Welcome back Eskimo fan. "Time for me to move on. I'll always have soft spot but since the Oilers are my hockey team now, I'm golng to make the Eskimos my football team. Most likely will take a year or two to get fully emotionally involved with the team, but at least it is a team I can get behind. " -KptKrunch, Oct 31 2015

I could see them starting 3 Canadians also. Chambers, Demski, Bagg. Add Chiles and you only need one good rookie. Maybe Jeremy Kelley is the guy.

Fart man

Right. I meant to focus on the depth but I got carried away about the starters. I mean, you can say the depth isn't great but do other teams have 10 quality Canadian starters? Once you get down into that 7-10 range, every team is going to be questionable. Say we start Goossen, Neufeld, Chungh, Kohlert, Harris, Westerman, Shologan. Anyone goes down, we have Hurl, Bucknor, JFG, Keeping, and Thomas on the bench. All guys who have started games, in some cases dozens of games. Are they ever going to be allstars? No... but they can be pretty damn good backups to fill in for a few games. If Harris or Westerman go down, we don't have a direct backup for them so you have to shuffle the lineup a bit. But the other spots are covered. OL is a little thin but the draft should help with that.

I think we're in the best position we've been in that regard for quite some time. In 2014 our 7th and 8th best Canadians were guys like Jake Thomas and Teague Sherman. I like those guys but they should be farther from the starting lineup than that. Now we've got Hurl, Bucknor, JFG, Keeping all outside our starting 7.... And still a couple high draft picks to come, along with Thomas and Sherman still being here. The starters are way better than they were, but the depth is coming along too. And it's not just a small improvement in the starters... Check out our top 5 Canadians now compared to who they may have been in 2014: Westerman, Harris, Shologan, Chungh, Kohlert Vs Watson, Greaves, Morley, Bucknor, Kohlert Gotta feel good about that!

We have a couple DBs that were around last year in Kearney and Posey and multiple rookies to choose from... it will be one of them. I just don't think Harris has the speed to play safety and I don't think he's even being considered for that spot. And I don't think we use a Canadian either.

Why would we play Macho Harris at safety? I don't think that's even a remote possibility to be honest. He's here as SAM depth. If we get through training camp healthy, Harris will be the 6th DB or cut.

Small, sensible cuts like this do add up over time and have less of a negative effect than cutting whole departments or services. While I agree that this is small change, that's where the savings will be found for the most part. NDP solved problems by throwing wads of cash around indiscriminately. Prudent fiscal management can go a long way and it starts in the little details.

That's nice that you were told how to vote and follow it blindly but that doesn't make it the "right way" to vote. The party is a huge part of the consideration. Your MLA has very little impact on the actual area you live in. If you want something done locally, you talk to your city councilor.

Bokhari was a disaster! I am so disappointed in the Liberal party

If it included the weed I would vote for them for sure.

I've been bombarded in River Heights. Home visits and phone calls by the PCs and Liberals. I'm in an apartment building and they keep getting in and slipping stuff under my door, hanging placards on my doorknob, etc. They come knocking at my door, surely expecting a retiree like the majority of the people in my building, instead they get a fired up burly 28 year old ready to challenge them on their platforms. Very satisfying. I even got a flyer from the Green candidate, it said 100% recycled material but I still thought it was ironic that they would be handing out paper. PC Tracey Maconachie is working really hard to win it but the support for Jon Gerrard is just too strong I think.

Wouldn't mind taking a look at Melvin Abankwah... Huge hype after last year's combine but of course he was one of the swath of draft eligible players to test positive for PEDs.

Heath Slater BABAY!!!!

Speaking of suspensions, Titus is supposed to be back. I wonder how he will be treated upon his return.

Viktor's like "Oh great thanks Konnor." Not sure we see Viktor again until Konnor comes back. Maybe some squash matches on Main Event or Superstars. I wonder if Social Outcast will bring in a new member to replace Rose. That's a big hole in WWE's hottest stable.

Just as a sidenote, I was at that tracksuit game and there were alot of tracksuits, including the one I was wearing, and I didn't see anyone get hassled. Not saying it didn't happen but I didn't witness it.

That's fine, you can re-sign Keeping or find an equivalent player easily in free agency. Goossen just extended through 2018 in December. Neufeld is here through 2017.

They're not going to stick Johnny Adams at wide side corner, that would be a waste. I imagine he will probably be playing weakside halfback.

I'd be surprised if he doesn't at least try the NFL. It's just something the team has to deal with. They will draft an OL with one of their top 2 picks thisthis year, maybe another one in a later round, plus drafting guys next year. I also believe Goossen, Neufeld and Keeping are under contract for next year already. It would suck to lose Chungh but what can you do? Great young Canadians are going to want to take their shot at the NFL.

If this eliminates the need for the officials to huddle up after every second play like they do now, I'm all for it.

I absolutely love the "Bond" character. It suits him perfectly and I think it was exactly what he needed at this point. It's unfortunate that he's bald but so were Stone Cold and Hogan. It can be overcome.

If their non GC profit is actually 4 mil, imagine what they will pull in when the Team is winning.

I wouldn't mind that. I can't see AJ winning the title so quickly and also can't see him losing clean to Reigns right after he lost clean to Y2J at Rasslemania. Personally I would have Cesaro in the WWE title picture and AJ going for the IC but that's just me.

Just bustin your balls
