34 year old slot receivers don't have much runway left. Even the bat suit won't be much help...

F Florio...

OMG, I just pissed myself laughing! That is THE best Youtube video I've ever seen....

Mostly dead...then all dead. Tough day.

Agreed. If it comes down to Roberts or Hodgins for #6, I hope they go with youth and an ability to grow vs. the veteran -- even if that runs counter to how McD likes to roll.

There is a small case to be made for keeping two kickers (its been done before), especially if they think Bass is their guy for the future. There is NO case for keeping two punters...

It's maddening. Just so damn maddening. I hope this video burns Strickland to the ground... https://www.eastbaytimes.com/2020/08/18/new-video-appears-to-show-alameda-sheriffs-deputy-initiated-scuffle-with-raptors-president-after-warriors-nba-finals-loss/ "...In February, Strickland decided to sue Ujiri for assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress and two counts of negligence, alleging that he had suffered “physical, mental, emotional and economic” injuries in the confrontation’s wake. In a statement Wednesday, sheriff’s spokesman Sgt. Ray Kelly said the department had closed out its part in the case last July after an investigation that drew on resources from Oakland police and the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office. Kelly distinguished between the public case, which ended with a citation hearing last November, and the private matter of Strickland’s suit against Ujiri. “There’s been a snippet of video released publicly that doesn’t tell the story of the entire investigation,” Kelly said. “That story will have to come out through the process. We stand by our original statements.” Kelly confirmed that Strickland remains employed by the department and said the deputy is on leave recovering from injuries sustained during the incident. Mastagni Holstedt founder David P. Mastagni told this news organization in June 2019 that, “This is an unprovoked significant hit to the jaw, causing a serious concussion, a temporal mandibular joint injury, a serious jaw injury. The officer is off-work, disabled and wants to get back to work.” https://www.ktvu.com/news/new-video-sheriffs-deputy-the-undeniably-initial-aggressor-in-toronto-raptors-shoving-match "But in February, Strickland filed a federal lawsuit against Ujiri, the Raptors, Maple Leaf Entertainment at the NBA alleging Ujiri shoved him so hard on the court that he suffered physical injuries to his head, jaw, chin and teeth. Strickland also filed a workers' compensation claim alleging Ujiri “circumvented” the security checkpoint and then tried to “storm” the court and “hit him in the face and chest with both fists.” Strickland also claimed Ujiri had a “violent predisposition” and acted with an “evil motive amounting to malice,” according to his suit and workers' compensation claims. Neither Strickland, who has not been back to work in more than a year, nor his attorney, David Mastagni, were available for immediate comment. Even more WTF: "Strickland's past criminal history is also troubling, legal analysts have said. In March, KTVU broke an exclusive story revealing that in 1994, Strickland was arrested and later convicted of insurance fraud, raising questions about his integrity."

Lol. This guy is such a media *****. Better to go with the bidet maker....

How deflating...

The CFL is just whack...

They've only walk throughs so far. Not much of news value in that. The pads come on tomorrow...

I didn't say cut. I said make the roster (which includes I/R, the kind that allows players to return after week 8 or season ending). Reading between the lines on Frasier's comments from yesterday, I think they're worried about getting Harry up to speed in an abbriviated training camp: https://billswire.usatoday.com/2020/08/15/things-we-learned-buffalo-bills-coordinators-brian-daboll-leslie-frazier/4/ “So far in these walkthroughs, he’s done everything that we would expect him to do. We gave him a bit of a break yesterday, he took some time off… so far, so good,” Frazier said. “Now the real test for him will be once we get the pads on and we’re going live and he’s in situations where he has to really take power and be able to plant and drive and push off and those kind of things.”

If nothing else, this should give Phillips another month to slowly work back into form from his knee surgery. Although I'm starting to wonder just how well that's going. And if he could slip off the roster if it's not responding as well as hoped...

Yep. He's chisled and super fit but 67 years old now, so that likely factored into his decisision...

Best of luck, Steve Freeman...

More like nobody listens. That place is an echo chamber...

Just checking in to see why this thread is 26 pages long. Yet more examples of why TSW needs a face palm emoji...

Well, you just got "opted out" by me. C ya...

Meh. I think I'll keep my ad blocker on for that site...

So the original one just "fell" off? That's too big a mind **** for 5:07 am. Better go back to bed....
