You can put me in the "not sold" on Nichols boat. I like him. I thought he was pretty great last year. But his body of work is still so small and pre-2016 he was average at best. I'm eager to see what he does this year and I'm hoping for the best. But I've seen an awful lot of Bomber QBs who looked good one year and then like garbage the next.

Here ya go bud:

@Goalie is having a bad day.

Brings in average linebackers, average defensive linemen, average runningbacks... but hey they can scout the hell out of defensive backs. Better than nothing I suppose.

Won't be protected, won't be selected. Hope he comes to camp healthy next season.

It was very unusual. I can't recall ever seeing a #4 QB going in second in a pre-season game.

Franklin looked damn good running their offence against Calgary. I thought EDM might have some trouble in their receiving corps this season but it looks like they have a couple studs in Zylstra and D'haquille Williams. This will be a good test for our secondary. Kinda surprised that Reilly won't be playing, though. I still have my doubts about Edmonton. I'm not sold on their OL, running game, or secondary.

You can't possibly know whether they enjoy it or not.

I don't really care either but I'd prefer we scout good players rather than bad ones. I guess I'm just crazy that way.

Makes me question why we brought in such an inexperienced prospect if we weren't willing to put in some measure of time to allow him to improve. What were we expecting? That he would actually be quick with his decision-making after throwing the ball 10 times per game in college? I don't know. I've been really underwhelmed with our QB scouting since Walters took over. I don't see the point in bringing in long-shot oddball QBs like Robert Marve and Apodaca. And clearly we haven't been getting results out of it because none of them have stuck and all our current QBs have come from other teams.

It doesn't help when you have supposedly charitable Muslim groups like IRFAN-Canada operating with links to known terrorist groups.

The player/agent makes the call. They can say "We will not waive the NMC if the acquiring team does not honour it after they have acquired the player." Or they can waive it altogether. If it was fully in the acquiring team's control, they would never honour it.

I've seen the movie "Her" and I don't like where this is going!

Not necessarily. http://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/nhl-expansion-draft/2017/6/12/15781154/2017-nhl-expansion-draft-waive-nmc-no-movement-clause-marc-andre-fleury-dion-phaneuf-rules

Exactly why white people in general shouldn't be expected to "own" white supremacy any more than Muslims should be expected to "own" Islamic terrorism.

I understand why you would want to expose Enstrom. What I don't understand is why you would go through the trouble of getting him to waive his NMC then making a deal with Vegas not to select him. Why wouldn't you just skip the Enstrom NMC business, protect 7-3-1 and make a deal with Vegas not to select Myers?

Some do, some don't. Some white people speak out against white supremacy, some don't. I don't expect either group to do so because it's ridiculous to suggest that someone has responsibility to act for or against a cause specifically based on their race, religion, or anything else.

I don't understand. Why would the Jets ask Toby to waive if they were just going to ask Vegas not to take him? What's the point?

I've flown Air Transat direct to Cancun. I found the experience to be pretty decent. Certainly better than Sunwing.

What scares me about Lankford is that he had hands problems in Saskatchewan... and first thing he does here is bobble a punt. I don't see that issue going away. Could be a decent depth player but that kinda stuff costs games.

So we can keep Stafford on the roster

Why cannot Fogg do this!

I'll own white supremacy as soon as Muslims own Islamic terrorism. Same thing.

I like Roberson but Flanders is just way too good to cut. He would start for Saskatchewan IMO and maybe a couple other teams. He is a legit stud RB and to be honest I feel kinda bad for him being stuck behind Harris.
