Speaker 2>great cups coming in here, were paying eight hundred thousand.

390
00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:25.440
<v Speaker 2>Thoughts on that because it's six hundred on the books, right,

391
00:17:25.480 --> 00:17:27.960
<v Speaker 2>and then another two hundred whatever in the marketing. Thoughts

392
00:17:27.960 --> 00:17:30.880
<v Speaker 2>on that just in terms of that's a major contract.

393
00:17:32.079 --> 00:17:34.799
<v Speaker 3>I think that's just the unfortunate reality of having a

394
00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:38.079
<v Speaker 3>star quarterback. And like I said, I think that because

395
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:41.559
<v Speaker 3>of who he is and being perhaps the most marketable

396
00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:44.759
<v Speaker 3>player the team and the league have ever had, I

397
00:17:44.799 --> 00:17:47.039
<v Speaker 3>think that they had to give him this contract. They

398
00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:48.839
<v Speaker 3>were not going to let him go to another team,

399
00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:51.599
<v Speaker 3>even though he definitely could up. He wanted to be

400
00:17:51.640 --> 00:17:53.759
<v Speaker 3>in BC and so they were gonna give him that

401
00:17:53.799 --> 00:17:57.480
<v Speaker 3>contract and figure out the rest later. So and I

402
00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:00.480
<v Speaker 3>think another part of leverage he has an this is

403
00:18:00.519 --> 00:18:03.279
<v Speaker 3>that he counts as one of your Canadian starters as well.

404
00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:06.480
<v Speaker 3>And we always know from watching the contracts given out

405
00:18:06.599 --> 00:18:10.599
<v Speaker 3>every year during free agency, that Canadian starter always gets

406
00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:13.839
<v Speaker 3>paid a little bit extra of a premium because you know,

407
00:18:13.880 --> 00:18:16.400
<v Speaker 3>it really helps your flexibility on the rest of the roster.

408
00:18:16.599 --> 00:18:19.480
<v Speaker 3>So I think, you know, I was kind of expecting

409
00:18:19.680 --> 00:18:22.240
<v Speaker 3>Nathan to really break the bank. Honestly, I thought maybe

410
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:24.000
<v Speaker 3>they would even give him a little bit more than this.

411
00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:25.880
<v Speaker 3>I thought that he was going to be able to

412
00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:29.759
<v Speaker 3>really leverage CFL teams into giving him a massive contract

413
00:18:29.799 --> 00:18:32.079
<v Speaker 3>when he came back to the CFL, and rightfully so,

414
00:18:32.240 --> 00:18:35.039
<v Speaker 3>with the performance he had before going to the NFL.

415
00:18:35.160 --> 00:18:38.240
<v Speaker 3>So those are just my thoughts on Rourke.

416
00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:41.200
<v Speaker 2>And with his marketing stuff, because I know that I've

417
00:18:41.200 --> 00:18:45.400
<v Speaker 2>seen a lot of you know, criticisms, positive and negative

418
00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:47.920
<v Speaker 2>kind of whatever, and like it's something they added in

419
00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:49.960
<v Speaker 2>right with the CBA where they can roll.

420
00:18:50.039 --> 00:18:51.039
<v Speaker 1>You gotta do so.

421
00:18:51.000 --> 00:18:54.119
<v Speaker 2>Many media appearances will pay you. Is that just Amar Doman?

422
00:18:54.279 --> 00:18:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Is he just writing?

423
00:18:54.920 --> 00:18:56.319
<v Speaker 2>I mean, is that just coming out of him and

424
00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:58.880
<v Speaker 2>kind of circumventing all of that. Is that you're understanding

425
00:18:58.920 --> 00:18:59.640
<v Speaker 2>of how that works.

426
00:19:00.759 --> 00:19:03.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I'm pretty sure. It's just up to the ownership

427
00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:05.799
<v Speaker 3>of every given team to spend as much as they

428
00:19:05.839 --> 00:19:08.599
<v Speaker 3>want on that. I think they were saying the Three

429
00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:12.480
<v Speaker 3>Diction podcast that they are planning to uh are working

430
00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:15.759
<v Speaker 3>on closing the loophole of that, maybe putting a cap

431
00:19:15.799 --> 00:19:19.519
<v Speaker 3>on how much they can spend for marketing money. But

432
00:19:19.640 --> 00:19:20.920
<v Speaker 3>right now, that's kind of how it is.

433
00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:22.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm fine with it.

434
00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:25.640
<v Speaker 2>I think it's better for the league, right and I think, uh,

435
00:19:26.559 --> 00:19:28.200
<v Speaker 2>I remember when we you know, we had them aar

436
00:19:28.319 --> 00:19:30.599
<v Speaker 2>on years ago, and then after we got done, I

437
00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:32.599
<v Speaker 2>looked up like what is some Mar Domans network and

438
00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:34.440
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh my god, like this is you know,

439
00:19:34.680 --> 00:19:38.240
<v Speaker 2>so you know, Amar, some of these guys, Larry Thompson

440
00:19:38.279 --> 00:19:39.640
<v Speaker 2>kind of all that. You know, we got you know,

441
00:19:39.960 --> 00:19:43.640
<v Speaker 2>we got money to go around here. But again, to

442
00:19:43.799 --> 00:19:46.279
<v Speaker 2>concise it around, you could have the greatest quarterback in

443
00:19:46.319 --> 00:19:48.359
<v Speaker 2>the role, but if you can't tackle anybody, it doesn't

444
00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:50.119
<v Speaker 2>make a difference and you're going to give up you know.

445
00:19:50.319 --> 00:19:50.960
<v Speaker 1>All these points.

446
00:19:50.960 --> 00:19:55.200
<v Speaker 2>Anyway, any other thoughts, first off on the Lion's performance,

447
00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:57.079
<v Speaker 2>and then we can talk winnip big anything else specifically

448
00:19:57.160 --> 00:19:59.079
<v Speaker 2>from that game, because then we'll probably do Chad Kelly

449
00:19:59.079 --> 00:20:00.599
<v Speaker 2>because the argoes were off, and then we'll kind of

450
00:20:00.599 --> 00:20:02.640
<v Speaker 2>get into everything else because we'll talk Elks and all that.

451
00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:06.440
<v Speaker 3>No, not too many extra thoughts, just that it was

452
00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:10.799
<v Speaker 3>really ugly from a BC standpoint, Winnipeg.

453
00:20:11.200 --> 00:20:14.640
<v Speaker 2>You know, like I said, regaining power here, Kolara is

454
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:19.039
<v Speaker 2>still not great. I thought it was interesting Winnipeg tweeted

455
00:20:19.079 --> 00:20:21.000
<v Speaker 2>that after the game. And you know, in context of

456
00:20:21.079 --> 00:20:23.720
<v Speaker 2>like their great defense, like zero touchdowns, you know, two

457
00:20:23.799 --> 00:20:28.799
<v Speaker 2>interceptions forever. I'm like, Kolearo's has five passing touchdowns during

458
00:20:28.839 --> 00:20:32.599
<v Speaker 2>the season. I don't know if I would Let's you know,

459
00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:35.559
<v Speaker 2>let's let's be fair here. I don't know if Koleos

460
00:20:35.599 --> 00:20:39.279
<v Speaker 2>is having quite the MP caliber season as well. But uh,

461
00:20:40.119 --> 00:20:42.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, like you said, Winnipeg defense good enough

462
00:20:42.440 --> 00:20:43.359
<v Speaker 2>to carry them?

463
00:20:44.119 --> 00:20:46.240
<v Speaker 1>Are they back fully? Do you need to see more

464
00:20:46.279 --> 00:20:46.680
<v Speaker 1>from them?

465
00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:48.640
<v Speaker 2>I guess how do you kind of gauge them here

466
00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:50.440
<v Speaker 2>in terms of the West Division?

467
00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:55.400
<v Speaker 3>Well, I'm with you. I think Klara's definitely is still

468
00:20:55.440 --> 00:20:57.359
<v Speaker 3>not all the way back to what we've seen the

469
00:20:57.400 --> 00:20:59.799
<v Speaker 3>past couple of years from him. So I think if

470
00:20:59.839 --> 00:21:03.599
<v Speaker 3>they are going to make a run or in terms

471
00:21:03.599 --> 00:21:06.039
<v Speaker 3>of winning the West Division this year, whether that's finishing

472
00:21:06.039 --> 00:21:08.319
<v Speaker 3>first in the regular season or ultimately going on and

473
00:21:08.359 --> 00:21:10.160
<v Speaker 3>running the playoffs, I think it's gonna have to be,

474
00:21:10.400 --> 00:21:13.319
<v Speaker 3>you know, a defensive led team with Bray Alavera like

475
00:21:13.359 --> 00:21:18.200
<v Speaker 3>really turning into that twenty twenty three MP level Brady Allavera.

476
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:19.920
<v Speaker 3>I think that is really the key, and I think

477
00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:22.920
<v Speaker 3>you're starting to see elements of that. You got Kenny

478
00:21:23.000 --> 00:21:25.480
<v Speaker 3>Lawler back in this game, so that definitely helps clear

479
00:21:25.559 --> 00:21:28.880
<v Speaker 3>us get better. I think he definitely has upticked his

480
00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:32.079
<v Speaker 3>production the last couple of weeks, so that's definitely good

481
00:21:32.079 --> 00:21:34.200
<v Speaker 3>to see. But like I said, it's not really that

482
00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:37.359
<v Speaker 3>MP caliber Zach clearis that we've been used to seeing

483
00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:40.079
<v Speaker 3>ever since he arrived in Winnipeg. So like I said,

484
00:21:40.079 --> 00:21:41.920
<v Speaker 3>I think it's going to have to be more of

485
00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:45.400
<v Speaker 3>a defensive story in Winnipeg. And they're really really playing

486
00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:46.039
<v Speaker 3>well right now.

487
00:21:47.119 --> 00:21:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Kenny Lawler looks great coming back.

488
00:21:49.279 --> 00:21:51.279
<v Speaker 2>It just kills me, like I said, every time a

489
00:21:51.279 --> 00:21:54.519
<v Speaker 2>Winnipeg receiver coutchses this wall wide open and running down,

490
00:21:54.519 --> 00:21:58.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm like that was supposed to be, you know, and

491
00:21:58.160 --> 00:22:00.000
<v Speaker 2>I think it was when BC got blown.

492
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Now you know when it be like, oh the Donut

493
00:22:01.960 --> 00:22:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Boys you're back.

494
00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:03.160
<v Speaker 3>Ha ha.

495
00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:06.720
<v Speaker 2>You know what happens that they got high in their

496
00:22:06.759 --> 00:22:09.319
<v Speaker 2>supply last year and you know they had to buy

497
00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:10.079
<v Speaker 2>and coming out.

498
00:22:10.079 --> 00:22:10.759
<v Speaker 1>I don't know when.

499
00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:13.119
<v Speaker 2>VC's off again here to kind of figure out the regroup.

500
00:22:13.160 --> 00:22:14.720
<v Speaker 2>Like you said, they're going to the Ottawa and then

501
00:22:14.799 --> 00:22:17.079
<v Speaker 2>hold it hosting that back to back, and then they're

502
00:22:17.119 --> 00:22:19.640
<v Speaker 2>going to Montreal. We'll talk through Montreal as well. I

503
00:22:19.640 --> 00:22:22.720
<v Speaker 2>mean there's they don't get a week off to week

504
00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:25.079
<v Speaker 2>sixteen here, then they got a host Toronto. I mean,

505
00:22:25.119 --> 00:22:26.839
<v Speaker 2>this is this is really put up a shut up.

506
00:22:27.319 --> 00:22:32.400
<v Speaker 2>Let's talk to let's talk about the Chad Kelly of

507
00:22:32.440 --> 00:22:34.839
<v Speaker 2>it all. If we don't need to go super deep die,

508
00:22:34.880 --> 00:22:37.240
<v Speaker 2>but just he's back and they're going to be playing

509
00:22:37.279 --> 00:22:40.960
<v Speaker 2>here coming up hosting Saskatchewan. That should be a really

510
00:22:40.960 --> 00:22:43.359
<v Speaker 2>exciting game here. Thoughts on that. I know he had

511
00:22:43.359 --> 00:22:44.720
<v Speaker 2>to meet with Randy and.

512
00:22:44.640 --> 00:22:46.319
<v Speaker 1>Then they had to Okay, he's.

513
00:22:46.240 --> 00:22:48.279
<v Speaker 2>Kind of like a one, one strike and you're out

514
00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:51.240
<v Speaker 2>kind of deal here? What do you make here him

515
00:22:51.279 --> 00:22:54.000
<v Speaker 2>rejoining Toronto and how are they in the standings here?

516
00:22:54.240 --> 00:22:55.279
<v Speaker 1>You know, five and four.

517
00:22:55.640 --> 00:22:57.039
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if they can go on the feet

518
00:22:57.079 --> 00:22:58.440
<v Speaker 2>of the rest of the way here, But what do

519
00:22:58.440 --> 00:23:00.119
<v Speaker 2>you make of this whole check Kelly coming back.

