    Bear looked to be pretty good at practice today.

    Nice to hear...any other notable news to pass along? Was Lemon at practise at all? As for Jordan, he is 32 and out of football for a couple seasons. Wonder if he may provide depth if Lemon is gone for now extended period of time?

    No Lemon. Will not play this week for sure. Marcus Ball, SJ Green and Brandon Harris all missing. Read they were home in Florida because of the hurricane. Butler, Laing and Sears all practicing and looking healthy.

    Thanks for the update sir. If Laing even so much as breaths on Mike Reilly Saturday, he will be unfairly dubbed a dirty player yet again. Argos could have a very strong D on the field. Look forward to seeing the game live.

    Jordon's signing raises a number of questions around age, playing condition and character. He is 32, hasn't played since 2014 and that was only for 2 games on special teams and it has been reported that he has been arrested twice for assault.

    Hopefully he has stayed in shape and is hungry to prove he can still play but the signing does seem like a bit of a long shot and perhaps another example of Popp's fascination of former NFL stars.

    Personally, I would have preferred giving Foster or Walker a chance at DE. Maybe Jordon will prove my concerns to ne unfounded. We will wait and see.

    If Foster continues to get no shot at DE - now with Lemon out too along with Butler = guess they don't think much of him so far, or else maybe Popp or Chamblin feel a NI should not be playing at DE ? Maybe he was drafted just for special teams ?

    Thanks Angelo. Feel free to *assume* that we're interested in hearing this stuff, by the way! ;)

    The fact that he hasn't played in two years and is 32 kind of sets off alarm bells. Is it here we go again with aged NFLers thinking they can come in a star in the CFL. As far as the assault, from what I read it was a locker room fight. That's never happened before. lol
