Bout time they announced these guys. I have kinda high hopes for Lamar, don't know much about Bass.

Heard he's in negotiations with New Orleans. Apparently that was misinformation.Very interesting. Seems lots of misinformation on the remaining free agent LBs. Do they both have the same agent? lol I read that Peters doesn't even have a CFL agent. Lol

I wonder if we put Owamagbe Odighizuwa on our negotiation list already.

I know this is a really REALLY good hire.

I'd have no qualms about them locking him down until 2018 today.

Someone is definitely being facetious about Curran. Could be negotiations playing out in the media. Could be the truth. Probably somewhere in between.

Rennie Curran has signed with the Birmingham Barracudas.

Well... obviously nothing applies in all cases. You can buy a cat and train it for 10 years but it will never fly like a bird. Have you tried sewing wings on?

Yeah, hoping Stafford is still in.

lol Armia already hurt. Just as he could've been called up. CLASSIC ARMIA I'm also getting a chuckle out of Floyd falling in love with Chiarot and calling Myers lazy. CLASSIC FLOYD

But can you fill Stoudemire's jockey shorts? Alright, there have been several "Stoudemire references" on the forum. What did I miss? And I hope I won't regret asking... Click on my avi and take a close look. The picture is small but what you'll see isn't. Or you can see the picture on his twitter account: https://twitter.com/_Stoudermire11 Great bloi-dei Dorzon's ghost! Fun fact - he's a professional gourmet chef now.

I'd take Toston for camp competition. Always blew my mind that Saskatchewan never gave him a better look, only knock on him is that he can't catch the ball worth ****. But as a big back to chew up tough yards, I'd take him. Certainly don't want him in there as our starting RB but with the Canadian depth we've developed on defense, we may not need 3 designated imports on defense this year, leaving a spot for Stoudermire (I guess technically he's on defense) and an offensive guy.

Wonder how far behind a Sears deal is if Brohm just re-upped.

Fiddlesticks.

Teams know how to use the media as a tool to push their agenda. Some of what they say is truthful, some of what they say is out there as a smokescreen because that's the message the front office wants out there, especially around FA time and draft time. For example ... one "reporter said such and such in public" example in this thread is literally the exact opposite of what they said to me in private. And what they said in private happened. For what it's worth, I was told by a couple people today that the Bombers are out on Curran. EDIT - out on Curran could obviously mean if the price goes any higher. My guess is they've made their offer, it's not the highest offer but they'd still pay it if Curran opted to come here.

I'm going to patent "item that does something" and sue the hell out of everyone.

Fargo tryout? Surely I can fill Dan West's role!

What I am asking, I guess, is "will our US-based scouting system going to be doing a better job than merely filling holes?" It has been a while since we’ve seen new prospects capable of becoming superstars for our ball club. I am asking what can we expect from our US scouting system, realistically, this year, that can make us a significantly better team than last year. Are our scouts any better or worse than what we find in the rest of the league? Is coming up with all-star calibre players more than serendipity? Has it? Not really. We've been coming up with studs for years. It's the depth that's been the issue.

he did.

I'm not really sure what you're asking, to be honest. Our American scouting is hopefully going to find us players to fill the holes we have in our roster?

"We can do whatever we want unless what we're doing is something that can be viewed as exploitation in which case it's sad that we think we have to do that unless we want to unless we want to because a man told us we want to" #yesallwomen

Brohm signed.

Everyone keeps saying this but the reality is that he could play for the Sabres, it just made no sense for them to do so.

Myers is a machine. Just wait until he gets comfortable. Sounds like Armia is getting called up. He's not on the ice this morning in STJ.
