Thinking this thread is beyond off topic and ready for a new generic off season thread eh?

Bass was not good enough to deserve this kind of reverence years after his departure...

(I am absolutely not a supporter of John Hodge, but nonetheless.....) https://3downnation.com/2019/05/01/john-hodges-2019-cfl-mock-draft-3-0/

combo of Gray, Couture, Speller and Foketi to take Chungh and Goosen spots means I'm not even the least bit concerned...

Fwiw, I trust our OL coach as much as anything......

Of all things, I would really hope that a Centre and RG would be easily replaced by guys that have been in the system for as many years as Foketi and Couture, not to mention if Geoff Gray is as good as advertised and wins the RG spot outright...

I read that Hodge piece yesterday and found it to be way off. Why do people think our OL is going to be decimated by losing Goosen and Chungh?? We're FINALLY at a level where we can plug-and-play at multiple positions because we've been utilizing the Draft-and-Develop method to its full potential. What the hell has Michael Couture been doing the last few years if not getting ready for this exact moment?? This idea that we desperately need to draft OL is horseshit. Sure we'll take one early so we can re-stock the cupboard, but we don't desperately need a guy to come in and start like we did with Chungh. Hodge has never been accurate with his drafts.....the only one to watch is Dunk, who has a history of being extremely accurate in his mock drafts...

Yeah, I remember the name, as well....interesting. They must really like the guy...

I don't know that that's a guy the Jets need. He's got injury questions all over him...

same sweater and shades....it was totally an homage. Had to be.

I actually laughed out loud when Lebowski Thor says "I KNEW IT!!" as Cap picks up the hammer...

-Committed to using a DI on a Returner this year -Hopeful Charles Nelson proves to be a Day 1 starter at Rec/Ret -Lucky Whitehead not signed yet, but hoping to get him signed before camp -Derek Jones and Jake Thomas hopefully both start this year. Thomas took 50%+ snaps last year...have no problem with him starting at DT. -Definite potential of starting 3 NI Rec -2 QBs from mini-camp will hopefully be at Main Camp incl McGuire

Biggest pop in our theatre was for Spiderman first appearance in the film, as Strange opens up the portals to let everyone back in. Lotta love for ol Pete...

Read an article this morning about Cap going back for Peggy. It was an interesting idea that Cap is her husband all along and they have kids together but, after the time travel, he's just an ordinary guy who ages, albeit a little slower because of the serum. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/avengers-endgame-captain-america-ending-isnt-what-it-seems-1205370

I really didn't see this coming. Did not think the Canes (namely Mrazek) were this good...

Wanted to see Coulson return and was sad when he didn't. Shocked that Fury was basically not even in the movie (nor Maria Hill). Also not stoked about FalconCap. Shoulda been Bucky... That's the only one that makes sense. That said, one thing I've been begging for was SHIELD in the 70s and we got a little taste of that which was awesome. Overall I really enjoyed it. I need to watch it a second time to decompress it all. So much happened, it's almost hard to process it all in real time.

It's relatively speaking of course, but in terms of NHL D, I would definitely say Trouba doesn't have high hockey IQ. I also personally think he's got a work ethic problem. Laziness and not that smart are a bad combo.

I would hate to see us blow our load on a WIL, and not have the money to go after a big time receiver that might shake loose prior to the season, but I trust Walters to know his cap situation as well or better than anyone...

You just have to think Bighill would be in Walters ear about this...to at least take a peek...

Is Solly worth the money? I mean, in theory, everyone would love to have SM/AB4 lined up next to each other again...

I get what Colin's saying and actually agree with him, in that there's angry old white men who don't want any kind of change ever (it's an Alberta thing that I'm discovering exists outside these borders...)....... .....Having said that, I really think all this is a moo point and we'll everything will proceed as normal this season...