520
00:23:01.720 --> 00:23:06.440
<v Speaker 3>Well, ignoring all the obviously personal questions around Kelly and

521
00:23:06.480 --> 00:23:09.279
<v Speaker 3>what he did or didn't do, you know, this definitely

522
00:23:09.279 --> 00:23:11.880
<v Speaker 3>makes the Argos a scary football team down the stretch.

523
00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:15.720
<v Speaker 3>And I think that considering their quarterback play thus far,

524
00:23:15.799 --> 00:23:18.359
<v Speaker 3>like Camraon, Duke's had a couple of really good games

525
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:20.880
<v Speaker 3>to start the season and then really fell off a

526
00:23:20.920 --> 00:23:24.799
<v Speaker 3>cliff and then Nick arbackle got into a couple of games.

527
00:23:25.519 --> 00:23:27.640
<v Speaker 3>For them to be still sitting at five and four,

528
00:23:27.920 --> 00:23:30.319
<v Speaker 3>that is pretty damn remarkable and it really shows you,

529
00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:33.279
<v Speaker 3>especially given all the players that they lost in the offseason,

530
00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:36.720
<v Speaker 3>because this team got gutted in free agency, this is

531
00:23:36.759 --> 00:23:40.279
<v Speaker 3>a really talented football team. And if they can you know,

532
00:23:40.400 --> 00:23:43.519
<v Speaker 3>hit the ground running with Chad Kelly at quarterback again,

533
00:23:43.599 --> 00:23:45.720
<v Speaker 3>this could be, you know, a team that goes on

534
00:23:46.160 --> 00:23:49.119
<v Speaker 3>a great Cup run this year. I really believe that

535
00:23:49.839 --> 00:23:51.880
<v Speaker 3>and you know, hoping not to see that as a

536
00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:54.880
<v Speaker 3>TI Cats fan, but I think that the reality is

537
00:23:54.920 --> 00:23:58.079
<v Speaker 3>this team was sixteen and three including playoffs last year

538
00:23:58.200 --> 00:24:00.920
<v Speaker 3>with Chad Kelly as starter. That's fair very hard to ignore.

539
00:24:02.039 --> 00:24:04.680
<v Speaker 2>Well, like you said, with the whole Nathan workover all,

540
00:24:04.759 --> 00:24:08.000
<v Speaker 2>two excuse me, It'll be curious, you know, doesn't need

541
00:24:08.039 --> 00:24:09.640
<v Speaker 2>a couple of weeks to kind of get back into

542
00:24:09.640 --> 00:24:12.119
<v Speaker 2>it because Nathan was in I don't know how much

543
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:15.799
<v Speaker 2>that effects, you know, he was going through his mentality

544
00:24:15.920 --> 00:24:18.400
<v Speaker 2>right and getting cut and getting signed and doing the

545
00:24:18.440 --> 00:24:19.799
<v Speaker 2>preseason and doing the.

546
00:24:19.839 --> 00:24:20.279
<v Speaker 1>Kind of that.

547
00:24:20.440 --> 00:24:22.799
<v Speaker 2>He didn't look great for the Falcons in the preseason.

548
00:24:23.160 --> 00:24:25.400
<v Speaker 2>I know Chad's been kind of sitting right. I know

549
00:24:25.480 --> 00:24:27.799
<v Speaker 2>he's been doing some light team drills here lately, but

550
00:24:27.839 --> 00:24:30.680
<v Speaker 2>he's been pretty disconnected right as far as my understanding this,

551
00:24:30.720 --> 00:24:34.279
<v Speaker 2>I'll be curious, you know, Nathan kind of playing American

552
00:24:34.279 --> 00:24:37.680
<v Speaker 2>preseason football doing whatever that looks like versus Chad here,

553
00:24:37.759 --> 00:24:40.200
<v Speaker 2>that's maybe just kind of been not on the couch,

554
00:24:40.319 --> 00:24:42.519
<v Speaker 2>but you know, not certainly not playing in the preseason

555
00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:44.720
<v Speaker 2>game with the Falcons a week before this would be

556
00:24:44.759 --> 00:24:46.680
<v Speaker 2>interesting to see you does he have a harder time

557
00:24:46.720 --> 00:24:48.640
<v Speaker 2>coming back up here than Nathan did, because you would

558
00:24:48.640 --> 00:24:51.319
<v Speaker 2>think if if Nathan struggling here week one, coming into

559
00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:53.720
<v Speaker 2>kind of adapting, I think Chad's gonna take a little bit.

560
00:24:55.440 --> 00:24:57.839
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's funny you say that because I just read

561
00:24:57.880 --> 00:25:00.839
<v Speaker 3>a quote this afternoon from Ryan did. What he's saying

562
00:25:00.880 --> 00:25:04.240
<v Speaker 3>that the way that Nathan Urke played last night, just

563
00:25:04.279 --> 00:25:06.759
<v Speaker 3>given the fact he played, you know, five days after

564
00:25:06.880 --> 00:25:11.640
<v Speaker 3>or so after he signed with BC, really it affects

565
00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:15.400
<v Speaker 3>his thinking going into Thursday against Saskatchewan with Chad Kelly.

566
00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:18.640
<v Speaker 3>I think that he had something about maybe using a

567
00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:22.279
<v Speaker 3>two quarterback system on Thursday just kind of eased Chad

568
00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:25.079
<v Speaker 3>Kelly back into it. But like you said, he hasn't

569
00:25:25.119 --> 00:25:28.240
<v Speaker 3>seen live bullets in a long time, all the way

570
00:25:28.279 --> 00:25:31.119
<v Speaker 3>back to that horrible East Final that he you know,

571
00:25:31.160 --> 00:25:35.039
<v Speaker 3>threw several interceptions in. So I think it should be

572
00:25:35.079 --> 00:25:36.960
<v Speaker 3>interesting to see how he plays out of the gate.

573
00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:40.559
<v Speaker 3>I think that, like I said, I think the plan

574
00:25:40.680 --> 00:25:43.119
<v Speaker 3>might be to ease him back into it, but we'll

575
00:25:43.160 --> 00:25:45.680
<v Speaker 3>have to see what the argos do and how child

576
00:25:45.839 --> 00:25:47.759
<v Speaker 3>Chad Kelly looks in his return.

577
00:25:48.680 --> 00:25:51.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, and I'm just pulling up the game tracker here

578
00:25:51.160 --> 00:25:53.359
<v Speaker 2>so we can get to it after, but the yeah,

579
00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:56.240
<v Speaker 2>Saskatchewan defense is pretty scary right now with coin Mace.

580
00:25:56.319 --> 00:25:58.279
<v Speaker 1>I mean I think that this is kind of you know, right,

581
00:25:58.359 --> 00:25:59.720
<v Speaker 1>I think that this yeah, to.

582
00:25:59.680 --> 00:26:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Come in and you're not playing against the BC lines defense,

583
00:26:02.920 --> 00:26:04.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you're playing against a team that actually knows

584
00:26:04.680 --> 00:26:06.480
<v Speaker 2>how to get after the quarterback and tackle and.

585
00:26:06.440 --> 00:26:10.079
<v Speaker 1>Do everything else. So uh, yeah, I'm really curious.

586
00:26:10.119 --> 00:26:14.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I think Dinwitty, I trust Dinwitty right getting

587
00:26:15.079 --> 00:26:17.000
<v Speaker 2>kind of chat up to speed a little bit more

588
00:26:17.039 --> 00:26:18.400
<v Speaker 2>than maybe I do Rick with all of that.

589
00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:20.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I'm so out umri campbo.

590
00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:21.440
<v Speaker 2>Right now, I can't even stand up, Like I don't

591
00:26:21.440 --> 00:26:23.079
<v Speaker 2>want to get anymore in about everything.

592
00:26:23.079 --> 00:26:24.920
<v Speaker 1>But I'm really having a hard time with it.

593
00:26:24.960 --> 00:26:27.599
<v Speaker 2>Like I think Dinwitty, yeah, can maybe read that a

594
00:26:27.640 --> 00:26:29.160
<v Speaker 2>little bit better going in than Nathan.

595
00:26:29.160 --> 00:26:30.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, oh, this is incredible.

596
00:26:31.759 --> 00:26:34.319
<v Speaker 2>You know, he said ten completions and whatever practice and

597
00:26:34.319 --> 00:26:35.960
<v Speaker 2>he looks great and he comes into the game and

598
00:26:36.000 --> 00:26:38.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I don't even where I'd have to even

599
00:26:38.039 --> 00:26:39.720
<v Speaker 2>pull up with the stats were, but he did not.

600
00:26:40.359 --> 00:26:42.759
<v Speaker 2>Nathan did not have a tremendous stat line here coming

601
00:26:42.759 --> 00:26:43.319
<v Speaker 2>out of the game.

602
00:26:43.359 --> 00:26:44.839
<v Speaker 1>What was just cur What was.

603
00:26:44.799 --> 00:26:49.880
<v Speaker 2>His uh yeah, eight of twenty five six to two interceptions.

604
00:26:50.960 --> 00:26:52.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, I mean, I you know.

605
00:26:53.720 --> 00:26:57.000
<v Speaker 2>Certainly not you know, let me chase here six to six.

606
00:26:57.079 --> 00:26:59.119
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we need to see maybe we need to see

607
00:26:59.200 --> 00:27:03.720
<v Speaker 2>chasing action here. Okay, we've done all right, So we've

608
00:27:03.759 --> 00:27:07.200
<v Speaker 2>done all that. Let's talk Larry Thompson, the Elex and

609
00:27:07.240 --> 00:27:10.079
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to talk about this homicide. I saw here

610
00:27:10.119 --> 00:27:12.119
<v Speaker 2>on YouTube this morning when I was watching the Edminton

611
00:27:12.119 --> 00:27:13.000
<v Speaker 2>Elks ty Cats game.

612
00:27:13.079 --> 00:27:18.319
<v Speaker 1>But Larry Thompson, owner seems excited, right? Is this good?

613
00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:20.000
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't you certainly no.

614
00:27:20.119 --> 00:27:22.200
<v Speaker 2>Victor and I know Victor wasn't the owner, but certainly

615
00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:24.400
<v Speaker 2>no Victor queed kind of taking over the world here.

616
00:27:24.440 --> 00:27:27.039
<v Speaker 2>It seems like a good old boy Edmonton Elk's season

617
00:27:27.039 --> 00:27:29.640
<v Speaker 2>ticket holder. It's got money at my what's your read

618
00:27:29.720 --> 00:27:31.160
<v Speaker 2>of the situation is that kind of Do I have

619
00:27:31.200 --> 00:27:31.759
<v Speaker 2>a good handle?

620
00:27:33.519 --> 00:27:34.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think that.

621
00:27:34.400 --> 00:27:34.640
<v Speaker 1>You know.

622
00:27:34.920 --> 00:27:38.519
<v Speaker 3>My impressions of watching that the opening press conference is

623
00:27:38.559 --> 00:27:41.519
<v Speaker 3>that he's not the best like public speaker or anything

624
00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:44.119
<v Speaker 3>like that. But ultimately, at the end of the day,

625
00:27:44.240 --> 00:27:47.200
<v Speaker 3>who cares, right if if he's going to financially support

626
00:27:47.200 --> 00:27:50.200
<v Speaker 3>the team and you know, be a stable owner that

627
00:27:50.279 --> 00:27:53.440
<v Speaker 3>you know, uh, doesn't do the whole h. David Stern

628
00:27:54.400 --> 00:27:57.200
<v Speaker 3>David Stern with uh, Gary scary?

629
00:27:57.960 --> 00:28:00.079
<v Speaker 1>Oh, Gary with it? Oh you're talking to I.

630
00:28:00.079 --> 00:28:05.039
<v Speaker 3>Started thinking of the NBA commissioner. But uh, but yeah,

631
00:28:05.079 --> 00:28:07.480
<v Speaker 3>as long as he's not, you know, an unstable owner

632
00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:10.559
<v Speaker 3>that you know, uh, provides a distraction of the team

633
00:28:10.599 --> 00:28:13.279
<v Speaker 3>and can financially support this team and give it the

634
00:28:13.599 --> 00:28:16.240
<v Speaker 3>reinvestment that it needs. I think that's the important part.

635
00:28:16.440 --> 00:28:19.319
<v Speaker 3>And I think another part of the conversation I saw

636
00:28:19.480 --> 00:28:23.359
<v Speaker 3>some people bringing up was his his age. But I

637
00:28:23.400 --> 00:28:26.039
<v Speaker 3>think that he's only like sixty five or something like that.

