This might be a year when all teams in league are within 3-4 wins of each other

Pat White signed a contract should be in camp

But they would be getting no value for one of the top picks in the expansion draft. They could haves had a excellent player in the lineup instead they have a disgruntled guy who does not want to be there.

I hope Glenn does not report to Ottawa make them release him.

He is an import

Apparently the defensive coaches meet 8-8 every day.

I can't wait to see it work. Just have to get the right guys in the right spots.

If you like stories for guys from now to back in the day check out the Steve Austin podcast. Some great stuff does a real good job of just shooting the breeze with guys from all generations.

Funny how the wrestlers and football players from that late 80 to 90's period have the same struggles in life.

Since you have not followed the team for long and how the offseason/ end of last season progressed, it might be easy to say not to name the starter this far out. So knowing what went on its not hard to question that Willy will be the starter. Firstly was rolled into town as a prized acquisition. The plan from the start of the offseason was to bring in one of three guys (Willy, Zach Coloras or Henry Burris). Willy was the one that they got. From the moment they traded for him it was pretty much in stone he was the starter. Willy has also seen the field and had preformed well in his time in Saskatchewan. Also come highly regarded from his past college coach Danny Barrett who was a very good CFL quarterback. Also the assistant GM who is a hall of fame quarterback in league really likes the kid. Plus we have spent the last 3 years with quarterbacks starting with very limited CFL experience, four to be exact, with disastrous results. Hopefully that gives you little background why he was anointed the starter.

The thing about it its not the NFL. You need time to get acquainted with the CFL game usually two to three years. Have seen two many talent guys come up here and not be able to account for the 12th guy on the field and destroy there confidence with two or three starts.

We have done the rush the quarterback to the starters roll. Need to give a guy two to three years to develop. Having said that Willy has his two years its time to show that he is a starter. I don't see the kid the failing, he is ready to be the guy.

People see the talk and the antics on the field but when he was with the Bengals he was one of the hardest workers on the team. At the facility long before many of his teammates and there long after.

I would think there are very few if anyin the Winnipeg media that pay attention to CIS that they could say whether a player is a good pick or not.

Did Tad Kornegay play the rover roll in Saskatchewan

Really like he is trying to say not that he does not have a playbook but its so different that you not recognize it as a playbook. I'll say this usually the first person to do something different in football is often given the crazy. Tom Landry and Bill Walsh were look down upon when they came up with systems that changed football forever.

If Austin Coleman can catch and learn the waggle could be a very dangerous guy in the slot.

It still looks like my seat is high and dry

At least they have two really high end prospects coming up with Hellebuyke and Comrie

Got to love a election year. Let the finger pointing begin.

90% of goalies can put two good games back to back. The only true test is 60-70 games over a season. He probably needs a season in St. John just get used to being the main man. Might be tough with all the good goalie prospect that the Jets have to get enough time for all of them.

My seat looks dry

Would they not have noticed water getting last year. I know the building was not totally finished but would of been to the point where they could of seen water enter it. Probably not a issue in a normal weather year.

Hogan and Hogue make the team pure pandemonium

Here is a great article from San Fransisco Gate from 2011 when Wylie was in Oakland http://www.sfgate.com/raiders/tafur/article/Raiders-coach-Bob-Wylie-boosts-offensive-line-2328642.php#page-2
