Then Ambrosie is a useless...
A bit, yeah.
Thats why a lot of the garbage thrown his way is misplaced. Commissioners are just mouthpieces for the league they represent.

Anyone watching on TV and get a replay of the missed pass in the end zone? Was it dropped or did it get tipped?

I personally loved the Canada Day starts because I’m a teacher and it was just the best way to start the summer. Last day of school, CFL starts, it was a good time.

Well then, the hearing should take place within 2 weeks of the announcement the player has appealed. The way it is now, it could be months before it's done which makes the process more of a joke.
That's great, but it sounds like it's outside of his purview.

Absolutely is. He appealed and is allowed to play until the hearing.
I love smacking Randy when he’s down as much as the next guy, but there’s not much he can do here and he’s been very vocal that he doesn’t think Lemon should be able to play.

Yeah, try targeting an act that football fans might tune in to see and maybe some of those NFL only fans will enjoy the game and stick around.
And these football fans you speak of all listen to the same type of music? And that happens to be the music you listen to?

Nope. Because 1, it isn't based just on that, and 2, talent jumps off the page. Potential and talent level is the easiest fastest thing to recognize in sports if you have even a modest clue of what you are looking at. We had more guys who won champion ships at their previous stop, guys with more NFL games, more 5 star prospects, and more feldman freak list guys and types of guys this year then in the previous 3+ camps combined. We had a huge crop of guys that were on our NL for a year +. Having a single guy like adams who is an absolute NFL outlier of an athlete, the elite of the elite, is a rare thing up here. And we had multiple guys like that.
And he made the roster.
Yet here we are again. Hearing the complaints that the coaches are making the wrong choices.

I agree it's the best talent wise we have brought in as well...Thats from seeing practices, and watching techniques and physical ability, and also what they can actually do scheme wise
Pre-season games for most part are somewhat useless other than to get in game shape aerobically....Talent and smarts is evident without game action, especially when playing starts vrs scrubs...scrubs vrs scrubs....or when you have a talented guy with the scrubs...but no opportunity to show anything
I made my assesment for example of Garbutt and Fox from practice last yr already....and when some you'all got to actually see them against the #1's in the pr-season....the majority were all onboard...last yr was just attack me cause I had a Osh hate...and yeah...I did and do in a few regards...roster makeup...and use of talent regardless if they inferior as he likes to play the tenure card more times than not
I attack you because you say the same darn thing in every post you make. Sometimes 20-30 times per day.
In terms of roster management, I've been on board since day one; you just repeat it so often and sometimes way too far in that direction that I have to argue against it. And then you make personal attacks but then deny doing so. It's tiresome.

Such a dangerous thing to be writing off games. Its bad enough we do it at the end of the season. If we do it at the beginning we are cooked. Its a far cry from the days of Mos talking about wanting to get wins when ever we could.
The dynasty team we have has been taken for granted. We don't need to use the naturalized american, we don't need to get more than 4-5 snaps in a niche role out of a DI, we should start and play all the canadians and role guys like they are stars, just draft cover team guys and it'll be fine. It drives me insane. Especially after seeing the best group of defensive talent in a bomber TC ever.
You're not even allowing for the possibility that you may be slightly overvaluing guys you've seen for a handful of snaps across one or two of poorly televised pre-season games, eh?

Not my cup of tea but they'll bring eyes to the game.
Yup. Totally. I need to avoid falling into the old man trap of thinking it’s a bad get because it wasn’t what I was expecting.
Big name. Tons of hits. Should put on a great show for the TV and live audience.

U just assuming Kramdi is there...And even so...Cole took reps there last yr...I get it you think Kramdi is the bees knees...but Wilson..Gauthier...Cole trio where Gauthier is more situational and rotated in and out is far superior to Wilson in the middle...Cole at wil and Kramdi at SAM...unless averagely adequate with 2 out of position guys is your idea of ideaL
What is this a change from if not the starting positions from last year?

You've mentioned this a couple times recently. Let's maybe not say "loves to"... It happened once that we know of. We don't know if it was drink or smoke. No question he should be held to account and it absolutely doesn't FIT IN..... but let's not take it to the extreme of "Kenny Lawler is always drinking and driving" which is sort of implied here.
The FIFO thing has become somewhat of a marketing thing among a certain group of fans and now that it's popular, it isn't cool anymore... I get it.....
...But I still like that there's a code of conduct within the team which is seemingly self policed among the veterans/leaders. It doesn't mean there won't be mistakes made and guys slipping a bit... But I like knowing that guys are at least seemingly being held to account.
You can love the code of conduct and recognize that a player celebrating on the field has nothing to do with it.
1 hour ago, wbbfan said:Idk how it’s surprising that the same people who booed James wilder for getting 5 yards on 2nd and 10 then flexing do the same to Mitchell doing the exact same kind of thing. That type of action isn’t a strong fit in a good culture.
I’ll absolutely make fun of players who do crap like that, on my team or not, has nothing to do with culture though.

Why make 2 moves tho to cover 1 spot...Leave Wilson as is...Cole at Sam and plug Gauthier in Biggies spot for certain down and distance plays and freely rotate in one of Gemmel or Ayers for valuable reps and experience and see what they have and if they are heir apparent
I mean, that’s still 2 moves to cover one spot.

That would be so frustrating
That only makes the cut more likely.

Gonna be hearing a lot about that guy. A Dustin Byfuglien freak type player.
The way he’s being talked up around here makes me think he’s a guaranteed cut.

Nobody knows who is starting and who isn’t. Lots of people assume things on here based on what they want but last I checked, everyone on here is just a fan regardless of your background. We don’t know it all as much as some like to think.
We know that Cole, Moses, Petrishen are not getting the opportunity to play beside Wilson, Kramdi, Gauthier.
It's hard to say they're being given the opportunity to earn a roster spot when you're not even trying to look at players side by side.

It would be an anomaly for this particular preseason to have been used to evaluate a player. It seems more likely that Mitchell was determined very early to be the starter and Chris Smith and all the other were just filling up reps.
