sweep the leg

That's an awful trade and won't happen.. kane for neal doesn't have any legs to stand on at all... for one, we really don't have a need for neal, he's a rw, kane's a lw... buff for neal? sure but kane? i don't think so. Pens would have to add significant pieces to make that one happen. Neal can play both sides.

I follow a lot of Penguins reporters on twitter, & they all seem to think the Pens will try to make a move for Kane. Neal being the obvious asset to get it done. I didn't realize, but it sounds like Neal's not the most popular guy in the dressing room or with team staff. Malkin loves him, but a lot of other players don't. It'll be interesting to see how much trade value he has.

Disagree. This is more or less arguing for the sake of arguing b/c I don't think either will happen, but Willy has already been declared our starter. Hall hasn't been given any assurances that he'll be the backup. We gave something up to get Brohm, so there are clearly people in important positions who think highly of him.

He's not even close to our worst 1st round pick ever.

I'm excited to see what he can do this season as well. I don't know if this is a bounce back season for him though. I think he his bounce back was in the second half of last season. I'm prediciting both he & Moore go for 1k this season.

If he's bought out, I would definitely go after him. I just wouldn't want to trade for that contract.

I thought January was really good on Wednesday & Jones struggled, so naturally this is how the next practice would go...

Pencer has looked rock solid thus far in his career?

I think a few vet DB's may be on the bubble. Suber, Dunn, and Banks looked pretty craptastic out there. I highly doubt Banks is on the bubble, same with Suber. I'd be less surprised to see Suber cut, but I don't think either have lost their job yet.

Garvin is the first name I think of. He's hopelessly out of place as a db, & he did very little as a returner. I didn't think Fraser looked bad. I'm suprised at the number of people who have singled him out.

Agreed. I agree with most of the names other people are throwing out for who looked good. I'll add that I thought Morley looked good at centre. He made a big block that sprung Cotton for his big run. I also thought Neufeld looked ok at RT. IMO he looked better than Jones did. I also thought Derek Jones looked good. I'm not sure he was ever thrown at, but he always seemed to be close to his man, or at least he did when I was watching him.

Which of his tweets today can be considered trolling? He's giving his opinion, which is pretty much his job.

Isn't that Mike with the shades? One of my favourite gifs ever. Such a loser...

Oz was really good, or at least I thought it was when I watched it back then. I'd be interested in watching it again to see how well it's held up over time.

I heard we're not dressing any Canadian OL tonight.

January's dad had a heart attack. That's why he wasn't on the field yesterday.

I was watching camp shirtless & bathed in baby oil. I'd wink and bounce my pecs when they looked in my direction.

NHL Old Boys Club working here. Not at all. He said at his press conference that he'll only be there for two or three years at most. He's basically there to mentor Jason Botterill until he's ready for the job. Botterill is only 38.

I don't think it is up for debate that the Bombers were interested in both Burris and Collaros, since they made offers to both. They didn't sign either one, so whether that is "losing out" on them or not is really just a matter of semantics. This is a topic that hasn't been debated nearly enough.

Watched for about an hour or so this morning: -I was sitting near the media today. Knuckles asked "Freezer" if he was going to write something postive today. They all just laughed... -Willy & Hall look significantly better than the other qbs. I thought Hall looked the best, but they were close. Like what JesseJames said, Willy had two bad underthrows to wide open receivers in the endzone, but otherwise looked ok. -I think Hall's arm looks stronger this season. It's still clearly the weakest of them all, but the other guys all have very strong arms. I thought he had decent zip on his intermediate (20ish yards) throws. Not a cannon by anyways, but very passable. -Aaron Woods does seem to be getting open, but has a weird habit of stopping & then jumping for the ball. -Nick Moore looks good. Got open on a blitz play and had nobody between him & the goal line. Would have been a long td if they finished the play -Our D looks like Montreal's did last season. They're all on the line prior to the snap. It's looks confusing... -Cotton looks fast. Thought he looked better than Grigsby, but there's not much contact on the rbs so it's hard to tell for sure -Kelly had two drops & a fumble while I was there -Robertson & another db got lit into by a coach after a td pass. I'm not sure what they did wrong though, as it was another db who was covering the guy that scored Edit: -Kim Babij-Geisel & Sarah Orlesky are fairly hot in person. -We have a lot of fatties on our coaching staff

You're in the middle of a debate about it, so that probably means there is.

I'll give you overpriced, but I think the food's very good. plus their house beer is pretty solid too. I forgot about that. What is it called? I had one, but I can't remember if I liked it or not.

No, that's not it. The place I'm thinking of is a fair ways South down St. Mary's Rd. Two restaurants come to mind. Chianti's and Santa Anna. Santa Anna's has about 12 tables so I'm putting chips down on Chianti's. It was Santa Anna. I thought it was smaller than that, but I only went in to pick up my pizzas so I didn't spend much time in there. Either way, it was delicious.

Pretty much exactly how it went. Knuckles was mad at how unprofessional the organization was. It appeared the board was leaking the story so the Bombers would have no choice but to can Mack.
