CFL eliminating fully padded practices during regular season, effective now

Ive never watched this league so dont know much about it, but eliminating padded practices? How the hell do you emulate game action, among ten thousand other reasons to have full practices. What a clown league it must be, just give them all a participation trophy and ice cream.

Do you have a link to the article? There are certain times when they practice in helmets, then a period of time for shells then full pads (at least in the NFL)

It's even at the HS level. But at the pro level the bigger the contracts the precautions especially with concussions being at the forefront.
