Just watching the Buck Pierce press conference. Now I await the Akeem Foster press conference. First question - "being you were a BC Lion, have you ever talked to any sports media ever". Actually, I look forward to his look of bewilderment when the media greets him at the airport. "You guys know I'm a football player in the CFL right? You guys came to the airport to talk to me? What?" Man does Buck look sad. I think he genuinely hoped that he could play a few more years and retire a Blue Bomber. It's too bad he took so many shots to the noggin. He's never been right since he was blown up by Craig Butler in the 2011 Banjo Bowl. Anyway, I wish him all the best in BC. Hopefully the Lions can win one more Cup with Buck on board. Lulay could use a vet around to kick him in the ass, he's been horribly inconsistent this year. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zuYLBLZn-E

I'm curious as to why BC gave up on Foster. He's looked to me to be just as good as Gore or Iannuzzi. Weird.

Parenteau is too old and his veteran experience is meaningless - Joe Mack.

and yet I bet there are a few teams who are liking what they are seeing from Aaron Kelly. That dude is playing like a 2011 Clarence Denmark...

Not sure why anyone would want to be Bomber HC until they have a QB. Otherwise it's just a kamikaze mission.

The Lions had a Bollywood dance show for the last home game against Hamilton, and the cheering for the dancers was louder than the cheering during the game for the players. Well, almost as loud. What I am trying to say is that the dancing was really good, and that the Lions have crappy fans.

That would require me giving a crap.

So who do you sit then? Denmark? Edwards? Sims-Walker? Aaron Kelly? I vote none of the above. Instead lets start an import at Safety.

Cauchy... Right!

Yeah I liked Volny more than Woodson, just because of Volny's good game last year against Montreal, and because Woodson seemed to get hurt more than he played. Anyway, I have a feeling that Mr. Walters has another surprise for us yet in the making. Any other O-Linemen out there (NI) sitting on 9 game injured lists but not injured? Scott Mitchell in Edmonton?

I like that Parenteau has won a Grey Cup. About time we started acquiring guys who have been on a winning team and can bring that experience to the locker room, of actually winning. How many other GC winners do we have currently on the roster? With Buck gone I can't think of too many, other than Foster, the guy we got in exchange for him, and DeAngelis (I think he won in 2008?).

No - I want to see Morley and a 6th round pick go to Edmonton for JC Sherritt and a second rounder. Come on Walters make it happen!!

till the death eh 17? at least we know that if your ever a captain of a ship and she sinks, you would go down with her. You going to argue with anything I've said or just try and poke away at people? Which is more logical? That Arceneaux is a ****** of epic proportions who is taking to twitter to slag an ex team mate over a comment that said nothing more than "Wow." (which is probably what every one of us said when we saw the trade) or that it's more good natured than anything. It's not that I'm defending Elliott to the death, it's that I'm arguing against the over reactions and piling on that goes on here far too often. Pay attention and you might see exactly what sorts of things I will argue. Iunno... calling someone a clown doesn't feel like good natured ribbing to me.... you should hear the things my friend and I call each other, makes clown look like nothing FYP - we all know your only friend is Noeller.

Yet he was on the O-line that won the Grey Cup last year.....

slowly but surely we are turning under-utilized or completely un-utilized assets into serviceable contributors who can step in and make a difference. I don't think this solves our O-Line woes but it sure helps. Small steps to a longer goal. Keep up the good work Kyle.

Maybe Arceneaux meant to say that about the original tweeter? Tank Tursel? I really give little heed to what is posted by athletes and celebrities on Twitter.

Seriously, who do you think we could get for Poblah or Edwards? I love reading the trade proposals here where we trade rowboats for battleships. If you had told me yesterday that we could get Akeem Foster for Buck, I'd have said you were nuts. Now I think anything is possible. Poblah for Bourke! Kohlert for Cornish! Morley for Fantuz! Walters you da man!

How many daughters does Wally have?

3.5 years ago.

Goltz said in the post game interview on CJOB that he was fine, and the knee thing was just a "scare", whatever the hell that means.

Off topic but does Buck have an invested interest in Danny's Whole Hog? Or are they just partners in a restaurant? Danny and Bucks restaurant which is the old Hus on first. I went once and thought it was great. Definitely better then Woody's and Famous Dave's. No idea why the hate? I love Danny and Bucks - the ribs are awesome. Not sure about why the hate either - maybe Mike's a vegan? Muslim? Just plain weird. Also - not sure why Wally made this trade. This essentially works out to us getting Akeem Foster for nothing, given we got Buck as a free agent. I don't get it. But I've like Foster from the first time I saw him play. Now it's time for act two - we're going to be trading away one of our NI receivers, maybe even two. But I am thinking Walters and Miller already know who they want, and what the price is, so this was just Act one of a two act play.
