do or die

So, House Speaker Ryan, the so-called "moral conscience" of the Republican party declares Trump a racist... but supports him anyway. What a telling statement of present republican values...... Ryan, McCain, Christie, Rubio, etc..... all of them simply swallow the multiple insults and the smears and just fall right into line. A collective group of moral cowards. How pathetic........

Hell, I get excited about merely evaluating the horseflesh........

Gearing up for 49th season......and as always, some things I will be looking for: More physical approach, on both sides of the line - really got pushed around too much, last year The big play capabilities of Harris, Dressler and Smith Who is the Safety? What kind of sets, and who is who, with all these LBs? Quicker tempo (as in much quicker) and spreading the field on O Punting

If Harris somehow helps this team, the laugh is on me....gladly.

That's alright....we are well used to vanilla on offense, round these parts........

Given the M.O. of Hardaway....and the temperament of Jones - this could drag on for quite a while.

For immediate release: June 1, 2016 The Saskatchewan Roughriders are pleased and relieved to announce that current player Jordan Reaves has been hired as a roving consultant to the Assistant Vice President of Football Operations and Administration Jeremy O'Day. According to General Manager and Head Coach Chris Jones : "This move will enhance our front office, giving us greater flexibility and versatility to cope with unknown situations, as they occur."

Thinking back to the good ole days, when Neufeld and Picard were going to turn our OL around........

Only works in the Republic of Jones, I assume....

Offered the bus driver $1.50, this morning, as fare.........and explained that it was merely an "market adjustment" He could not grasp that simple concept.....

Didn't hurt Allan Pitts's career any.......

Thought things might get somewhat more sane, around RF......after they got rid of Lyle E. Style..... and his illegitimate offspring Area 51. No such luck....

Been reading this Jill St. John thread..... Spinning meat shields vs evil agendas...... This whole notion of the Riders somehow protecting the sanctity of the league, by defending some sort of an appropriate market level, during these negotiations....is literally jumping the shark backwards. Entertaining stuff.....

I remember the good ole days....when we scored a lot of touchdowns....and the fans provided more than enough..... for TD celebrations... But now everyone needs it spoon fed to them......

Still remember a road game in TO, with Lapo....when we kicked 2 field goals....from inside the 5 yd line.

Yup, that would be too much like Bomber teams of past years......

Well, there is always a Gotha G. V. bomber......but would have to be somewhat larger....

Way, way past time, that we recruited some real stud import OL types.... while pursuing the long term plan (enough quality Canucks on line) Hopefully, this year is the charm....

Let me take over from Captain Blue.....and I will gun that plane, up and down the field.........

Uneasy is the head that wears the crown......

That guy? He is simply the gin bearer...... He came aboard, when Wade left for bigger and better things....

If it ain't broke....don't re-brand it. It has never ceased to amaze me, how bloody long it took to: a. Identify the error b. Correct said error

Depth and potential starters, down the road, on both sides of the ball. Pretty good draft.

If things go south again this year....may hire DC to do the Odds and Sods.....
