    Left it all out there.

    Doug Flutie weighed in on the CFL moves to change field dimensions and placement of goalposts, expressing his concerns over the percieved move to 'americanize' the game.  Realtionships are hard wn and sometime even harder lost as Darian Durant explains his feelings after Andy Fantuz left via free agency for Hamilton from Saskatchewan in 2012.  Some big names have landed with new teams: Wynton McManis and Tre Ford find themselves in Hamilton; Austin Mack signs in Edmonton, Dakoda Shepley returns to the CFL signing with Toronto and the Roughriders defence looks to get picked over by Ottawa (CFL on CBC theme used with express permission; podcast recorded Feburary 9, 2026).

    Pieces to the puzzle.

    CFL revenues continue to climb and as a result so does the Salary Cap, however the Expenditures Cap (coaches and foootball operations) may remain stagnant, again.  Willie Jefferson admits to thinking about leaving Winnipeg after the playoff loss in Montreal.  While some recievers re-sign with their clubs (Ottawa- Justin Hardy, Saskatchewan- Samuel Emilus) others are released (Hamilton- Tom White, Montreal Austin Mack) prior to off-season bonuses.  When to fire a Coach, was NFL Buffalo Bills ownership correct in firing Sean McDermott after seven-straight 10-win seasons?  (CFL on CBC theme music used with epxpress permission; podcast recorded January 26, 2026).

    Who’s your backup.

    CFL 2026 Winter Meetings in Calgary leave more questions... while the last minutes of a half remain unchanged, new overtime rules will end ties (only four since 2010) forever from the three-yard-line.  Will playoff ties end the same way?   The current playoff structure seems under fire from the Commissioner.  Were the restrictions placed on scoring a single point really a structural change?  Where is the next scrimmage line after on a kick sends a ball out of the endzone?  (CFL on CBC theme music used with express permission; podcast recorded January 19, 2026).
