Mike

I'm sure I can guess what you're implying. But no. And yes, they're different. Not by much, but they are.

While I don't disagree with you.. Brown is a recognizable face at this point.. alot of new fans won't know who Richard Harris was or Tyrone Jones.. You have to consider all the angles.. and its not like Brown was some rag player who doesn't deserve the recognition.. He was arguably 1-2 of the best interior defensive line men (and canadian to boot) that we have seen... I have to be honest, I just don't really care for Doug Brown. lol

I can think of about 6 or 7 people I'd pick before Doug Brown, honestly. Milt, Ploen, Walby, Poplawski, Cal Murphy, Tyrone Jones, Richard Harris, Cameron ... ok, 8.

I know I'm going to take heat for this but I would not have chosen Doug Brown.

... MBB 50/50 pool?

Totally not worth a new thread but I thought it was kind of interesting anyways. When I checked out the stadium yesterday, they had the 50/50 booths set up. Same thing as the Jets games now where you go to a booth and they print you off a ticket. Looks like they're going to follow the same prices as the Jets games too, 1 for $5, 3 for $10 and 10 for $25. But then I saw the last option. 50 tickets for $50 I had to laugh. What a waste to buy just one nowadays. Get to know your row and split the cost of 50 or hell, instead of buying 1 a game for 9 or 10 games, just buy 50 once all year and quintuple your odds.

-- Didn't see Pierce do anything while I was there, but Hall/Goltz clearly a level above Clement. Hall puts really good touch on his passes. Wasn't paying much attention to the end result because obviously the whole point is to force throws and go through reps, but it was annoying to see Clement pulling the ball down and running with it in a PASSING drill. One coach gave him **** for it too. -- The only receiver that I didn't see drop at least one pass was Brett Carter from the Rifles, although I also didn't notice anyone throw a single pass to Wallace Miles so I won't comment on him. Massey is tiny and man, is he ever tricky once he gets the ball. Whoever 70 is, he looks like a horribly sloppy route runner. -- Fitzgerald is SLOW. But he looks like a manbeast. -- I didn't have a roster but I noticed 20, 38, 40 and 41 making plays on defense in coverage. It's really hard to try and pick out defenders who DON'T look good, but those guys each broke up a few passes. -- Trevor Kennedy dropped a couple but he made one beautiful cut on a defender and in a game, he would've been gone for as long as he had to be. -- Didn't watch the punters or the DL/OL ... I saw the punters carrying around a ball that wasn't a football (rugby ball, I think?) so I just didn't even bother.

What I don't get is that I thought Taman was unreal at finding defensive ends. He's done horrible in Saskatchewan with that, yet he's pulling defensive backs out of his rear left and right and when he was here, the best he could find us was Okeydokey Imgonnagetcha

Very solid MS Paint logo. A+ effort, Ottawa. Then again, our logo is a god damn giant W so I guess I shouldn't throw stones.

I'm going to try and make it to the second session today.

Expand the blue search button in the menu on the left side, it's there.

If we can get 6 more participants, we can run two leagues.

Bob Irving saying Rifles junior Brett Carter doesn't look out of place at all at camp so far.

So apparently, according to what I heard, Carmon asked for his release.

if he plans to call the infraction he needs to go ahead and do it. It wasn't a delayed call because both teams had a player going off. I get all of that, but what did the Hawks player do to deserve a penalty on that play? He only reached up to hold on as he was being power bombed to the ice. I probably wouldn't have called either of them (Wings player was questionable), but especially not the Hawks player. It was just a terrible call all around. Saad did absolutely nothing to earn a penalty.

hmmm... i suggest a video or youtube tab for when we post? THIS! Also, as a designer, I'd suggest a logo that didn't have 4 different fonts in it. I like the football you used. If you want me to hammer one out, I can do it next week! We were actually going to open up to the community for logo designs because we knew there were some really solid designers out there. You were one of the guys I had in mine, so that'd be great if you had the time to put something together!

Second session goes today, let's keep day two stuff here.

Surprising lack of coverage thus far but the first thing I heard was essentially "goodbye Mike Renaud" Cameron looked good. Real good.

really glad to have you. not a slight on anyone else here, but during gameday, yours are some of the contributions I look forward to most.

for any reason in particular? (i mean, besides the fact that it would be a huge middle finger to the Riders?) That's my reason.

I hope he goes to Calgary

And heeeeeeeeeere we go
