I dont believe nor take much of what comes out of his mouth for much other than pointless babble
If Alston was hurt, then maybe they did have designs on him being part of the plan....he has the tools it would seem, and obviously should know the playbook.
Some these injuries can and will be a blessing in disguise, and force us to actually look and evaluate some players in a legitimate manner....and based on the pre-season games...and parts of the firat 2 gaes before the injuries came we have the makings of a real good dline....and could see quite an influx of talent later in the summer when they all get back to health.
Hopefully we let BA "rest" next game and then just keep 6 gaming him...let him get his pay for hisyrs of service that way, as opposed to Oshin' it as we have been with guys actually on the roster....Maybe the coaches will realize Thomas tweeked something in practice too and park him there as well....tough for him to get hurt when he tippy toeing around, and not going full bore like the other guys tho, or having no lateral moves where he may tweek something....and I guess the old adage goes there you can't pull...or injure fat.
Maybe this yr, our best option is to get hot after labour day and crawl into the cross-over....knock MTL off in the East Final...that be a nice redemption and win the Cup as the East Champs...cause right now we in a big hole and I have a hard time seeing us host a home playoff game with what we have seen
Stick Holm there...and use a combo of Nichols..Bridges and Griffen as the HB's...Bond is solid on the corner...and Ford is finding his mojo
