I don’t know about the rest of you but I, for one, quite enjoy being constantly reminded by Goalie that I am just a fan who knows nothing and has no opinion worth anything. It’s nice, because it eliminates the confusion I have when I sometimes log on here and think I’m in the offensive gameplan meeting. thanks Goalie!

I talked a bit about it with Ed Tait after the game and he basically told me I was an idiot and I need to wait and see. Politely and respectfully, but the belief seems to be that this will be turned around just because.

“there’s a difference between practice shape and game shape … unless you’re Patrick Neufeld, Brandon Alexander, Kyrie Wilson, Adam Bighill, Jackson Jeffcoat, Andrew Harris, Brady Oliveira, Stanley Bryant, Dalton Schoen, Nik Demski, Alden Darby or Jake Thomas of course”

It’s so disappointing that we all know how this story has to end and all we can do is wait for it to happen

Augustine was an easy cut to me, although to be fair he may have taken a minimum-ish or lower deal. Let‘s not forget, 100k isn’t really what it used to be in terms of contracts in the CFL. It’s only 35k more than minimum which isn’t a ton (but yes it’s still significant)

Lol yikes

It does seem depressing with the state of our roster but I’m going to try and not read too much into it … day one of the practice week has always been a mess. Just seems like so much hesitation to make actual different making moves. For example, I appreciate that we brought back Smith now that he’s healthy but Mitchell should’ve been gone at the same time. I think Fayad will be good too but seems foolish to bring just him in.

I like both of these developments

I got way beyond tired of the flat brim and curving it by hand just bent or broke it so I did some research. Had to come up with something, I have over 100 of them, couldn’t have them all looking like a mess lol

I’m sure this is what you meant but it’s closer to 340k for Brady/Johnny

They would’ve put Prukop in last year but not Streveler in this year

I collect the New Era fitted hats and yeah if you just bend them, you’ll mess them up. I steam them and then curve them around a water bottle (I use a big Nalgene) and it works perfectly everytime … if you have a clothes steamer, that does it or myself I just boil a pot of water and put the brim over it for 30-45 seconds

That trade was a great trade for us

You know you can curve a 59fifty brim right 😂

Chris Smith and Ali Fayad back Haba and Fox on the 6

I don’t think anyone is happy about this. I also don’t know what has been posted that would ever give you an inkling anyone feels this way. It’s funny you say that though, because I view it as quite the opposite. The warning signs for this were present long before this season and anyone who suggested that in the past couple years was made fun of, told they didn’t know what they were talking about, shouted down (“3 in a row! 4 in a row!”) and told they were too negative. Now look. I’m clearly one of the more outspoken people who has frustrations with what’s going on right now and if you think I’m happy about it, you’re dead wrong. Past two games have ruined my weekends.

Yes. -Management

Again lol if that’s the result, the process is still ******

I don’t care who it is but one of Kolo or Neufeld needs to sit next week for Eli If that performance doesn’t do it, what will?

Collaros still off … not terrible but couple bozo plays were back breakers play calling 1st and 7 with 60 seconds left a lot to be desired no trust in JA to do anything much beyond be the “starter” some combo of Neuf/Kolo killing us on the interior line Lord Keric looks like a keeper Haba, Fox both out after the first half … Devin Adams looked like a stud, JT looked like JT Biggie, Wilson, BA all looked washed in the tackling game Nichols hurt, Bridges TBD on performance Kramdi came to play, intense game, results were mixed Sheahan stinky Myron Mitchell extra stinky Castillo no chipped balls in the chipped balls

I guess my point is I’m kind of tired of getting **** on for actually wanting to talk reality and having people whine at me because I’m too negative or I’m too critical or I’m too whatever and then I end up being right and they end up crying because they think that we are infallible just because we had one ridiculously awesome run of success.

What did they see in Wilson/Mitchell? It obviously isn’t pedigree, they kicked guys that they had their eye on for YEARS like Barriere/Gemmel to the curb immediately. That would suggest it’s something they’re seeing in camp so what the **** is it? I’ve got a hunch that Mitchell must’ve held the door open for the cleaning staff one day. Sealed the deal.

Sorry that you feel that way. I tend to not let my heart get in the way of facts and logic and as grossed out as I am that this is still happening, I’ll remind you that I took a lot of **** for my “snide condescending” take on things last year when it came to our team and our coach and we’re now a year further along and literally everything I was criticized for ended up being nearly bang on. My assessment of individual players and what not is nowhere near up to par compared to some guys around here like JBR, Booch, wbbfan and others but I don’t think you’re going to find much evidence to suggest I wasn’t deadly accurate about the overall direction of our team If you like feel good losing, good for you. I don’t.

What is it that makes you optimistic? Genuine question
