Even to this day as a broadcaster he still remains the same. Watching a game he was doing the color on, think the RedBlacks were marching down the field and he placed more emphasis on a field goal than on a touchdown. No killer instinct.

Yup very hard to watch when a third string inexperienced rookie has the time to comfortably go thru his reads.

I was just about getting over this then Arbuckle shows up.

I think the bigger question I have is what needs to happen (other than injury, rest, game already decided) for MOS and his coaching staff to substitute a starter for a dressed depth player? I'd enjoy hearing the real answers because it will vary per position, per player, per junction in the game/season. I'm assuming head coaches and their coordinators will have similarities in their approaches but also have their own unique and different nuances and philosophies.

Right which emphasizes the need for some game reps obviously with some thought before doling them out. There is a risk of course, i.e., player crapping the bed when their number is called ergo confidence hit but that's what it's all about, that's how one grows, develops not just in sport but in life generally.

Thanks for that memory Debbie.

Practice speed to game speed not even close.

Dillion Mitchell, your time to shine. (please?)

Nine games in (1/2 the season), six defensive tackles divided by X amount of reps = Jake hate?

JT starting NT? Sure, why not. At this point it's just a big FU to anyone who thinks he should not be on the field.

When it comes to Chad Kelly I think it’s more who cares?

Show him clips of how AC played and do that. 🙂

Okay, well, a wellness check-in is in order then.

Sort of just summarized a lot of us internet sport users. 🙂

Back in the day third string QB usually meant in the wings to be moved up the ranks not short yardage specialist and no more. If this is true Terry Wilson needs to be released. We have Strev for short yardage so there’s absolutely no reason to keep him around if there is no confidence in him to play in this league.

First rock concert I ever attended when I was quite young was Ozzy Osbourne. My older brother won tickets thru a radio station and he took me for some reason. 6th row centre. There I was not knowing what was really going on just mesmerized doing alot of people watching in a very loud environment smelling of skunk when all of a sudden the drummer decided to throw one of his drum sticks into the crowd that came directly at me. It all seemed like slow motion as a watched this drum stick arc directly towards me then finding myself on the bottom of a pile of people wanting this drum stick more than me (narrators voice: he didn’t want the stick). I remember my ears ringing loudly for days/weeks after the concert. Good times, RIP Double O.

Pure speculation on my part but that’s the beauty of a discussion board, the reason Mitchell isn’t being put on the active roster is MOS and company believe that would send the wrong message to the team if they activated him that is put a player on the field with problem with work ethic, not grasping the playbook etc but in the same breath there a few active players consistently not producing at a level expected but continue to get a free pass and play cuz they earned it.

That’s not like you. Okay I’ll head out.

I'm hoping 15 to 35 year olds read Crankshaft to alert them to the CFL 🙂

BO, SC and EH would be my three.

Pretty please with a cherry on top no? Yup something I noticed as well. No fight, no spark when adversity hits.

Great that means more player interviews with CF, ugh.

Yup they were great at unclamping all night.

That’d be a shame said no one ever except for @bluto

Yup it’s like here you want extra steamboats? Coming up.
