    BOLO is probably closer to stealing Wolitarsky’s spot than he is to being on the PR

    Under rating wolitarsky big time there. Dude is rock solid and could have bigger numbers with a different role.
  11. There is no way BOLO goes on the PR.

    The popularity of basketball across Canada has never been higher so if there's a time for it to succeed here, it's now.

    Every accusation is a confession. Same here in Canada. Every time you here someone complain about "woke" or " grooming", you should probably check their hard drives.

    Because your premise is wrong. BOLO is not poised to take wolitarksys spot. I like the guy but being taller doesn't make him better suited to that role.

    Gold - Canada Silver - Germany Bronze - Latvia I'm not sure anybody had that pegged as the outcome for the Worlds (Canada aside). Great showing by both the German & Latvian teams.

  22. I'd like to see Maruo used as a rusher while Hansen works his way back. He's got a lot of will but isn't a strong player in the open field/coverage. Set him up with a role that relies mostly on effort and he'll be ok.

    Over all think the first pre season game was what we needed. I think it’s a great call to get the vets lots of early action and give them most of the second game off so they can be healthy. The biggest obstacles to the bombers being good early are going to be health and rust. Work too much of the rust off and you put health at risk. It’s a tough spot with low contact practice these days. Early weeks of the regular season are gonna be lower quality if they stick to no tackle practice. If Jeffcoat is healthy Thomas starting as our nose with walker rotating will improve a lot of our pass rush and run stop. Having biggie back will be huge too. Barrington is going to be a pretty big upgrade over Clements though not kyrie atleast yet. Lots of good dbs, some good players are gonna be cut. Wr core is super deep too. Nice to have a new back up ni to bolo. richmond looks as good as ever at T for depth. Dobson needs a lot of work at C still with snaps but if Eli gets healthy it isn’t a big issue. And we identified a new short yardage option qb. We even found great depth at kicker and punter. look forward to seeing round 2 of the db and wr battle next week, and more from pigrome.

    Can we say ethnic cleansing?? The Russians have done this to Tatars, Poles and Latvians as well as Ukrainians; Putin today signed a law allowing the deportation of Ukrainians from the occupied territories.
  26. The saving grace is we got Derrick Armstrong and Terrence Edwards in 06 and 07, that was a pretty decent receiving core with an ageless Milt

    oh those were the days eh?...good greif....BOLO is going to see more reps this yr tho.....him and Woli have similar games, with each having a bit of a different skillset....BOLO has shown well in blocking like Woli....and can be more a field stretcher and mismatch....nice to see them mix him in with a run play too....and fared well doing so....I bet we see Lawler/Bailey/Demski/Woli/Schoen/Agudosi...all rostered and getting significant reps on offense this year..how they set it up starter/ratio wise is gonna be interesting
  28. I once won a bet that Jade Etienne would never amass more career receiving yards than the legendary Aaron Hargreaves. It was a bold bet on my part considering Hargreaves was hot garbage but Etienne proved to be hotter garbage in the long run.

    Woli is more of a blocker than any thing. His spot is as secure as any one. Bolo isn’t taking that spot.
  30. Let’s be honest BOLO will get some reps this season. I love Demski but because of his use he’s a tad injury prone. Between him and Woli I would bet money that BOLO gets a decent amount of reps this season, he’s a big dependable target. Really don’t mind his game at all for what we need from our third Canadian receiver.

    Wouldn't surprise me at all if he not only rosters, but makes Drew W. see the bench a fair bit. I love me some Woli but I could legit see BOLO pushing him out, maybe even towards the end of this year.

    Taken from a story by John Bacon, USA Today: Florida mom who challenged Amanda Gorman poem and other books says she only read parts of the material. Salinas told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency she complained about Gorman's poem and the books because they did not support the curriculum. Gorman, 25, was the first person named the National Youth Poet Laureate. “I’m not an expert,” Salinas said. “I’m not a reader. I’m not a book person. I’m a mom involved in my children’s education.” The continued and relentless dumbing down of our species in full view.

    Why??...H e was the main backup National receiver last yr and on the roster, and will be again this year...nothing changes
  35. 2 points
    He will be on the game-day roster especially if they go with the K, KR, DL LB or DB as DI. He would be the backup receiver.

