I'd expect Oliviera to be signed soon. Augustine is likely out the door unfortunately. Lawler can't accept any offers from other teams yet. Free agency opens next week.

I want more than one 1000yrd wr this year!

Saw a video of from the city councilor for Point Douglas supporting the convoy. One of her main points was that EVERYONE should be able to have a choice when it comes to their body. I'm not sure I understand these people anymore...who doesn't have a choice? Are there literal mobs running around and holding others down to be vaxxed? Am I not aware of military forces holding people in custody until they are vaxxed? What am I missing?

If you got a few minutes, take a read.

And then all of a sudden....he couldnt

I watched an interview with Lucky recently. And that was 100% on him. Maybe the team doctors turned a bit of a blind eye....but it wasn't like they dragged him out there. He very much wanted to get back to playing.

I'll be shocked if Bailey goes elsewhere. I know he loved that wpg gave him a shot and more or less a home.

250k says Sorry, pretty loudly though. I bet the gm etc have talked about a change of culture as well.

sounds like they did! Offer of 200k from the Lions was on the table. Couture chose wisely

4 of the 5 starting Oline back. 2 backups that have been in the system are back! both Lines looking good right now!! Just get me a Stove and we'll really be cooking!!!

A show of solidarity like that would have been REAL nice to have in March of 2020, and continuing forward. It's amazed me just how poorly communication teams have handled this thing.

Oh forsure, it was bad. I just think Reilly did nothing to help the situation and likely made it worse.

This has been interesting to watch. If you compare this protest to similar protests that have been put on by, let's call them, more left leaning groups. The Right and Left have basically flipped sides....as in, the left want the cops to come in to clear them out, call all the protestors vile names etc and for the most part are brushing aside most if not all of the protestors demands/points etc. But when it was BLM or pipeline protests the Left was aware that there would be bad apples present and assured the media etc that it was these "agents" or "bad apples" that were responsible for any damage to property or violence etc. I think it'd be naïve to assume there are no agent provocateurs' present in ottawa right now. I also think it'd be silly to assume that everyone there truly wants the best for Canada and it's people. There's always going to be **** heads when large groups gather. Basically I just find it odd how the two bases (Left and Right) have essentially flipped sides on protestors but don't seem to realize it. They're essentially making the same arguments the other side made just months(or years) ago. But at that time, the other side was just an insane group of (hippies/antifa/rednecks/facists/etc). Something else I've thought about is IF the nazi symbols being used are in fact via agent provocateurs', what does it say that 1)nazi symbols aren't present in typical Left leaning protests. (Why only when it's the right? I think we all know why...but you'd think the organizers would be prepared for this and address it immediately and with aggression.) And 2) I have yet to see/hear anyone from a leadership group of this protest denounce those symbols or people. Maybe it's happened and I just haven't seen it, I don't watch cable news and I haven't seen anything on any SM accounts. I hope that it's happened there and it just didn't make it's way to SM. And I do not accept "ignore those people" as a solution. I've seen a few protestors say this is what they've been told...and I would not accept that as a solution to nazis. I would also warn others here to not take videos/tweets/pictures etc as gospel around this thing. They don't tell the whole story. I know of at least a few video clips that on the surface look/sound very bad...but in reality were tongue and cheek rather than hateful. Saying that, I do believe there is a large amount of information showing this protest to be what most in Canada assume it is.

The issue around COVID (that've I've heard anyway...don't take this as gospel) is that because it spreads so well before symptoms appear...it could become stronger without impacting it's ability to spread.

I keep seeing this online. Owners don't sign players. We know this right?

I get that Reilly is a HOFer etc. But I continue to believe he was one of the main reasons they suffered so much last year. There was very little use of check downs by Reilly. He held on to the ball for far too long a lot of the time. Even while underneath routes where open. I rewatched our beat down of them this weekend and there were plenty of times where Reilly had options to go to, and he just wouldn't pull the trigger....then got sacked or had to rush a throw and it was inaccurate. There were also a good amount of drops. But I think with a different QB that knows to go to the check down early and often or at least doesn't think homerun every time, and having an all star receiver group, that O can produce.

I'm not sure I get the over pay for Carey. What has he done exactly?

Rogers would be nice....as a #3. Guy just doesn't stay healthy. I'm not sure he's ever played a full season before. I'd prefer a younger rec that still has some potential untapped.

If Lawler is gone. Hopefully Stove is back and we can make a push for Weineke

I hope we match BCs offer. Or do something close to it to keep Lawler. This team has gone too long without a star WR. We can't let one walk after 1 yr. Saying that, if BC signs him...what a rec core.

Why would you put Walker in the top 5? Even Bray? But no Whitehead? Top 5 in no particular order for me, begeleton, whitehead, Lawler, Lewis and Burnham.

He's a rider or Elk before March.

"The Greatest loss is wasted time." ALI (R.A) I saw this quote today, and it made immediately think of this convoy.

Theo Fluery told Fox news that 1.5 Million people are heading to Ottawa right now!

I've wondered this as well. I spent about a decade working in that industry and a lot of truckers could be described as loners (not in a negative way). Live almost entirely in their trucks, have small families if any at all. And even when dropping/picking up trailers there is minimal if any contact with someone else...and even then it's mostly outside. But I firmly believe this protest is 100% about the $$. Someone is going to be making a lot of it through this and it's not going to change a damn thing. I feel sorry those dumb enough to join in/donate to it...well not that sorry.
