Captain Blue

Does anyone actually have a problem with this move? Seems pretty much like we got a player Hamilton didn't want anymore and paid them a reasonable price for that (ie. near nothing).

Toronto really doesn't seem good at all. And Ray is masking some of their problems. I do think Burke will get the D fixed eventually though.

I can't read past the title. Hell no.

Did they announce Smith starting yet?

I think the Als will look very good tonight. Should be a close game.

I know he's punting for direction, but the goal is direction and some length, usually, depending on where you are on the field. Right now he's not getting either of those two consistently. We get one or the other, sometimes neither.

I don't think Renaud is very good. They always say he shines in camp but then in the games he's inconsistent.

I've watched the game twice now and I really, really think Grigsby is doing some good things...he's also getting a boost from the system. He's good in space, faster than I expected and overall I would call him a good back. But he gets taken down easily (I think the spin move is so noticeable that it sticks in the memory easily) and his blocking is atrocious. He will identify the man but then get absolutely smashed and taken back. Once they started attacking this weakness the offense started to stall.

Is Masoli looking better than Collaros? I didn't get to see the latter play.

Can't see anyone getting fired as a head coach in season. MAYBE Higgins if they really were to fall apart, only because I think Montreal doesn't really know what they want to do. I would wager we will see an OC fired though in season.

I just tuned in a little while ago after getting home. I continually think the West will have a crossover team- IF they don't all kill each other.

Grigsby is a bad blocker and I still would like to see Cotton in.

Agreed... however anything with Jon Benjamin can pretty much be labelled "hipster" Really? The dude is freaking funny. How are we defining hipster? Archer is fantastic, cartoon or not. Community, Archer, AD, 30 Rock...all shows that are "smart-funny" and not laugh-tracked crap.

I am pretty excited for tonight. If memory serves, we were the first team to lose to the Renegades so I'm hoping history doesn't repeat itself here. Dave Ritchie said you didn't want to be the answer to that trivia question.

So basically, what I've learned is that you don't like humour...

Arrested Development is better, I wouldn't be able to pick a winner between 30 Rock and Modern Family.

Ottawa will be competitive tomorrow because they've got a good QB, and I actually expect their defense to look a little better than Toronto's. I would be surprised if this was an easy victory. Then again, I don't mean to brag, but the Bombers are 1-0 when I'm in attendance this year so maybe I just have that effect...

Sucks for us, but I don't blame him. Turner has been nothing but a good employee on and off the field for us. This is more important than football.

So much Buono love...can we just get rid of this crappy meme that Buono can't be questioned? There's no doubt that he's one of the greatest coaches of all-time, perhaps even the best, and his track record of evaluating talent is superb. Still, everybody makes mistakes, Buono included. His team has their own set of flaws to deal with just like any other team.

I'm interested to see how this plays out in the locker room. Banks helped recruit guys like Nick Moore.

If Banks was serious about what he's said, he would have accepted a lesser role here to help the team win. As an injury replacement he could have been valuable. They clearly don't feel he's on board with that and he doesn't sound like he is.

Definitely a mistake by Walters, but you know what, at least he admitted it and moved on quick. Fix the locker room and maintain it. That was a huge project after last season. It's unfortunate it came to this, but I'm stoked so see O'Shea remodel the team psyche.

I wish we were in the East...

I still am hoping for Etienne.
