Some tidbits here and a bit of love for Brady O......

Interesting tidbit from Coach Hall about Rutledge getting pulled in the last game: DC Richie Hall on Donald Rutledge, Jr. being replaced by Redha Kramdi last week: “He’s done a good job. One of the conversations I had with Rut is sometimes as a young player you hit the wall. We’ve played 15 games so far, plus two pre-season games, that’s almost two college seasons. It’s just long. It’s a grind and until you go through the grind you don’t know it. “We gave him the opportunity to sit back and just observe things from a different perspective. I’m not concerned regarding him. He’s got 15 games experience as far as playing with us and he’s going to be OK. It’s one of those that you don’t experience until you go through it. We talk about it and we talk about it, but until you physically go through it you don’t know.”

Wasn't sure where to put this kinda stuff, but this thread seems close enough. Nice chat here with Our Man Tait and FredEx:

hey it's Bruce Boudreau!

TORONTO (October 5, 2022) – The Canadian Football League (CFL) has announced: Winnipeg Blue Bombers defensive tackle Ricky Walker has been fined for an illegal block on Saskatchewan Roughriders offensive lineman Terran Vaughn. As per league policy, the amount of the fine was not disclosed.

I'm pretty far removed from it all (aside from what I can gather on Twitter) but a few people on my FB have been pushing for that Rick Shone (??) but last I saw in polling numbers, he's an after-thought...

Further to this, McManis out 4 weeks...

Just a FWIW....LOLks injury report for today: Emmanuel Arceneaux WR Ankle Limited Mike Beaudry QB Healthy Scratch Full Jake Ceresna DL Ankle Limited Ed Gainey DB Ankle DNP Deon Lacey LB Healthy Scratch Full Kenny Lawler WR Shoulder DNP Kai Locksley WR Shoulder Full Cole Nelson OL Illness DNP Jordan Reaves LB Healthy Scratch Full Malik Tyne DL Healthy Scratch Full

Jeeze, just reading that, that looks a LOT better.....

Yeah, you know if little else, Darby will be a veteran on the side of the field that really needs one. One rookie over there is enough, but 2 was problematic. He can be a big help to whichever of Holm/Parker starts the other spot.

oh man, I saw your comment on the sidebar, without the Tweet for context, and I panicked........

big loss for a vaunted D.... curious about McManis, who went down last week as well....

he had 2... was not necessarily a guy to show up in the big game. As has been told many times, he enjoyed Grey Cup Week a lot....

paper transactions

also, of note, Darby expected tomorrow:

Agudosi seems like more of a nice bonus, than an important piece. Like, Woogie and Ellingson would be the Top 2 pieces to get back, but Agudosi could be a rotational piece that would be a nice extra option.

takes a queen to know a queen...

there are certain guys who don't need to practice. Getting "visual/virtual reps" is fine.....
