blitzmore Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 I'm not much of a fan of the DeAngelis signing per se, but considering our field position stats - Bombers average start on their own 35, and the opponents start on their 43 yard line (worst in the league), then I feel, as we all knew, kicking has to be better. Apparently all of DeAngelis' stats are worse than Palardy's. If all they wanted was longer kickoffs they should have kept the Non Import Aussie Kicker. *Thanks to Stats Junkie for digging up this info.

I can't argue with that logic but, Burke And Dickenson have worked with the SandMan before. I can only take that as their logic for this questionable signing.

robynjt Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Yeah if he isn't better at kickoffs... eh. Just keep them in bounds and I'll be happy. There were a few that REALLY screwed them over. And, seeing as we rarely score points, that's a pretty high percentage of screw ups and kills all the momentum we had. That said, Palardy hasn't been the best kicker either. ... I see Parades and I cry a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelownabomberfan Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Annnnnd Sandra gets the starting gig.....wow this week is shaping up to be a doozie! like in 2010 when I went to the game in August against Hamilton only to watch Buck get hurt in the first quarter and Mike Renaud kicking converts as the field-goal kicker that we had just signed after cutting the smurf Serna got hurt in warm-ups.

kelownabomberfan Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 I remember that. Who was the kicker again? Louie Sakoda or something like that. The kicker that we were up against in that game for Hamilton? Sandro DeAngelis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaosmonkey Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 So do we place bets on if another player punches him in the face or not? Or do we just jump to placing bets on who will do it first? Put 100 internet dollars on 88 Jay Detaine giving Sandro some free dental work.

road griller Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 This is going to turn things around big time for the Bombers. Time to 'KICK' some 'Cat butt! Sandro goes 8-8 and gets carried off the field on the team's shoulders. Get your cameras ready! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR. CFL Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 U can't seriously consider this move has any long term benefit. Just another bandaid on open heart surgery. Or rather a limp that needs amputation (BoD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
