Interesting timing, that's for sure.

You gotta feel for both Bertolet and Ferraro being thrown into this insane environment of perfection. Ferraro will learn what Bertolet did.
It might seem unfair but all this team success isn't by accident.

Can I be the cynic and ask why Bummers didn't try Ferraro when their placekicking went off the rails. Why is he good enough for us to try but not them. We have let this thing go for so long we're dumpster diving now ?

We have let this thing go for so long we're dumpster diving now ? It also begs the question as to the fact that we had both Bertolet and Ferraro here in Training camp and management decided that Bertolet was the better choice at the time . Flash forward to the present and all of a sudden bells go off for management and after 13 games they say ' uh gee fellas maybe we kept the wrong guy ?" . Yup , like I said over in that other forum... Cats management right on top of things as usual  |

I'm more interested to see when or if Evans ever gets to play anymore meaningful time at all during the remainder if this season. |

Interesting timing, that's for sure. I'm pretty sure they did it because I threatened to SCREAM in an earlier post if they didn't remove Bertolet. They must of read my post and said "We can't piss off the Pope".  |

Another example of the Pope’s far reaching powers in this world.
Perhaps a special playoff blessing is in order?

If only I wasn't too lazy to go looking for a sarcasm emoji when I made my post. I fully expect Masoli to start. Surprised no one has yet made the assertion that he has pics of Stein & Condell in a compromising position with an ostrich, cause it would take at least 2 guys to f*ck an ostrich. (For Letterkenny fans) On an unrelated note, the mods here have turned on swear removal button. |

Only 1 word is censored because according to other board owners it attracts more "bot" usernames (we had a couple try to join already). No issue with the actual intent to use the word, especially this season. |

I can not understand how our management would chose an International Player in training camp over a similar Canadian , bad ratio decision , unless Ferraro was injured , he's local from Guelph I hear (?).

Because you have to dress and play International players. There's hundreds of millions of soccer players world-wide, millions of rugby players world wide, and there's one continent that plays a "third" type of football with tens of thousands playing. All three games involve kicking a ball with a foot, and two of those games use oblong balls. It's not unreasonable to think that finding a guy who can either punt, placekick, or both would be fairly easy.
Remember, the first "real" International player was brought in by the Ticats and counted as a "Non-Import" - Jopsh Bartel. |

The majority of NCAA Division 1 football teams have at least one Ozzie kicker/punter on the roster . That nose of the ball down kicking style seems to have replaced the spiral that we all practised as a kid .
* Here's a little aside from that other CFL forum . I suggested that Bertolet might be replaced on the roster by another American . That American didn't have to be a kicker . In fact a DB was added to replace Lawrence(DB) . With the new low bar on the CFL forum , it was insinuated that I don't know who our kickers are .
Everybody knows it's Cam Fraser and Steve Oneschuk .
