  1. Kuale and hurl. Just because some one is great at a position doesnt mean they will coach it or scout other players at it well. Kinda like the great one coaching. There is no off season in pro sports. Not any more. Its training, study, and work outs. Never know when a switch will go on for a guy or what will cause it. Hope it happens for some one at MLB this year.
  2. Ya pretty much what i thought. Id rather have him then say hurl, despite the pass port cus he'd start. But i dont see it happening.
  3. Now if we could just stay healthy, and stop running out 5+ pitchers a game
  4. Id love to get woods. Dont think we will tho.
  5. Just need jeff reinbold to run in yellin and hyping guys up while flickering the lights
  6. Richard karikari "close" lol. I like his talent a lot i hope for him it doesnt turn into a st.john situation. nah its gonna be the league/commish fault for the first few weeks. Reality will set in well after a month+ of regular season action. Glenn plus those wr's will buy them some false hope too. Till he goes down...
  7. Im not talking about dennis getting cut, if he comes back then some one has to go right. No, all teams really dont.
  8. The guys who retired arent hiding they are legit done. Isnt there a minimum time period from retiring to when you can return as well?
  9. the great cornholio! http://hussoneagles.com/sports/fball/2016-17/bios/orio_rick_9djp?view=career&pos=d Originally he was going to take a track scholarship, state champion in hurdles and 4x100 relay. Hes a good athlete who likes to hit and seems to be a savoy leader type. Moved around between both safety spots DB, and played in the box. Dont think this is a guy you give a first rounder for, but he does seem like our kind of guy.
  10. The battle in the trenches is gonna be amazing this year in camp. I wonder if couture bulked up some more. Iirc he was like 276 when we drafted him and he came to camp closer to 290 but still wanted to fill out a bit more. * the roster seems to be updated. Has couture at 297, corney 267 and butcher at 333. IIRc corney was 255 last year and butcher 320.
  11. Im totally sure they will cut a couple guys 2-3 days into camp and send them home when these guys come back. Its not like jones to break rules amirite.
  12. wasnt it mentioned a bit back? wish donny O well. dont see a fit for him here. If we didnt have butcher and jake itd get a lot of talk.
  13. patrick neufeld > dyakowski at this point. and i dont think much of neufeld. but hes still young enough to play his best football.
  14. this is just how a CLASSY organization operates. we are just not used to such high quality management...

    UFC

    youre right. its a long game going with guys like gaethje. but the upside long run of a roy nelson is low imop. Chael allways sells fights like crazy its what he does.
  16. rookie camp fodder at that lol
  17. If it wasnt for medlock i dont think plop would have a job. Maybe the whole coaching staff. I love medlock as much as any one but I really feel nervous about counting on a kicker to follow up a record setting year with the same kind of performance.
  18. For sure. But its not just that, our use of DIs and forgetting harris for extended periods of time is a problem too.
  19. whens that keilbasa coming off the slicer!
  20. I wouldnt call the group of wrs we had a dogs breakfast. One of our better wr cores in the past fist full of years. Now the offensive system id call that a dogs breakfast. All those short passes also gives us a high floor and low ceiling on our WRs. Nichols certainly threw a bunch of passes that could and should have been picked. he also had a couple picks thanks to wrs. Our offense cant toss balls at defenders, our wrs cant volleyball passes to defenders, and it cant disappear for a half of football at a time this year. Nichols deserves as much blame for all that as he does credit for winning last year. If our offense played every down like the 4th quarter / last half of the 4th quarter we might have one of the best offenses in the league. If we played like most of our 2nd/3rd quarters wed be in trouble and lots of it. Being soo conservative in our passing attack doesnt leave us a big margin for error. Especially if we dont set the world on fire with all the turn overs again from our D.
  21. Nailed it.

    UFC

    I imagine they will feed him a series of one and doners culminating in a cheick kongo re match. His wrestling is really an incredible skill. But he went full johny hendricks. The amount of potential this guy has wasted and type of bad fighter meme he has become is sickening. The last time he was in shape was in college. Id much rather have seen bellator go around and over pay young guys like gaethje then re circulate old trash. They seem to be trying to do both, which I gotta credit them for atleast trying. Bellator has more rational fight match ups. (aside from money reasons) Which is soo sad. In other news, GSP announced his UFC return being pushed back is due to eye injuries. If his come back never happens i wont be sad. I love the guy and what he has done for the sport and the sport in canada. I dont want to see him get BJ penn'd. Germaine de Randamie is doing a full on floyd mayweather trying to run from cybro. Said she would rather get stripped then fight her. Cmon man, if you go into that division you have to know you are gonna go back down, leave the ufc, or fight her. I hate this type of running from the best contender junk. Paper champions refusing to fight the best challenger crippled boxing for me. They need to straighten out match making in the UFC. More then they need to deal with shotty rules and commissions. NYSAC has changed rules to no prevent cormier like cheating. Even though they had them in place to begin with and just slept on it. And the UFC signed gokhan saki. Its a bit of a freak show move, but my kind of freakshow move. Itll be interesting to see what weight division he fights in. Down 20 ish to LHW makes the most sense imop. Though HW is pretty soft. And fights with some of the bottom of the top 10 guys, the has been strikers would be fun to watch. Hope he is working none stop on his take down D.
  23. malcolm bell another one to the list of never was'. Austin apodaca. The next savior. Im sure the riders will swoop in and grab bell any minute now and trumpet him as the next great qb in the cfl.
  24. I think thats a great point. Our team does things their own way. They've stuck to the systems, and player mold to a T. A lot of things can result in an early departure from camp. From both a player and a team stand point. I do like that we are quick to make decisions when a guy isnt what they look for. Over this regime of management we've seen them bring in and ship out qbs at a very quick pace. Makes me think they are looking for one thing above all else and if a the guy lacks that hes out. Could be a mentality thing. The mos guy work ethic, drive, love of the game, reserved outwardly fiery in side. Or could be accuracy, or maybe its more along the lines of the guys that didnt make it just didnt pick up the changes to the game and offense quick enough. They may not want a guy to sit on the side lines / PR for a year to just start to grasp the basics. Under most regimes a few guys we have brought in and sent out in short order would have sat around at least a year to see if they could put it together. Maybe some thing for one of the early coaches shows.
