We lack a lawler type, but we also aren’t going to stumble on one. And it takes time to develop a wr. At this point i’d just give rhymes the bag. But it isn’t happening.

"Unfortunately, in this business you have to make decisions that are best for the team, but not necessarily for the individual player. Saying goodbye to people you care about is the worst part of my job, but we felt like we had to do it in the best interest of the club.” That's what Rigmaiden said when they released him - doesn't sound injury related to me. It sounds like they didn't feel they were getting the performance they wanted at the price they were paying.

Not a surprise, I said since last y season end that he'd likely not be available until labor day area. Prob why they brought Korn back so early into the off-season...If he really doesnt jump off the page and dominate and show he can be a legit pro he should be gone..

depth in terms of bodies PERHAPS...but that.doesn't really translate to depth that can actually play. If we go away from a traditional 5 receiever set on occasion it will likely be more of a hybrid te/slot usage with MCI and at times Daniels....Could see many plays where BO moves out spit wide with MCI in backfield ir 2 back sets where one is in motion in some capacity. Demski/Neild/Clercius is a good trio to start 2 canadians with nice depth with the 3rd guy for injury and or some rotational packages....and then Cobb as bottom roster depth to cover the 3rd guy if injury happens, as he has returner use, and can do several things on offence is the logical choice, especially with Daniels here now, and the continued development of MCI. Corcorran should not be on roster...he is a non factor on teams in any way...blocking pales in comparison to Neild and Clercius...and now Daniels and is lomited in his routes and doing anything with the ball. Denmark could cut and change routes at speed without gearing down, and then actually shift into a higher gear after the catch...or to track a ball...thats what made him so good we sorely lacking any kind of big play guy outside the 3 main incumbents. Neild and Clercius are more possession guys and reliable chain movers....we need a legit burner or big athletic freak that will just bully DB's and win contested balls and garner attention. What I witnessed at camp is less than inspiring right now. Hopefully the pre-season games unearth a gem, but not sure who that will be yet Going with a pedestrian Canadian who will basically just be a guy out there taking up a position and eating reps but have no real impact on anything, let alone be a threat ain't doing ZC any help.

Let’s go Habs. End the curse. They last won it in 1993 and only they can break the curse. They will beat Carolina guaranteed as Carolina has been off for way 2 long. Colorado Montreal final. Book it. Montreal wins. Guaranteed. They have faced a ton of adversity. 2 game 7s. Carolina has 2 sweeps. Montreal will beat them. Honestly Montreal. How can’t you cheer for them. Bunch of young guys who are having fun and a goalie who don’t take no **** from other teams players plus the best in arena environment in hockey by far and I’m a Jets fan but Montreal has a way more electric atmosphere all game. It’s not close.

Yeah. I don’t think so. I think he’s washed. Dude played in the nfl for a while, 32 years old now, I dunno. Seems like injury related tho. I’m not sure if it’s washed or injured. Was 6 gamed last year so to be an early cut likely suggests he’s not healthy. 32 and prob has a few bucks saved up means the motivation likely wasn’t there anymore. If not for the local team then likely not for anyone else either. I’d rather the rifles kid get a shot.

Being cut is not always a result of not being good. Salary, and in Covington's case he was compensated well, vs performance can seal a player's fate. Covington, on the right contract, is a CFL calibre player still. He's not going to light the world on fire or anything but he would represent a big upgrade in depth to us. Question is whether he would come here for a contract that would fit his role.

I’ve watched it on the nfl network we get for free here. Apparently they draw good tv numbers. Not cfl numbers but more than nhl mls pWHL and some other leagues they say. On average. It’s about 650k ish, not bad. But not overly good but with tv and streaming loving live events and sports, they prob stick around longer than ppl think. Aew wrestling draws about that on average maybe less and WBD were happy over 500k. I think 500k viewers is the breaking point. Get below that and you prob won’t last long. UFL at 650k prob means they last a while. Most teams draw 15k but ppl in the markets are watching on tv. Ppl don’t go to games but they watch. It’s interesting. It’s like a league of Toronto where they draw lots of viewers on tv but they don’t go to the games. Perhaps the stigma of being associated with minor league football plays a role. They aren’t pretending to be the nfl tho.

within another yr...maybe 2...UFL will be gone like a fart in the wind....

His lack of any sort of stat line outside of 1 game tho means he gets cut by other teams. Korn is just a joke. With that said Ticats picked up Kolo so maybe someone does give schmek a shot. Korn tho is cut. As for Covington, he was cut early so tells me he’s not good. I think he’s washed up. Never lived up to the hype really. Don’t think it changes at his age

I'm a fan of cold weather games so I don't love the season up. However, I believe the league wants more nice weather games late in the year. Basically they'd rather have **** weather now, instead of week 21.

I watch the UFL on TV when I can find it...problem is, there is little to no information on when that is outside of week 1. I know it's on Fox...on the weekend...but not sure what day of or time. Haven't seen anything online about the televised games. And for a league that was/is propped up by the tv deal they have you'd think they'd put a big emphasis on getting that info out.

boy that sucks. We don’t have a lot of ni dt depth. I wonder what zach davis the riffles kid from last year is doing. is he with the bisons now? sure should. I’d bet that doesn’t happen. For one lawson is the only guy on the roster who is a real nose. One of our rookie imp dts would have to be an absolute monster to steal that job, even then i wouldn’t bet on it happening. would’ve been nice to have kept adams, but he didn’t take any steps forward while here. schmek has made him self into a legit end of the roster ni. He was brutal as a rookie, but he improved a lot. Plus he diversified his skill set with blocking in heavy set /kick team. With his hustle, foot work, hand use, and intangibles, I think most teams would’ve converted him to a guard or C. If he picked up snapping reasonably well (which snapping to the pistol is not nearly as difficult as deep shot gun) he would be an excellent C.

Do they take a look at Covington now?

Korn and Schmek both get cut on other teams.

Looks like it right now.

So Kornelson takes Schmekel's spot?

I'm actually not totally convinced Lawson will even start at DT... I could see a scenario where it's all-import on the DL with Lawson, Gatkuoth, and KMB in rotation. Maybe.

Faaaaaack... People ***** but he was a more than adequate back up at NI DT. Who's next up.... Time for Fatboi to strap em back on? :)

Not sure if it was mentioned but Schmekel was added to the 6 game list today.

MTL @ CAR VGK @ COL

And they looked like ass for most of it which was nice. They had a nothing major in the last 30 seconds, otherwise were useless most of the afternoon. I'll take it.

Just like communism, having a league run like it's a central committee in Moscow with no team GM's or scouting positions... everything run out of one head office ... one guy making all the decisions just does not work. The teams can't respond to unique local needs of the fans. It's no wonder the UFL is struggling. There's no connection to any local markets.

expansion out of desperation. trying to expand to stave off the league dying. changes 2 years out when the league is at best year to year is beyond a hail mary