638
00:28:26.200 --> 00:28:29.279
<v Speaker 3>A lot of people thought he older than that. I

639
00:28:29.279 --> 00:28:31.480
<v Speaker 3>think the worry there is that it might most thing

640
00:28:31.599 --> 00:28:35.279
<v Speaker 3>like Sid Spiegel and Gary Stern situation, where there's not

641
00:28:35.359 --> 00:28:39.359
<v Speaker 3>really a succession if something happens there. So I've heard

642
00:28:39.359 --> 00:28:41.960
<v Speaker 3>that the family is very like committed to uh, you know,

643
00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:45.680
<v Speaker 3>potentially you know, taking the team over after I mean

644
00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:49.440
<v Speaker 3>assuming if something that did something terrible did happen with

645
00:28:49.680 --> 00:28:53.559
<v Speaker 3>Larry Thompson. So I think that I'm not too concerned

646
00:28:53.559 --> 00:28:56.440
<v Speaker 3>about it. I think that I'm glad the Elks have

647
00:28:56.839 --> 00:28:59.720
<v Speaker 3>the financial looking now and hopefully things will get better

648
00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:05.279
<v Speaker 3>and in the short term in Edmonton's.

649
00:29:03.599 --> 00:29:04.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you're like, he's six.

650
00:29:05.240 --> 00:29:07.759
<v Speaker 2>It's kind of like Benjamin Button, Like people say I'm twelve.

651
00:29:07.759 --> 00:29:10.039
<v Speaker 2>But I look at the like you no, he does.

652
00:29:10.119 --> 00:29:10.480
<v Speaker 1>He looks.

653
00:29:12.079 --> 00:29:14.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean like, oh my god, I didn't know how

654
00:29:14.960 --> 00:29:16.759
<v Speaker 2>I hadn't. We've been a time I didn't have time

655
00:29:16.759 --> 00:29:18.039
<v Speaker 2>to look up it. I'm trying to figure out, like

656
00:29:18.079 --> 00:29:19.960
<v Speaker 2>what's his net worth and everything, just to kind of

657
00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:22.960
<v Speaker 2>get a handle on it. But uh, yeah, he looks old,

658
00:29:23.799 --> 00:29:29.079
<v Speaker 2>that's a rough sixty five. The whole Like they're using

659
00:29:29.119 --> 00:29:32.440
<v Speaker 2>the double E logo, the rebranding to the ESX.

660
00:29:32.680 --> 00:29:36.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this is I you got it right.

661
00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:38.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean it's like I live through this with the

662
00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:40.200
<v Speaker 2>Commanders all the time, and I mean they got they

663
00:29:40.319 --> 00:29:43.039
<v Speaker 2>ask our people all the time. When you rebranded, we

664
00:29:43.079 --> 00:29:45.240
<v Speaker 2>bring in Josh Harris, we get to do ownership. They're like,

665
00:29:46.119 --> 00:29:47.839
<v Speaker 2>we're just trying to win football games. We don't care

666
00:29:47.839 --> 00:29:50.039
<v Speaker 2>about that. I mean, I'm so over this. It could

667
00:29:50.119 --> 00:29:52.519
<v Speaker 2>you could call him the you know, the circus clowns

668
00:29:52.519 --> 00:29:55.680
<v Speaker 2>for all I care at this point. But thoughts on

669
00:29:55.759 --> 00:29:58.079
<v Speaker 2>that is I just feel like it's you can't revert

670
00:29:58.119 --> 00:29:58.839
<v Speaker 2>back at this point.

671
00:29:58.880 --> 00:29:59.839
<v Speaker 1>I just curious your thoughts.

672
00:30:00.640 --> 00:30:03.079
<v Speaker 3>I think it would be a massive mistake. Frankly, I

673
00:30:03.119 --> 00:30:05.039
<v Speaker 3>think it would be a disaster if they were just

674
00:30:05.160 --> 00:30:07.240
<v Speaker 3>go back to the old name or even change the

675
00:30:07.319 --> 00:30:10.480
<v Speaker 3>name again. I think that Elks is fine. I think

676
00:30:10.519 --> 00:30:13.160
<v Speaker 3>that yes, it might not be the most intimidating or

677
00:30:13.759 --> 00:30:15.920
<v Speaker 3>deal name for a pro sports team in the world,

678
00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:19.480
<v Speaker 3>but ultimately, this is the Edmonton football franchise. Call it

679
00:30:19.519 --> 00:30:22.400
<v Speaker 3>whatever you want. The people that want to call it Eskimos,

680
00:30:22.400 --> 00:30:25.039
<v Speaker 3>they can call it whatever they want. That's still a

681
00:30:25.160 --> 00:30:30.440
<v Speaker 3>football franchise, ce up guys that plays in Edmonton. And ultimately,

682
00:30:30.680 --> 00:30:34.559
<v Speaker 3>people blaming the name change for the poor results and

683
00:30:34.599 --> 00:30:37.519
<v Speaker 3>the decline and attendance, I think it's just frankly ridiculous

684
00:30:37.519 --> 00:30:41.119
<v Speaker 3>because the attendance was declining before, even when they were

685
00:30:41.240 --> 00:30:43.920
<v Speaker 3>the Eskimos, and you know, the poor performance of the

686
00:30:43.920 --> 00:30:46.319
<v Speaker 3>team was already starting to show, not to the degree

687
00:30:46.359 --> 00:30:48.839
<v Speaker 3>it has since COVID. But I think at the end

688
00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:51.440
<v Speaker 3>of the day, you know, going back to the old

689
00:30:51.519 --> 00:30:53.839
<v Speaker 3>name would be a big mistake in my opinion, because

690
00:30:53.839 --> 00:30:56.400
<v Speaker 3>it would really just be kind of a step backwards

691
00:30:56.400 --> 00:30:57.240
<v Speaker 3>I think for the league.

692
00:30:58.119 --> 00:30:59.799
<v Speaker 2>I will say, and because I watch a lot of

693
00:30:59.799 --> 00:31:02.640
<v Speaker 2>this to know on YouTube having watched the BC Lions

694
00:31:02.680 --> 00:31:07.039
<v Speaker 2>game yesterday. Here before I go, we need a new

695
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:11.000
<v Speaker 2>animation like the whole with like the Blue Bombers and

696
00:31:11.079 --> 00:31:12.400
<v Speaker 2>like the Tiger and the like.

697
00:31:12.599 --> 00:31:13.880
<v Speaker 1>We need to revamp all that.

698
00:31:14.000 --> 00:31:15.960
<v Speaker 2>If we can get Larry can donate some money to

699
00:31:16.000 --> 00:31:18.240
<v Speaker 2>the cause or a mar whatever, like I don't care

700
00:31:18.279 --> 00:31:19.880
<v Speaker 2>what you call the ELX, but you got it. That

701
00:31:19.960 --> 00:31:22.599
<v Speaker 2>whole opening animation just needs to be that looks like

702
00:31:22.640 --> 00:31:24.000
<v Speaker 2>it came out from nine to ninety eight.

703
00:31:24.000 --> 00:31:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Like we gotta we gotta figure that out.

704
00:31:26.759 --> 00:31:29.559
<v Speaker 2>Let's get to So you were at this game, so

705
00:31:29.599 --> 00:31:32.759
<v Speaker 2>speaking of Edmonton, and we'll talk to Chris Jones and

706
00:31:32.839 --> 00:31:36.160
<v Speaker 2>kind of all that. This was a bizarre game, right

707
00:31:36.200 --> 00:31:38.440
<v Speaker 2>because I well, first off, you were there, How was

708
00:31:38.480 --> 00:31:40.759
<v Speaker 2>the game from your perspective? Because this this I didn't

709
00:31:40.799 --> 00:31:43.759
<v Speaker 2>realize this was such an assweeping until I really sat

710
00:31:43.799 --> 00:31:44.440
<v Speaker 2>down this morning.

711
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:48.599
<v Speaker 3>Oh, this was an awful football game from a tie

712
00:31:48.640 --> 00:31:51.640
<v Speaker 3>Cats perspective. This game, you know, first of all, I

713
00:31:51.680 --> 00:31:55.319
<v Speaker 3>mean just even beyond the football game itself, just the

714
00:31:55.720 --> 00:32:00.279
<v Speaker 3>first play from scrimmage, Luther takes a very I would

715
00:32:00.279 --> 00:32:02.960
<v Speaker 3>say even a dirty hit from I forget who the

716
00:32:03.000 --> 00:32:07.400
<v Speaker 3>Elks defender was but needed medical attention. It was really

717
00:32:07.480 --> 00:32:10.279
<v Speaker 3>serious situation. You saw that. You know, both teams were

718
00:32:10.319 --> 00:32:13.880
<v Speaker 3>kind of huddled around, uh you know, uh Hakunabanu in

719
00:32:13.880 --> 00:32:16.880
<v Speaker 3>that situation, and uh, you know, everybody was very concerned.

720
00:32:16.960 --> 00:32:19.119
<v Speaker 3>Luckily he's all right, but we didn't know that at

721
00:32:19.119 --> 00:32:20.880
<v Speaker 3>the time. And then there was a bit of a

722
00:32:20.920 --> 00:32:26.519
<v Speaker 3>delay because I didn't know this, but the ambulance cannot

723
00:32:26.599 --> 00:32:30.559
<v Speaker 3>leave the stadium until another ambulance comes, and so there

724
00:32:30.559 --> 00:32:32.200
<v Speaker 3>was a bit of delay in that. I think it

725
00:32:32.240 --> 00:32:34.839
<v Speaker 3>took about twenty minutes for another ambulance to come and

726
00:32:34.839 --> 00:32:36.759
<v Speaker 3>and and show up and be ready to be at

727
00:32:36.799 --> 00:32:39.519
<v Speaker 3>the game. So you know, that was a bizarre start

728
00:32:39.559 --> 00:32:41.960
<v Speaker 3>to the game. Glad kunavon who's all right? And then

729
00:32:42.200 --> 00:32:47.400
<v Speaker 3>once the game gets restarted, Taylor Powell immediately gets hurt concustan.

730
00:32:47.920 --> 00:32:49.880
<v Speaker 3>I think he had to go to the hospital as well,

731
00:32:49.880 --> 00:32:52.920
<v Speaker 3>but he's all right as well. So strangely enough, we

732
00:32:52.920 --> 00:32:56.440
<v Speaker 3>got to see bo Levi Mitchell and it didn't go

733
00:32:56.559 --> 00:32:58.400
<v Speaker 3>so well for the tie Cats in this game. It

734
00:32:58.480 --> 00:33:00.799
<v Speaker 3>really was over by the end of the first quarter,

735
00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:03.519
<v Speaker 3>and that's been the case far too often this year

736
00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:05.759
<v Speaker 3>for the Tai Cats. Think back to the game against

737
00:33:05.759 --> 00:33:07.599
<v Speaker 3>BC where it was I think it was fourteen to

738
00:33:07.599 --> 00:33:09.920
<v Speaker 3>nothing before the ten minute mark of the first quarter.

739
00:33:10.079 --> 00:33:13.640
<v Speaker 3>So you know, the tai Cats defense just been a

740
00:33:13.680 --> 00:33:17.000
<v Speaker 3>struggle all season long for them, Probably the worst defense

741
00:33:17.039 --> 00:33:19.720
<v Speaker 3>I've seen the CFL in a long time, at least

742
00:33:19.720 --> 00:33:22.039
<v Speaker 3>in the last five years. I can't remember a team

743
00:33:22.079 --> 00:33:25.359
<v Speaker 3>that's looked this poor defensively this bat and being out

744
00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:28.640
<v Speaker 3>of position in so many different spots. The defensive lion

745
00:33:28.720 --> 00:33:31.720
<v Speaker 3>can't get any pressure, the secondary is just so out

746
00:33:31.720 --> 00:33:34.039
<v Speaker 3>of position, like I said, can't stop the run either.

747
00:33:34.279 --> 00:33:37.519
<v Speaker 3>James Rankin had a field day against the Tai Cats

748
00:33:37.559 --> 00:33:40.240
<v Speaker 3>defense in this one, so I believe it was thirty

749
00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:43.880
<v Speaker 3>two to three at halftime. So yes, like I said,

750
00:33:43.920 --> 00:33:47.079
<v Speaker 3>it was basically over very early in this game, and

751
00:33:47.720 --> 00:33:50.319
<v Speaker 3>very frustrating as a Tai Cats fan just to see

752
00:33:50.839 --> 00:33:54.119
<v Speaker 3>them show up like this at home against like what

753
00:33:54.279 --> 00:33:55.720
<v Speaker 3>a lot of people thought was the worst team in

754
00:33:55.759 --> 00:33:59.759
<v Speaker 3>the CFL, but quite clearly that is the Ti Cats

755
00:33:59.839 --> 00:34:02.640
<v Speaker 3>right now. I think the ty Cats have earned that crown,

756
00:34:03.039 --> 00:34:06.039
<v Speaker 3>that that much desired crown as the worst team in

757
00:34:06.079 --> 00:34:08.559
<v Speaker 3>the CFL right now, and I don't think it's by

758
00:34:08.599 --> 00:34:10.639
<v Speaker 3>evidence of this game is very close, right now.

