what is this tell me more

That isn't how I remember it.

I was looking at Montreal's roster (this week's DC is not up) and man they are beat up. They only had 6 Canadians listed on their depth chart as starters last week and as far as I can tell, the backup choices they had were pretty grim.

I agree.

Underrated in all this is Corney. He's out there with Westerman lots.

Me too - but it's gotta be either Roc or Okpalaugo. Can't be a Canadian, so Ekakitie will dress, which tells me it's probably TO, since I can't see them dressing 8 DL and 6 DB.

I don't really think it's any different - they're not increasing their flexibility at all by doing this. They rotate Hurl and Thomas anyways. I think Okpalaugo is a scratch though (or Carmichael but that'd be thin at DB) with Foketi.

I hope Jones never earns another dollar off combat sports again in his life. Absolute scum.

Seems like more of a fluff piece than anything to be honest, but hey, if Walker isn't a Bomber then I hope he's a Buc.

Depends on where we're at when he's ready to come back, but if he comes back willing and able to play the last 6 games of the season + playoffs, I'd throw a prorated 200k at him, which would be 66k-ish - and I'd give him whatever we need to upfront. Can you imagine a group of receivers made up of Walker-Adams-Dressler-Thorpe-JFG?

I wouldn't doubt it was orchestrated by Murphy. Remember when he organized the signing of Pacman Jones for us so that Pacman could go online and stream to fans high as a kite talking about how he was going to play corner, receiver, kick returner, punt returner and score 4 touchdowns a game?

Awwww shucks Trent changed his mind. He didn't realize he'd have to sign for two years.

Let's play a game called "Guess Which Way Trent Went"

I don't care if Richardson was the nicest guy on the planet. He was the 3rd overall pick in the NFL Draft and washed out after 3 seasons. He is *that* bad.

I'm sure they'll be interested. I can't see him wanting a two year deal. It'd make sense for him to want to sign a deal for the balance of this year, go attend tryouts again in the off-season and then if that doesn't pan out, open himself up to a big money deal in free agency when every team can make a play for him. If that's the route he goes, only playoff teams make sense.

Very well could be a reality. If he came free, the likely reality is that he's going to probably be with one of three teams - Calgary, Winnipeg or Toronto. What they offer is the most appealing - a deal for the remainder of the year with the ability to play with a great QB and earn playoff money.

Oh and I think it's a pretty fair assumption to say he's not going to make the Bucs. He's super low on the totem pole there.

I can't see the Eskimos going after him, to be honest. They have Bowman, Zylstra and Williams. Walker is going to have no allegiance to a new GM. Honestly, I could see him in Calgary and that scares the **** out of me. I'd love to think we'd be interested, but it'd probably be one of two things - a 1 year deal or the end of Dressler. He IS, however, exactly what we could use.

Good grief LOL good luck with that is right

You just finally acknowledged the only point I've been making this whole time and agreed with it, then implied I'm the one disputing things? I honestly don't know what your point is, because it seems to change every post. At first, it was that he's making the key kicks. Then all the kicks are key kicks, but he's not making all of the kicks either. Now it's that if he didn't make easy kicks, we could've lost? Here's my belief: the key kicks are the kicks that we pay him to make because the other kickers aren't capable of making them. If we just wanted him to make every single 30 yarder that adds up to enough points to cover the margin of victory, I'm sure Hugh O'Neill could do that at a much fairer price. We're paying him to make the 50 yard game winners, the 55 yarders to take leads, the big kicks with the game on the line. And he's not making all of those.

I mean, there's lots more than that but yeah obviously the emphasis is going to be placed on his striking since that's his gimmick. And his gimmick beats itsmuhyardimthebigdog any day of the week, especially when you add in all the power ups, poorly executed superman punches, running hugs and ... fist charges?

aaaaand then there's the BC game, which for as much as I love Medlock, I have to say you could quite easily almost single handedly blame on him. We can argue about the fake punt all day, but all indications are he was the one who saw a key in the alignment and called it which was an absolutely horrendous move at that point in the game and basically flipped every bit of momentum we had going for us and then he falls short on a kick that he needs to be making for the money we pay him. Medlock makes our team better. He's a great player. He hasn't had an amazing year.

His job is to make field goals. Let's isolate the Toronto game, since it's the first one I looked at: he's 4-4, we win by 8. He hit two massive field goals, neither of which were late in the game. Then he hit two routine ones each under 30 yards of the automatic variety. Ottawa game - he hit one big one and missed one 45 yarder, which flipped the field on us. The rest of them? Routine. Again - not sure why this is such a huge deal. He did his job. Saskatchewan game - longest field goal was 35 yards - again, a bunch of routine kicks. He did his job. Montreal game - he gave away 5 points on missed field goals, which one could argue essentially changed the entire script of the last six minutes of the game, since Bede kicked a field goal to put them up by (you guessed it) 5 at that point. Handing us the ball down 5 with 6 minutes to go led to a two-and-out, however a tie game easily changes the entire way we move the ball there (not speculating for better or for worse) so I'm not exactly sure what you're getting at here. His best play of this game was a beautiful onside kick.

Not sure how someone could say NXT is boring compared to the main product. I'll take guys like Aleister Black over guys like Roman Reigns any day, to be honest. And now they're talking Reigns/Lesnar for WM34? Good grief. The sooner Reigns gets off my TV, the better. He's horrible. He's the new 5 moves of doom specialist, except it's more like 3.

Quit moving the goalposts on what you're saying. First you said he's making the key ones. I said not exactly. And now suddenly, every field goal is a key one. I get it - you want to spin everything in a positive fashion. That's fine. But I'm just discussing things here.
