Considering Kyle Walters draft record, it far outweighs the negatives that's for sure. I won't be one of the posters "losing my mind" as Noeller was suggesting would happen here. Not every selection will work out. Richards didn't & today he retires. Such is pro football. Kyle has done well restocking the cupboard compared to the way things were when he first was named Interim GM in 2013. My only advice to Kyle? Stay away from receivers who play college in the province of Saskatchewan.

Like life, the interview just like the Combine is part of the process to get a job. If a player doesn't do well in the interview because of shyness or nervousness, he may not get the job as happens in the working world. Durant didn't do well in the interviews which we all know. Maybe teams put too much stock in them when they really should concentrate on the measurables & performance on the field instead.

And you know, how????? Just speculating like you always do about Hellebuyck being our future goalie too? You don't know squat about Durant.

I don't know what kind of problems you refer to as I had said earlier on prior threads regarding Lemar Durant that Durant he had no personal issues & was a great team guy at SFU. My son was a qb at SFU & he threw a few TD passes his way when they played together. The man is shy & introverted. A bit of a loner. He kept to himself & is quiet. He worked hard in practice everyday as well as games & was a beast in the weight room during & between seasons. He did everything the coaches at SFU asked him to do. Some of the questions asked in these interviews are designed to throw off the players. Like Jim Barker accusing a player that if the Argos drafted him he'd go back to his hometown CFL team after his first contract, so why should they draft him? Like what is a player supposed to say to that??? "NO!!! PLEEEEEAAASSSSEEEE!!!" Apparently, Durant didn't handle the interview phase well, but don't label him a guy who had problems when he didn't. Look at the player he's turning into now.

Thanks for that, Mr Dee.

Anything with The Miz now I just change the channel. Miz this & Miz that. Now, it's the Miztourage trying to revive the careers of 2 loser wrestlers in Bo Dallas & Curtis Axel in a storyline ? They should have been fired 2 years ago. Like I'm out for 10 minutes until the segment is over. However, Raw is better than it has been.

Coaches need more money & benefits from pension to health & dental coverage. They get nothing like that at all. Some would stay if they had them. Not all but some. The good ones, anyway.

Same to me. The Cats worked hard to build a very good team & now it's just a shell barely 2 years later. We all know who the GM was in Edmonton who traded away Ricky Ray for virtually a bag of footballs

Hank opened his big mouth & went after the guys in the studio for really no reason. Never thinking what he said could come back to haunt him later. He felt disrespected. Poor guy.

Climie loves the RedBlacks & it shows with his commentary as they can do no wrong in his eyes. He must be dying watching that team find ways to choke so far this season. I find it funny that after trashing the TSN panel last season during a game that Hank is now doing a halftime feature on offensive systems with TSN. Also interesting that he never appears live or talks to the panel in the studio like Paul LaPolice did.

That's not what I said... You know that. Everyone else knows that. And I'll keep watching, thanks. But I appreciate your concern.

They really need to get rid of Jock Climie. A part timer who doesn't contribute much. With the clothes he wears or commentary.

Schultz is MIA again this year.

Zontar, as a Ti Cat fan how much blame do you lay at the feet of Eric Tillman?

At one time it was legal to use the goalpost as a screen. Teams would run a pass or run right beside the goalpost effectively cutting off ways for defensive players to get to the ball. At the same time defenses could use the goalposts to assist in tackling players & squashing offensive players up against the goalposts. I've seen pictures of that very thing. That would be the 40's & 50's. It's strange to see how football used to be played way back in the day.

New ball boy next game.

Nah, don't like to see anyone get hurt regardless of who they play for.

Glad to see the Bombers starting to get noticed even if it's just by a sportscaster in Calgary on Sports Talk radio on The Fan 960.. I think Matt Nichols doesn't get the credit & respect he deserves.

Yeah, I'm sure it is. Just like Field Turf is better than the original Astro & Tartan Turf. Still though players need to keep their heads on a swivel around the goalpost.

Things have sure changed team culture wise haven't they? This used to be an organization that coaches & players never wanted to come to. No more.

Blue Bomber flanker Ken Nielsen ran into the goalpost at full speed looking back attempting to catch a pass from Ron Lancaster in the 1970 CFL All Star game. He suffered a serous neck injury & IIRC never played again. Ended his career. So while it seems funny, it's also dangerous. It's a wonder it doesn't happen more often.

Glad he wasn't seriously injured. His pride hurt more than anything else.

We do need a legit MAC lber.

Not me. Desjardins runs that team. Looks good on them.
