He skipped another practice in frustration as Raiders close up camp, GM Mike Mayock told media he wants to know if AB is 'all-in or all-out' and that the Raiders have exhausted all their options trying to support him.

He has now filed another grievance, probably focusing this and why he isn't getting a 1 year waiver to switch like the other players got last year. The helmet can't pass safety tests though, so if safety is a priority, he shouldn't be allowed on the field with it. He does have a point though. If the helmet is banned now, then he should get a 1 year period to switch. If they are just saying the helmet can't pass the tests, then that will be harder to determine what happens.

Supposedly the Field is horrible and if that’s the case, I don’t want him or any other starter playing a snap on that surface.

I never knew there was even such a thing as Winnipeg, Alberta. Or that tshirts of the city were made.

I always wonder what it's like living in a city where you're not even the most known city by that name. In this case, not even most popular Winnipeg in Canada.

It's like Hollywood, Florida vs Hollywood, California lol.

So it sounds like things in Winnipeg are going well for the Raider and Packers before the game has even started.

This has been one of worst run preseason games ever.

Whoever was in charge should be ashamed.

If I'm a fan, I'm demanding a refund. High prices, no starters, not even a full field of actual football.

Shouldn’t be playing there in the first place.

Cam left the game tonight with a foot injury but I think he'll be fine. He's not going to play next week regardless so two weeks off rest should allow him to be ready week 1.
