  1. I didn't say we should hire Barker to replace Walters. I'd like to have them both here.
  2. I'd like to see Barker come in as a player personnel guy. Ass't gm, scout, whatever you want to call him.
  3. I think there will be lots of short passes b/c Nichols probably won't have enough time for longer developing routes. I don't think it's carved in stone yet that Hardrick is starting.
  4. Connor Scheifele Wheeler Ehlers Roslovic Laine Perreault Little Vesalainen Copp Lowry Tanev Morrissey Trouba Niku Buff Kulikov Myers I think it could be any of Niku, Chiarot, Morrow, or Poolman in the spot I put Niku. That's the most interesting position battle imo. I guess Vesalainen too, if the Jets aren't comfortable putting him in the NHL immediately. Otherwise, I think the roster is pretty much set.
  5. But he did play well for over two years prior to this skid. It's not unreasonable for a coach to let his starter try to play himself out of it.
  6. edit: beaten to headline. Contract sounds pretty fair for both sides.
  7. You're on the wrong forum if you think that's a clever response.
  8. I'd take that bet. I'd put the odds of Lapo losing play calling duties after the next game somewhere around 0%.
  9. This doesn't seem like good news... CBC British Columbia‏Verified account @cbcnewsbc In a stunning blow, the Federal Court of Appeals has quashed the government's approvals to build the Trans Mountain expansion project handing a major victory to Indigenous groups and environmentalists opposed to the $7.4 billion project. #TransMountain
  10. Rivers played a few games with the Esks, so he should understand the CFL game. Unless that's why he got cut from Edmonton...
  11. Jeff Hamilton‏ @jeffkhamilton #Bombers HC Mike O'Shea says OL Jermarcus Hardrick and DE Jackson Jeffcoat are doubtful for #Riders game this weekend. #wfp Losing Jeffcoat would be a big kick in the pants.
  12. Gord Barnsley‏ @WinnipegGordo 2m2 minutes ago At #Bombers practice and Dressler isn't practicing. He seems to be running around pretty good however. Washington is currently on first teams.
  13. I do to. He just didn't word it very well.
  14. I'm thinking stupid penalties are what could potentially have him in the doghouse. He's taken a few of them this season.
  15. That was always my grandpas argument. "They shouldn't have done it if they didn't want it back". Edit: His brother was a pow for years after being sent to Hong Kong to fight, so he also had little sympathy for the fire bombing and a-bomb dropped on Japan.
  16. On a different topic, this can't be good new for the Conservatives. More vote splitting. Sean Craig‏Verified account @sdbcraig 98,5 Montreal's Bernard Drainville reports Maxime Bernier is "more and more likely" to leave the Conservatives and form his own new political party.
  17. I've read a few books and articles about how the German population's ignorance of the holocaust was overstated. I had a book about it, but can't remember what it was called. Regardless, there are a lot of good articles about it. Definitely an interesting discussion topic. Nothing done by the allies merits equivalence to the holocaust. Civilian bombing is probably the biggest one mentioned (by some) that was part of the war strategy. My grandpa flew in a Lancaster during the war, and he'd fight anybody who even hinted that the bombing campaign over Germany was unjust.
  18. Then again, maybe he is... Duane Forde‏Verified account @DuaneFordeTSN 1m1 minute ago Sources suggest that's the Toronto Argonauts have emerged as the frontrunner to sign free agent WR Duron Carter.
  19. Unless I missed Carter's signing in TO, Trestman's interest in him seems to have been overstated.
  20. Lol, that's an interesting take on the situation.
  21. Defense took a few terrible penalties after 2nd down stops, and it seemed to open the floodgates. I think they ended up scoring every time we did that.
  22. Do you have any thoughts you'd like to share to back this comment up? Two of the players you noted weren't here last season. Two are still here. Denmark averaged 33 yds/gm and JFG and Wolitarsky are more or less a saw off. Where is this big drop off coming from?
  23. We've scored more points and given up fewer in the same number of games, with similar schedules. They've already played Mtl twice.
  24. Your first game against Hamilton counts as one. You won't see many teams get outplayed worse than that and still come away with two points.
