I was there yesterday...cold in those stands. Most of the day was teaching so everything was split up in segments on the field, e.g. linemen one area, defence another and so on. When I first got there our drafted kicker Felix Menard-Briere was on the field by himself. He was kicking field goals from the 55 yard line. The first 3 or 4 fell at the 5 yard line, but the rest went through the posts easily and was very accurate. Not quite sure about his punting though. He was on the field all practice running the end zone by himself. There are so many receivers in camp and so many Canadians for a change, pretty much focused on them when they were actually doing something to watch, which was not too often...but saw a lot of potential out there, much more than some previous seasons. Notables Donteea Dye #77 very interesting...good hands small and quick and very athletic Tylor Henry national did not look out of place Rashaun Simonize national #13...hmmm...big and fast, can see why he had an NFL look. Right now? not yet sold on his hands...lots of potential there for sure, but what good is a receiver if they are not reliable? Johnny Augustine #35, National, fast and strong, appears to have great hands out of the backfield and would be a load on 2nd and short. Was very impressed with him. Can't believe he wasn't drafted and then Edmonton signed him last year. Maybe something we don't know? Tyrone Pierre national #73, is big and strong looking and appears to have good hands and is fast enough caught virtually everything thrown his way Brendon Thera-Plamondon national also did not look out of place Corey Washington #6 Int...Looks very good and made some nice catches. Looks like we let the right Washington go Myles White Int #14 is really quick and has excellent hands, defensive backs would have hands full with him, sort of like a dressler type Drew Wolitarsky #82 national...looks much improved from last year, rooting for him. Didn't pay to much attention to the Qb's, but Strevelor is big and athletic and looks to have a quick release and strong arm. Ross looked good as well, will be interesting who plants themselves in the #2 spot. Also didn't pay too much attention to the D, but did see some nice interceptions and looks like there is plenty of speed. Only glad that Sam Hurl is gone, but if the defence runs the same way as last year, only improved skill levels from the defence will save the job of Richie Hall. Sorry I couldn't have done better but it was mostly a teaching practice19 points

It's actually not complicated. Will we see the third period Jets or the 00:35 Jets?3 points

The Bombers will only get credit for developing their own QB if one of their employees gives birth to him; he attends school in the Pinnacle room, is coached by Mike O'Shea from crunchers level through the Rifles, is picked as a territorial exemption by the Bombers and has never left IGF from birth to his first away game in the CFL.3 points

I'm on Team Chevy here. McPhee was given a list of players to choose from and handed some really key players. He hasn't built anything. Chevy has slowly, meticulously, built a team, drafting players that fit in Winnipeg. A couple of trades and very few FAs.2 points

I keep trying to envision what a ring in a toilet is. If its the seat or the ledge of the bowl, I think your jumpin off a little early if your hitting either with your log lol. Now I can get behind the team slappin DD's face on the urinal pucks on game day, or the very least the 2 games we have against the Riders at IGF, hell put those pucks up for sale at the bomber store and recoup some of the money he burned us for2 points -
Randall sucked.... Richie Williams could run a perfect play action but aside from that his noodle arm was also not good. From all our mediocre backups over the last 10 years I think the only ones that may have been something with good health and better coaching was Marve and Elliott.2 points

I'm hoping that Dressler is asked what he thinks of his pal leaving the BB in the lurch. As much as anything, Durant ****** his future teammates more than anyone else.2 points -
I feel bad for Toby. He made a stellar D play the very sequence before he got burned for that goal. The kind of stellar play that goes underappreciated because he doesn't play 82 anymore and get 50 pts while doing it. But alas, the last one to change often gets the scorn the next day. He just can't make the same plays he could 5 years ago. Same goes for Troobs. He got victimized on VGK first goal, but to me that's on 55 & 26 way before Trouba. Top line played well last night, don't get me wrong. But you can't (just can't) give up a road goal 30 secs in like that. Scheifs simply just has to get it in deep....who knows how that period would have played out if we don't start so poorly. In general, and this is NOT directed at MBB at all.........but there's FAR too much bellyaching in this town the last few days. This is the fu&$(%* West Final. Teams are supposed to be good, and VGK are. Jets win game 4, get home ice back, and take care of business. When Jets are doubted and have back against the wall, we play our best. Fully expect that for next game.2 points

Now that Darian has retired a Blue Bomber I feel like we need to honor Darian on the ring at IGF..... The ring of every toilet seat in the place so we can all sh** on him like the rotten piece of sh** he is. I also think Darian should take his daughter on trip to Montreal to meet Drew Willy, the guy that beat him out for the starting QB position last season. Then she can learn what a giant piece of sh** QB he really was. He is such a clown.2 points

Round 3 : Game 4 - The Hangover
kelownabomberfan reacted to TrueBlue4ever for a topic
So the Knights are pulling out the hijinks outside the games as well, on top of the ear tickling stuff in game. Day of Game 1, when the Jets had their morning skate, 2 maintenance workers were on the ice holding things up and cutting into the practice time and wouldn't leave when asked. On the off-day, yellow caution tape was put up blocking access to the ice when the Jets arrived for their optional skate. Today, during the Jets' allotted ice time, the lights in the arena were turned off. It's kind of sad but expected when fans do the disrupting, like fire alarm pulls in the visitors hotel at 2 am, but for the club itself to try this kind of nonsense is pure bush league stuff and needs to be addressed by the league.1 point -

Back Up QB
The Classic reacted to Bud Ross for a topic
My name is Bud Ross and I'm Alex Ross' grandfather. The competition for the QB backup slot at training camp will be intense. Here's a brief introduction of Alex with some history: As a freshman at Alpharetta High school, Alpharetta, Ga., he led the freshman team to an undefeated season. Coaching changes at Alpharetta, prompted him to transfer To Buford High School, Buford, Ga. Because of transfer rules, he couldn’t play varsity until his junior year. He led Buford to Georgia State championships his junior and senior years. He virtually owns the record book at Coastal Carolina University. He thinks, lives, and breathes football. Happy to be on board, Bud Ross1 point -
If he is so wobbly as to fall from a tree in Montreal, I doubt he could stand up to higher expectations in a place he has already fallen down many times.1 point

Don't really care where he is now, just so long as he never comes anywhere near this team again. My two favorite pictures from the Kelly era: the mug shot and the pic of him hauling his stuff out of the stadium in a bin. I only wish I could find that pic.1 point -

I went to a Bomber practice in 2008, just after Glenn had been demoted and Dinwiddie had taken over. I watched Randall run a few plays during a scrimmage and saw him miss open receivers by a huge margin. I don't think he was that good.1 point -
