North side sucks.

Go WHARGARRBLs!

 

[ThrowInA2ndRounder]

any news on when the jerseys will be revealed?

 

[MiscBrah]

I don't know if this has been discussed so feel free to link me.

When can they start signing players? Do they have to wait until the expansion draft?

I figure once free agency opens up after this year's Grey Cup.

But then again they may have to wait until after the expansion draft..

Some back up quarter backs having huge weeks this past week! Looks like we may have a bunch of good young quarterbacks to choose from in the expansion draft!

I thought the same thing. Drew Willy looked damn fine against Hamilton. Speculation is that the starter for Ottawa next year may be FA Henry Burris. Hopefully secure one of these young kids in the expansion draft to take over soon.

Can't wait for the expansion draft. Ottawa having this team will really bring my interest into CFL. I just haven't been nearly as interested since the Renegades.

 

[OttawaSenators11]

Argos backup QB Zach Collaros has been looking great thus far.

At this point, he would be a must have, imo.

Yeah, i was in the same boat. I am watching this year a little more regularly looking for players that could be had in the expansion draft, especially Qb's like Collaros, Tate, etc.

 

[Vaclav Varada]

They were saying burris is a main candidate at this point.

 

[Stonewall]

Please let the media refer to them as Redblacks...

This thread should be stickied

And there should be a redblacks prefix, like how the Oilers board has a Eskimos prefix

I second this notion.

Good call, sir!

BTW - are you still going to be a "saskriders" fan next season?

Still need to draft a young QB like Collaros in the expansion draft for our future.
Burris is like what 38-39 and is obviously getting old.

Get it done mods. Every other NHL city has a ton of stickied OT threads for their other teams, finally it's our turn.

I say the RedBlacks would be stupid to pass up Bo Levi Mitchell if Calgary doesn't protect him. Guy is the real deal and can LAUNCH the football 70 yards on a rope!

Bo knows football!

 

[saskriders]

Yes, from Calgary. Only lived in Ottawa for 1 year of university then dropped out. Might move back when I am done school though. Also, Ottawa might become my second favourite CFL team

Agreed! He'd be fantastic, but at this point i would be surprised if Calgary didn't protect Mitchell.

He looks better than the often injured Tate and Glenn isn't obviously going to be protected.

Hopefully he gets a handful of games in this season. He was brilliant in his debut, but I'd hate to see us pick a guy off a one or two game sample.

At least for our starter anyway.

Please let the media refer to them as the Rough Riders or Renegades or The Ottawa CFL Team. Anything other than RedBlacks

I concur. This should be mandatory and immediate.

 

[M4TR1X]

I believe the people of Ottawa should also get a petition of some sort to request a name change.
I haven't met anyone who actually likes the team name being 'Redblacks.'
