  1. Edmonton lost there #2 receiver with 6 games left in the year so teams could key in on him more by throwing double coverages at him. This was not possible when Walker was healthy as they would need the safety to float to the ball more.
  2. Coming from Canada I know what Duke can do and I was excited to both see him leave the CFL and him go to the Bills. He is the big, physical receiver many of you are complaining was not drafted and has a great catch radius.
  3. IN all that you said here......you are jumping to conclusions before letting them enforce the rule. As for the bomb disposal comment there is significantly less risk if you take a methodical approach compared to picking it up and tossing it in disposal container.....also now using Robots to preform this job......hmm seems like they changed the risk by introducing guildlines and tools to increase the life expectancy of a bomb disposal person........Sounds kind of like what they are doing here......
  4. Yes there are injuries bound to happen but at the same time you can also prevent some of the worst injuries from happening by teaching proper technique, punishing poor technique and limiting their liability in the future.
  5. You could not find Jim "The Hammer" Shapiro?
  6. That and the media avoided it like the plague and switched it to what is discussed now. Something that can be argued until the end of time. Patriotism vs Freedom of speech...... There is no resolution to that argument.
  7. The act of kneeling was easy, yes. Bucking the entire system of standing for the national anthem, dealing with the feedback, and bringing an issue to light that is effecting the North America as a whole was not.
  8. you are still focused on the non-issue and ignoring what he was protesting......
  9. The true issue is that it has degraded into arguing about the right to protest(free speech) vs patriotism........ both are something deeply woven into the american fabric, instead of the discussing the actual issue that he is protesting.
  10. If you are accused of anything you would hire a defense atty, you will want quality legal council regarding any statements released. This is no surprise. Wait until you have real facts before jumping to conclusions.
  11. Both are fighting for what they believe in, they are both doing something that goes against what most people would consider the easy way. In my eyes a hero is someone that goes above and beyond for their cause.
  12. I had to live through that nightmare twice. I am also a bombers fan in the CFL.
  13. Are you paying to see the players play football or stand like pylons during the national anthem. your analogy would work if they stopped playing and did it but they are playing hard through every snap. It is just the American media that has taken what they were protesting, perceived injustice and mistreatment by police, something that can be debated and if there is an issue be solved and turned it into a debate that has no solution and will make arguments and separate the nation into 2 separate groups. In this case it is about respecting the military vs right to protest........ If you are arguing about that you have turned into a sheep for the media and are missing the point to everything. Unfortunately even the NFL has fallen for it.
  14. I honestly think they are setting up to be good in 2-3 years when the AFC East will be wide open.
  15. It is hard for me to forget him being from Canada and watching him destroy my home team year after year then he went to play for my NFL team. It was weird to cheer for him after so many years of disappointment at his hands.
  16. You can not say that Flutie did not have fire. That is what that little quarterback made his career on.
  17. I am sorry to be politically correct it should be Peterperson
  18. Hate: Patriots, Cowboys and Seahawks Like: Steelers and Saints(well mainly Brees)
  19. I see the opposite. I see a good coach is one who watches the film, the game and practice and see that there were too many missed opportunities in the last 2 losses that he realized his mistake and is taking a chance at fixing it. If anything the players, especially the offence as a breathe of fresh air.
  20. How are you going to get a CFL receiver right now, they are in the middle of a season and all under contract. You are only able to get them in the off season when their contracts are up.
