  1. The roster changes will be interesting in the next few weeks. I'm surprised to see Dinwiddie released but Bombers' Mike Kelly does seem to have a clear plan with his roster. Als' Andrew Hawkins is suspended while he tries out on that reality tv show Fourth and Long. Saw the first episode and seemed fairly interesting but are you going to get a better look through a game show or in an actual training camp? For now, it appears he has hung on to his roster spot anyway.

  2. I hear that, looks like with Hackney and Dinwiddie looking for jobs, LeFors has the job all sewen up. And yeah Hawkins looks great on the show, having seen all of the episodes he's probably the favorite to win it but clearly things can change quickly. But my best guess is that an actual training camp would be better based on the fact that you're going to be going against better competition not other training camp foder (is that how you spell that?).
