  2. yes. Last year it was a good idea to take the running back of whatever team was playing Winnipeg.
  3. The problem with the CFL pool vs. NFL is the lack of information. I lost count of how many guys I started last year that ended up being last minute deletions from the roster. In the NFL, there is so much info on a player and whether he is going to start that you can make a pretty informed call. Not so in the CFL. Also in the NFL if one guy goes down there are a lot of other options to choose from, in the CFL pool not nearly as many. Anyway, other than that, it is a ton of fun and I enjoyed it immensely. Let's just hope that the TSN guys pay a bit more attention to the injuries this year.
  4. Noeller - if you see Bauming ask him how the new special teams coach is working out so far. Thanks.
  5. http://www.tsn.ca/mcdavid-tops-tsn-s-final-draft-ranking-1.300634 If the Jets stay true to the board, then we're getting Merkley at 17. I'd be happy with that pick. If Bittner is still around at 25 I'd grab him, otherwise Jake Debrusk. http://www.tsn.ca/jake-debrusk-left-wing-1.293927
  6. Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming Jhomo Gordon making some nice catches today. If he can pair that up with his burning speed, he'll be a nice option at receiver. #Bombers
  7. Just watch this show: All your questions will be answered.
  8. I sure hope we're paying him what he's worth. Kyle might be wanting to renegotiate the contract and up it by a few thou.
  9. yeah no one does it like Wally does. Even when he was with Calgary. Allen Pitts, Geroy, Barrin Simpson, and now McCallum.
  10. That's what I was thinking too. Count Chocula 2.0.
  11. I hear Hurl is looking good. Might even be penciled in to start because he's being paid starter money.
  12. Much appreciated Noeller
  13. OK look out! KBF is in the hizz-ouse!!
  14. Significant brain trauma?
  15. You can say that again.
  16. I don't see the allure of moving Randle to 'backer/dime. He was consistently good last season on the corner, someone we could really trust out there. I'd much rather trust Randle and Bucknor (or Adams considering the ratio) out there, then Adams + Bucknor as the duo. I think our defensive line is going to be really good this year. I think Waggoner and Hurl at WIL and MLB could be good enough there. I guess it depends where you want to play the newbies. Personally, even if Adams looks good, I don't want a new guy plus Bucknor. That seems dangerous. I'm more willing to gamble on the Waggoner and Hurl as the new guys inside, but again, just personal preference on the gamble. Wow sounds like Waggoner is the real deal! Good job getting him Kyle!
  17. Our media is embarrassing. Holy hell. I'm comfortable putting a twenty down it was Weicek. I couldn't see who asked the question, but it sounded like Bauming, which would surprise me because he's usually on the ball. But could have been someone else too. I watched the interview. The question comes at around the 4 minute mark. Talk about stupid. And trying to cover it with the whole excuse that they aren't allowed to talk to co-ordinators. Just pathetic. Shame on whoever that clown is.
  18. Did Lawless inform MOS that Tburg disagrees with this assessment?
  19. Emry's best days are behind him. I am not surprised he's playing on a Taman team.
  20. Yeah that one had me laughing. But of course, if you've never heard of Moose Jaw, how would you know? A more logical answer would have been "Moose Jav".
  21. Time for the young guns to step up.Why is Goossen not in the conversation to start at RG? I thought he played well last year and should be ready to take another step forward this year. Yeah that's why I said "young guns" - plural.
  22. I really liked this part: Good to hear that O'Shea is encouraging and helping the local coaches. That's class.
  23. Much of the unknown revolves around the cities. These players know about New York, Los Angeles or Dallas but have never heard of Winnipeg, Hamilton or Saskatchewan. Canada is just a giant frozen wasteland full of non-threatening weird-speaking dog-sled driving hosers that Americans spend 2 seconds a year expending mental energy on. I don't know how many times I've spoken to American visitors who are walking around Kelowna dumb-founded that we have electricity and roads and Burger King franchises, just like them. And that we have periods of time in the year that we aren't shivering under snow banks. And some of these people have been from Spokane. Whenever there is a "Canada" topic on Jeopardy, it's always the last one chosen. Contestants can answer questions on Greek philosophers, classical music composers and nuclear physics, but stare dumb-founded at the camera if asked what province Toronto is in. Or a name of one prime minister we've ever had. Or what sport is revered in Canada that involves a puck, a net, and ice. Alex's disgusted looks are always classic too. http://globalnews.ca/news/2033286/watch-jeopardy-contestant-fails-canadian-geography-loses-it-all/
