  1. the perfect recollection of DD would be unnecessary roughness roughness penalties.
  2. how many Olines have turned the 2nd best rb in the league last year into a 2 yards per carry guy getting hit in the back field on every other play? the OL has been brutal most of this year. Its a fact not an opinion. The entire offense has been bad, but the OL is allways the primary limiting factor in the cfl. Depth picks hit, its the nature of a draft. Thats like every team in the nfl passing on tom brady 6-7 times.
  3. wes lysack scott regimbald and joe first half flemming. never forget. wick makes me think of antonio armstrong. Talk about here today gone tomorrow. Randy "fum"bowles troy mills and eric blount for splitting touches with charles roberts. brendan ayenbadejo not good enough to start here but one year iirc in bc after leaving our sts for a chance to start and he had a nice nfl career. yvenson bernard antonio brown mr ncaa d1 track star with 4.18 speed. Had one great leaping catch i wanna say from tee martin. joe morgan a vaunted prospect from the supplemental draft by way of south florida. arjei franklin the heir apparent at one point for NI wr. and of course my favorite name of the flash in the pans chiijoke onyenegecha
  4. good coverage is PI these days. Lookin at the wr? thats a PI. thinkin bout hittin the wr? thats a pi. get pushed off by the wr? oh you bet thats a PI.
  5. every game we lose whole team has to sit in front of that picture of him laid out naked on a fur in front of the fire. never lose again.
  6. doesnt matter how mobile you are when the pressure comes straight up the gut with your feet set at the snap in a shot gun or pistol formation. Also running qbs tend to take more damage then pocket passers.
  7. Thats the big one. Toronto who most recently did it best mixed in match zone and zone blitzs a lot too. You gotta have wrinkles. All of which our D lacks. If we didnt gap cancel to try and stop the run our front would get better pressure though.
  8. mack came into a considerably better team then walters. and it evaporated quickly to say the least. Who after harris? jamaal westerman you know the guy who was 2nd in the league in sacks last year as a rookie. No team has been built through free agency? The argos with doug flutie would beg the differ. How much of that hammy team is free agents? What about ottawa turning into a contender right away with free agency? Teams make off season power shifts through free agency all the time. Walters was one of the guys, what you can clearly see is the way we drafted under mack is completely different to how we draft under walters. How many guys do we have sitting in the nfl hoping to trickle down form walters? How many from mack? How many mack draftees are on the roster?

    idk about wrasslers but brock sure has it. and ncaa wrestlers too. Even big country was once trim and had stamina. At the regional combine he put up a 4,6 40 at 285 pounds and 40+ reps of 225. at the big combine he ran 4.7 and not as many reps.

    Thats the truth ive seen members of his family, not jacked but big ass people. gassing wasnt his problem, it was recovering from getting rocked / chin that haunted him in the past. Hes got loads of stamina. Hunt is like big country when he blows that initial steam at you if you survive it gets much easier. Hunts much better at 2nd wind and recovery but big countrys jaw is some marvel stuff. If brock was to fight some one like JDS or arlovski we would see that in effect again. Especially with jds.

