Rooting for him all the way back to the NFL. This is a good first step.

But I'd like to see him at least have a solid career in Canada, like Chip Cox has had. He has too much talent to be out of the game. Best of luck.

There is nothing wrong with having a career in Canada. Here's wishing him a long, successful career north of the border. “We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.” ― Epictetus Back to Top allen General User Member Since: 1/24/2006 Post Count: 4,635 Status: Offline     RE: The Amazing Lavon Brazill    Posted: 6/7/2016 11:25:28 PM  Wow, I am so happy for him. God is good. I can see him having a great year and being back in the NFL in the next two years. Stay hungry Lavon Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach.

Here is to hoping that he can string together a few years in the CFL.

If he returns to form as an elite wr in the CFL he will get a shot again with an NFL team.

Also the NFL will be taking a softer stance on marijuana in the coming years. Pain Killers are a serious problem in the NFL(USA in General), the arguments for Marijuana keep growing.

Talent keeps giving him opportunities and allow him to keep making a living at this time, but he's not even on the radar of the NFL right now as a two strike player on the substance abuse policy. By next NFL season he will be 28, already out of school longer than the average NFL career. Here's to hoping he has a good year and begins figuring out that question every player has to face at some point, life after the game.

Maybe some scout that saw his potential will watch his production. The first thing he has to do is make Winnipeg's roster, then he needs to produce. Nobody despises to lose more than I do.

Allen is right, though. Brazill needs to first make the roster, then produce.

Julian Posey was on the practice squad last year and is expected to be a starter this season: http://www.winnipegsun.com/2016/06/04/posey-wants-to-be-p... The one thing working against them both is the CFL's limit on "international" players. They can't have more than 20 on their 44-man roster. http://www.cfl.ca/game-rule-ratio / We will get by.

He isn't listed on their roster. http://www.bluebombers.com/roster / Too bad. Hope he lands somewhere else. Winnipeg's opening game included contributions from Bobcats, tho. Posey had four tackles for the Bombers and Chip Cox had six tackles and an INT for Montreal. He picked off our old friend Drew Willy. We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.

Sad, but very rare that kind of time off pays dividends. By now he's probably got poor representation as well to sell him to management.

An American guy like Brazill might have been better than some Canadian players but the team had to keep enough Canadian players to reach the minimum. Football is difficult to play professionally because there really aren't many leagues that offer a decent wage, whereas in basketball, there are hundreds of international leagues where players can be paid very well.
