  1. Return game is another reason that D. Mitchell may get the nod. He's no Janarion Grant, but he is miles better than his M. Mitchell.
  2. We've already paid a lot of his salary. What's left owing is basically minimum contract or even slighty less. At this point his salary is a non factor.

  4. D.Mitchell definitely needs to up his game a lot, but it would take a pretty big performance from someone else to see him cut imo.
  5. As he should be...you don't play until you are 49 years old without being hard on yourself, and being able to look at yourself from the outside in.

  7. I think you mean Booch Thomas, as Fatboi is known to his closest friends.
  8. I think game action and TC action both count for sure, but we have the games for a reason. Yes, we've sat guys that needed to knock the rust off, a mistake that looks like it hasn't been repeated this year. Not every player can play his way onto the team in preseason game action but some definitely can and that is especially true in the trenches. The skill guys can be assessed pretty well without game action, but it's tough to see what kind of motors you have competing in your trenches in practice.

  11. Camps have a second game for a reason and it is ridiculous for people to assume that anything is set in stone other than our star level players. Some vets are at home because we know what they bring to the table already, and some to shield them from injury, but players play themselves onto and off of the team all the time in game action (including this one) in preseason on every team every year.

    As someone who has owned restaurants and mobile concessions, I cannot recommend enough that you avoid the dine in restaurant model enough. Restaurants are the one business I would never recommend anyone to get into. You can do everything right and still fail. There is so little margin for error because margins are so low. I had a restaurant that was doing around a million a year in business and it was profitable, but it was far from a gold mine. After all was said and done, with my wife and I working full time we figured it out that we were making about 9 bucks an hour for our time.

  21. Booming punts is not something you really want to see often because most guys CAN actually outkick coverage if were to let them, however, when we are punting from our end zone and simply can't give up the single because of the scoreboard it would be really nice to have a guy who can uncork a 60 yarder and just pray that our cover team can do something about the return.
  22. Jake began the season getting the majority of reps and that completely reversed by the end of the season. IF Lawson comes back with the same game he left with, I would think that Jake will have a much reduced role in our defence. Of course, that likely takes a few weeks as Lawson just got back. Lawson will 100% have to show he is fully recovered, however, I see no indication anywhere that he isn't. Yea....not willing to hand anyone a job yet, but if he just does what he did last game I can't see how we can justify keeping Sheahan over him.
  23. Yep..so was the play of his OL and his OCs playcalling. Certainly not all on Zac.
  24. He's still working his 9 to 5 in Winnipeg. I would imagine he will continue to do that unless another team picks up the phone. Biggie moved here, lives here, works here, why would he leave?
  25. Unprepared could mean a number of things, but none of them are good. However, sometimes a person can be unprepared through training injury etc. At any rate we've paid half his salary already so it is almost guaranteed he's sticking around. Might mean we keep one more IMP receiver on the PR than we otherwise would have though. If he continues to be unprepared for some reason than his tenure with us will be short.
  26. MOS is safe unless we go sub .500 this year. He gets the benefit of the doubt otherwise. I'm not saying MOS is on a forever run but it will take a significant dip in the standings before they ever pull that trigger. Walters is far more likely to get canned then MOS if we were to just be mediocre this year, I know you don't love the way MOS does things but he has a lot of good will in the bank.