759
00:34:11.599 --> 00:34:13.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they say, you know, if you if you're if

760
00:34:13.800 --> 00:34:16.039
<v Speaker 2>you're at the poker table and you're looking around for

761
00:34:16.079 --> 00:34:18.239
<v Speaker 2>the mark and you can't identify who the mark is,

762
00:34:18.360 --> 00:34:20.239
<v Speaker 2>chances are to Yeah, if you're trying to figure out

763
00:34:20.280 --> 00:34:23.599
<v Speaker 2>the worst team in the CFL spoiler ty Cans, it's

764
00:34:23.639 --> 00:34:24.280
<v Speaker 2>probably you here.

765
00:34:24.760 --> 00:34:24.880
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

766
00:34:25.199 --> 00:34:27.719
<v Speaker 2>I will say I'll take Rod Smith and his dad

767
00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:31.639
<v Speaker 2>jokes over like Dustin Nielsen any day watching this games.

768
00:34:31.639 --> 00:34:35.519
<v Speaker 2>He's like Dustin rank and really ranking up in the

769
00:34:35.599 --> 00:34:38.519
<v Speaker 2>standings for the running back, Like I'll appreciate that.

770
00:34:38.480 --> 00:34:41.079
<v Speaker 1>More than Oh my god, that's kind of all.

771
00:34:42.159 --> 00:34:44.440
<v Speaker 2>But this was, Yeah, it was just so weird because,

772
00:34:44.440 --> 00:34:46.719
<v Speaker 2>like we say, you know, you, I kind of had

773
00:34:46.800 --> 00:34:49.239
<v Speaker 2>the processes turned the game on and like, oh yeah, okay,

774
00:34:49.559 --> 00:34:51.920
<v Speaker 2>trade forward's hurt, right, it's Ribs, Okay, we're bring him

775
00:34:51.920 --> 00:34:53.440
<v Speaker 2>a cloud back that makes sense.

776
00:34:53.800 --> 00:34:56.199
<v Speaker 1>And then yeah, okay we benched bo Levi. No one

777
00:34:56.239 --> 00:34:57.320
<v Speaker 1>really knows why we've done that.

778
00:34:57.320 --> 00:34:59.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Taylor Palace playing and then yeah, like you said,

779
00:35:00.159 --> 00:35:02.519
<v Speaker 2>the best thing in the world, like, let's bench a

780
00:35:02.559 --> 00:35:05.320
<v Speaker 2>starting quarterback and then have the backup immediately hurt that

781
00:35:05.360 --> 00:35:07.000
<v Speaker 2>we got to go back to him. That's not going

782
00:35:07.079 --> 00:35:09.159
<v Speaker 2>to be awkward at all. And then you even saw

783
00:35:09.239 --> 00:35:12.639
<v Speaker 2>Harrison Frost here, who he rode the bench for the

784
00:35:12.800 --> 00:35:15.639
<v Speaker 2>Sea Dragons in the XFL two years. I mean, he

785
00:35:15.760 --> 00:35:16.800
<v Speaker 2>was with the Sea Dragons.

786
00:35:16.960 --> 00:35:17.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he.

787
00:35:17.519 --> 00:35:20.599
<v Speaker 2>Saw I don't believe he took a snap behind Dianiucci,

788
00:35:20.719 --> 00:35:23.039
<v Speaker 2>but he was like our second third string quarterback there,

789
00:35:23.079 --> 00:35:25.400
<v Speaker 2>so he even was playing the garbage time. Did they

790
00:35:25.480 --> 00:35:27.280
<v Speaker 2>just give up on bow at that point? Did they

791
00:35:27.280 --> 00:35:28.880
<v Speaker 2>just say, bo, you need to protect yourself.

792
00:35:30.400 --> 00:35:33.400
<v Speaker 3>Well, To be honest, I think I actually had left

793
00:35:33.440 --> 00:35:36.679
<v Speaker 3>by that point in the fourth quarter. I had my buddy.

794
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:38.960
<v Speaker 3>My buddy came out all the way up from Ottawa,

795
00:35:39.000 --> 00:35:40.599
<v Speaker 3>and I was joking with him all week. I'm like,

796
00:35:40.800 --> 00:35:42.519
<v Speaker 3>brought you all this way to see the two worst

797
00:35:42.559 --> 00:35:45.239
<v Speaker 3>teams in the CFL go at it. But you know,

798
00:35:45.320 --> 00:35:47.880
<v Speaker 3>so we ended up being out of there a little early.

799
00:35:47.960 --> 00:35:51.480
<v Speaker 3>It was just really a disgusting performance. That's just really

800
00:35:51.599 --> 00:35:54.039
<v Speaker 3>hard to see. And I usually never leave games early,

801
00:35:54.119 --> 00:35:57.760
<v Speaker 3>but it was just too tough to watch at this point.

802
00:35:57.800 --> 00:36:00.559
<v Speaker 3>It was just the fumbles were one thing that really

803
00:36:00.599 --> 00:36:02.639
<v Speaker 3>stood out in this game. It seemed like the Tiger

804
00:36:02.639 --> 00:36:05.039
<v Speaker 3>has had at least five fumbles in this game, that

805
00:36:06.280 --> 00:36:09.360
<v Speaker 3>we're really just unferors. And I think, uh yeah, Like

806
00:36:09.400 --> 00:36:12.039
<v Speaker 3>I said, I think the turnovers and the penalties. And

807
00:36:12.039 --> 00:36:14.679
<v Speaker 3>I think that's what Scott Milanovitch said as well this

808
00:36:14.719 --> 00:36:17.320
<v Speaker 3>week when or last week when he was talking heading

809
00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:20.400
<v Speaker 3>into this game about what's defined their season to this point.

810
00:36:20.480 --> 00:36:24.119
<v Speaker 3>It's turnovers and penalties. It's been a very sloppy and

811
00:36:24.840 --> 00:36:27.239
<v Speaker 3>undisciplined team. And I think a lot of that obviously

812
00:36:27.280 --> 00:36:29.119
<v Speaker 3>falls back on the coach, but at the end of

813
00:36:29.159 --> 00:36:32.079
<v Speaker 3>the day, I think the players have a huge role

814
00:36:32.119 --> 00:36:33.119
<v Speaker 3>to play in that as well.

815
00:36:34.280 --> 00:36:36.719
<v Speaker 2>There was a game last year where Edmonton it was

816
00:36:36.760 --> 00:36:39.400
<v Speaker 2>early in the season and Edmonton Oilers came into the

817
00:36:39.400 --> 00:36:41.800
<v Speaker 2>crack and I think they were up three zero before

818
00:36:41.840 --> 00:36:44.519
<v Speaker 2>Dorothy had even like gone to the restroom and gotten

819
00:36:44.519 --> 00:36:47.199
<v Speaker 2>the wine then sat down and I, you know, I

820
00:36:48.000 --> 00:36:50.880
<v Speaker 2>always want to leave and and you know, Dorothy or whoever,

821
00:36:50.880 --> 00:36:52.239
<v Speaker 2>I know we paid a lot of money, but I

822
00:36:52.239 --> 00:36:53.800
<v Speaker 2>won't spend any more money there.

823
00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I won't buy any beer, I won't buy any food.

824
00:36:56.000 --> 00:36:56.360
<v Speaker 1>I do it.

825
00:36:56.400 --> 00:36:58.559
<v Speaker 2>I do a sity in hunger protest, so I don't

826
00:36:58.599 --> 00:37:00.719
<v Speaker 2>I don't leave the game, but get any more of

827
00:37:00.800 --> 00:37:02.480
<v Speaker 2>my money that night. You haven't earned any of that.

828
00:37:04.079 --> 00:37:07.440
<v Speaker 2>The big news Chris Jones coming in. It's a defensive

829
00:37:07.480 --> 00:37:10.760
<v Speaker 2>assistant Edmonton bottom out, so the tie Cats don't have.

830
00:37:10.760 --> 00:37:11.400
<v Speaker 1>To pay him.

831
00:37:12.280 --> 00:37:17.920
<v Speaker 3>That seems weird, right, it is it is, And on

832
00:37:17.920 --> 00:37:20.960
<v Speaker 3>one hand, part of me just says it just adds

833
00:37:20.960 --> 00:37:23.960
<v Speaker 3>to the circus and that this isn't gonna make anything better.

834
00:37:24.039 --> 00:37:27.800
<v Speaker 3>But the other part of me says that it literally

835
00:37:27.840 --> 00:37:29.960
<v Speaker 3>can't get any worse with how this defense been playing,

836
00:37:30.039 --> 00:37:32.639
<v Speaker 3>and that Chris Jones, we know he can't be a

837
00:37:32.639 --> 00:37:35.440
<v Speaker 3>head coach anymore. It's quite clear that he's been an

838
00:37:35.480 --> 00:37:38.199
<v Speaker 3>awful head coach the last couple of stops in the CFL,

839
00:37:38.599 --> 00:37:42.119
<v Speaker 3>going back to Saskatchewan and this obviously this previous stint

840
00:37:42.320 --> 00:37:46.559
<v Speaker 3>in Edmonton, but he has been a successful defensive coordinator

841
00:37:46.599 --> 00:37:50.320
<v Speaker 3>in this league, defensive play caller. But funny enough, last

842
00:37:50.320 --> 00:37:54.639
<v Speaker 3>time he was a defensive coordinator defensive play caller before

843
00:37:54.679 --> 00:37:56.760
<v Speaker 3>he was a head coach was in twenty twenty one

844
00:37:56.800 --> 00:37:59.159
<v Speaker 3>with the Argos, and the last time he was on

845
00:37:59.239 --> 00:38:02.119
<v Speaker 3>the field, Dane Evans went sixteen for sixteen in the

846
00:38:02.159 --> 00:38:04.719
<v Speaker 3>second half and led the tie Cats to a great Cup.

847
00:38:04.840 --> 00:38:09.320
<v Speaker 3>So not exactly a good lasting memory of Chris Jones

848
00:38:09.480 --> 00:38:12.880
<v Speaker 3>being a defensive coordinator in recent years. But he does

849
00:38:12.920 --> 00:38:16.360
<v Speaker 3>have a lot of experience. Milanovitch is very familiar with

850
00:38:16.440 --> 00:38:19.920
<v Speaker 3>him from I believe his time in Toronto. So it

851
00:38:19.960 --> 00:38:22.559
<v Speaker 3>should be interesting to see how it works out. But

852
00:38:22.599 --> 00:38:25.000
<v Speaker 3>like I said, I think a lot of it in

853
00:38:24.639 --> 00:38:27.320
<v Speaker 3>my mind just goes to adding to the circus.

854
00:38:28.599 --> 00:38:33.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I love Chris Jones as a person, right,

855
00:38:33.079 --> 00:38:35.360
<v Speaker 2>and and I think that that's always misconstrued.

856
00:38:35.440 --> 00:38:37.400
<v Speaker 1>That's the same thing with like Ray campbl or anything else.

857
00:38:37.480 --> 00:38:40.199
<v Speaker 2>Like you know, you need to be able to separate

858
00:38:40.320 --> 00:38:43.320
<v Speaker 2>kind of what they're doing on the field versus like

859
00:38:43.400 --> 00:38:43.840
<v Speaker 2>the person.

860
00:38:43.880 --> 00:38:45.639
<v Speaker 1>You know, Chris Jones was on what was that two

861
00:38:45.679 --> 00:38:46.280
<v Speaker 1>years ago.

862
00:38:46.280 --> 00:38:48.599
<v Speaker 2>And he was scouting talent down in the US and

863
00:38:49.440 --> 00:38:52.159
<v Speaker 2>just the nicest, most giving guy with his time and

864
00:38:52.199 --> 00:38:55.440
<v Speaker 2>walking around LA on the phone, went like, it's nothing

865
00:38:55.440 --> 00:38:58.800
<v Speaker 2>against all that, but yeah, you come in here, like

866
00:38:58.840 --> 00:39:00.599
<v Speaker 2>you said, I don't know if he if it could

867
00:39:00.599 --> 00:39:02.639
<v Speaker 2>make it any worse. I was proud of my tweet

868
00:39:02.679 --> 00:39:06.360
<v Speaker 2>when far Han said that because Edmonton had bought him out,

869
00:39:06.719 --> 00:39:09.039
<v Speaker 2>he didn't need to seek permission to kind of apply

870
00:39:09.119 --> 00:39:11.519
<v Speaker 2>for the position. And I said, well, as someone that's

871
00:39:11.519 --> 00:39:13.519
<v Speaker 2>watched him coach a professional football team for the last

872
00:39:13.519 --> 00:39:15.599
<v Speaker 2>three years, Like he doesn't have my permission here to

873
00:39:15.639 --> 00:39:16.280
<v Speaker 2>be involved in this.

874
00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:17.559
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to see him anymore.

875
00:39:17.559 --> 00:39:17.679
<v Speaker 2>I do.

876
00:39:17.840 --> 00:39:18.760
<v Speaker 1>I need to have him off.

877
00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:20.760
<v Speaker 2>I think, well, you said it can't be any worse,

878
00:39:20.800 --> 00:39:23.400
<v Speaker 2>but it does feel like it adds to the adding.

