not sure what to make of this, esp. with a quality punter in Dales is on the roster, who's not a headcase.

What a goofy signing, did Dales get an NFL tryout?

[browna]

Higgins said not as a slight to current punter, but for some competition in training camp.

I'd rather see some competition at the QB position...

Agreed.

No doubt. Wasn't Dales an all-star? There's got to be some other areas they can focus on? (Like receivers who don't act like idiots)

Or a QB whose brain doesn't melt in key situations?

What happened to O'mahoney last year? Didn't he disappear for a week or something, and his parents issued a missing person report?

Perrrrrrrfect......tht's just what we need. More wierdos on the team.

I heard (on QR77 from Stephens or Higgins) that it was for competition in training camp, but also to impress upon Dales the importance of directional punting. He was great at the long deep punts, but trying to direct a punt was something that he struggled with.

I can kick better than O Mahoney.

I'd think Browna can kick better than O Mahoney as well.

Hell, I'd say that you could take a kicker from most Division 1 rugby teams in the province and have a much better kicker than O Mahoney as well. I don't get how he still has a job as a professional.