    Casually watched some wwf in attitude era but that was it so i cant really say. But from his last year wrestling in college to ufc 1.0 to now he isnt much different in size or shape. I think the novelty has warn off on you. Hes by no means just a run of the mill strong guy. Watching him fight hunt his quickness is still un real.
  15. gotten rid of by other teams with little to no interest coming to the worst team as a last ditch effort and becoming all stars. This happens all the time though, guys are constantly reflushed from other teams pre season cuts, tc guys etc.
  16. Yeah I remember that catch. Also some thing jones at wr. we picked him from torontos PR iirc and started him in the east semi. Had like 200 yards receiving was brought back the next year to do nothin. Good to hear about kingsbury. Never head about timmy chang wouldnt surprise me though. Scott hands of stone cloman comes to mind too.
  17. Coleman and nash were cut and had several very productive years here. Coleman was cut and went to xfl. Bc looked on paper to have won the deal for khari when it happened but it turned out not even close in our favor. He certainly fell through the cracks for them. Bolden and sellers were both productive nfl players cut, came here had some great performances here and then moved back down to the nfl to be even more productive. Bolden was excellent in atlanta before returning here at the end of his career and sellers was a multi time pro bowler.
  18. teams that had guys fall through the cracks.
  19. Mcgarrity oh how high hopes were for you. Soo let down. Kamau incompleterson too. Loved geoff drovers hard nosed play. Thought he really showed some flashes as a DB. Ah vann iirc from dave ritchies alma mater dropped every thing but was brought back twice. Tee martin. after i wanna say 2.5 years when he was cut I remember him mentioning in an interview he never got the hang of 3 downs. The amount of throw aways and dump passes on 2nd down proved that. Never a fan of his, stemming from some greasy with that vols team, but hes turned into a real good coach down south and made some good money for him self. Iirc one of the big list of guys we had picked ahead of tom brady at qb. VInny sutherland. the jet. One big catch i remember. A bunch of catch and fall down at arm tackles on returns and catches. Guy was a high pick for a returnman in the nfl then cut in tc then picked up by the 9ers had a good yards season there as a rookie then was cut and here shortly after out of football. The classic mike quinn football drive from the nfl pre season people talked about for seemingly 10 years. Ron warner, as a DE and at around 250 he was a stud pass rusher before going back to the nfl. Came back at like 285 and had to play DT but couldnt make any thing happen. One of those guys that adds a ton of muscle looks great but loses his step. fred "otis" amey. Had high hopes for him. Not a tall wr or blazing speed. But a quick first step crazy long arms and big hands. Never made much of it though. couple ill throw on the heap. Joshua bostick. WR like 6'3 iirc. Was a machine in camp looked like a world beater. One of the first cuts in camp under ritchie to keep the vets around. Tony ortiz. Mr.TC great resume, another guy who looked like a world beater in camp but couldnt make the club from the tub. i wanna say he was brought back atleast 3 times and to 2 camps. Robert flash gordon. Led us in receiving in 2000. At that point one of the best possession wrs in the league. And worked great with milt. bobby gorgeous loved the moonlight. Acting in movies and playing an AFL season before coming to the cfl. after 2k we had limited funds and had to choose between wrs. We choose robert gordon over our no3 wr who had about half his yards. Bobby was a vet with a history of production. He was a great fit in the locker room. But moonlighting in the AFL got him hurt twice and he tapered off into sub jaimie stoddard levels of production. The no3 wr was geroy simon. derreck smith. Had half a season at wr for us and looked amazing. Like 4 100 yard games in a row. Then dropped off the face of the earth. onterrio smith. very productive nfl player who came to the blue after a steroid /whizzinator suspension in the nfl. Came in drastically over weight. We had the intention of thunder and lightning 2.0 with him and blink. He hurt his foot the first day of practise and that was it. Cancer in the locker room over weight and banged up he was done. Adam pacman jones. Another highly productive nfl player who got into trouble. Bombers signed him and cut him for stupid stuff he said on social media before he ever suited up. Brad banks. The qb not the returnman. Taken in the dispersal draft. He had the tool set and pedigree that screamed cfl star. And none of the play to back it up. We really banked on him developing at one time. Kliff kingsbury. Another high resume guy with the skill set you think would dominate up here but nope. Timmy chang. A personal favorite maligned back up qb prospect of mine. Loved watching him play in hawaii with chad owens. 50 yard bombs on every other play. Just didnt have what it took to make it up here. Brock lesnar. Never played, but taman added him to the Neg list and when he got cut by the vikes hopes were high for about a day.
  20. Thats a bloody good point. Every team has some guys slip through the cracks. BC with khari, harold nash when he came here, marvin coleman, juran bolden mike sellers and doug brown to name a few. But I think thats it, this team kinda seems in shock and expects to break out of it doing more of what they have been doing. Id say the extremely passive systems our O and D run make it even worse. You take guys who dont have that nasty edge and put them in a passive system youll get maligned play. Im still a lil sore with how brandon dysons time here ended. I d throw on more elfred peyton, more miltitude, more harold nash and even more dave donaldson. DD was a bit dense with the penalties but he never took a play off and made the opponent work twice as hard.
  21. we have tons and tons of talent at wr. Our centre started what 9 games last year at centre? not a rookie. We are down like 5 starting dbs and it still is better then the terrible soft deep cover they are forced to play. We have qbing, we dont have a mega star that will carry the team but those are few and far between. You dont need one to win though you need a team that works well to win. Your forgetting and writing off how horrible this team was under mack and the utter disaster he left. Nearly no NI talent, completely rebuilt in to the strength of the team now. Weve got the pieces, tons of pieces and talent. This isnt an air lift and pray team. Weve seen lots of those in the past 20 years. This team has a ton of proven talent that is under performing. Schemes and coaching is to blame. And an OL that is the most under performing of the bunch.
  22. until you end the drought its allways a rebuild. If we were gonna blow it up and tank this year, then might as well get waggoner rotating in there too. But we arent gonna.
  23. probably day to day for 6-8 weeks like every one else

    interesting. some one was busted for some thing similar a couple years back. In his last stint the ufc didnt have any real testing. Late in the gsp era no one was caught for any thing. But i agree, hes been big forever. His whole family is huge. Ive seen some of his work outs, dudes legit. People who roid dont stay as healthy as him, or nealy as quick. Roids n lift doesnt make you quick, and hes the quickest big man ive ever seen. This isnt bob sapp. Raphael palmero came out all hell bent for leather against roids and then got busted but i think most people on PEDs would just stay mum on the subject. He normally sits in the 285 range, wasnt crazy cut and easily made weight. Dont see any reason he'd be on it. Wasnt recovering from any injuries i know of, but im not a wwe guy.