879
00:39:23.079 --> 00:39:23.960
<v Speaker 1>To the circus here.

880
00:39:24.000 --> 00:39:26.639
<v Speaker 2>And I don't know, man, the Ti Cats are just

881
00:39:26.800 --> 00:39:31.239
<v Speaker 2>really atrocious, Like you're really bad and Bo isn't playing bad.

882
00:39:31.320 --> 00:39:34.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean, how do you write, you know, the bench

883
00:39:34.400 --> 00:39:35.159
<v Speaker 2>him for Taylor?

884
00:39:35.320 --> 00:39:36.119
<v Speaker 1>Right, Taylor got hurt.

885
00:39:36.119 --> 00:39:38.559
<v Speaker 2>We talked through all that, But like, because we haven't talked,

886
00:39:38.559 --> 00:39:40.639
<v Speaker 2>were you surprised that Bo got the bench and then

887
00:39:40.679 --> 00:39:42.840
<v Speaker 2>he comes back here? And I mean he plays fine.

888
00:39:43.039 --> 00:39:44.519
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know he had the two innion perception.

889
00:39:44.719 --> 00:39:46.800
<v Speaker 2>You know, Bo has never been the problem like he

890
00:39:46.920 --> 00:39:49.400
<v Speaker 2>was last year, at least the injuries surrounding the quarterback

891
00:39:49.400 --> 00:39:50.519
<v Speaker 2>situation were last year.

892
00:39:51.920 --> 00:39:55.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I was shocked when they pulled the twiggers so

893
00:39:55.280 --> 00:39:57.960
<v Speaker 3>quickly in that game against Montreal a couple of weeks

894
00:39:57.960 --> 00:40:01.559
<v Speaker 3>ago to put Awl in. But I do kind of

895
00:40:01.559 --> 00:40:04.920
<v Speaker 3>see Scott Milanovitch's point. I think that what he pointed

896
00:40:04.920 --> 00:40:08.480
<v Speaker 3>to was obviously the turnovers and bow even though he

897
00:40:08.519 --> 00:40:10.639
<v Speaker 3>has thrown a lot of touchdowns this year, though a

898
00:40:10.639 --> 00:40:14.639
<v Speaker 3>lot of them came again that one game against Edmonton. Like,

899
00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:18.239
<v Speaker 3>I feel like Bo has thrown a lot of bad

900
00:40:18.519 --> 00:40:21.119
<v Speaker 3>interceptions this year. He has been prone, and especially the

901
00:40:21.199 --> 00:40:23.239
<v Speaker 3>last few weeks, I think it's really just reached a

902
00:40:23.280 --> 00:40:27.280
<v Speaker 3>boiling point. And when it's not leading to victories despite

903
00:40:27.280 --> 00:40:29.719
<v Speaker 3>how bad the defense is, I think a lot of

904
00:40:29.719 --> 00:40:32.679
<v Speaker 3>that obviously falls back on the quarterback, and uh, you

905
00:40:32.719 --> 00:40:34.760
<v Speaker 3>know the fact that he's an older quarterback and this

906
00:40:34.840 --> 00:40:37.719
<v Speaker 3>team doesn't look like it's going anywhere this year. I

907
00:40:37.760 --> 00:40:39.840
<v Speaker 3>don't know how many more games he's gonna start for

908
00:40:39.880 --> 00:40:42.639
<v Speaker 3>the tie Cats this year. I mean, you know, we'll

909
00:40:42.639 --> 00:40:45.039
<v Speaker 3>have to see what the hell status of Taylor Powell

910
00:40:45.119 --> 00:40:48.280
<v Speaker 3>is and how much he plays down the stretch. But

911
00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:50.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't, like I said, I don't think Bo has

912
00:40:51.000 --> 00:40:53.599
<v Speaker 3>many starts left to tie Cats. Maybe starts the next

913
00:40:53.599 --> 00:40:56.159
<v Speaker 3>couple of weeks. But once you start get to that

914
00:40:56.400 --> 00:40:59.280
<v Speaker 3>you know, two and ten, two and eleven or three

915
00:40:59.320 --> 00:41:02.400
<v Speaker 3>and eleven even or whatever the record is by you know,

916
00:41:02.440 --> 00:41:05.159
<v Speaker 3>mid September, I think that's when you start trying to

917
00:41:05.159 --> 00:41:08.559
<v Speaker 3>get into that evaluating player stage of your season. If

918
00:41:08.559 --> 00:41:10.280
<v Speaker 3>you're a team like the ty Cats, and I think

919
00:41:10.440 --> 00:41:13.079
<v Speaker 3>maybe you start to see guys like Harrison Frost and

920
00:41:13.360 --> 00:41:17.440
<v Speaker 3>maybe even Talliatagavaloa come in and get their chance.

921
00:41:18.360 --> 00:41:20.079
<v Speaker 2>That would be cool, See, that would be something to

922
00:41:20.119 --> 00:41:22.559
<v Speaker 2>get excited about. Yeah, this, you know, And I think

923
00:41:22.599 --> 00:41:25.280
<v Speaker 2>Bo just the team's ass and he's like, I gotta

924
00:41:25.480 --> 00:41:28.599
<v Speaker 2>I gotta try, you know, I gotta make do whatever

925
00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:31.159
<v Speaker 2>I can here and run and throw and get it

926
00:41:31.159 --> 00:41:33.159
<v Speaker 2>in the tight windows and force the ball because you're like,

927
00:41:33.559 --> 00:41:35.840
<v Speaker 2>I can't trust my defense, right, I don't. I don't

928
00:41:35.840 --> 00:41:37.480
<v Speaker 2>know when the heck bringing you back on the field

929
00:41:37.519 --> 00:41:38.760
<v Speaker 2>to get in here, like I just need to push

930
00:41:38.760 --> 00:41:43.000
<v Speaker 2>down the field. The the other question, I guess, well,

931
00:41:43.000 --> 00:41:44.559
<v Speaker 2>I guess I will say too with the whole because

932
00:41:44.599 --> 00:41:46.599
<v Speaker 2>I was watching and of course now I'm we're back

933
00:41:46.639 --> 00:41:49.199
<v Speaker 2>in the preseason here with the NFL and they're talking

934
00:41:49.199 --> 00:41:52.079
<v Speaker 2>about the Jets. You know how Aaron Rodgers isn't playing

935
00:41:52.119 --> 00:41:54.559
<v Speaker 2>in the preseason. He's going to be there at the game,

936
00:41:54.719 --> 00:41:57.119
<v Speaker 2>you know, week one and last year and all that,

937
00:41:57.159 --> 00:41:59.920
<v Speaker 2>and I just said, what did disaster about these quarterbacks?

938
00:42:00.199 --> 00:42:02.320
<v Speaker 2>You know, because I don't expect anythink from Aaron Rodgers

939
00:42:02.320 --> 00:42:04.280
<v Speaker 2>this year. He hasn't played football in the year. He is,

940
00:42:04.320 --> 00:42:06.559
<v Speaker 2>you know, older than I am. And then with the

941
00:42:06.599 --> 00:42:08.639
<v Speaker 2>same with Bo we talked all about this. I showed,

942
00:42:08.719 --> 00:42:11.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, good for him, he got paid and he's

943
00:42:11.000 --> 00:42:12.920
<v Speaker 2>been a team player and he's been involved in all

944
00:42:12.960 --> 00:42:15.039
<v Speaker 2>of that. But like, what a disaster by the tay

945
00:42:15.159 --> 00:42:17.000
<v Speaker 2>Cats to spend the money on him. I mean, looking

946
00:42:17.039 --> 00:42:19.000
<v Speaker 2>back now, I mean I think we were both pretty

947
00:42:19.039 --> 00:42:22.239
<v Speaker 2>down on it when it happened, but you know, hindsight

948
00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:23.639
<v Speaker 2>now it looks even worse.

949
00:42:25.000 --> 00:42:27.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think you could safely add bow to even

950
00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:31.480
<v Speaker 3>though he's played better statistically this year. I think you

951
00:42:31.480 --> 00:42:33.559
<v Speaker 3>can add him to that list of you know, tay

952
00:42:33.639 --> 00:42:37.400
<v Speaker 3>Cats quarterbacks that they brought in, like high profile quarterbacks

953
00:42:37.440 --> 00:42:39.679
<v Speaker 3>that they brought in the last twenty years that just

954
00:42:39.760 --> 00:42:42.719
<v Speaker 3>have not worked out. You go back to Casey Printers.

955
00:42:43.119 --> 00:42:45.360
<v Speaker 3>He was kind of like, you know, an American Nathan

956
00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:49.159
<v Speaker 3>rourkean away because he was a CFL mop He was

957
00:42:49.239 --> 00:42:52.840
<v Speaker 3>an electric player and then went down played with Kansas City,

958
00:42:52.840 --> 00:42:55.280
<v Speaker 3>I believe in the NFL, then came back and the

959
00:42:55.280 --> 00:42:58.159
<v Speaker 3>tay Cats gave him a massive contract that I think

960
00:42:58.199 --> 00:43:01.039
<v Speaker 3>he played two years with the tai Cats. They were miserable,

961
00:43:01.280 --> 00:43:04.360
<v Speaker 3>didn't live up to it at all. Jason Moss also

962
00:43:04.440 --> 00:43:06.960
<v Speaker 3>flopped as a member of the tai Cats because he

963
00:43:07.079 --> 00:43:09.559
<v Speaker 3>was a guy that saw a lot of action with

964
00:43:09.880 --> 00:43:13.320
<v Speaker 3>Ricky Ray there getting injured sometimes in Edmonton, and I

965
00:43:13.400 --> 00:43:16.360
<v Speaker 3>believe Ricky Ray also had some time in the NFL,

966
00:43:16.440 --> 00:43:18.400
<v Speaker 3>so Moss got a lot of playing time there. But

967
00:43:18.679 --> 00:43:21.320
<v Speaker 3>after his time in Edmonton, he ends up in Hamilton

968
00:43:21.400 --> 00:43:23.880
<v Speaker 3>for a year and that was an abject disaster. So,

969
00:43:24.440 --> 00:43:26.360
<v Speaker 3>I mean, you know, the Tai Kits just have a

970
00:43:26.480 --> 00:43:31.159
<v Speaker 3>history of this. They just fortunately with some franchises. I

971
00:43:31.199 --> 00:43:34.599
<v Speaker 3>would compare them to the Chicago Bears because the Chicago Bears,

972
00:43:35.760 --> 00:43:38.000
<v Speaker 3>hopefully with Caleb Williams it will work out for them,

973
00:43:38.079 --> 00:43:42.519
<v Speaker 3>but historically they don't have a very good history with quarterbacks. Right.

974
00:43:43.360 --> 00:43:45.800
<v Speaker 3>You look at the or you think of the greatest

975
00:43:45.800 --> 00:43:48.079
<v Speaker 3>players in the history of the Chicago Bears, and much

976
00:43:48.159 --> 00:43:51.440
<v Speaker 3>like the tay Cats, most of those players are defensive players.

977
00:43:51.719 --> 00:43:54.119
<v Speaker 3>I think most of those legendary players you think of,

978
00:43:54.320 --> 00:43:58.559
<v Speaker 3>Angelo Mosca, Rover Covington, I think those are the some

979
00:43:58.599 --> 00:44:00.400
<v Speaker 3>of the biggest names you think of you think of

980
00:44:00.400 --> 00:44:02.760
<v Speaker 3>the ty Cats all time, but you don't really think

981
00:44:02.800 --> 00:44:07.400
<v Speaker 3>of those quarterbacks. It just hasn't come easy for this

982
00:44:07.480 --> 00:44:10.159
<v Speaker 3>franchise and they just haven't been able to really develop

983
00:44:10.239 --> 00:44:12.679
<v Speaker 3>many from within, and I think that kind of made

984
00:44:12.679 --> 00:44:13.480
<v Speaker 3>a problem for them.

985
00:44:15.280 --> 00:44:17.760
<v Speaker 2>The other thing here just talking and we'll touch on

986
00:44:17.800 --> 00:44:19.320
<v Speaker 2>the other two games before we get out of here.

987
00:44:19.320 --> 00:44:25.639
<v Speaker 2>But you know, McLeod, the McLeod stuff. Are we back

988
00:44:25.679 --> 00:44:29.039
<v Speaker 2>to quarterback controversy here? Does trey Ford come back, you know,

989
00:44:29.039 --> 00:44:31.239
<v Speaker 2>when he's the ribs and all that, because you know,

990
00:44:31.280 --> 00:44:33.280
<v Speaker 2>you almost want McLeod to come in and just kind

991
00:44:33.280 --> 00:44:33.840
<v Speaker 2>of not.

992
00:44:33.760 --> 00:44:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Do great either.

993
00:44:35.239 --> 00:44:37.159
<v Speaker 2>I feel like, you know, we're always trying to kind

994
00:44:37.159 --> 00:44:38.400
<v Speaker 2>of defend the trey Ford thing here.

