Brandon Posted August 24, 2022 Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 Yeesh why are we caring about our kicker when tomorrow we will be putting up nothing but TD's against that weak Calgary secondary?

My only fear is getting home after; now that we moved more than twice as far away from the stadium as we were. Friday morning is going to suck after not getting home until close to 1am.

SpeedFlex27 Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 13 hours ago, JuranBoldenRules said: Yeah because the previous career long of 52 he set as a rookie was nothing. It's not one game of misadventures. He lost the job last year because he wasn't reliable on converts and he's missed 4 of those this year with overall consistent struggles in that 30-40 range, and has no range to 50. He's the best we have right now, and for me he's well down the list of reasons why the last game was lost, but to suggest that position couldn't be upgraded is to distort reality. Nope. He career long was multiple 52 yarders back to his rookie year. I think the very first kick he ever made was 52 yards. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A word of advice: When living in Winnipeg Beach and had to travel to Winnipeg during the time when the lake was not fully frozen and lake effect was dumping snow onto the west side of the lake, highway 8 was usually less snow/ice covered. And there is a decent auto repair shop in Clandeboye. GCJenks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I need car work done out here I will see Terry at the Petersfield Garage, but I appreciate the input. Always good to know who's in the 'hood.

He’s not coming to the cfl for top kicker pay. And bringing in a guy like that is a death blow to a younger guy that’s been doing the job. you do not mess with kickers heads.

We're on road 90 north My wife's family built one of the original cottages on Grand Circle and we had hoped to build a year round place on that lot. Unfortunately it was too flood prone and the cost of mitigation made it not feasible. We always knew we would be here sometime but figured it wouldn't be until retirement. With the pandemic and more companies being open to WFH we've been able to make it a reality now. We weren't seriously looking but the right place came up and here we are. Very thankful and lucky that we were able to pull it off, buying this one, selling ours, moving and surrendering possession of ours all in under 8 weeks.
