sweep the leg

I'll bite. What did a Bomber player say to his roofing company after the LDC?

Our NI receiving depth now compared to the end of 2009 is night & day. We have 4 guys now who would have been the best NI receiver on that 2009 team. Elsewhere the improvement is marginal. We have two prospects on the OL that I have high hopes for, but they need to show something before I can consider them much of an upgrade. I'm also slightly concerned that Swiston hasn't been able to take the RG job from Morley yet.

Dunigan's argument was Pierce should have been replaced in the offseason, not now. I 100% agree with that. The part about Goltz was way off though. Mack's failings have to include an OL that is below average or worse at 4 out of 5 spots. Shannon Boatmen being the best import RT he can come up with after 4 years is a huge failing.

Seeing as how this is a GM thread, I figured I'd put it here. Lawless (I know...) said on H&L the other day he's heard from other league sources that Walters & Mack strongly disagreed on our 1st pick this year. Apparently Walters wanted Edem.

Who took a step back under him? January's become an allstar under him & Morley's the only other guy who was here when he arrived. He also turned a DT into a serviceable LG.

I assume Mack. That's who I'll pick as well b/c it will be hard to replace him after we win the Grey Cup this season...

What name did you choose?

This is a terrible idea, which is why it will probably happen.

Yes, Max Hall should be next in line. Under no circumstances should Pierce ever start a game for this team again. Mgmt already made themselves look foolish naming Pierce as our starter going into the season. Doubling down on the error by keeping him as our starter is much worse than handing the team over to unproven guys. I'd rather run with guys who we don't know much about than somebody we know well enough to be sure he isn't the answer.

All of his sentences are long and drawn out. That's just how he speaks.

Goltz basically said the same thing about Pierce last week, something like "this city is waiting for a consistent qb".

Where have you seen any?

That's pretty crazy if he really did just find out about this at the same time as us.

No kidding. Not the most well thought out statement.

Pierce: Hey Lulay, your wife is a lesbian Pierce: Hey Lulay, she's a dyke. I know, I know... Pierce: She's a lesbian, a lesbian, a lesbian....

Don't tell me you don't get the Slapshot reference.

Good decision. I just wish we had a competition in camp between young qb's (some combo of Brink, Elliott, Goltz, Hall, etc.) for the starting job, with Pierce pencilled in as the #2 right from the start.

Harris & Steele.

Is that guy on your shoulders wearing socks with his sandals and white jeans? What the hell's the matter with you TO guys?

Bunch of jerks with their big words and complete sentences. The Sun won't be my paper of choice until all of their pictures are turned into popups.

Do you mean we had his rights first, or that we considered trading for him?

Another note from twitter is that Jovon Johnson is doubtful this week. I hope whoever takes that spot this week knows it could be their job permanently with a good performance.

I have a hard time believing they'd be lying about a Goltz injury already.

I saw that too. Holy crap, wouldn't that be something? If this is the case we better get some new qb's in here rfn.