995
00:44:38.400 --> 00:44:40.079
<v Speaker 1>What do you maybe that? And the Alex what do

996
00:44:40.159 --> 00:44:40.519
<v Speaker 1>they do?

997
00:44:41.920 --> 00:44:44.119
<v Speaker 3>I think tray Ford proved that he is the starting

998
00:44:44.199 --> 00:44:47.480
<v Speaker 3>quarterback of this team. I think he really did really

999
00:44:47.480 --> 00:44:49.199
<v Speaker 3>save their season. If you look at it, they're now

1000
00:44:49.239 --> 00:44:51.440
<v Speaker 3>a three and seven football team. They're right in the

1001
00:44:51.480 --> 00:44:54.159
<v Speaker 3>thick of things. If they can, you know, win these

1002
00:44:54.199 --> 00:44:56.679
<v Speaker 3>games against Calgary and the Labor Day game. When the

1003
00:44:56.760 --> 00:44:59.800
<v Speaker 3>Labor Day rematch, it's a whole new season for the Elks.

1004
00:44:59.800 --> 00:45:02.320
<v Speaker 3>And I think, uh, you know, when pray Ford gets back,

1005
00:45:02.360 --> 00:45:04.599
<v Speaker 3>he will be given the reins to do so. But

1006
00:45:05.159 --> 00:45:06.800
<v Speaker 3>it was good to see the Cloud play well in

1007
00:45:06.840 --> 00:45:10.079
<v Speaker 3>this game, even though it was against my team. I

1008
00:45:10.079 --> 00:45:16.920
<v Speaker 3>think he has shown played well in the fourth quarter

1009
00:45:16.920 --> 00:45:18.719
<v Speaker 3>of games a lot of the time. This year. You

1010
00:45:18.760 --> 00:45:20.840
<v Speaker 3>look at their first four weeks, I think it was

1011
00:45:21.000 --> 00:45:23.760
<v Speaker 3>all very close losses and they just did not play

1012
00:45:23.760 --> 00:45:25.880
<v Speaker 3>well down the stretch. He had, you know, a bad

1013
00:45:25.960 --> 00:45:30.159
<v Speaker 3>sack or a bad turnover at inopportune time. So, you know,

1014
00:45:30.199 --> 00:45:32.760
<v Speaker 3>I don't think McCloud has played terrible this year on

1015
00:45:32.800 --> 00:45:35.239
<v Speaker 3>the whole, but it was really good to see him

1016
00:45:35.239 --> 00:45:37.440
<v Speaker 3>play a very complete ball game in this game.

1017
00:45:38.119 --> 00:45:39.920
<v Speaker 2>All right, anything else from that one or do you

1018
00:45:39.920 --> 00:45:41.920
<v Speaker 2>want to come put that in the back of the

1019
00:45:42.199 --> 00:45:42.800
<v Speaker 2>arview mirror.

1020
00:45:45.000 --> 00:45:47.199
<v Speaker 3>Uh no, I think I think that's pretty much it

1021
00:45:47.239 --> 00:45:47.840
<v Speaker 3>from that one.

1022
00:45:48.280 --> 00:45:50.440
<v Speaker 1>All right. So we saw this this.

1023
00:45:50.679 --> 00:45:54.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, even last year, maybe you wouldn't think early

1024
00:45:54.079 --> 00:45:55.639
<v Speaker 2>in the season that this would have been but you know,

1025
00:45:55.679 --> 00:45:59.960
<v Speaker 2>this is two heavy hitters here, right, Saskatchewan host in Montreal.

1026
00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:03.400
<v Speaker 2>All here Davis Alexander playing for Cody. We had the

1027
00:46:03.400 --> 00:46:06.039
<v Speaker 2>whole command center thing here, the stepping out of the bounds.

1028
00:46:06.320 --> 00:46:09.760
<v Speaker 2>I missed the whole right in the fumble, and it

1029
00:46:09.920 --> 00:46:11.760
<v Speaker 2>wasn't the fumble and kind of all I missed, you know,

1030
00:46:11.920 --> 00:46:12.840
<v Speaker 2>it was that two weeks ago.

1031
00:46:12.880 --> 00:46:15.039
<v Speaker 1>I kind of missed that whole thing and all that.

1032
00:46:15.559 --> 00:46:20.239
<v Speaker 2>But now this, uh, first off thoughts on the command center,

1033
00:46:20.280 --> 00:46:23.119
<v Speaker 2>because that has really kind of been you know, what

1034
00:46:23.159 --> 00:46:25.320
<v Speaker 2>was it last year was the stats on the CFO

1035
00:46:25.320 --> 00:46:26.159
<v Speaker 2>page and kind of all that.

1036
00:46:26.199 --> 00:46:28.679
<v Speaker 1>This year, it seems like that's one of the prevailing storylines.

1037
00:46:29.000 --> 00:46:33.239
<v Speaker 2>H Davis Alexander was out of bounds, right, yeah, yeah,

1038
00:46:33.239 --> 00:46:34.000
<v Speaker 2>And for.

1039
00:46:33.920 --> 00:46:37.280
<v Speaker 3>Some reason they weren't showing that that second frame or

1040
00:46:37.320 --> 00:46:40.239
<v Speaker 3>that next frame of that play on the replay, but

1041
00:46:40.639 --> 00:46:43.159
<v Speaker 3>the command center definitely should have had access to that.

1042
00:46:43.280 --> 00:46:47.280
<v Speaker 3>I don't understand how that was ruled, you know, a

1043
00:46:47.320 --> 00:46:49.519
<v Speaker 3>touchdown still, but at the end of the day, I

1044
00:46:49.519 --> 00:46:52.159
<v Speaker 3>don't feel too bad for Saskatchwan, just given the fact

1045
00:46:52.159 --> 00:46:55.559
<v Speaker 3>that they had many opportunities to win this game and

1046
00:46:55.679 --> 00:46:57.679
<v Speaker 3>the fact that they left many points on the board

1047
00:46:57.719 --> 00:46:59.960
<v Speaker 3>just settling for field goals and then their kicker miss

1048
00:47:00.119 --> 00:47:02.159
<v Speaker 3>several I think it was Brett Law. There was three

1049
00:47:02.159 --> 00:47:04.320
<v Speaker 3>of seven and that's really the game right there. So

1050
00:47:04.679 --> 00:47:07.800
<v Speaker 3>don't feel too bad about them, But in terms of

1051
00:47:07.800 --> 00:47:10.679
<v Speaker 3>the command center. I think that, you know, a couple

1052
00:47:10.719 --> 00:47:13.599
<v Speaker 3>of weeks ago, I think they got the calls right

1053
00:47:13.679 --> 00:47:16.440
<v Speaker 3>in that Saskatchewan and Ottawa game that ended up in

1054
00:47:16.480 --> 00:47:19.679
<v Speaker 3>a tie. It was very close, and it was by

1055
00:47:19.719 --> 00:47:21.599
<v Speaker 3>the letter of the law. I don't think that should

1056
00:47:21.639 --> 00:47:24.519
<v Speaker 3>be a penalty. If you cut a defender and they

1057
00:47:24.639 --> 00:47:27.000
<v Speaker 3>roll into the quarterback's legs, I do not think that

1058
00:47:27.039 --> 00:47:30.519
<v Speaker 3>should be dropping the passer because obviously the defender can't

1059
00:47:30.559 --> 00:47:32.719
<v Speaker 3>really control where they're going when they get cut like that.

1060
00:47:33.199 --> 00:47:36.039
<v Speaker 3>But unfortunately that is the rule. So I think they

1061
00:47:36.079 --> 00:47:38.880
<v Speaker 3>got the call right there, and they think they got

1062
00:47:38.920 --> 00:47:41.880
<v Speaker 3>the past interference call right, the one that would have

1063
00:47:41.880 --> 00:47:44.719
<v Speaker 3>won Ottawa the game. It was it was very close,

1064
00:47:44.800 --> 00:47:47.599
<v Speaker 3>like I said, you know, but he was there had

1065
00:47:47.800 --> 00:47:50.440
<v Speaker 3>second early, so I think they got that right. But

1066
00:47:50.599 --> 00:47:52.960
<v Speaker 3>my problem with the command center is that, as someone

1067
00:47:52.960 --> 00:47:56.280
<v Speaker 3>that watches the CFL all the time, I still can't

1068
00:47:56.320 --> 00:48:00.480
<v Speaker 3>tell you exactly when the center can step into, you know,

1069
00:48:00.960 --> 00:48:05.280
<v Speaker 3>change plays, Like what authority do they have, Like Like

1070
00:48:05.320 --> 00:48:08.559
<v Speaker 3>I'm always like shocked when they when they step into

1071
00:48:08.679 --> 00:48:10.320
<v Speaker 3>make a ruling on a play. I'm like, I didn't

1072
00:48:10.360 --> 00:48:13.079
<v Speaker 3>know they could change that. So, as someone that watched

1073
00:48:13.119 --> 00:48:15.599
<v Speaker 3>the league so much. I don't even understand that, so

1074
00:48:15.920 --> 00:48:18.320
<v Speaker 3>I can imagine it'd be very confusing to fans that

1075
00:48:18.800 --> 00:48:21.960
<v Speaker 3>are watching the games, you know, on a relatively less

1076
00:48:22.159 --> 00:48:23.320
<v Speaker 3>less basis.

1077
00:48:24.360 --> 00:48:26.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, And it's kind of the thing I can Major

1078
00:48:26.199 --> 00:48:28.880
<v Speaker 2>League Baseball, where like some plays can be like some

1079
00:48:28.920 --> 00:48:31.199
<v Speaker 2>things can be reviewed and some things can. You never

1080
00:48:31.760 --> 00:48:33.519
<v Speaker 2>why why why can't we you know, why can't we

1081
00:48:33.599 --> 00:48:34.000
<v Speaker 2>review that?

1082
00:48:34.039 --> 00:48:34.320
<v Speaker 1>Whatever?

1083
00:48:34.880 --> 00:48:38.400
<v Speaker 2>You'll you'll know Tim kaeper a famous Outlets fan, but

1084
00:48:38.480 --> 00:48:40.719
<v Speaker 2>I was he wasn't out of bounce, so don't worry

1085
00:48:40.719 --> 00:48:44.360
<v Speaker 2>of course him the Outlets fan. He wasn't at the bounce,

1086
00:48:45.159 --> 00:48:48.239
<v Speaker 2>but uh, shout out here, I see this effort in

1087
00:48:48.280 --> 00:48:51.400
<v Speaker 2>the show James Letcher with the missfield goal TD return

1088
00:48:51.559 --> 00:48:53.519
<v Speaker 2>that was great and that was an epic shot. And

1089
00:48:53.519 --> 00:48:56.480
<v Speaker 2>then following that really and you just felt like you

1090
00:48:56.480 --> 00:48:58.639
<v Speaker 2>were living in the moment with all that, right, really

1091
00:48:58.679 --> 00:49:00.880
<v Speaker 2>feel like, okay, I'm you know, I got my Apple

1092
00:49:01.000 --> 00:49:02.800
<v Speaker 2>Vision pro like that's the kind of stuff like you

1093
00:49:02.840 --> 00:49:04.880
<v Speaker 2>want to watch on that, Like I literally feel like

1094
00:49:04.920 --> 00:49:08.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm on the field kind of flying over that. The Yeah,

1095
00:49:08.960 --> 00:49:12.559
<v Speaker 2>I forgot about the command center with the couple of

1096
00:49:12.639 --> 00:49:14.760
<v Speaker 2>the overtime game of kind of all of that stuff.

1097
00:49:16.079 --> 00:49:18.960
<v Speaker 2>In terms of the game itself, I had something else,

1098
00:49:19.000 --> 00:49:20.880
<v Speaker 2>but I'm kind of forgetting I was going to say here.

1099
00:49:21.159 --> 00:49:22.239
<v Speaker 1>This was a close one.

1100
00:49:22.519 --> 00:49:26.880
<v Speaker 2>Uh, Trevor Harris, everything else, Davis holding the four enough

1101
00:49:27.199 --> 00:49:32.480
<v Speaker 2>for Cody Bean out. Alolette's really just seemed like untouchable

1102
00:49:32.480 --> 00:49:33.039
<v Speaker 2>at this point.

