August 16, 201312 yr comment_15444 Kind of a shocker But I'd get him here ASAP unless he got cut from BC because he's not interested in playing football anymore or something. Report
August 16, 201312 yr comment_15447 very odd to say the least. Might be that he wants out of football. Report

August 16, 201312 yr comment_15462 #FearTheBeard But seriously though .. looking at his raw stats (and I'll readily admit I haven't dug too deeply into this) .. he doesn't seem to offer much more than we have now. Change for the sake of change? Report
August 16, 201312 yr comment_15464 Agreed his stats aren't amazing; however if we're bringing in kicking competition, I'd rather it be a young guy with some potential rather than old sandbagger whose stats are as bad and has a history of being difficult as well. Report
August 16, 201312 yr Author comment_15466 #FearTheBeard But seriously though .. looking at his raw stats (and I'll readily admit I haven't dug too deeply into this) .. he doesn't seem to offer much more than we have now. Change for the sake of change? I'd have him do the placekicking for us over Palardy in a second. His kickoff average is substantially better (59.5 compared to 54) and he's got a stronger leg than Palardy for sure. Not to mention, he may be able to push Renaud as well. His punting numbers aren't stellar but I have to excuse at least a bit of that because it seems like he's kicked almost exclusively in a dome while Renaud has had several wind-aided punts to bump up his averages. That's moot without any actual research to support it though. Report

August 16, 201312 yr comment_15501 Would be a huge fan of bringing the kid in. I like Palardy and Renaud, but O'Neill is a gooder, and that beard is something you could build a franchise around. Get 'er done, Mr. Walters! Report

August 16, 201312 yr comment_15526 There's got to be a homeless shelter in Winnipeg he could move into so he could feel at home. East Hastings has nothing on downtown Winnipeg Hugh! Report

I'm sure there's a few suites or houses for rent on Mountain Avenue. All kidding aside, it would be great to have the guy brought in. Report
