Let's watch football and eat nachos and drink beer

The name Lawler is suspiciously close to the word lawyer. Could that be related?

Duke Williams

FansFirst is awesome, this is great news

Wild coincidence that it cleared up just in time for training camp to end

It's honestly bizarre to me. Bringing in so few LB prospects and playing Maruo so much is indefensible. It's hard to complain too much when our leadership is so successful but it really feels like they are losing their edge this year. I liked the comment earlier in this thread about Wally Buono cutting players at this point in their careers and we haven't seen O'Shea cut one of "his guys" in awhile. Coming off a 15-3 season it's impossible not to predict a regression but the question is whether this is a 12-6 team or a 9-9 team. Injuries will play a role.

I share some of the same worries and I think there's some validity to it. O'Shea has a veteran bias but I personally still trust him to make the right call. The LB recruitment crop was weak. Cole and Clements aren't good enough. We know this. Couple this with Bighill being old and unable to practice and we have some trouble in the LB corps. Yes Biggie is a vet but he needs to practice. Briggs isn't a starter. I do really like Gauthier however. The DL should be fine. I have no concerns with Jefferson and Jeffcoat. Ricky Walker deserves a shot at starting but Caleb Thomas is right there ready to take his spot. I look at that as a scouting win. Haba won the 3rd DE spot and I have no reason to hate on that. He came in late and played well. He won the job we all knew was available. One spot I echo some concerns is with the RB situation. I don't like that Oliveira already gets the country club treatment in camp and Augustine clearly isn't a starter so we have some weakness there. In some ways I feel like we're dictating our rosters based on Andrew Harris being our RB but we could let go...there are options in that spot. Overall I look at our roster and see a dominant lineup. The OL is strong unless Bryant and Neufeld really fall off a cliff. The receiving corps is dynamite. I'm not sold on BOLO yet but as a backup Canadian he is well above average. The defence is going to have trouble getting off the field when Willie and Jeffcoat can't get to the QB but I'm feeling pretty good about the roster.

Piggy got game

He certainly looks poised out there

Did the CFL just totally give up on their app and website? We can't we get stats for these preseason games...?

Young OL holding their own so far

Best I can do at the last minute for fellow depth chart junkies

Did anyone catch who is starting on the OL? Sounded like DT said its Dobson at Centre and Adamson at Right Guard. I hope those boys are ready!

I'll take LL Cool J over the TSN house country band. I wonder what song we will be blessed with hearing 50 times a game this year?

Actually it said 3-4 weeks.

Never left Regina his whole life. That's incredible to me.

I heard they're being replaced by ChatGPT.... Higher quality!

Lots of "injured" vets right now who just don't want to practice.

Feels like the coaching staff are getting a little cocky thinking all our mid-30s veterans can beat every other team without ever practicing

NDP name carries too much baggage. It's hopeless for them in AB as long as there is one united conservative party. NDP is known nationally as the far-left party. Even if the provincial NDP in AB lean further right than the national NDP, it's tough for them to shake the association. I'm not sure what their answer should be. The Liberal name is even more toxic in AB. Maybe they need to start a brand new party made up of current NDP members and more traditional conservatives.

One Great City has probably the best food out of any brewery. Like, legitimately excellent food. Get the meatballs. Their beers are okay, I like the Queen's Best Bitter and the Mad Scientist IPA.

Cornelius is exactly the kinda guy we would have had here in 2013. Big time Brink/Goltz vibe.

Definitely wasn't sold on Holm last year. Sounds like he has stepped up his game in camp but we'll see. Maybe I can get out to a session.