    Yeah any true national receiver will be hard pressed to get anything more than a PR spot this year...BOLO is the main backup to the 2 starters...and prob see's more reps in general above just a strict back-up role And the fact that we can now also use Bailey as a Nationalized Canuck for 49% of snaps gives us the flexibility to not have to roster an additional National receiver...mind you I don't think we did anyway last year

    Basketball has been and still is growing massively in popularity with the younger folks while Football/Baseball are aging out and losing fans. I guess the only doubt would be if the kids would care about a local team or if they would only follow the big league?

    Regardless of who is in government....this is exactly the type of thing I mean, when I say they're all the same. There are ways to help our society recover. We all know this, politicians too. But it's always talk and no action. PC/LIB/NDP the problems always seem squeeze their way out of the grip of solutions. I wonder why ($$$$$$$$)...

    Also re snaps with Dobson, Texas state ran multi back forms mostly under centre. Think he played two games at c with them, but likely hasn’t snapped to the shot gun a lot at any level. That said the snap to pistol/gun is some thing any one who isn’t a primary centre struggles with. But it is very teachable. And Costello is a great ol coach.
  45. Money Hunter is definitely the best player Money Hunter has ever seen.

    I wanna see us give Sterling a big amount of reps...and with a healthy Jeffcoat and Willie those 3 will I think be a good rotation and allow us to ease Bennet in gradually as didn't see much outta him in that first game..he def not ready for primetime yet...but with the Jeff's and Sterling...and Hansen when he gets back...we should look pretty good there. Thomas impressed...and Walker looks like he changed his physique a bit...looks more powerful and was getting good push...if he progresses more...and Thomas is real deal we may have fixed up that middle of the line...and will allow our ends to flourish. I expect Lawson and JAke to be the main Canadian dlineman...really looking forward to Lawson's progression this yr..I can see possibly more of Jake spelling him.off this yr than the other way around. Whoever we end up starting game one with the DBS we will be fine..even if a guy or two start off injured...we are deep and solid and there some new blood pushing the vets and second yr guys...if everyone is healthy game 1 likely we start a Rose..Nichols..BA..Parker..Lawrence staring 5 with Houston..Holm and Swaray vying for the 6th...and the extra possible DB rostered...but I think/hope we use that rangy Global who looks legit or another Canadian to utilize a DI spot for one of Augudosi/Sheed ...I know we and especially ZC are gonna want both those guys rostered...and will make it work If..and I assume Ford will be back mid summer...that will really help with roster configuration as he can bump a DI'd DB off gameday and allow us another on the Dline..or linebacker...heck even Mcrae or one the other import backs if one blows the doors off the riders Friday. Have zero...none...nadda concerns with the online...the starting 5 all looked good ...and I think sooner or later Eli will supplant Kolo as a starter...so having Kolo/Eli/Dobson as Canadian backups in whatever form shakes out...and Richmond at Tackle...we are so deep and solid...if Hardrick or big Stan get any minor nicks...We could rest em and not miss a beat with Richmond Our backups Richmond.. Dobson...Eli..Machino are prob a better core or on par with several teams starters..what a embarrassing amount of depth And love..love this QB trio...prob best we have had in eons...I actually think Piggy could and will be more electric than Strevie...heafty praise and statement...but if he can do more of that in game 2...when teams know what he possesses...he may just be huge for us

    Also add corporations off-shoring profits, so they avoid paying taxes on the enormous profits they earn. It would make a huge difference if tax havens were eliminated and the capital remained in the countries that generated it. Every 5 years or so the drumbeats of action are sounded, but they always fall silent without any measurable corrections taking place. Damn right the oil and mining industries should be nationalized, as long as the vast majority of the profits generated from these resources is siphoned out of the country.

    Yeah there are guys who can run and then there's guys who can go the same speed but with shorter steps. Allows to avoid would-be tacklers. Piggy looks like a real problem for defenses especially if he can continue to show that he can pass. Reminded me of that first time we saw Lucky's speed. Where it was just like wtf

    On the big td run I said right there that he earned the 3rd spot . That acceleration was obscene. Just hits the jets and no one was going to catch him. What a weapon. Looked like a kick returner hitting the hole and blowing by everyone.
