  • Fun to sit and watch practice today... Been about 20 years since I was last able. With respect to the late great Randy Turner, the king of Odds and Sods writing.... here's some thoughts: -Al

  • Just to speak to Wolitarsky’s character and just what a good dude he is … few years back, some friends and I went to go see him play at Earl’s on Main and we ended up chatting with him and Streveler …

    Really easy to always say that there's some mystical coach out there that would be a better fit.  We've been through generations as CFL fans watching teams including our own who keep believing that.

Can we assume that we are moving on from Alexander?

Easy to go through the All-CFL team and say, "I want him, him and him", harder to make room in the budget to do so.

Grey Cup hosting year... What Budget? What's a cap?

minus Schoen and lawler, i really don’t think there’s much else there. Ford and Dobson yes but nfl and $$$$$$. Think we see some legit change through free agency and prospects. 

Nick Taylor is signed no?

I’m not sure with him.

The drunken sailor approach. I dig it.

Hodge didn't have him on his list but he is a pending free agent according to the list the Bombers provided. CFL.ca shows Taylor as a pending FA.

With Osh, never assume anything.

I wish they'd have drunkely started spending by going after Oromilade. he would have solved mor than a few problems on our DL.

I say Brickman. 

Don't put that out there! Dog-gone-it. He seems to be a bit under the radar for what passes for CFL press/commentariat types.

I have Brink as very high priority because I see him as a one-off in our league. Nobody does what he does. Ceresna may be the best at what he does, but can we find another 3-tech? Yes. Can we find a purer Nose than Brink? I genuinely don't think such a player existed in the league last season.

He's a starter, they're all starters.

He is indeed one of a kind, albeit a bit injury-prone. I imagine Argos know they can bring back only one of those two (Brinkman and Ceresna). Both are gonna get paid, just like Hendrix did last year.

........as a coach........i hope......

Ya... Listen... I defend our management to the death.... But I can't defend this. It's inexcusable. Even if you say that Lawson is going to take the bulk of the reps or whatever....what's the point of even bringing him to camp at this point? It's a waste of roster spot and if there was even a penny of guaranteed money, then it's a waste.

Doesn't make me mad (as Mike said)... but just really makes shakes my head.... I do not understand for the life of me what they see in him at this point in his career.... the team was ready to move from him when he was like 28... then he had a few good rotational seasons in him... and he's been just a waste of space for the past 2-3 seasons... I don't get it.... can't convince me a rotation of Lawson and Samson wouldn't be a significant improvement?

Honestly, you can really sell me on the move IF a few things change. The problem is, I don’t believe even a single one of these would ever be true, nevermind all of them.

IF he’s a gameday backup to Lawson only, IF he takes maybe 20% of the reps he did last year, IF we adjust our ratio for a fresh week in case of a Lawson injury and IF this comes at the cost of reps for Schmekel, then I’m fine with this move.

Problem is, none of that will be the case.

Honestly as I was scrolling down and saw the top of this post I immediately thought  "F*** Offffffffff"  and thought that this was a troll job.  

 

 

They must be trolling. 

Looks like they are rounding up the old gang for another kick at the cat and frankly if it leads to another Grey Cup appearance then I'm fine with it but they better win this time

Dude is washed up and dry cleaned tho. I mean what is the point. Easily replaceable and not even good. I don’t get this one. I can justify the Wilson and Gauthier one but this is just mind boggling.
