SupaBran Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Alright!!! Hong Kong Fui returns!!! I like Coats but I hope he's the casualty. I still am not giving up on Simpson even if the coaches are. I think Tom Nelson could be cut and I wished we kept Marvin White.Marvin White can't get on the field for the Lions. Why should we have kept him? Simpson should be cut too. He's eating up a useful roster spot and hasn't contributed anything in 2 years. In fact, he's so bad I'd bet that he could pass through waivers and become eligible for the practice squad. Although it sucks to give up on a 2d round pick, it sucks worse to keep the loser around when his spot could be used for a much more deserving player.He doesn't play for the Lions! He plays for the Cowgirls!P.S. Good call on the Kooistra thing Blaine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ickey44 Posted November 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Per PFT:Vakupuna joins Bengals rosterPosted by Gregg Rosenthal on November 3, 2009 4:11 PM ETOne of the prime subplots in this season's Hard Knocks was the battle between two likeable rookie fullbacks: undrafted thumper Chris Pressley and seventh-round pick Fui Vakapuna.Pressley won out, scoring a practice squad job before landing on Tampa's 53-man roster. Now Vakapuna will get his own happy ending -- for now. The Bengals are adding him to their active roster, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.The team released tackle Scott Kooistra to make room for Vakapuna. Starting fullback Jeremi Johnson sat out practice Monday with a knee injury, but is considered likely to play against Baltimore this Sunday.Kooistra is bye bye.

DC_Bengals_Fan Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 My money's on Kooistra. A back-up lineman that will probably never see the field and is too old to be a developmental prospect.I hear ya. Reminds me of Marcellus Wallace's speech to Butch the Boxer in Pulp Fiction."You came close but you never made it. And if you were gonna make it, you would have made it before now."That's the printable version of the speech, anyway.Besides, why does Alexander need some schmoe like Andrews or Kooistra as a project? He's got Jason Shirley! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
