TORONTO -- The CFL and its players will conduct their ratification votes on a new labour deal later this week. Cheap Nike Air Max 270 Blue . Independent league sources requesting anonymity say the players will vote Thursday while the CFLs board of governors will do so Friday. The CFL and CFL Players Association agreed to a five-year contract Saturday. However, many players have spoken out against the new deal which calls for a $5-million salary cap, well below the CFLPAs opening demand of $6.24 million. The CFL also got a major concession from the union on the gross revenue formula that would trigger the renegotiation of the cap or entire collective agreement. The players, who initially wanted the CBA to include revenue sharing, had called for the cap or entire agreement to be renegotiated if league revenues increased by more than $18 million -- excluding the Grey Cup -- in the third year of the deal. The CFL wanted that figure to be $27 million and the union ultimately agreed. The union did get elimination of the option year on CFL contracts, excluding rookies. Also, the players practice day for the most part remains at 4.5 hours daily but can be increased to a maximum of six hours, and teams will hold just one padded practice a week during the season. A majority of players -- 50 per cent plus one -- on six of the nine CFL teams must support the deal for it to be accepted. If its rejected, that doesnt necessarily mean the players will go on strike. All clubs have held strike votes with most players reportedly in favour of going out. But TSN reports if the deal is turned down the CFLPA will notify the CFL and try kick-starting contract talks.

Hundreds of messages every day. A lot of people want to see this fight and they have a good reason to.McGregors sharp barbs seem to have got under Poiriers skin despite his best efforts to turn the other cheek. UFC boss Dana White had to separate the two when they faced off Thursday at a media gathering, with Poirier heading towards McGregor at full steam.McGregor, 26, is predicting a first-round knockout, with a title shot to follow. Although he tweeted this week: Ive decided Im going to toy with him.Thats a step back from earlier McGregor Twitter boasts such as In 3 weeks I raise his decapitated head in glory.Poirier says he is just being myself by trying not to respond to McGregors long list of taunts. But the southern gentleman approach does not mean he is not taking notice.I want to get up and smack him around at press conferences when hes running his mouth. But Im a professional. Ill let him run of his mouth, Poirier said in an interview. I feel like he might have some insecurities if he needs to talk that much. Im not trying to prove anything to people with running my mouth. It doesnt make sense to me. I think hes doing it to make himself believe in himself. I dont know, some guys might need that. Personally I know who I am, as the man and a fighter.Thats what Im looking to. Im not looking forward to press conferences. Im looking forward to Saturday the 27th when I get to put my hands on him.Fridays weigh-in offered another taste of the mayhem to come with McGregor, who came on stage first, edging toward the scales as Poirier stepped on them.

McGregor is a fine counter-puncher who uses an array of prickly kicks to keep his opponent off balance.The bookies have made the abrasive McGregor as high as a 3-1 favourite.As for McGregors jibe at a UFC 178 media day in August that his opponent is a quiet little hillbilly from the backass of nowhere, Poirier notes that he went to the same high school as Cormier, who gets his title shot in January.A lot of guys came out of this area: Melvin Guillard, Rich Clementi, Tim Credeur. Just to name a few. The 25-year-old Poirier moved to Florida to expand his training options after losing to Chan Sung Jung — better known as the Korean Zombie — in May 2012. He has won four of five since, with the lone blemish a decision loss to Cub Swanson. Poirier has won his last three, beating Akira Corassani, Brandao and Erik Koch.Poirier believes McGregor is a self-promoter who has talked his way up the ladder.I built where Im at with my bare hands, said Poirier.