1103
00:49:33.920 --> 00:49:36.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they are a very very very well rounded team,

1104
00:49:36.760 --> 00:49:38.440
<v Speaker 3>and it feels like it feels like they don't have

1105
00:49:38.440 --> 00:49:41.679
<v Speaker 3>a weakness. They got good coaching and they have good

1106
00:49:41.760 --> 00:49:45.039
<v Speaker 3>quarterback depth. As it's been proven here. You know, they

1107
00:49:45.039 --> 00:49:47.119
<v Speaker 3>can run the ball. They can even though they didn't

1108
00:49:47.199 --> 00:49:48.760
<v Speaker 3>run the ball quite well in this game, they could

1109
00:49:48.800 --> 00:49:51.119
<v Speaker 3>still win even when they can't run the ball by

1110
00:49:51.400 --> 00:49:53.920
<v Speaker 3>you know, throwing to their various receivers. And they just

1111
00:49:53.960 --> 00:49:57.320
<v Speaker 3>added Austin mack back today. That's another big piece of

1112
00:49:57.360 --> 00:50:00.320
<v Speaker 3>news as well that we forgot to mention. So they've

1113
00:50:00.360 --> 00:50:04.519
<v Speaker 3>just been tremendously impressive this year. It's really been, you know,

1114
00:50:04.679 --> 00:50:08.480
<v Speaker 3>really impressive to see. I think that defensively, they're also

1115
00:50:08.679 --> 00:50:11.239
<v Speaker 3>just extremely talented. We really saw that down the stretch

1116
00:50:11.320 --> 00:50:13.239
<v Speaker 3>this year. I didn't know if that was going to

1117
00:50:13.280 --> 00:50:16.199
<v Speaker 3>be a sustainable aspect of this team this year, just

1118
00:50:16.239 --> 00:50:20.159
<v Speaker 3>given the fact that you know, usually teams that go

1119
00:50:20.199 --> 00:50:22.440
<v Speaker 3>on a defensive heat or they you know, they don't

1120
00:50:22.480 --> 00:50:25.760
<v Speaker 3>tend to carry that over as much into the next

1121
00:50:25.840 --> 00:50:28.760
<v Speaker 3>seasons as much as like a great offense would. But

1122
00:50:29.239 --> 00:50:31.519
<v Speaker 3>they have definitely proven me wrong in that regard, and

1123
00:50:31.719 --> 00:50:33.760
<v Speaker 3>the offense has looked even better than they have but

1124
00:50:33.840 --> 00:50:37.159
<v Speaker 3>honestly much better than they did last year. So just

1125
00:50:37.360 --> 00:50:40.639
<v Speaker 3>tremendously impressive. And I really like Davis Alexander. I mean,

1126
00:50:40.800 --> 00:50:43.679
<v Speaker 3>he hasn't been perfect in these starts that he's had,

1127
00:50:43.719 --> 00:50:46.800
<v Speaker 3>but you could tell when the games have gotten in doubt,

1128
00:50:47.079 --> 00:50:51.519
<v Speaker 3>he has made the place necessary when he has all

1129
00:50:51.559 --> 00:50:54.760
<v Speaker 3>the tools. Really like his mobility. He has good size,

1130
00:50:54.760 --> 00:50:56.840
<v Speaker 3>and he just has that you know kind of it

1131
00:50:57.000 --> 00:50:59.039
<v Speaker 3>factory's willing to put his body on the line and

1132
00:50:59.079 --> 00:51:02.159
<v Speaker 3>make play. And you know, I've just been really impressed

1133
00:51:02.199 --> 00:51:04.199
<v Speaker 3>with him. And I think in a couple of years

1134
00:51:04.280 --> 00:51:06.599
<v Speaker 3>or as soon as next year, who knows, he could

1135
00:51:06.679 --> 00:51:08.559
<v Speaker 3>be a real player in this league and could pete

1136
00:51:08.599 --> 00:51:09.800
<v Speaker 3>for a starting job somewhere.

1137
00:51:10.599 --> 00:51:12.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he had a couple of hits. He was running, like, man,

1138
00:51:12.800 --> 00:51:14.920
<v Speaker 2>you really need to like learn how to get down here.

1139
00:51:14.920 --> 00:51:16.400
<v Speaker 2>I mean it's good, but you do get that you

1140
00:51:16.440 --> 00:51:19.480
<v Speaker 2>get these young quarterbacks coming like I'm gonna run. You

1141
00:51:19.519 --> 00:51:22.559
<v Speaker 2>know again, you saw that, you know, Nathan holding the ball.

1142
00:51:22.599 --> 00:51:24.440
<v Speaker 2>We don't need to get on the Nathan thing again,

1143
00:51:24.480 --> 00:51:27.360
<v Speaker 2>but you know, like I don't know, you need to

1144
00:51:27.320 --> 00:51:30.079
<v Speaker 2>do a little bit more with that Saskatchewan here, you said,

1145
00:51:30.119 --> 00:51:31.920
<v Speaker 2>they drop what's Saskatchewan now?

1146
00:51:31.960 --> 00:51:34.760
<v Speaker 1>Five and four? Not quite as unstoppable as we thought.

1147
00:51:34.800 --> 00:51:36.280
<v Speaker 3>They got the and one?

1148
00:51:36.920 --> 00:51:39.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so how do you feel about that? Yeah? The

1149
00:51:39.599 --> 00:51:41.880
<v Speaker 1>command center tie everything. How do you feel about this?

1150
00:51:42.199 --> 00:51:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Top in the West by what one point?

1151
00:51:45.280 --> 00:51:48.119
<v Speaker 3>Yep? You know, it's like I said, it's anybody's ball

1152
00:51:48.280 --> 00:51:50.320
<v Speaker 3>game now in the West. Just given the fact that

1153
00:51:50.679 --> 00:51:53.159
<v Speaker 3>what's transpired over the last couple of weeks, b C

1154
00:51:53.280 --> 00:51:56.760
<v Speaker 3>and Saskatchewan wrote really falling back to the pack. Saskatchewan,

1155
00:51:56.840 --> 00:51:59.360
<v Speaker 3>I think it was kind of expected, just giving the

1156
00:51:59.400 --> 00:52:01.960
<v Speaker 3>Trevor Harry injury. They did get a couple of wins

1157
00:52:01.960 --> 00:52:04.519
<v Speaker 3>in there, but you know, enough to stay on top

1158
00:52:04.559 --> 00:52:07.320
<v Speaker 3>of the West. But you know, really they needed him

1159
00:52:07.360 --> 00:52:09.760
<v Speaker 3>back and I think that's really important. And I thought

1160
00:52:09.760 --> 00:52:12.159
<v Speaker 3>he looked really good in this game. They just didn't

1161
00:52:12.199 --> 00:52:14.400
<v Speaker 3>really put the ball at the end zone as much

1162
00:52:14.440 --> 00:52:16.840
<v Speaker 3>as they needed to. And like I said, I think

1163
00:52:16.840 --> 00:52:20.000
<v Speaker 3>that really cost him the game because their kicker, just honestly,

1164
00:52:20.000 --> 00:52:22.760
<v Speaker 3>and Brett Lauler has usually been a reliable kicker, but

1165
00:52:23.159 --> 00:52:25.599
<v Speaker 3>he just he couldn't hit a broad side of a

1166
00:52:25.639 --> 00:52:29.400
<v Speaker 3>barn in this game. Really, So I think, you know,

1167
00:52:29.480 --> 00:52:32.400
<v Speaker 3>going forward, Saskatchwan should be a pretty good team. They've

1168
00:52:32.400 --> 00:52:35.119
<v Speaker 3>got a big test coming up on Thursday. I believe

1169
00:52:35.119 --> 00:52:38.880
<v Speaker 3>it's on the road in Toronto against Chad Kelly and

1170
00:52:38.920 --> 00:52:41.519
<v Speaker 3>the Argos, So it should be very interesting to see

1171
00:52:41.599 --> 00:52:44.000
<v Speaker 3>how they respond to that and if they can, you know,

1172
00:52:44.039 --> 00:52:46.599
<v Speaker 3>get enough wins here to stay on top and be

1173
00:52:46.679 --> 00:52:49.079
<v Speaker 3>in possession for home playoff game down the stretch. But

1174
00:52:49.480 --> 00:52:52.079
<v Speaker 3>I think, you know, I really like what I've seen

1175
00:52:52.079 --> 00:52:55.400
<v Speaker 3>from them in general. I think they've been competitive almost

1176
00:52:55.400 --> 00:52:58.079
<v Speaker 3>every week. Yes, they should have probably won that game

1177
00:52:58.320 --> 00:53:01.360
<v Speaker 3>against Saskatchwe but against the Outawa a few weeks ago,

1178
00:53:01.440 --> 00:53:04.800
<v Speaker 3>But at the end of the day, I think they

1179
00:53:04.840 --> 00:53:07.159
<v Speaker 3>just didn't do enough to really deserve to win that game.

1180
00:53:07.239 --> 00:53:10.280
<v Speaker 3>Because one thing that's really overshadowed by the tie in

1181
00:53:10.320 --> 00:53:12.280
<v Speaker 3>that one, going back to a couple of weeks ago,

1182
00:53:12.719 --> 00:53:14.920
<v Speaker 3>is the fact that it was like a three nothing

1183
00:53:15.000 --> 00:53:17.519
<v Speaker 3>game at the half, and it was a really really

1184
00:53:17.599 --> 00:53:19.880
<v Speaker 3>ugly game up until the last I don't know, seven

1185
00:53:20.000 --> 00:53:22.679
<v Speaker 3>of the fourth quarter, then both offenses kind of woke up.

1186
00:53:22.719 --> 00:53:25.960
<v Speaker 3>So I think being Trevor rs being back is just

1187
00:53:26.000 --> 00:53:28.440
<v Speaker 3>so important for this team, and it's just a whole

1188
00:53:28.440 --> 00:53:31.840
<v Speaker 3>different the way I view that team is just completely

1189
00:53:31.840 --> 00:53:33.119
<v Speaker 3>different with him at the helm.

1190
00:53:34.400 --> 00:53:36.199
<v Speaker 1>And then, yeah, like you said, I think that was

1191
00:53:36.199 --> 00:53:37.199
<v Speaker 1>the other thing I was going to say.

1192
00:53:37.199 --> 00:53:38.760
<v Speaker 2>You know, you can talk about the review and the

1193
00:53:38.760 --> 00:53:41.039
<v Speaker 2>command staring all you want, but you know, Brett Louthor

1194
00:53:41.119 --> 00:53:42.760
<v Speaker 2>makes his field goals.

1195
00:53:42.800 --> 00:53:45.920
<v Speaker 1>This is you know, it's a totally different thing.

1196
00:53:47.159 --> 00:53:50.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, any reasoning for that, I mean, what were they

1197
00:53:50.800 --> 00:53:53.400
<v Speaker 2>They were in Saskatchewan, right, Like, certainly he kind of

1198
00:53:53.440 --> 00:53:55.559
<v Speaker 2>knows the stadium and wing conditions all that, So I

1199
00:53:55.760 --> 00:53:58.400
<v Speaker 2>just seemed really kind of, like you said, uncharacteristic performance

1200
00:53:58.440 --> 00:54:00.920
<v Speaker 2>from him.

1201
00:54:01.320 --> 00:54:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was.

1202
00:54:02.719 --> 00:54:04.760
<v Speaker 3>I don't really know how to explain it. I think that,

1203
00:54:04.960 --> 00:54:07.679
<v Speaker 3>like I said, he's been a very reliable kicker throughout

1204
00:54:07.679 --> 00:54:11.559
<v Speaker 3>his CFL career, but this will certainly kill his season average.

1205
00:54:11.599 --> 00:54:14.039
<v Speaker 3>I think he's right now at the bottom after the

1206
00:54:14.239 --> 00:54:17.159
<v Speaker 3>last week's games in terms of field goal percentage among

1207
00:54:17.360 --> 00:54:19.880
<v Speaker 3>the active kickers in the league. So We'll see how

1208
00:54:19.880 --> 00:54:23.280
<v Speaker 3>he responds to this. But just because it's one game,

1209
00:54:23.320 --> 00:54:25.079
<v Speaker 3>I'm not overly concerned as yet.

1210
00:54:26.039 --> 00:54:29.920
<v Speaker 2>All right, last thing here, Mozzoli comes back. Hasn't played

1211
00:54:29.920 --> 00:54:32.119
<v Speaker 2>football in the in the year, right, we lived through

1212
00:54:32.119 --> 00:54:32.920
<v Speaker 2>all that with the you.

1213
00:54:32.920 --> 00:54:34.559
<v Speaker 1>Know, the Garrett Marino kind of everything.

1214
00:54:34.639 --> 00:54:38.280
<v Speaker 2>Right last year, they you know, they win again, right

1215
00:54:38.280 --> 00:54:40.480
<v Speaker 2>with the Lewis Ward kickoff a right you know, walk

1216
00:54:40.519 --> 00:54:42.599
<v Speaker 2>off field goal and all of that. Mazzoli I saw

1217
00:54:42.679 --> 00:54:45.840
<v Speaker 2>his interview afterwards and crying and all that. Great to

1218
00:54:45.840 --> 00:54:48.079
<v Speaker 2>see him come back. Great to see him, you know, huge.

1219
00:54:48.320 --> 00:54:50.239
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he hadn't come back from injury twice. All

1220
00:54:50.280 --> 00:54:53.039
<v Speaker 2>this thoughts on that because I mean this was buried

1221
00:54:53.119 --> 00:54:56.119
<v Speaker 2>here so many days ago here earlier last week.

1222
00:54:56.199 --> 00:54:57.480
<v Speaker 1>But pretty cool story.

