Just that they're monitoring the air quality. Cfl will meet again around 6pm wpg time to discuss as per DT on Twitter 

It's not looking good

Key guys/positions to watch for me :
Gowan/Vaval/parker. Db is deep and we have few openings. Still maybe 1 job up for grabs, and maybe a KR job to be grabbed. Gowan and Vaval look too good to straight cut. Should be a good one. 
Shay/Smith should get more reps on D this week, really look forward to seeing more of them. 
Ayers. All he does is excel, but it looks like he is up creek with out a paddle roster wise. 
Person and Bailey. Person looked good in limited reps last week, Bailey didn't see a ton of snaps both had strong camps. We likely DI one DL, going to be a battle for that spot. Bailey has a big inside track as a 2nd global. 
Adams/ woods / pointer. Adams played the best of these 3, and pointer second. Which is a suprise, considering how good woods was last year. 
lawson to see how he shakes the rust off, and shout out to 92 davis the kid from the riffles who got a little shine in camp. Only been playing football a couple years but doesn't show it. 
Wallace,Vanterpool and randolph. The final shoot out for the starting ol jobs. 
white/mitchell and mitchell. The finale of the under whelming wr core position battle. Some one needs to step up, or we need them to any way. 
Cooley, the front runner for PS MVP. 
Zach and strev, can we get a td or two please? 

Only John Connor can answer that.

CFL plus gonna crash again. Let’s go Rookie Blue. 

TIL Jake Thomas only speaks in the third person, and is REALLY hard on himself.

Last chance to clinch the iconic TC MVP trophy and ascend to the hall of legends with the likes of Joshua Bostick, Tony Ortiz, and Manase Foketi (who managed to win it without even making it to camp!) 
 

Time for some of these new recruits to attach either the stone of shame, or the stone of triumph!

Well, when are we gonna get rowdy?
LET'S GO BLUE!

I’ve spent years researching this and I am fairly confident that Booch is the Rock

No.
For the most part teams know who they are starting the season with.  Maybe a couple openings.  Guys are getting evaluated to make PR and get called back when injuries hit to make their mark in regular season and keep their careers going, or the next guy gets called in to try to take the spot.

Guys, keep politics out of the thread.  
We’ve been so good for so long, please continue to abide by Rich’s wishes and forum rules.
I’ve pruned a few posts to get us back on track.

Grant is the ultimate wildcard, whether a game is going well or not, with one 10 second play he has the ability to turn the scoreboard on it's head and steal momentum.

If there's one thing we know about MOS, it's that his ego is out of control 

Yep. 
 Ayers is my biggest worry. That kid has soo much potential, work ethic and desire. He makes plays few people in football can pull off. Be it on teams or D. We gotta keep polishing that kid. If he half fulfills what he’s capable of, he’s the best defensive player in the league. Idk how many times we’ve seen guys who are that level of disruptive, but it’s been really rare for us. 

medlocks punting was never his strength though. Sheehan is a punter. He should be better than a guy who did everything else.

For the O this where it all starts so do whatever it takes please and thank you.

Yeah. Second to injuries, (and rider wins) the thing I hate most in sports is wasted talent. Hope he manages to get him self sorted and back to where he needs to play. 
 
it’s been a lot of adjustments and trials of different combos. 
 I don’t think Lofton has practiced much at all. Randolph has looked better than Lofton last year though imo. Hes settled into rt nicely. 

 Vanterpool has taken a nice step forward in general. 

 Wallace has been good. Saw him get beat off the line couple times but recover really well. Think that’s why he got a run at rt. He’s lost 15-20 from his pro day time and he hasn’t lost strength. Run block wise, he’s our best bet at guard imo. Pass pro, he’s worth growing with at this point. 

 Eli is pretty much the usual. Much better at C than G, though playing beside the other Cs he was better than with kola. 

 They really like vibert, and I could see him getting groomed on the pr for a year. Hes a nasty inside guy who can snap a bit and be groomed into a back up C pretty easily. Realistically could be a 6th ol in the league this year from what I’ve seen. Gets off the ball well, strong with a good base, nasty type we always like. 

 Neuf looks significantly more mobile than he did all of last year. More explosive than he’s been in a while. If he stays healthy he should be as good as you’d hope. 
 
Among the other rookie imps, Atkinson is a throw back body style. He’s thick and strong and significantly heavier than his listed weight. He’s aggressive and got some good attribute's, but he looks like a straight up guard in need of polish. Which doesn’t happen up here. 
 elsbury has the measurables and it shows on the field, but he’s raw. Reminds me of Randolph last year.  
 I like Hemphills upside, he’s more polished and probably the best of the zone run blockers among the imports. 
 
I could see us easily keeping 1-2 imp ol on the pr and 1 ni, and probably another guy on the ir. 
 Best ol imo: Bryant Neuf Eli vanterpool Randolph.   
 realistically, we are gonna start kola if healthy and I don’t think we have the ratio at this point to go 3 imps with our hurting the d and teams. 
Bryant Neuf kola Wallace Randolph with Eli as the 6th is likely.  
 
I wouldn’t be surprised to see more Wallace at RT. I could see a world where we go 4ni ol with vibert on the ar and Wallace at RT easier than I can see us going 4 imp ol.  If that happened, it’d be best to slide Neuf to his side to give him more help. 
 
Over all I like our ol crop, could still use more Canadian talent as always,  we likely have to face more struggles with change though. Guys needs to gel, and take some lumps as starters at their positions. But that is coming for us no matter what. It’s a good time to move forward with young guys and build in near future replacements for Neuf and Bryant. 

Nice to hear that Neuf is leaner and better. Maybe he had another conversation in that cabin in the mountains.

I think the drop off from Wallace to imp should be small. We gain more imo with the imp on D. 
 As it is we have 1 starter spot and hopefully 1 back up spot for woods, adams, person, pointer and Webb. 1 di spot for griffin, valval, ayers/jones, one for Sergio and one for a kr. 
 If we go none di for kr, and 3 ni on the ol it helps our ratio a whole lot. The injuries to Kelly and makonzo hurt a lot on D. 
 We are gonna have soo many bodies at lber again, we need all the dl and dbs who can actually on D on the ar.

Was he at La Roca last night?
