and Pokemon fans take another hit....since he voiced Meowth and James the big three of Team Rocket is well I could make an easy joke about how they make their exit every episode but I won't

And today I took the practice trip to my workplace, it went rather smoothly

Tim White

Lawler here too

Jalen Philpot

I think Wilson is better suited at slot between those two as well.

If Ontaria Wilson gets cut who do you guys think moves to slot to upgrade sterns? Wheatfall or Wilson? I’m thinking Wilson because he’s a bit more physical that Wheatfall and if Wheatfall continues to have success there at wideout why mess with the chemistry.

came from the line backing group Jones used to during pre-game go out of his way to piss players off so they wanted to kill him....He said it took players off their game and responsibilities and allowed him to wreak havoc.

I'm sure he will be but they only do one per year for the ROH (with the exception of 2016 when it was first created). He's already in the Bombers & CFL HOF so the ring is the only thing left for him.

My gosh. How can you even say that with a straight face?

His buddy James West should be in there as well.

I would say the early Ritchie era had one of the better DLs. Mostly due to Brown and Warner in the middle. Those guys got consistent pressure, rushing 3 or 4.

Tommy Stevens

I hear Biggie is paying MOS bribes so that Jake plays so much. Its being funded by Wellington Alltus for some reason.

The bit about Bighill standing on the sidelines handing the Stamps info is just going to stir up all the crazies.... I just literally can't even.

Glad he’s going out on his own terms . . . with someone else. Hey if he lights it up with the Stumps, I’m glad he was able to find his form again.

He was one of my favorite players of that era. Him and Joe Pop. That play where Jones crushed Dieter and Mikawos ran for about 70 yards for the TD on the fumble was the TSN turning point.

'Show them what you're about': Ex-Bombers star Bighill eager for more

Based on Walbys story within Tait's piece, it could very well have been Molle...

Who was it that had the temerity to nickname Jones “Butt an’ Gut”? Was that West? 😆

I want to add that our echo chamber position is also indicative of the nature of the league. Us talent levels are fairly static. The gap between top US talent in the CFL and replacement level isn't huge. Teams win based on Canadian talent and depth in the modern CFL. The gap between top Canadian talent and end of the end-of-the-roster guys is gigantic. The difference between the teams with the best Canadian talent and the worst is the same as the difference between the top and bottom teams. Teams always try to buy a contender in free agency based on IMP stars. And that process is slow, plus it’s hit or miss, depending on your ability to draft and develop Canadians. We signed Imps and developed NIs under the mafia. We still have among the very best ni position player/players in the league. We also have good depth, and lots of developing young guys. So we have a good team and a future. As long as we keep moving those guys up. Our primary limiting factor is also our worst starting Canadians. I don't think the ringmaiden/penn thing was (if I am right, that is) some active decision to weed them out. I'm not sure we have purposely created an echo chamber. It happens we've built around Canadians, who have made their bones with Canadian talent. But I think we have created a strong echo chamber. McManis is pretty hands off. He's mostly in the US and out of the room, searching for talent. Jim Jauch is about the most Canadian, Anerican-born football front office guy in the league. He's a reverse Cahoon. Brock Sunderland might be the only guy who has a chance to be real outside eyes with a diverse view. When we barely played them on D in pre-season, I knew we were cooked. We'd better do more with them next year in camp and preseason. We have done this before a lot, drafted on potential, then left guys to rot in situational play. First down, Will and Mac in general are the second easiest and fastest positions for rookies and Canadians to adapt to the cfl at. (Rb easiest, Db a close second for rookie imps) We would be dramatically better off starting 1 of them at 1 lber spot and rotating them, than going with Thomas/Kornelson at DL, Hallett at S, etc. What we might lose at that position, vs what we lose at DT, Guard etc is gigantic. The near future of our team needs to heavily include guys like clercius, Wallace, Lawson, Shay, smith, and the current crop of ni youth. We aren’t likely to see a draft class like the last two years repeatedly. We’ve already lost guys like ford, Dobson etc. Wasting time not using guys like that and letting them develop only makes our future worse. All of the above guys are able to contribute regularly on o/d as well as teams.
