Canadian, four year CFL vet. — Darren Cameron (@Darren_Cameron) January 7, 2015 Love the name. CRONK. CRONK!!! What does this say to Fitzgerald future with the Bombers? That he has to compete for his job in training camp. Which he would have had to do anyways.
January 7, 201510 yr comment_102393 Fitzy has a million uses. Guys like that? They'll play anywhere on the field and they'll try harder than most of the guys coming outta the US anyhow...

Canadian, four year CFL vet. — Darren Cameron (@Darren_Cameron) January 7, 2015 Love the name. CRONK. CRONK!!! Have to agree. It's been far too long since we had a Cronk to talk about. It's all about the Cronk. Another quick signing that is keeping the collective fan base's head spinning. And no talk of 195K. Sweet. Sweet Cronk!
January 7, 201510 yr comment_102400 Well, he was a character in Emperor's New Groove, and I'm not sure if that was an actual spin off, or if someone just did a JPG up for some reason. I did a Google Image search because I knew I'd heard the name before, but couldn't remember when or where....
January 7, 201510 yr comment_102401 What does this say to Fitzgerald future with the Bombers? Do you not remember how bad our long snapping was when Ian Wild was injured?

January 7, 201510 yr comment_102403 It says that Fitzgerald can't snap well enough to do it in the CFL, which we've known since his first training camp. Cronk had a lot of struggles in his last snapping stint in BC. I hope we keep some other options on speed dial in case he isn't past them.
January 7, 201510 yr comment_102405 What does this say to Fitzgerald future with the Bombers? Do you not remember how bad our long snapping was when Ian Wild was injured? I'm not defending Fitzgerald here. I agree that he has bad performance when he took over the LS when Wild was hurt. There are people here who are supporters of Fitzgerald and the question is more directed to them. I'm not sure the Bombers will carry 3 FB on gameday. So my guess he will be cut.
January 7, 201510 yr comment_102407 Obviously the need for depth at the long snapping spot is a critical need. They need to load up there.
January 7, 201510 yr comment_102408 Gotta stop being so critical of Fitzy, in terms of offense. Stop thinking of things purely in terms of Offense and Defense. You need the ST demon guys, and Fitzy's a real good one. If nothing else, he's real quality depth.
January 7, 201510 yr comment_102413 Doubt Fitzgerald makes it through training camp... can't long snap and is just not fast enough - would have been a good 6th round pick Would say Briggs and Cornell have better chance at being 'long snapping depth' after Cronk
January 7, 201510 yr comment_102415 Cronk...Bonk....Solid football names and they both were/are Bombers. Good move to secure a long snapper.
January 7, 201510 yr comment_102437 What does this say to Fitzgerald future with the Bombers? Do you not remember how bad our long snapping was when Ian Wild was injured? We absolutely had to do this. Fitzgerald can be a backup long-snapper (maybe ) and can play some tight end.
January 7, 201510 yr comment_102438 Or they draft a guy who does it and can play another spot and Fitz is gone.
January 7, 201510 yr comment_102439 Is that a real Disney movie? Yes it is. It was a direct-to-video sequel to Emperor's New Groove. Patrick Warburton did the voice of Kronk in both movies.

January 10, 201510 yr comment_102796 We can play the New Orleans TD song everytime we go to kick a field goal or punt now. Stand Up and get Cronk! WHO DAT?