1223
00:54:58.880 --> 00:55:01.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and it's surprising he ended up being the game

1224
00:55:01.159 --> 00:55:03.800
<v Speaker 3>of the week. It ended up being a very entertaining

1225
00:55:03.800 --> 00:55:05.960
<v Speaker 3>game that went right down to the wire. I think

1226
00:55:06.239 --> 00:55:09.039
<v Speaker 3>Mizzoli looked very healthy. He looked like a guy that

1227
00:55:09.519 --> 00:55:11.679
<v Speaker 3>was just having fun out there. I think he was

1228
00:55:12.159 --> 00:55:14.320
<v Speaker 3>you know, had a couple of plays where he scrambled around.

1229
00:55:14.360 --> 00:55:16.880
<v Speaker 3>He had that one touchdown where they're inside the ten

1230
00:55:16.960 --> 00:55:19.360
<v Speaker 3>yard line where he really had to improvise and do

1231
00:55:19.400 --> 00:55:21.880
<v Speaker 3>a little shovel pass that ended up going to Deadman

1232
00:55:21.960 --> 00:55:24.519
<v Speaker 3>for the touchdowns. So it was really good to see

1233
00:55:24.599 --> 00:55:27.800
<v Speaker 3>him out there having fun again and doing alongside Braialen Addison,

1234
00:55:27.800 --> 00:55:31.239
<v Speaker 3>who's had his own injury troubles as well. I'm had

1235
00:55:31.280 --> 00:55:33.960
<v Speaker 3>a big role in this game. So for this game

1236
00:55:34.000 --> 00:55:35.760
<v Speaker 3>to end the way it did, I think it was

1237
00:55:35.880 --> 00:55:39.039
<v Speaker 3>just a really exciting game. I think that, you know,

1238
00:55:39.159 --> 00:55:42.599
<v Speaker 3>Calgary once again ends up on the wrong side of

1239
00:55:42.639 --> 00:55:45.480
<v Speaker 3>a very close game. They've been in almost every game

1240
00:55:45.519 --> 00:55:48.239
<v Speaker 3>this year, but Outawas has kind of been the opposite

1241
00:55:48.239 --> 00:55:50.119
<v Speaker 3>of that, where they've been able to you know, win

1242
00:55:50.159 --> 00:55:53.239
<v Speaker 3>out the squeak out these close games. So I think that,

1243
00:55:53.760 --> 00:55:55.599
<v Speaker 3>you know, it's been really impressive to see the Red

1244
00:55:55.599 --> 00:55:58.400
<v Speaker 3>Blacks have a resurgence this year, all of a sudden

1245
00:55:58.519 --> 00:56:01.079
<v Speaker 3>up the six wins, only two losses on the season,

1246
00:56:01.079 --> 00:56:04.840
<v Speaker 3>and one of those against Montfreal. So I think, you know,

1247
00:56:04.880 --> 00:56:07.199
<v Speaker 3>there's a team that can make some noise down the

1248
00:56:07.199 --> 00:56:09.760
<v Speaker 3>stretch here now that they you know, they have the

1249
00:56:09.840 --> 00:56:13.280
<v Speaker 3>confidence and they know that they they only need a

1250
00:56:13.320 --> 00:56:15.880
<v Speaker 3>few more wins really to guarantee themselves a playoff spot.

1251
00:56:17.119 --> 00:56:18.679
<v Speaker 2>It's interesting you say you thought it was the game

1252
00:56:18.719 --> 00:56:21.800
<v Speaker 2>of the week. I thought all the games were really exciting.

1253
00:56:21.920 --> 00:56:24.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean even the game last night with the Winnipeg

1254
00:56:24.119 --> 00:56:26.079
<v Speaker 2>and BC play like, I mean that at least was

1255
00:56:26.159 --> 00:56:28.519
<v Speaker 2>much watched television just because like, oh my god, like

1256
00:56:28.599 --> 00:56:31.119
<v Speaker 2>this is just you know it as your train Rik here, Yeah,

1257
00:56:31.280 --> 00:56:33.159
<v Speaker 2>I saw Morley Scott tweet out today.

1258
00:56:33.159 --> 00:56:36.000
<v Speaker 1>You know it is the West Division, the new East Division, you.

1259
00:56:35.960 --> 00:56:38.079
<v Speaker 2>Know where it's kind of a bunch of mid teams

1260
00:56:38.079 --> 00:56:40.599
<v Speaker 2>and not a lot of separation. But yeah, what a

1261
00:56:40.679 --> 00:56:43.480
<v Speaker 2>world with with Ottawa here sitting at second in the East.

1262
00:56:43.519 --> 00:56:47.280
<v Speaker 2>They gotta feel great about that. Do we ride Mazzoli? Now,

1263
00:56:47.360 --> 00:56:51.360
<v Speaker 2>what's Drew Brown situation? Because you know Mizzola's I think

1264
00:56:51.480 --> 00:56:53.840
<v Speaker 2>he's transitioning to be more of a mentor, right. I

1265
00:56:53.840 --> 00:56:55.800
<v Speaker 2>think they were talking during the broadcast, and he wants

1266
00:56:55.800 --> 00:56:57.679
<v Speaker 2>to get into coaching after this. He wants to be

1267
00:56:57.719 --> 00:57:00.320
<v Speaker 2>involved and obviously he knows his time is limit just

1268
00:57:00.320 --> 00:57:02.760
<v Speaker 2>because of age, of injuries and all that. But what

1269
00:57:02.840 --> 00:57:05.199
<v Speaker 2>do you think they make there? And if nothing else,

1270
00:57:05.280 --> 00:57:07.199
<v Speaker 2>him being around the team has to be great in

1271
00:57:07.280 --> 00:57:09.119
<v Speaker 2>terms of leadership and chemistry and kind of all of

1272
00:57:09.159 --> 00:57:09.639
<v Speaker 2>that stuff.

1273
00:57:10.559 --> 00:57:13.760
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think what you know, Mizzoli's experience allows them

1274
00:57:13.760 --> 00:57:16.000
<v Speaker 3>to do is not rush Drew Brown back. But I

1275
00:57:16.000 --> 00:57:18.480
<v Speaker 3>think when Drew Brown is ready to return, they have

1276
00:57:18.559 --> 00:57:20.679
<v Speaker 3>to give him the job because I think, you know,

1277
00:57:20.760 --> 00:57:22.960
<v Speaker 3>he did get this team too, what was it like

1278
00:57:23.039 --> 00:57:25.599
<v Speaker 3>five and two or something like that by the time

1279
00:57:25.639 --> 00:57:28.000
<v Speaker 3>he got hurt. So I think he's a guy that

1280
00:57:28.599 --> 00:57:30.760
<v Speaker 3>you can build around. I think he's shown enough to

1281
00:57:31.320 --> 00:57:33.800
<v Speaker 3>for them to really turn to him going forward. And

1282
00:57:34.039 --> 00:57:37.360
<v Speaker 3>I think Mazzoli just given the fact of his health history,

1283
00:57:37.400 --> 00:57:41.239
<v Speaker 3>I think they would be wise to really ride him

1284
00:57:41.480 --> 00:57:44.000
<v Speaker 3>much farther. I think, you know, in the short term,

1285
00:57:44.039 --> 00:57:46.320
<v Speaker 3>I think he's a great option. He's a guy that's

1286
00:57:46.400 --> 00:57:49.880
<v Speaker 3>really had experience, especially within that offense because one thing

1287
00:57:49.880 --> 00:57:51.880
<v Speaker 3>that hasn't only been talked about as much is that

1288
00:57:52.119 --> 00:57:55.480
<v Speaker 3>Tommy Condell is the offensive coordinator in Ottawa and obviously

1289
00:57:55.480 --> 00:57:59.039
<v Speaker 3>Mizzoli had a lot of success in that scheme going

1290
00:57:59.039 --> 00:58:01.239
<v Speaker 3>back to his time with him, and so I think,

1291
00:58:01.639 --> 00:58:03.239
<v Speaker 3>you know, it was a really good performance and was

1292
00:58:03.360 --> 00:58:05.840
<v Speaker 3>only really happy to see him back out there. But

1293
00:58:06.159 --> 00:58:08.599
<v Speaker 3>I think Drew Brown is it's still his team going

1294
00:58:08.599 --> 00:58:11.159
<v Speaker 3>forward because he's gotten them to where they are at

1295
00:58:11.159 --> 00:58:12.119
<v Speaker 3>this point of the season.

1296
00:58:12.960 --> 00:58:14.880
<v Speaker 2>But think about all the way even last year with

1297
00:58:14.960 --> 00:58:17.719
<v Speaker 2>the crumb sanity of it all and like no, no

1298
00:58:17.880 --> 00:58:20.320
<v Speaker 2>quarterback really and now they've got you was only kind

1299
00:58:20.320 --> 00:58:23.199
<v Speaker 2>of like you said, can ride kind of be be

1300
00:58:23.280 --> 00:58:26.119
<v Speaker 2>that calming presence here we get jew Brown back, he's great.

1301
00:58:26.159 --> 00:58:27.960
<v Speaker 2>You know, we're kind of seeing this influx now with

1302
00:58:28.000 --> 00:58:30.280
<v Speaker 2>the trey Ford nave been coming back.

1303
00:58:30.599 --> 00:58:32.280
<v Speaker 1>I think jam Olin was tweeting out.

1304
00:58:32.159 --> 00:58:34.119
<v Speaker 2>You know what if you get Curtis in the CFL

1305
00:58:34.159 --> 00:58:36.519
<v Speaker 2>here in a couple of years, Curtis work like you

1306
00:58:36.599 --> 00:58:38.880
<v Speaker 2>really could kind of see this this influx that we

1307
00:58:38.960 --> 00:58:41.639
<v Speaker 2>need as Bo kind of transitions out and I think

1308
00:58:41.679 --> 00:58:43.440
<v Speaker 2>Trevor Harris will kind of fine, you know, find this

1309
00:58:43.519 --> 00:58:44.159
<v Speaker 2>way out here.

1310
00:58:44.760 --> 00:58:47.199
<v Speaker 1>Uh. I think we did good today. A lot of news.

1311
00:58:47.239 --> 00:58:49.159
<v Speaker 1>I think we went through. It wasn't too negative.

1312
00:58:49.239 --> 00:58:52.039
<v Speaker 2>Like I said, we'll probably be off for the other

1313
00:58:52.079 --> 00:58:54.199
<v Speaker 2>two weeks and I think we'll probably.

1314
00:58:53.840 --> 00:58:55.639
<v Speaker 1>Be riding ryding good there.

1315
00:58:55.679 --> 00:58:58.880
<v Speaker 2>So I think the September ninth, I think we'll go

1316
00:58:59.000 --> 00:59:01.639
<v Speaker 2>off through all that and we'll figure it out. But

1317
00:59:01.679 --> 00:59:04.000
<v Speaker 2>in the meantime, I'm always around Jason anything else. I

1318
00:59:04.000 --> 00:59:06.280
<v Speaker 2>appreciate you the flexibilities back and forth, but this was

1319
00:59:06.320 --> 00:59:07.800
<v Speaker 2>gonna kind of stop down today and do.

1320
00:59:07.760 --> 00:59:09.920
<v Speaker 1>A kind of a big recap of everything.

1321
00:59:11.199 --> 00:59:14.280
<v Speaker 3>No, really big time. As always, I always enjoy talking

1322
00:59:14.360 --> 00:59:18.679
<v Speaker 3>CFL football. I mean, I'm not uploading on the channel recently,

1323
00:59:18.800 --> 00:59:21.440
<v Speaker 3>but it's always good to get together and do these

1324
00:59:21.480 --> 00:59:24.639
<v Speaker 3>shows on a weekly basis and talk some CFL football

1325
00:59:24.639 --> 00:59:26.360
<v Speaker 3>because I think it's been a really exciting season.

1326
00:59:27.039 --> 00:59:28.719
<v Speaker 1>It has been. I really enjoyed, like I said, being

1327
00:59:28.760 --> 00:59:29.639
<v Speaker 1>able to watch everything.

1328
00:59:29.719 --> 00:59:31.800
<v Speaker 2>We'll get back in and then once the UFL stuff

1329
00:59:31.840 --> 00:59:33.639
<v Speaker 2>kicks up here in the fall, we'll call it. We'll

1330
00:59:33.719 --> 00:59:36.400
<v Speaker 2>start doing the Friday episodes again. But right now, this

1331
00:59:36.480 --> 00:59:38.639
<v Speaker 2>is perfect. This is kind of all all the schedule

1332
00:59:38.639 --> 00:59:40.960
<v Speaker 2>allows for about Jason and I, so we appreciate it.

1333
00:59:41.000 --> 00:59:43.119
<v Speaker 2>Like I said, leg and subscribe. I will see you

1334
00:59:43.159 --> 00:59:46.719
<v Speaker 2>guys here in a couple of weeks, and Abdul here

1335
00:59:46.800 --> 00:59:47.480
<v Speaker 2>send me a DM.

1336
00:59:47.519 --> 00:59:49.079
