The name Eskimos is offensive to a certain group of mostly white people. I'm an old white guy, and I'd have no problem with the Winnipeg Whitemen. I suspect the same group of white people who find Eskimos offensive would find Whitemen equally offensive. Changing the team's name to placate one group of people also pisses off another group. That said, the name change has little to nothing to do with the lack of fans in the stands & changing it back wouldn't either.

When you're down 27-9 at the half why would threy run the ball?

BC's receiving corps has been decimated. Please change my pick to Ham. Thanks.

I'll be 71 in a week. Respect your elders. I was alive when Bill Haley's Rock Around The Clock Hit #1 on Billboard's Top 100 & you weren't.

Something is going on with defences....
This week almost every QB had career numbers....virtually every defence was lit up. Not defending ours as it was bad, but look a the numbers for Kelly, Alexander, Collars, Bo, Rourke and Harris....what the.....actually heck, look at those numbers....

Neither team played defence last night. Tons of big plays for both offences. Receivers on both teams were wide open, and the QB's got them the ball. Looks like both teams will need to score 30 points to win.

Last year the right side of our line couldn't pass protect. This year the left side of our line is struggling with assignments in run blocking. Hamilton picked up on Bryant cheating up to 2nd level on inside zone. We don't really run wide zone much, so the inside zone is our bread and butter. Hamilton blitzed very effectively to capitalize on Bryant's assignment weakness. We need to secure first level, the first 3-4 yards, before we're chasing guys 8-10 yards down field on play side.
No one is practicing full contact after high school. Even high school it's basically summer camp and once you're playing games practices are light contact. Practice is basically about game planning.

We lost on the Doink and the pick in the endzone. Those 2 plays cost us 6 points with a good chance at 10.

I'll need more than one game before I start imagining our DL is as elite as Calgary's. They were disruptive (not productive) against us even without Hutchings or Orimolade. That's a scary DL they have in Calgary for sure.

Are there more practice updates from DT?
Don't have an X account. @DTonOB how about some Bluesky updates too!

Only three games for each of the first two weeks of the season seems like an odd scheduling choice, no?
We don't even need a guru. Barely competent might have got us back to the Grey Cup last year.

Dammit if Wilson isn't a pretty good colour guy.

I swear most games in 1999, Kerwin Bell would have 125 yards passing through 3 quarters and then would pile the numbers up in the 4th when we were down by 3 touchdowns.
Worst 5000 yard passing season ever.

No Hutchings, Orimolade, Begelton or Paredes. Gotta change my pick to the Bombers.
