  1. Paul McCallum's "personal matter" is an aversion to running. No, it was the HC's aversion to Canadian kickers: From Lowell Ulrich's blog: http://blogs.theprovince.com/2015/06/04/lions-ask-mccallum-to-retire/ Good job, lions. I love that they are replacing one 'quality Canadian' with 2 unproven Americans. I hope we are looking back on 23 years of Lirim one day.
  2. You're going to go to the link Mike provided. Click Register Now. Once you're registered and logged in, look for Join a Group under the 'Social' menu. Find morning big blue, enter the password, voila you're in the group. ONE OF US. ONE OF US. Each week you're going to choose a lineup. If I recall correctly, you'll choose a QB, RB, 2 receivers, a flex, a defense, and a ST. One cool element is the salary cap; each player has a salary value, and you have a weekly cap you have to say under. Salary values I believe are based off of last year's performance. Bowman was a hell of a bargain last year, but won't be this year... It's lots of fun. Keep an eye on bye weeks and injuries and you'll do great.
  3. Came here to read about a sale on pens. I am not a smart man.
  4. http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/multimedia/video/sports/free-press-blue-bombers-training-camp-report-day-3-305890741.html Wiecek and Tait talk a lot about the changes made to our D and take a couple shots at Etcheverry in the process. Someone makes a nice grab (I think) in the background starting at 2:00
  5. I agree that doing it at game speed would be pretty challenging. It's the opportunistic plays a player can make after the whistle or against a prone player that I'm thinking of. Think Kuale vs Buck or Kadri elbowing Fraser on a routine play. edited for english
  6. Do you ever worry that another team might target an injury if they knew specifically what to target? I'm not sure how unrealistic this may be, but it seems to me if a team knew a left shoulder or a wonky elbow was hurting they might go out of their way to whack it a couple times. I can understand not disclosing the details of an injury. I think an organization that holds cards close to their chest has the right idea.
  7. Oh glad you clarified I was thinking the one near Polo Park. I was gonna walk out of there all
  8. It really is the greatest time of year.
  9. Sorry, I can't make it. Since you and DoD can't make it I guess these two knuckleheads will suffice.
  10. I don't live far from there but have a very early morning on Sunday. No promises, but I'd be happy to buy two of my favorite contibutors a filthy filthy craft beer.
  11. Pretty cool to be this close. I like being up a bit higher to have a better angle on the field, and the novelty of just wandering the concourse without being packed in ass to elbow is missing somewhat... but it's far from a deal breaker. Just glad to get to see some football up close after a long off season. There is a hawk nest on top of one of the field lights, mama hawk keeps circling us eyeballing the crowd, so there is something to watch during the slow points. Though if you ask my wife, Graig Newman is plenty to look at on his own. I'll have to take her word for it.
  12. Is Ryan Reaves there too? I read he was at rookie camp one day watching Jordan.If he is here he is really laying low, I haven't seen him and there isn't much of anywhere to hide out here haha
  13. Beautiful day for watching some football. Wade is chatting up some fans while Mr. Reaves is patrolling the sidelines snapping pics of Jordan. Saw a couple really bad shotgun snaps back to back during scrimmage, I think it was Goosen. Jordan Reaves was making tough catches, as was Feoli-G. Denmark looks great will not be surprised when he is our leading receiver again this year. Moore caught basically everything except one easy slant that he clearly regretted. Lattanzio is a block of muscle I could see him as a FB I'd love to see him throw a block. Nice to see all the big Canadian LBs. Sad to see someone not named Johnny Sears in 0. Yantz doesn't look out of place. Portis didn't throw as much as he ran but boy he can run. Brohm looks great. Willy got the ball out quick. Marve didn't have lots to throw to. D looks better than the O but that's typical. O and D are off doing their own thing now. Hope to see more scrimmage.
  14. He's been on It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia a couple times now. Tried to find a clip but no luck so far. He shows up first in season 5 episode 7. Hilarious!
  15. Thanks everyone for your reports
  16. Meanwhile, quarterback Dan LeFevour, signed last winter as a free agent from the Ticats, hasn’t cleared his physical and won’t participate in the start of camp. LeFevour’s season was terminated by a torn knee ligament. The Als hope he has recovered in time for the team’s second exhibition game, June 18. http://montrealgazette.com/sports/football/cfl/montreal-alouettes/the-snap-alouettes-sign-three-more-draft-picks
  17. It is, I'm watching it right now
  18. I bet we'll get to see something like that at the start of each practice, but a few minutes in all recording devices will have to be shut off...
  19. I'm with Portage Mutual. I had damage to my roof a couple years ago in one of our wicked-bad wind storms. There was no fussing around with my claim, everything was done in a single phone call as I remember it. I've been told not to go with Wawanesa, once by a real estate agent and then again by a former customer of theirs. I can't remember the details, but supposedly they can take a lot longer to process claims or can be more complicated to deal with. Just what I heard, I can't say I've personally dealt with them. I haven't compared them for a very long time, but when I bought my home in 2006 rates and coverage were pretty similar from institution to institution... a few dollars/month difference. If you find otherwise let me know!
  20. WE COULD HAVE HAD WAUD AT 11th OVERALL!!! THANKS KYLE!!! I'm angry with you for saying this because for some reason I can't tell that this is a joke. Am I doing it right?
  21. ...and Clarence Denmark, our best receiver the past 2 years. edit: how could I forget Bryant Turner!?!
  22. Yes, and thanks to our position in the draft order we beat out 3 other teams also willing to give up first rounders.
  23. This has all the makings of a masterpiece... boring super powers, generic bad guys, inspirational girlfriend pep-talks, and I'm guessing at least one montage involving costume changes. I will set the bar low and perhaps it will surprise me.
