  1. Bomber's linebackers are F Renaud J Briggs S Gauthier Jervaris Jones Thomas Miles S Knox I. Wild. K Wilson. Any reason to think either of Jones or Wilson would be around as good as or better than Henoc?
  2. one thing I thought about today, many of these Trump associated people would rather make a plea bargain, than depend on Trump to help them out with a pardon, or sentence reduction. Who in their right mind would depend on Trump for something so important. Bush/Cheney helped "Scooter" Libby I think. ( when they revealed the identity of Valerie Plame, undercover CIA agent, working on Iran, nuclear proliferation as revenge for her husband exposing their yellowcake lies) Exposing a high ranking CIA undercover agent for nothing more than political gain. Republican party is so full of patriots.
  3. I think Laine might need to work on his passing. quite a few of the Jets (Wheeler!) make amazing passes, through very small openings, but Patrick, a couple of times last night, was kind of off in that dpt. One bad pass was close to a breakaway the wrong way.
  4. I just read that he ran 4.75 40, at his size... and made a nice run after catch the one time I remember him being thrown to. didn't drop the ball. Who am I to critcize, but I think that LaPolice should have tried to find a way to use him..... maybe he'll be used to better advantage in Edmonton. Anyway now we have Kienan.
  5. read this today related to your post.... https://eritreahub.org/israeli-court-rules-eritrean-draft-dodgers-should-be-granted-asylumEritrea is a violent and repressive dictatorship where obligatory conscription gets easily extended for many A Justice Ministry’s immigration tribunal in Tel Aviv ruled that an Eritrean draft dodger should be entitled to asylum based on international conventions, rising the hopes of those fearing deportation into third countries.
  6. Trump must have set a record for most number of staff charged with criminal offences. By a large margin. All in just over one year. The absolutely mildest possible interpretation is that he has simply terrible judgment about who to surround himself with. This would explain why he has had so many problems running a business. Hiring terrible staff doesn't work.
  7. Laine passes a fraction off The Kings are overmatched, Jets are too fast for them no chat
  8. wheeler gets a fifteen second rest then back out
  9. kings another dirty team
  10. edit
  11. You sound a bit like an " I walked to school, and home, it was uphill both ways, when I was a kid" guy. Do you think pro sports teams don't have people doing this stuff? I just looked up Kyle Dubas Toronto Maples Leafs assistant General Manager described in Toronto Star as I would be amazed if the Jets didn't have such a guy in their ranks. But I agree, a lot of sports media guys do seem to have very high opinions of themselves and their wisdom/knowledge/pronouncements. And it is irritating.
  12. If winning mattered in the NFL , perennial loser Dallas Cowboys (have not won their division since 1995) would not be no.1 fan favourite team year in and year out. The number one thing that matters in the NFL is making money.
  13. Cause he's made multi millions of dollars, and cause he's now doing other things. As for him being shitty, he was one play from winning the superbowl, his record with the forty niners last season he played for them, was about the same as the guy they just gave 70 million dollars to. So probably not that.
  14. The chance of Kaepernick playing in the CFL is pretty slender.
  15. Beautiful tune, thanks have not heard of her. She is really good.
  16. comment at 3downnation Gainer the Gopher thread "Gainer as a GM > Kavis Reed."
  17. There are very large numbers of refugees all over Africa, displaced within their own country, or escaping from one country to another, in Africa. Including the people mentioned in the article. Uganda has taken hundreds of thousands in. Africa is basically a forgotten place. For instance "Since 2015, more than 400,000 refugees and asylum-seekers have fled Burundi, escaping human rights abuses, political uncertainty and the related humanitarian crisis." An echo of the slaughter in Rwanda.
  18. why would the jets want this guy ? How would this help them? TSN
  19. There's a good list of remaining free agents at 3down nation. some well known Canadian D lineman there. I wonder if Bear Woods is about ready to call it quits. How many concussions has he had? a couple? maybe he's thinking it's not worth continuing to play, or at least not for less than a lot of money. http://3downnation.com/2018/02/18/complete-look-remaining-cfl-free-agents/
  20. What current lineup weakness do the Jets need to fix? No 1 in their division. Played well all season. Beating the best teams. Winning against lesser teams. even through a series of injuries to their top players, using backups who are now starters. The team appears to be really pulling together, there appears to be great camaraderie. I don't see why they need to do anything.
  21. some local radio guys think the Jets need to make a trade.
