My opinion of Carter stems from watching him at training camp in Kamloops. I had high expectations of him really connecting with Reilly but all I saw was a lazy pantload who seemed disinterested in putting in any more than minimal effort. He spent most of the time during stretching exercises yukking it up with the waterboys, strength & conditioning coaches and anybody close to him. When he wasn't doing that he was half heartedly jogging and smiling his way thru the sprint sessions putting in just enough effort to finish ahead of the offensive linemen. It was a disgusting display when ever ..read more

Yeah, Claypool has NFL level talent, but from where I sit it appears he does not have pro football maturity. I don't think his ego would allow him to play in the CFL. Claypool comes across to me as being similar to Duron Carter. Long on talent but lacking the sort of maturity needed to be a pro. What I don't know is what sort of work ethic he has. If it's good he can still salvage he career. If it's like what Carter showed at his only training camp with BC his career might be over. I think the maturity problems in re Carter were overblown. He was an active, proficient, and willing downfie ..read more

I’m glad I grabbed some seats when I did. It should be a blast. For anyone coming from out of town, I wouldn’t recommend driving to the game. The streets around there are not designed for high levels of traffic. It’s not far from downtown or bus routes though ..read more

I don't follow the NFL close enough to know if Claypool gets another chance and if he does what kind of chance it will be. Doubtful Kansas City is mulling it over. I would make the call and think it is something his people should consider. Get his head on straight and who knows. He didn't have the best role models with Antonio Brown among them and is still so young. It's almost a purrfect scenario with Hatcher out and the spo ..read more

I think Rourke is in a bit of a tough spot in NE. The HC that signed him, Belichek, is gone as is the OC. While NE's new OC has worked out Rourke in Cleveland, there really is no one in NE with any sort of commitment or belief in him. Belichek had already been out of the New England picture for nearly 2 months when Rourke was signed to the ERFA deal at the start of March. Rourke getting re-signed is totally on the new GM and HC Mayo ..read more
