    Collaros may be an Argo QB within a week or so.

    I agree with Paul. In addition, I doubt that the Ticats would ever trade Collaros to the Argos because they would rather trade him to a western team where if he is successful it would not be a constant reminder in the same division just down the road. Furthermore, I strongly doubt they would do it just before the Labour Day classic, the most important regular season game for the two teams, regardless of their position in the standings.

    Given that this league has (and enforces) a salary cap, how could the Argos absorb a half-million salary for a backup?

    Only if he is released, and negotiates a cap friendly contract for the remainder of this season would that even be a possibility. Won't happen.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    I really don't know if there is anything going on but there have been some rumours out there of Johhny Manziel signing in Hamilton within the next few days. Two former members of the media who used to cover the CFL extensively, Peter Young and Marty York, have both mentioned this on Twitter in the past 24 hours.

    June Jones PLUS Johnny Football ? - the Pussycats will run the table the rest of this season, and win the GC with ease.

    Poor "Caretaker" Bob-O there - guy has no clue about football, and a moron like Tillspin whispering football wisdom to him. Much as us Argo fans love to hate the Ticats, I don't wish for any CFL team to be useless or pathetic - not good for the league IMO - but this Ticat team could go 0 & 18; or at least match the 1 & 17 record they had under a tired and lost Ronnie Lancaster a number of years back.

    I would LOVE to see the Pussy-Cats go 0-18.
    But yes, an extended period of that type of record would probably damage the league.
    So, I would like to see enough years like that for the Cats to relocate somewhere else!


    (Yes, I know that won't happen - but I can dream!)

    Somewhat misleading. Accept half your current salary to be a backup or compete for a starting role? What’s the point? Especially, when you can be a starter somewhere else in the league and get paid as one. Knowing how Collaros wanted to stick it to the Argonauts with his infamous goodbye wave, it would be interesting seeing him lead the Argonauts over the Cats next year!
