Main Camp - Day Three Observations
Not really related too much to what's going on today, but Burke said yesterday that he expects to see a lot from Isaac Anderson this season. That seems like a pretty solid clue that he's going to make the team.

Blue DBs Get Second Warning
Markett & Washington have been singled out as being very good so far in camp. Washington in particular is a guy I wouldn't be shocked to see win a starting job.

- Main Camp -- Day 2
Miles was definitely a guy I thought had a chance to be a good player for us. I suppose this doesn't necessarily mean he can't be though.- Main Camp Observations - Day One
I didn't see the play, but heard the cheering and saw Kohlert running back from the endzone with the ball. Pierce's first skelly session was much better than his second. I thought the D won the team session near the end of practice. I also forgot to mention that McGee was playing nickel with the starting d today.- Main Camp Observations - Day One
I was there today. The place looks pretty good but there's still a lot of work left to do. My seats are pretty good. I'm in the 13th row of the upper deck and I've got a railing that's just on the edge of my sightline. It's not bad, I'll just have to get used to it. I was in row 32 of the old stadium and these seats really don't seem that much further away, which is nice. -I thought Pierce was the best qb today. He was hitting all of his targets in the first skelly session. Goltz was probably second best, and sure seemed to have the strongest arm and the most athleticism of all of them. Hall started poorly, as he threw a few passes behind his receivers in a passing drill, but seemed to get better as the day went on. They had two skelly sessions going at once, so I didn't get to see Hall or Clement run theirs -They were running a passing drill into the wind and Clement couldn't get the ball to the far sideline. I was least impressed with him, but again, I didn't get to see him run skelly -Simpson looks like he's a better football player than everybody else on the field. If he can stay healthy he's going to have a monster season -I thought Degrate & Hyde looked good. Hyde made a very nice play to knock a ball down at the los and Degrate was giving January trouble with his speed coming around the corner -Not many dropped balls today from any of the receivers, at least not that I saw. Matthews looked the best of them all. Kennedy made some nice catches as well -Poblah was about 5 yards offside on nearly every play I saw him in.- Welcome!
17to85, are you part of the OB banned list now? I saw your post in the "exciting changes" thread and now it's gone.- Rookie Camp Observations - Day Three
Miles & Anderson are the two new(ish) receivers I'm most interested in, although if Pierce can put it together his size would be a nice bonus on the outside.- Rookie Camp Observations - Day Three
He's the only rb in rookie camp, so he should have his position coach all to himself.- FANS SELECT BLUE BOMBER GREATS FOR MAIN GATES
Sure he was a loveable guy, but an assistant coach should not be one of only 4 people chosen for an honour like that. I would have had Walby before either of Brown or Poplawski.- Welcome!
For you guys that were banned from OB, are you allowed to view the site as a guest? I'm getting a message saying "this account has been suspended" on a white & orange screen. I'm not entirely sure why I'd be banned though...- NHL Playoffs
if he plans to call the infraction he needs to go ahead and do it. It wasn't a delayed call because both teams had a player going off. I get all of that, but what did the Hawks player do to deserve a penalty on that play? He only reached up to hold on as he was being power bombed to the ice. I probably wouldn't have called either of them (Wings player was questionable), but especially not the Hawks player.- NHL Playoffs
Holy crap did Walkom ever pound it into the Hawks' collective asses with that call. If they lose that'll be up there with the Kerry Fraser "no call" on Gretzky as the worst referee mistakes in playoff history.- Welcome!
Has there been anyone who was upset with you guys for doing this (other than Colin)?- NHL Playoffs
Love the Pens & hate the Bruins. I may harm myself if they lose this series. The two highest ranking members on my "want to slap" list are Jack Edwards & Rene Rancourt.- Bombers Sign Five, Release OT Carmon
The timing of his release makes me he told the team he wasn't coming.- Welcome!
Looks good gentlemen. I was a little surprised to see 2 or 3 pm's this morning on this subject, given that I had no idea this was even being considered. Great idea though. Having the main contributors running the show should keep things running more efficiently. And I agree that the twitter feed on the side is a nice touch. - Main Camp -- Day 2
