Congrats Brandon Isaac

I'm not sure how widely known this is amongst the CockyTalk crowd, but I didn't see a thread about it, so here goes...

Up in the CFL, our Brandon Isaac is a member of the Toronto Argonauts, who just won the Grey Cup. So, congrats to him on that! It's nice to see any of our guys win a pro championship, even if it is up in the surreal CFL.

Nice stuff and thanks. I did not know this.

Thanks for the info! Congrats to Brandon.

Congrats to Brandon....it's a shame the way they dealt Cory Boyd, cutting him when he was their leading rusher, or he'd have been a part of that too.....his replacement wound up being the Grey Cup MVP....

Here's what I mean about the CFL being surreal, by the way.

Gamecock303 · 11-28-2012, 02:17 AM

after what Toronto did to Boyd I was hoping they wouldn't win it.

i don't watch CFL but watching that clip I realize I probably wouldn't have an idea about what was happening.

but congrats to Brandon on the championship. :)

i always thought that he had potential but just had injury prbs

Boyd apparently got picked up from Edmonton after Toronto, and just got released from them too in October. Even after leading the league in rushing.

reading some articles quoting Boyd about his whole situation up there this year.

TOTAL class act. don't really know anything about the CFL, so I don't know of the egos up north, but everything Boyd has said about the whole situation has been very classy.

Quote:

Before anyone can make that judgment on Sunday, Boyd’s presence will depend on Reed’s decision on whether he plays against the Argonauts at all.

“It’s up in the air, but I think that’s a good thing for the team, not knowing who is going to play,” Boyd said. “You get the best out of your players on the practice field because everybody’s trying to show the coaches who deserves to be out there.

“It’s ultimately always a coach’s decision on that.”

Between coaches and GMs, Boyd has done a painful amount of sitting this season for a back who gained 1,359 yards rushing in 2010 and 1,141 in 2011.

For those who have ever wondered why people say football is a great game but a hard business, look no further than the curious case of Cory Boyd.
