June 19, 201411 yr comment_58230 Good for the kid. Hopefully he makes it there. And hopefully the guys we kept do great. There we go. Concise and sensible. Exactly how I feel.
June 19, 201411 yr comment_58235 If he catches on in Ottawa & scores 130 points & our placekicking isn't as good then it was a huge mistake. So if a guy we cut goes elsewhere, & plays much better than the guy we kept instead, it should be considered a bad thing for us? Thanks for clearing that up.

Especially if the guy we keep isn't as good. You're welcome. Anytime.

Yes he was being sarcastic, because your comment basically adds up to: "If the guy we cut ends up better than the guy we kept, then it was a mistake." Well no ****. That's how cuts work.

June 22, 201411 yr comment_59368 WTF.. Maher released? Ottawas kicker is the creepy lumberjack i guess?
June 22, 201411 yr comment_59404 Smith looked very good last year,but maybe all the changes has set him back a bit. Given Popp's record of finding talent, I wouldn't write Smith off too soon, unless you're secretly rooting for Brink.
June 22, 201411 yr comment_59409 WTF.. Maher released? Ottawas kicker is the creepy lumberjack i guess? They have a bye Week 1 so they must have a line on some kickers to bring in & evaluate before then. I wonder if they'll pick up Stamps Tyler Crapigna who was released & sent back to CIS this season? He was never going to beat out Rob Maver & Rene Paredes.
June 22, 201411 yr comment_59432 Maher looked bad in the pre-season game. Missed a FG and put a kick off out of bounds. Not surprising that he was cut, but it is surprising that they don't have any kickers left.

Anytime.Yes he was being sarcastic, because your comment basically adds up to:"If the guy we cut ends up better than the guy we kept, then it was a mistake." Well no ****. That's how cuts work. Well actually... in this particular case if Maher plays better than Lirim it doesn't necessarily mean we made a mistake because of the ratio. Basically because we are playing NAT at kicker we don't need to play a NAT somewhere else. So we'd have to look at how much Maher plays better at the kicking position vs. how much of a dropoff we'd have at whatever position we would have to go NAT at if we kept Maher.
June 22, 201411 yr comment_59517 Ottawa must be going import at kicker. They aren't going to get any better than Palardy off the NI scrap heap.
June 22, 201411 yr comment_59518 Close, but not quite. Carrying a NI kicker means and extra DI, not an extra starting Import.
June 22, 201411 yr comment_59560 @sportscage: Hearing the RedBlacks will name Luca Congi as their kicker as early as Monday
June 22, 201411 yr comment_59566 Congi? Man Maher's passport is killing his chances more than I thought.
June 23, 201411 yr comment_59594 Congi? Man Maher's passport is killing his chances more than I thought. I don't think his passport had much to do with his being cut by the RedBlacks. He didn't play well in his pre-season game with them.

He was never going to beat out Rob Maver & Rene Paredes. The Stamps put Crapigna on their suspended list. That would protect him from being snagged by another team, wouldn't it.
June 23, 201411 yr comment_59607 With the new CBA I have no clue. I think a suspended list is a bad thing as Crapinga was cut. I don't like the idea of a team owning a players rights after they were cut.

June 23, 201411 yr comment_59611 Is Congi doing all three jobs? Hasn't punted since 2010 and has averaged 38 yards per punt in his career.
June 28, 201411 yr comment_61523 HaHA... Ottawa re-signed Maher... Classic Desjardins They did? Wow so Congi didn't work out very well. But you watch, Maher will have a monster game against us..... though if we play like we did against the Argos, that monster game will mostly be punts
