sweep the leg

why do you get 2 points on a safety? Why 3 when you kick the ball through the uprights? Why 6 when you advance the ball into the endzone? Because it's in the rules that's why. You shouldn't get a point for missing a field goal, but yes a rule is a rule. It's not a point for missing a field goal, it a point for kicking a ball into the endzone and preventing the other team from returning it out of the endzone. A prize for mitigating your failure to kick the fg. I can buy the idea of the point being incentive to make a return, but they should take away the point for having the ball roll through the endzone. Why is there a point for kicking through the endzone on a punt or fg attempt, but not for a kickoff? Weird...

If that's all there is to this, this is a pretty uninspired story. A 3rd stringer wants a chance for more playing time? Scandalous...

Where did this come from?

It sounded like Rodney Lamar had himself a good game. As a mlb, he's probably fighting for a pr spot. I can't see us DI'ing a lb with so many good Canadians there, and I don't think he'll get the starting job over Hurl. I think we can probably pencil in Marshall as one of our two rbs on the 44. Anderson vs. Cotton will be interesting to watch for the rest of camp and the next preseason game. Cotton's ball security issues need to be fixed. Randle sounded terrible in the return game and did nothing running the ball. Couple that with being hurt for part of camp and he's probably behind those two guys now. Marve doesn't look pretty out there, but he still seems to be able to put points on the board. Brohm got us in scoring position three times, but needs to get it in the endzone. Based on last night I wouldn't change the qb depth chart. Pleasantly surprised last night wasn't a series of crushing sacks on our qbs. Sounded like our backups on the OL acquitted themselves pretty well.

Agreed. Good decision to leave the vets behind to allow these guys max opportunities to show what they've got.

Ideally Willy will score on his first drive and then they'll sit him.

This screams of an attempt to get himself attention.

Mattt Beleskey will be this offseason's Bryan Bickell. He's going to turn one good season into a bad contract for whomever signs him.

In his presser, O'Shea noted Westerman, Derrell Johnson, Shaquille Richardson, Darvin Adams, Jhomo Gordon, & Chungh as news guys who have stood out so far. I've heard him single out Johnson once or twice before today. We might have something in this guy.

Do it or you're dead to me.

If you guys want to cover my daily pay, I'll skip work and watch camp.

Sometimes jokes get overplayed around here...

This is the first he's been mentioned since he got here. From most accounts, it sounds like Marshall is going to be our "thunder" rb.

Darrin Bauming ‏@DarrinBauming 2m2 minutes ago #Bombers not dressed for practice this morning: M.Leggett, Z.Anderson, S.Brown, W.Wright, A.Richards, and Dan West is missing his third day.

I can't.

Bust

The Riders just traded Watson & a 2nd rounder for a 3rd and a long snapper. I like the price we paid better...

Most boring wrestler (in ring) of all time. He'd get a guy in a headlock and hold it for five minutes. Could of sworn that I used the word "listen"........ Have you been lead to believe that you didn't? I saw a comment on Nick Bockwinkle, so I quoted that post to give my opinion on the entertainment value of his matches.

Actually it sounds like the games will be on TSN1290, not CJOB... So.... So they're not just kicking Bomber fans in the nuts, they're also giving it to their radio rights holder. I'm a little surprised they're allowed to do that.

This makes a lot of sense. He's got an "IF THEY DON'T DO THIS RIGHT NOW MY HEAD WILL EXPLODE" way of sharing his ideas for the team.

Randle at sam is pretty interesting.

QB - Willy RB - Cotton REC - Denmark, Moore, Kohlert*, JFG*, Adams OL - Bryant, Greaves*, Picard*, Neufeld*, Dile DL - Westerman*, Turner, Anderson, Johnson LB - Hurl* (WIL), Allen (MAC), Unamba (SAM) DB - Jones*, Washington, Adams, Randle S - Leggett

The discussion was about how stupid your comment was. If that's what you were going for it worked.
