Jesus, if anyone actually debates that...

how about chalking it up to adjusting and learning what toronto was doing? at the end of.the day that "dreadful" half was half of the second.best offensive output in the last 2 seasons, best of this years... id prefer to look at it that way..

There's no film on Smith so the Ticats were a little vulnerable with how they could scheme for him. They made some adjustments at half and he wasn't near as effective and ended the game with a less than 50% completion.
He has promise, but calling him the "real deal" is a bit of a stretch after only one productive half.

The scariest thing is, that since Kevin Glenn was cut the highest quality of QB play we've gotten is Steven Jyles in 2010. 

im actually impressed he has made 2 tackles lol.

haha the tate cornish bitchfest just cemented me in the "dont sign premadonna tate" club..
bc making a game of this at least..

Could easily make the argument that Foster has flatlined and Etienne is the one with upside... but I'd rather run headfirst into a wall than attempt to argue with you so we'll just leave it at that.

oh the outcry of the armchair GMS.. the anguish and the rage..
a guy who is 24 and locked up for 3 years who can play tackle and maybe other spots on the line with a bit of footwork training... seems to me that in itself is normally a player picked in the second round IF your lucky and IF the player isnt a bust...
so we took the gamble out of drafting one oline prospect.. cost was the services of the league leading sack master for a few games and got a 4th rounder down the road...
i simply dont get the outrage.. hall is as good as gone and i think he sticks for a season down south.. and like mentioned before, whos to say we dont get him back if our fortunes have changed by then?
and if this is all about that second round pick then like i said before, we would be lucky to draft a kid like neufeld at that pick (regardless that he went in the 5th) and hes ahead of.the curve with all those games played..

Wonder what attendance estimates they are using for the remaining games because the ticket sales are going to be less and the butt in seats even worse.
 
Better knock 700k + off their estimate.   Add in paying off a bunch of salaries.......  Ya, its all good.  

possibly but look at it this way... they now know us, are familiar with us.and if they don't land NFL gigs, we are probably their first choice as a) we showed interest and we were willing to say "hey, no hard feelings we understand.."
I think it's a good concept, if they are good enough to get some NFL interest simply by showing up here... must be worth something skill wise... even if it means a bunch of activity on the roster that undoubtedly will cause panic amongst the quick to judge crowd. (present company excluded of course)

The idiocy of this fan base is astounding.

anyone who thought the crowd was cheering.for.bc.buck (fans and players alike) are complete morons... they were cheering for warrior buck, community buck,.a.guy that fought and bled for us..
glad they cheered for him, guy deserved it..

They weren't "cheering for the opposing QB." They were cheering for a really good, classy guy who loves WPG who was just traded from our gong show of a team 2 weeks ago.
 
Its not like they were giving fricken Darian Durant a standing o. 

this thread started out great... now.... your all reaching and it shows..
step it up or hang em up!

guys with that much experience and some physical skills get cut and not picked up when there's a new team coming in and suddenly the marginal NIs have so much increased value just based on the increase in new jobs? No I don't think so. 

Is it not absolutely pathetic that a Canadian defensive lineman performed better on our line than our starting IMPORT tackle?

Best way to show him he should have come here is to pound him into the turf. Repeatedly. With gusto. 

Same old same old, just re-hashing for today's game.
 
But...he goes on to project stats for Goltz to equal the amount of games played...and that's just plain ridiculous.
No way you can do that. Once and awhile I have to wonder about Penton, and this is one of those times.

I understand now.  My opinion is different than yours so its easy to dismiss my point because I am "hanging off Buck's nuts".  Thats how people without a point to make try to make points.  I'm not disputing the validity of Buck as a starter or not.  My point is that Buck did not harm the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.  It's not a situation where we should be happy to rid ourselves of some terrible person who was maliciously harming the franchise.  If anything, mack was far more of a negative presence.  Buck showed up and did his job to the best of his ability and health.  Period.  He did nothing negative to the team.
 
I'd also argue strongly that Buono gladly took him because he recognizes that Buck has the ability to me an emergency fill in if needed.  Buono looks at the Bombers and likely puts more onus on a TERRIBLE O-line and TERRIBLE O.C. than he does in Buck's inability to play the QB position.  Buck was decent in 2011.  What changed in 2012 and this year?  Worse OC, worse Oline.  Upheavel.  etc.

Wally had him third string for a reason.
 
Wally had him not playing a down for a reason.
 
Wally had him released for a reason.
 
Can we just not put this ******* conversation to bed.
 
You don't want Sask's 3rd string castoff and the rest of us don't want BC's 3rd string castoff.

Yeah.
 
That would be like harping about how good someone is when they are 3rd string for the Lions...........

7 footers man...real Goliaths.  They'll be signing autographs on SJ Green's head 

you haven't noticed what the point is with every post? Everything he posts is trolltastic. 

no, hes been told not to talk about bucks "injury" and said hes starting due to max not being 100%.. you misplace your spectacles again?
