nah... "Hey bluto!" threads were a bit of a tradition on the former Bomber site... it's been a month here so it was about time.

The Stamps signed Kevin Huntley today... Thought you'd like to know.

 

Not surprising at all.

 

If big Kev is healthy and his shoulder holds together, he'll be a force on that line, a leader in the locker room and a favourite with Stamps fans.

 

Good for them (and him).

John Murphy has a reputation for recycling players.

not sure why "recycling" has such a negative rap with some folks... we have quite a few starters who were standouts for us, but were picked up for little/nothing as their former teams weren't interested in them anymore.

 

just because a team cuts you, it doesn't mean you can't play... sometimes it does, but many times it's because the player didn't fit or the team was going with another option for any number of reasons.

 

guys like Hefney and Huntley will have nice years.

There are lots of players who have gone from one teams garbage pile to being gems for another team. It all depends on what the fit is like. Remember people, Vega was cut by another team before the bombers brought him in... hell the best example I can think of is Anwar Stewart being a cut from Calgary when they were absolutely terrible but he went to be a star with Montreal. It's all about who fits with what teams. 

And Stewart went back to Calgary and did what?

Got old.

This just proves the point even further.  Players can be good with one team and terrible on another.  Geez nothing gets by you does it?

That would be HAM. Cut in favour of Garret McIntyre.

Got old.

 

And to the Grey Cup.

Yes, thank god they signed Anwar Stewart to put themselves over the top. Surely he was the missing link.

Stewart played well for the Stamps. Helped them to the GC so it was all good.
