What a stunning rebuke of the current Presidency delivered by John McCain’s daughter Meghan during his eulogy. Never thought I’d see a funeral used as a place for character assassination against a sitting Commander-in-Chief. Guess McCain didn’t care for the “my heroes don’t get shot down and captured “ jab during the campaign. The times we live in.

William Powell -OTT

By my calculations, the current results are: Player Strikes (Pick) BigBlue xxx (A. Harris - NO) TrueBlue4ever xxx (K.Jorden - YES) WinnipegGordo xxx (A. Harris - NO) biggjay xxxx (D. Daniels - YES) blueingreenland xxxx (LATE - but picked A. Harris anyway - NO) kelownabomberfan xxxx (J. Wilder Jr. - NO) MOBomberFan xxxx (B. Banks - NO) WBBFanWest xxxx (J. Wilder Jr. - NO) Eliminated Big Blue204 xxxxx (A. Harris - NO) Fire Kid xxxxx (A. Harris - NO) Jpan85 xxxxx (S.J. Green - NO) rebusrankin xxxxx (J. Wilder Jr. - NO) SPuDS xxxxx (NO PICK) Throw Long Bannatyne xxxxx (M. Reilly - NO) Tough week, only 2 correct, and almost half the remaining field eliminated.

They should make a tape of Randle's attempt on the Jorden TD on "how not to tackle". Body checking belongs in hockey, try wrapping up with your arms. That was beyond awful.

Aww, did I hurt your feelings? Play better.

Funny, no one criticizing Calgary for their failing short yardage passing scheme.

Win the turnover battle and the time of possession.

Kamar Jorden

Esk passing attack vs Als D makes this obvious, but which weapon to choose? Let's take Duke Williams.

Cactus would respond "A man who is an institution, or instead maybe should be in one".

Sorry, was channeling Cactus Jack with the name snafu. And was going off of Bob Irving's radio call.

Honestly, even though he's a prima donna, I feel bad for Carter here. No denying his talent, and Jones throwing him on defence after an all-star season as a receiver was just plain dumb. Then to find out from his teammates and Jones' response when Carter contacts him - well, no one deserves that treatment.

1. Bighill - could Durant quitting the team be the biggest move of the year? Without it we can't afford to sign a star MLB. 2. Harris - the engine that drives the offence 3. Medlock - 44.7 yard NET punting avg. (same as his overall avg!) is unheard of. Controlled the field position battlr. HH - loved Petermann's YAC yards and blocking contributions, but give it to 3rd string QB Bryan Burnett for making a tackle (and a good one at that) on special teams!!

It's almost a badge of honour to still be in this thing and not have picked Andrew Harris at least once yet, but that day will come. Just not today. William Powell for Ottawa.

I remember Omarosa giving an interview shortly after Trump was elected saying how everyone who crossed him during the election and doubted him should beware, because he is motivated to prove everyone wrong, payback is a b*tch, and revenge is sweet (at the time she was on his staff and said these words with glee). It's obvious by his comments and actions that he holds grudges and vows revenge on any perceived "enemy", much like Nixon had his list. In fact, much of his Presidency seems to be bent on dismantling anything Obama did, and I often think it's solely because Obama humiliated him publicly at the correspondent's dinner [where he mocked Trump's whole birther movement by displaying his long form certificate, then showing a clip of "The Lion King" as his actual birth video, while sarcastically trashing Trump's decision-making with false praise based on his "Celebrity Apprentice" firings (this was the same night the Bin Laden raid had been authorized on Obama's orders)]. All this to say, in light of his latest public spat with LeBron James, I wonder who is on Trump's enemies list, and why? It would be long, but for starters: Hillary (for calling him a puppet?) Colin Kaepernick (for kneeling, or is it the colour of his skin?) Comey (for not finding enough to jail Hillary, or not burying the Russia probe) Mueller, Sessions, Manafort, Rosenstein (Russia probe) Sean Spicer (not lying well enough to justify Trump's contradictions, having a conscience) Cohen (no loyalty, unsealing the vault) LeBrom (see Kaepernick) Seth Meyers (correspondent's dinner joke) Stephen Colbert (every night's monologue) CNN, Jim Acosta ("fake news", a.k.a. criticizing Trump's presidency) Vincente Fox , Angela Merkel, EU ;ustin Trudeau (not blindly buying in to "America First" policies) So who else?

I swear I didi not see your post before making the same switch. Great minds....

6 game injured list. Great. Let's switch to Kamar Jordan since it's the only game left.

Eric Rogers - Calgary

Desperate, yes. Guilty conscience, I'd say not so much. He has high levels of arrogance combined with ignorance, but he lives in an alternate reality of wealth where he does what he wants (remember the whole Billy Bush "grab em by the [you know what], I forced myself on her like a b*tch, you get to kiss them, do whatever - when you're a big star you get away with whatever" and his "I could shoot somebody in Times Square and my approval would go up 5 points" mentality). He is now feeling heat he can't buy his way out of like his past lawsuits, and it upsets his sense of superiority. He has now flat out denied knowing about the Trump Tower meeting in advance. If Cohen taped the one meeting, got to think he taped many others, so if there is a tape of that session proving Trump DID know, then we finally have a direct contradiction that Mueller can act on and that COULD lead to impeachment for lying (still, it won't happen as long as Republicans hold the balance of power). Trump has always said "no collusion" as his go to, which isn't a 100% denial of his knowledge of meetings, just his spin that nothing of what happened ever benefitted him and his rise to the Presidency, so this flat out denial could sting worse. And we saw his backtracking on his intelligence community flip-flop after the Helsinki disaster. He reads from a prepared script saying "I 100% percent believe the intelligence that the Russians meddled" then looks up and adds "among many others, who can say, quite possible, and none of it affected the race". His ego is so large and so fragile he cannot bring himself to even allow the possibility that his election win is tainted buy outside influence, and he is sinking himself because of it. He has no conscience in my mind. He is a full blown egomaniac if not a borderline sociopath.

I'm still floating. The Duke came through!

But how dare you kneel during the anthem.

At this rate we are going to have to change the rules to force people to pick a different player every week. Even though I haven't picked Harris yet, I am going with Duke Williams.

3rd and short advice: 2 yards? Harris, or field goal. Inches? Run straight, Strev!

Thanks much. I will roll the dice with Eric Rogers.

Didn't see anything on Rogers past the "one game injured list from week 4" update. Bo is apparently "questionable" for this week, listed as day-to-day rather than week-to-week by Stampeder staff, and was practicing already yesterday. Regardless, it's Montreal so seems like a good bet to pick a horseman this week.
