  1. How's about this, maybe the "report" (rumour) that he wanted to be out to be closer to home just means he wants to be closer to home?  Probably for a personal reason.

     

    Rather than creating your long list of his hypothetical personal failings.

     

    I know, it's a long standing tradition to denigrate players who are no longer here unless they leave under a very specific set of "acceptable" circumstances.  Very well, have at 'er.  I won't stand in your way any longer.

     

     

     

     

    I heard he eats puppies.

     

     

    Well if your last line is correct don't tell Cvets.  He frowns on that kind of thing and it could be called to the attention of the SPCA lol...Look I have my opinIon on the player.. you have yours...AND the knife cuts both ways when players leave an organization...There have been some damned hard knocks levelled at our team by some that have left...I'm sure Cory and all of us will all find our way..

  2. Yay, another post where I wonder if it's even worth replying.  Those are the best.

     

     

     

    IF the reports are true and Watson wanted out of here, it'll put a BIG asterisk beside his name for me, regarding his time here in the last little while. Makes me wonder about all the time he spent in the tub. Makes one play and is gonzo for a stretch. If that's the kind of player he is, glad he's with the riders.

     

    He re-signed with the Bombers twice - he had 2 opportunities to leave between the time we drafted him and now and did not.  Throttle back on the conspiracy theories.

     

     

    I guess you missed the little word IF reports are true. I'm not the one writing the bloody reports. Conspiracy...give me a break.?? It's there for you to read and you take it the way you want. Watson re-upped twice sure, but people change and so do circumstances. His latest comment about 'finally being with a 'winning' organization' (we'll see about that) says a lot. Couldn't make us a winner from the tub so things are going to be dif. We'll see.

     

     

    Well, conspiracy seemed more polite than lunacy, so I went with that one.  Because I try to be polite.  I realized the usage was incorrect, as a conspiracy requires more than one person.  It was meant to be taken more figurative than literal.

     

    IF the reports he wanted out of here are true, then the conclusion you can draw is that he wanted out of here.

     

    as opposed to putting a big asterix by his name, or

     

    spending time thinking about Cory Watson in the tub - to each their own -, or

     

    insinuating he's faking/milking injuries, or

     

    implying he has a character issue.

     

     

    Putting IF in front of slander does not make it something else.

     

    Because, no offence, (insert something incredibly offensive here).  See how that (doesn't) works?

     

     

        lots of bafflegab there  lol...Look 'IF' is a little word with a big meaning...you use it in your context...I'll use it in mine...Inferring that someone would be a 'lunatic' for expressing their opinion  is a tad denigrating ...Slander my aunt fanny...Make that one stand up in court...you lose..Someone said you like to be a little 'catty'...I'll go with that.. lol

    I do believe that pretty much anyone can sign up and edit Wikipedia. It sometimes goes through an approval process if you are new or not known.

    That is the whole point of Wikipedia, is it is kept up to date by the community at large.

    ...Who has the 'official' draft order...I'm confused like Mike....What are our pics.????

    It's now 2, 11, 15, then nothing in the 3rd.

     

     

    Damn....I thought we were really going to load up. Guess we shouldn't be too greedy but it's been a long time since we could say our cupboards were full. 2, 11 and 15 should net us some excellent talent.

  4. ....granted 'joining a winning org.' is a little different...Inserting the word 'finally' gives it a dif. connotation ...According to Pedersen he did say he was 'glad to be joining a winning org.'  Guess he wasn't happy here , obviously, if you believe he requested a trade. Putting it a dif .way How long was he unhappy here, if that's the case and did it affect his play. One has to wonder.

  6. Watson just spent too much time on the sidelines. You could never count on him from game to game, and there was just too much cash tied up in him.  Rider fans seemed to like this Bastien kid, although it was just potential they were talking about. I guess we will realize it now, potential that is. I also feel we will not go o line in the first round. Demski maybe??? Guess we'll find out in 12 days. C'mon over Mr. Heenan...like it.

  7. So Foley is an Argonut once again. Probably doesn't mind the trade, although I don't think he's any better off. Going from the rabid fans in Regina and a lot of rah rah, to back playing in the ghostly silence of the 'Mall' called skydump. He might have preferred making his own choice by waiting till fa but I guess Taman schmoozed him into signing, so he could pull the pin on the trade. Such is the world of football sometimes.

  8. Gonna miss those hard licks he handed out. He sure kept the oppositions offence honest. Some fans were saying he was a 'tweener' and wouldn't last long down there BUT a hard hitting guy like he is should position up somewhere in the nfl. Most likely special teams. Good luck to him and hope he makes lots of coin. IF he doesn't stick, the door is always wide open for him in the Peg.

  9. With regard to Heenan signing here...He works a farm in Sask. and is very family oriented. Moving one province over would be an advantage, other than living in Sask. itself.  Seeing as Cal. will most likely not be in the running for an o lineman, we will be certainly a consideration. I think if Heenan doesn't make it in the nfl and Walters can come up with the right cash, I can see Ben being very interested in signing here.  We shall see in about 19 days.

  10. B.C. definitely would've been in the market for him IF he was an fa. They would have had to trade to get Tate in any event. Lulay is an uncertain and quite frankly another hit on that injured shoulder and it's all over. Nobody at their no 2  unless Tedford has something in is back pocket. The leos are in a world of hurt at the most important position on the field. Could see them going after Brohm.

  11. Stamps is no SJ Green for starters and coupled with the loss of Carter, don't kid yourself Als. are hurting in the receivers dept. Stamps is nearing the end of his career but is still a competent receiver. However Crompton needs more than just competent. That great o line of the Als. can only keep this guy upright for so long while he searches for an SJ or Carter who won't be there. They could still pick up a good receiver in fa. but even then they'll be hard pressed to stay on top in the east. I see a big turn down in Poppville.

  12. Glad we have both on the club. Solid receivers with good hands. Both are young and neither one of them have reached their true potential. It's a saw-off as far as I'm concerned but this year could see one of them jump ahead. I hope we give each player equal playing time to make a better call. We'll see.
