Parker dropped a load in his shorts on that one.

Gauthier out practicing his long snapping. I know Benson got tweaked.

Vaval is good.

He’s not on the sidelines.

With VA in Calgary, it just makes the West more competitive overall.

This. I'm so sick of "hazy / juicy" IPAs. While not really pine forward, Low Life's Double Times IPA is phenomenal and surprisingly (dangerously) easy to drink at 7.8%.

Guys, keep politics out of the thread. We’ve been so good for so long, please continue to abide by Rich’s wishes and forum rules. I’ve pruned a few posts to get us back on track.

You might consider switching to decaf.

I honestly don't think he's lost that escapability: it's that he's forced to escape more often than he has at any other time with us (and sees significantly more pressure from all over). He never lets his feet settle and so he's always off platform when he throws and a big part of that is because he doesn't trust his protection.

This. This was really what I was getting at in terms of the "guys we've had in camp" the last while .. I can't honestly say we've brought in the right guys .. I can't honestly say that I trust the process when for, the last three years, we've seen where we are deficient and have not had those holes addressed. There hasn't been a concerted effort to find the next Bighill or Jefferson or Stanley Bryant. There's no pipeline or succession plan. All that said, I will give this organization credit, we've won a tonne of games and have enjoyed a lot of really great football but rightly or wrongly it *feels* like that window is closing.

Frankly, while wins in the regular season are fun and easy to rally around, championships are what matter and the "pieces we've brought in" haven't been up to the task.

Total knee jerk reaction but ... I know Free Agency hasn't truly started and that you don't win a Grey Cup in February. I know it's still early and that the braintrust has their plan. It just feels like the market is saying "Anywhere but Winnipeg .." Ooof. Hard to look at the pieces we are losing and losing out on then reflect on the guys we've had in camp the last while (and how we've used / evaluated those players) and feel good about the coming season.

That's a damn shame. I loved Wolitarsky as a player and always felt he was misused in our offense over the years. Thank you for your years in Blue and Gold!

If I'm being honest .. I'd say, no ... we don't. We may have a few pieces but, overall, we lack physicality and presence on both sides of the ball.
