It's 2 games...one against a terrible Ticat team that will have the worst secondary in the CFL this year. Hearing them on 1150 TSN and they still make it seem like the Cats are a true contender. I thank them for the CFL coverage, but they're overestimating the Ticats. They'll be 0-3 after their losses this Sunday and in their home opener next week.

Back to the Argos receivers, Armanti Edwards had a good game last week compared to week 1, but Posey's dropped pass in the end zone as another poster mentioned should've been caught. He also dropped one in the season opener, but not in the end zone. ...Would be nice to see Jimmy Ralph get some playing time in the slot as all he did in the pre-season was catch everything that went his way. I think he deserves a series or two with the offense and not just special teams action.

We're probably in the same age bracket because I remember that '82 and '83 receiving corps. Hard to put in Scott McGee there despite playing well in the latter end of 1982, he was released by Obie after 2 games in 1983....I still remember his stat line of 4 catches for 14 yds in those first 2 games and not agreeing with Obie's decision. In hindsight, the only reason I could see for his release is because they needed a roster spot for John Palazeti who was signed at around the same time, even though McGee was an import. Palazeti was a veteran Canadian blocking back that is credited by Cedric Minter for throwing a game winning block in one of his game winning TD runs in either the East final or in the Grey Cup game that year. Also interesting to note that 3 of your 6 guys mentioned from that era were Canadians in Carinci, Pearson and Townshend.
