August 25, 20214 yr I see him ending up in BC. I know they now have Jimmy โWhite Powerโ Camacho but they would drop him in a heart beat for Lirim. But would like to see him back here if we go with a 2 kicker system again.ย
August 25, 20214 yr speedflex relentless campaign against lirim has causedย me to be strongly in the "no" group on this. ย
August 25, 20214 yr If I was him I would put out a presser saying he wouldn't sign here just before he signed in BC
August 25, 20214 yr Actually cut by the Cowboys and yes he would be an improvement on what we currently have here
August 25, 20214 yr Would certainly be an upgrade... but based on how he left town, I could not see him wanting to play here again.

He had a lousy sophomore season in 2015, wasn't offered a contract extension,ย and signed with the Argonauts as a free agent. I don't think there's bad blood now, if ever.

August 25, 20214 yr Just now, Mark F said: so, to beย consistent, you dont mindย if a playerย wears a swastika? cause it was around before The Nazis. "Theย swastikaย symbol, ๅ (right-facingย orย clockwise) or ๅ (left-facing,ย counterclockwise, orย sauwastika), is an ancientย religious iconย in the cultures ofย Eurasia. It is used as a symbol of divinity and spirituality inย Indian religions, includingย Hinduism,ย Buddhismย andย Jainism." I do not know what the guy intended. It appeared he gave a symbol now usedย by fascists.ย I would like to know what he meant.ย Youn dont care,ย and that is fine with me. whatever it started as, it is now a symbol of white racism. ย just my preference, I would like my favourite football league to not have racists playing. You cant compare a swastika to the OK gesture. Thatsย reductio ad absurdum at its finest. By that level silliness the blue bombers, which are named for the brown bomber which was it self a racist nick name should change names.ย If you look for monsters in every shadow and bit of nuance you will find some thing to scare you. But that doesnt mean its real or a threat.ย

It may have been nothing lol.ย I did see it, however that symbol has multiple meanings now and context is important. People do use it to say "ok" it has been used to say "3 points" as well, most often in Basketball. AND it has been used by assholes who don't understand how unimportant skin color is. Not using it because of that last reason should not be an option as far as I'm concerned. And calling someone a ws after they used it AFTER they just scored 3 points is fairly ignorant. 1 hour ago, wbbfan said: That whole thing was a myth thats been busted 100 times over.

As I mentioned in the game chat and here. It likely wasnโt used in any hurtful way (I hope it wasnโt). It just looked extremely bad. Players these days get fined for the most ridiculous things. He didnโt do it after that and may have been warned by the coaching staff or it was just a one off thing.ย

Proud boys are half trollish them self. If you starve groups like that they go away. If you feed them they grow. Thats how it went from a silly trollish group of sheep to what it is. Allowing them to change and impact society is giving them far too much power.ย Thats a good point too. I see a ton of NBA players do it after nailing a 3.ย

August 26, 20214 yr Interesting take from SK kicker Brett Lauther. Basically, that the Globals are coming in and taking jobs from qualified Canadian kickers.

But if any thing the current jobs would be filled by IMP kickers and slowly they would be replaced by NI kickers. But even then I feel like the majority of elite kickers in the cfl tend to be IMPs.ย
August 26, 20214 yr He's going to be looking for work.....maybe we should.....I was not impressed with our last effort in the kicking dept....Not on the new kid but you'd think the other guy could kick a 3 pointer from the 25
