Bombers financials for the year are out...

After that game our cat got out and got under the deck, which is about a foot high. She got scared and hid far underneath. I had to army crawl under to get her. In the process I knelt in dogshit. Also tripped and smoked my head on the downspout. …It was still the better part of the evening.

If you swap out every letter in Pete for a different letter, it spells John stay woke people

Abra Cadabra!!!

Some of you mistake the legal process with professional conduct policy. The CFL doesn’t have to wait for anything if they determine their conduct policy has been violated.

If it's true that the commish is dismissive of this and not taking it seriously, then I might just be joining the bandwagon calling for his head. That's inexcusable and good on the women who quit over it.

the road to redemption and healing after a nasty departure has begun......... I am so stoked this is happening!

I know absolutely nothing about any of these prospects, but I promise to get upset when Walters doesn't pick the one guy everyone says we want!

We probably missed the boat on this. I feel like the could have been a deal to be had earlier... 😂 Walters: How about we swap your 1st overall pick for Damian Jackson, straight up. Jones: Not a chance! Walters: Do you know how many different positions you could convert him to? Jones: Jones: You got yourself a deal!

I watched every game for one RSEQ team for the last 4 years, and am in no way an actual football scout, but here's my take on some of the RSEQ players: Ben Labrosse and Kevin Mital - they are two of the three best football players I've seen in the RSEQ. The other was Josh Archibald, now on the BC Lions. Labrosse and Mital will definitely make CFL rosters this season. Both should be impact players in the CFL. Nathaniel Dumolin-Duguay - He's at least a backup guard in the CFL now, starter down the road. Laval OL are really well prepared to play at the next level, providing they have the size, athleticism, which he does. Dawson Pierre - Hodge has him going in the 4th round. If a team gets him in the 4th round they've scored. I'd be shocked if he doesn't have a decent CFL career. Special team player at a minimum. Every game I watched he made an impact. Totally disruptive force on D. Draft writers talk about him playing in the box in the CFL. I think he could stick with safety, be a Taylor Loffler type. I'm a big fan of his. Frédérik Antoine - Depending on the team, I think he could make a roster next season. Laval's offense was so good he probably didn't stand out as much as he could have on another team. Fast, smooth, good hands. Had a good combine.

Man I don’t like the auto scrimmage from the 40 after a td. Maybe if it’s a none offensive td and make it automatic after a fg. I’d rather move the teams closer and make it slower speed for td kick offs. And or the no one can move until the ball is caught. Kr is a pivotal part of the Canadian football identity.

I see you are unfamiliar with Farhan Lalji! 😂 I don't think anyone can compete with him in that area, it's just that the rest of the TSN crew might be closer to his level of nut hugging this season.

Further info from the league website just in case anyone forgot... The 2024 CFL Draft will take place on Tuesday, April 30 at 8:00 p.m. EDT and feature 74 selections over eight rounds. The Edmonton Elks currently hold the first overall selection, followed by the Ottawa Redblacks and Saskatchewan Roughriders. The CFL’s Global Draft will take place earlier that same day at 11:00 a.m. EDT. Rookie camps across the country will open on May 8 with teams being required to reduce their rosters to 85 players (excluding non-counters) by May 11. Training camps will open on May 12 with teams needing to reduce their rosters to 75 players (excluding non-counters) by May 14. Training camps will conclude on June 1.

"John Hodge is a ******* moron" - WBB FC

Spotters need to pull Butler (Sask at #1) & Lewis (Edmonton at #2) to check for concussions.

For whatever reason, I feel like I’d really lost sight of how many interesting prospects the Bombers brought in this off-season. Not too worried about the massive amounts of WR or DB, that’ll sort itself out with reps but I do appreciate some of these names … real high calibre guys being brought up here. 5 names to watch in my obviously incredibly educated opinion: WR KJ Hill, DE John Waggoner, DT Jamal Woods, DB Travon Fuller, DB Juan Lua Bonus name, I think it’s a foregone conclusion he’s QB3: Eric Barriere Bonus name if Janarion Grant doesn’t come back: WR Aron Cruickshank

Wade would be an interesting choice, but I don't want to lose him from the Bombers.

Yup as it should be. Blue and Gold in his veins. Oh and Argos suck.

What if they are a fullback/Running back with military service in their background, who also rescues old ladies from burning buildings?

I would prefer that we drafted three FBs instead.

I could do with another 2019 Grey Cup - leave no doubt from start to finish.

I want an apology from 3Down.

Such an absolute loser of a person.

Probably the most intriguing set of prospects we’ve had since TC of 2021. Glad to see the front office isn’t thinking status quo. Finally some roster battles!

Thanks guys for rescuing this thread! Time to get excited for camp where we hear one good thing about a guy and then can imagine him being an all-star! Can't wait!

The plaintiff could lose the civil or criminal case and the CFL could still decide that what happened has violated their code of conduct policies.

You forgot 5 ounces of rye...neat...in a paper cup.

I personally couldn't think of any CFL players, former/present who played defense that got into trouble for cannabis related "crimes" while also struggling academically, who then became a star or hell even a HOF player. That has never happened.....there are also exactly zero CFL players who currently consume large amounts of cannabis during the season.....that also never happens....I've never personally seen all star players in cannabis shops purchasing products that are meant to be inhaled....not me....no sir....the CFL would never put up with those dope users.

That Valour dead weight is hurting the club. They have to find a way to break even, at the very least.

I just bought two tickets for the Grey Cup In Vancouver. Time to move on from the past and prep for the drive for five!

The CFL would have to hold a special lottery draft for a guy like the Seal - way too special to be lumped in with the the average player!

Can we just refer to "Pete" as John H... no that's too obvious, let's say J. Hodge?

My all time favourite....

The game was cancelled! Nothing bad happened!

If the Ticats had any thoughts of mounting a comeback, those were put to rest real quick.

I'd like it to work out much better honestly

And had a lot of fun doing it!

Wasn't Osh who made any comment about how we will draft. It was Walters. He stated that "our kind of guy" is one that is physical, tough, and loves to play the game. I see nothing wrong with any of that being a prerequisite for any of our draft picks. If you want to attribute it to Osh, and move the goal posts on what was said have at it though, I don't see Walters as a guy who is leaving talent on the board at the draft. Yea, he had a rough draft last year but so did every other GM. It was an awful draft year. Winnipeg is also happy that BC lost out on the bidding for BO's services. I guess this is a win win....actually nope...the Lions lost and are apparently giddy about it.

You have a real lack of understanding of mental health issues, the factors that lead to them, and the outcomes of mental health. You should educate yourself rather than making unsupported claims.

Just show me the injury stats for kick returns and prove this isn't all based on anecdotes and speculation.

Comes off sounding like a tool who didn’t get his way. Probably a comment better left kept to himself, can’t see other GM’s particularly happy with those comments.

To paraphrase "waaaaaaahhhhhhhhh"

I hope despite Bennett and Schmekel they realize they still need DL from this draft. Because there's a handful of really good ones. Athletic, rush end types and 3 tech types...some who played end in U Sports/NCAA. Need to replace Hansen/Maruo too not in terms of Global status but their reps.
