Guest J5V Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 How good would TJ Thorpe look on this team right now? Man, if people could just park the egos it sure would be sweet to see him playing here. Guy was a stud. Still can't believe we couldn't find a way to keep him.

And yet he's still unsigned by any other team. Rod Black, SPuDS, Noeller and 3 others 6

Its a pet peeve of mine.. They all do it. No body catches everything (except for maybe Julio Jones... but I'm fairly sure he's some kind of robot and not an actual human)... even Mr Sticky Hands Odell Beckham has been dropping some easy ones this year...

Of course, it might just be that it takes time to go through the frenzied bidding war that must be going on for the services of a guy with 300 yards receiving and no td's. Don't see guys with stats like that come onto the open market too often. Rod Black, blue_gold_84 and SPuDS 3

There was always an idiot or group of idiots that wanted them cut or fired. Hell we are 10-3 and people are talking about whether Richie Hall's job should be in jeopardy. You can't please everyone all the time. We can't just rely on the other team playing terrible offence against us each week. Our defence is just lucky, don't you know? blue_gold_84 and SPuDS 2

GCn20 Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 As is the case with many, many, of the recruits that the CFL gets to pick from the problem with Thorpe was his attitude. There are literally hundreds of TJ Thorpes that have come through our league. Great talent but short on brains. SPuDS and blue_gold_84 2
Bigblue204 Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 Givens might be that extra option on O. He's got some solid wheels and decent size. Hopefully we get a chance to see what he's got. As for Adams. Guy has been absolutely lights out this year! SPuDS, Tracker and blue_gold_84 1 2

Still can't believe we couldn't find a way to keep him. FYP Had he not requested his release so rashly, he'd still be here and there's a chance he could have been in the lineup this past weekend in Edmonton. Instead, Givens will end up with the opportunity. And just as well, IMO. BigBlueFanatic and SPuDS 2

Puns are one thing, constantly adding layers of complexity to the delivery is just unnecessary. We need low hanging fruit. Not onions that need layers peeled back. Onions are disgusting. LOW FRUIT!!! Edit: Look at this: Makes sense that the boatmen would land a Bass. That is one laaaaaazy pun. No effort required on the reader's part. Or the writer's. That is embarrassingly bad, the way a pun should be. Edited October 3, 2017 by mbrg blue_gold_84, Atomic, SPuDS and 2 others 2 1 2
