Actually, we were accused of planting that idiot over there. So he has a point.

Oh yeah and as good as my actual SEATS are, holy **** is the environment around me AWFUL. I think my section is being sponsored by the River Ridge Nursing Home. The most excitement I saw from other fans was a dude shaking his cane at the field. For real. West side sucks. Why am I here.

Here are my thoughts ... -- I missed the first five minutes because of traffic -- My hamburger had no toppings because they ran out -- Desia got a quickname nickname from me. Is. As in Desia Is Dunn. Cut him tomorrow, he was horrendous. -- The best thing McGee did all day was get hurt. -- Etienne had a couple nice grabs, as did Carter. -- Hall was by far the best QB and all this talk about how they took Buck out to protect him makes me sick, it`s pretty obvious teams are just going to gun for him until he gets knocked out. -- Apparently missing five minutes means you don`t see ANY starters, I think the only first unit guy I noticed on the field was Jovon. Maybe Stewart once or twice. -- Massey and Kennedy both impressed me as returners, McCree can follow Dunn as far as I`m concerned. -- Wendell Brown was all over the place but still ... how can I honestly try and say ANY linebacker impressed me. -- David James looked on. And then off. And then on. And then off. Too inconsistent. -- Marty Markett probably will not make the team but he needs to stick around on the PR. He will be a very good replacement at CB WHEN the time comes, I just dont think that time is now. -- Marcus Hyde is FAST. JT Gilmore is HUGE. Like both of these guys on the line. That`s about all I remember for now. Oh yeah. Doug Brown sucks as a radio personality. Maybe he should go commentate a funeral, seems better suited for his personality.

Honestly, even as a diehard fan, if this game were televised, I'd consider not going. Kind of like how I turned down tickets to the Jets first home preseason game when they came back. I want my first time to mean something. (lol)

If they ever legalize weed, I'm buying stock in Frito Lay.

Anyone feel like making some 2012 season predictions? I feel like I have a pretty good grasp on what could go down.

I'd love to see this kid make the team, but I still think he's in tough. I really hope he takes a tough hit or two, just because I want to see how he responds.

First game at IGF? Time to celebrate.

Rod Black isn't happy with the similarities between himself and the newly named Ottawa franchise, he has filed a request with Jeff Hunt to change the name to the Ottawa Gigueres.

I didn't know they converted Djems Kouame to CB

Hey guys, dunno if you've seen this related article. http://www.ottawasun...shouting-baines

I still remember when Odell Willis phoned me to ask me where I wanted to meet him to pick up my Swaggerville shirts. I don't even want to know what he was on, but I swear it must have been something interesting for him to have introduced himself as "The Master of the Cosmic Universe and Ruler of Swaggerville"

I think the "court date" is essentially just the date he has to pay the fine by, I doubt he even has to be present. The more I think about it, the less I think they'd cut Hefney for getting fined for pot possession. Odell Willis had a problem with harder stuff than a few grams of dope when he was here and we didn't cut him over that. The worst thing is definitely that he didn't tell anyone.

I can't see the Bombers cutting Hefney. All this talk about being disappointed with his play? Why would they give him a 35k bonus with his new deal in January then. Suspend him a game without pay and be done with it.

Very strong username to post content correlation.

yup, same here. On top of that, I hate to say it but maybe they're UNDER moderating over there. 8 of the last 9 threads with replies in them were all created by that Access_Blue guy, who is very clearly a troll.

I don't mind the name "Redblacks", this new idea that they want to be the REDBLACKS is ridiculous though. Are they the Ottawa REDBLACKS? or the OTTAWA REDBLACKS?

I honestly thought you were joking.

That's funny. I posted there this morning to address something and I referred to our site as "that other forum" without the censor. I wonder if Colin thinks I tried to type in the name. I've been told by a few people that there are rumblings over there that we planted that Access_Blue guy to stir **** up. I can't see why we'd want (or need) to do that.

Wasn't Cox replaced at halfback by Dix? Just saying.

Well ... it hasn't been announced. But it's happening. I've seen them. It's the 80s retro.

Oh no, I have to get a new jersey this year. Whose career do I want to ruin now?

I'm honestly very excited to see JE. Would LOVE to see people eat some crow on him.
