ReplyDeleteFirst off-season move I am not crazy about.
ReplyDeleteIs Price still around?

Hopefully we won't need to see Tino until its mop-up time as Darian will have led us to a big win.
ReplyDeleteMaybe there will be some mop-up time now that Richie's prevent defence is gone and I fully agree, put Tino in every chance we get.
ReplyDeleteThe worst part about David Lee leaving is his wife leaves too!
ReplyDeleteYep, Lee's wife is hot, but he mouthed off at city council saying who he was AND a Saskatchewan Roughrider. Dumb move because individual players don't represent the collaborative thoughts of an organization.
ReplyDeleteHopefully a new OC means if Tino has to go in the game plan is adjusted for his skill set. Cortez tried making Tino play Durant's game
