BC at Edmonton

3 Areas To Watch

Number 2 Pivot: Who Steps Up?

BC - Ricky Lloyd and first-year Leos Austin Apodaca and Cole Sears will handle the quarterback reps in hopes of getting a leg up on sticking behind Reilly on the depth chart. 

Edmonton- Danny O’Brian, Logan Kilgore, Briscoe.

- One big observation in the first week of camp is the depth at receiver. Standouts at the position have included Joey Augustin, Marquis Bundy and Mexican additions Fernando Richarte and Gerardo Alvarez. All CFL clubs are required to keep one global player on their roster beyond training camp.

- Defensive Line: Calling On Another Bookend

With Odell Willis having another strong showing in camp, the big question remains who will line up as the other bookend.

- Linebacker Adam Konar gets to battle some of his own teammates after he was cut loose and quickly picked up by the Lions on day one of camp. He’ll start at MLB

Anything any team gives up is too much for that scrub. 

Losing Wilder is the least of the Argo problems. Running backs, even good ones are not that rare.

https://press.cfl.ca/statement-cfl-and-cflpa-meet-to-discuss-weather-protocol

TORONTO (August 16, 2019) – The Canadian Football League (CFL) and the Canadian Football League Players’ Association (CFLPA) met to discuss the new weather protocol that was put into effect when an electrical storm forced a delay and, ultimately, the stoppage of last weekend’s Montreal- Saskatchewan game. We agreed the result of the game was the proper outcome according to the protocol, which is part of our new collective bargaining agreement.

However, the CFL fully acknowledged that communication with the players association should have been better during the process, and those communication issues were fully discussed and resolved between the parties.  

Finally, we discussed whether we should now revisit and possibly amend the protocol. It was agreed that the most prudent course of action is to assemble all the relevant stakeholders — team and league executives, players association representatives, general managers, coaches and officials - in the off-season to reassess the protocol. Therefore, no change to the protocol is anticipated for the remainder of the 2019 season.

Chappy ought to be nervous. I always like to see familiar players entering the coaching ranks, I wish Crompton the best in trying to turn that clunker of a ship around.

This may sound odd, but I liked Straight outta Crompton when he played. He lacked physical gifts it seemed but he was smart and got the most out of what he had. I have a feeling he will do well in this job

If I was the Ti-Cats I would try to get him. Put him behind their line could be pretty good.

Cam Marshall played great Saturday.

He had that long hair that looked like a mop. I read he was growing it out so it could get cut to make a wig for cancer patients. High character thing to do

Had a mean mullet myself in the 80's.  Hockey hair.  

Bah Humbug, All you kids with hair. When I shave my head I have to rub it to see if I got it all.  

I like to say that I'm solar powered... hair is a pain and wish I didn't even have to shave it.

After leaving my office job in 2015 I decided to grow my hair out for cancer care. One last hurrah before it all falls out. Kept it going without so much as a trim til December 2018. In the end it was enough for 2 donations!

Had hair that went down to my shoulders, complete with headband.    Smoked imported brands, as well....

played tennis in short white tight shorts too I assume??..........
