Oh please dont confuse me with a rider fan,I may puke.

Got to meet and talk with Patrick Neufeld and Stanley Bryant at the Wheat Kings game here in Brandon last night. What a couple of cool dudes and great ambassadors for the Bombers! You know that they're big guys, but until you stand right beside them, you don't get a full appreciation of how huge they actually are.

... Nolby is a Bomber fan and you must be drunk if you think his comment was a jab at the Bombers. Old people sure do struggle with the internet.

100% get Petey more involved. We are going to regret not giving this kid more opportunity.

Do you even know what a Grey Champion is? You've had just 4 in 109 years. Which means if you keep it up the Riders will reach 11 in the middle of the 24th century.

Would be nice to walk into Philly, punch them in their face, take the two points and let our two new acquisitions know this is going to work out well for them.

Be careful, that's how Saskatchewanites lure you in. They start small talk about the CFL. In 2007, the Saskatchewan premier concerned with the skyrocketing cost of health care caused by the effects of an almost singular gene pool in his province, set up back room health policies designed to help eliminate inbred pregnancies amongst his constituents. He lowered the price of bung baloney and encouraged the men to use baloney skin contraceptive barriers when being intimate with their sister/wife/cousins He also held the Estevan summit in which public health nurses were brought in to discuss a system of "hole in the white sheet" breeding to diversify the gene pool and raise overall intelligence levels across the province as they were far below average. At any rate, the male head of the household was encouraged to seek out superior, non genetically linked, males to act as sperm donors to impregnate their wives through holes in a white sheet. Men from Manitoba were targeted, as their Bomber gear, made them easy to spot and a clear indication of superior intelligence. They usually try butter you up with potato whisky then take you out to the sheet behind the barn and show you pictures of women that aren't their wives claiming that this is the woman on the other side. Very sneaky....but I can't blame them for trying.

Tasker- 5 catches 65 yards .39 TD per game 90 catches 1170 yard 7 TD per season Dressler- 4 catches 62 yards .54 TD per game 72 catches 1116 10 TD per season ^ There's the career stats broken down per game and season. Lawler is our star IMO. Already right there and primed for a huge breakout with more usage.

Any receiver back from last year knows the system/playbook better than Tasker would coming in..and not sure what all this Dressleresque comparisons are about..he had one season which was relatively decent..but nothing awe inspiring.. go check his stats And now he is older..and his track record has shown that he isnt a guy able to put in a full season..let alone 16 games..hard pass Bailey though under untsized would be effective if seeing more than 2-4 targets a game..good hands..strong..fights for yards and was big in blocking scheme Whitehead as well...if removed form the role Lapo was trying to force feed as well would be very effective and has the right attitude.. it gonna be Walker coming in..or nothing and I okay with that We have 3 rights coming to camp who I very intruiging by and who may make some noise..to the point Bailey and or Lawler shouldn't get too comfy..and that's a good thing as it will bring out the best in the incumbants

No way in hell Tasker signs with WPG.

Why the hate for Bailey? He played well when he did & I like the guy. No problem with him as one of our starting receivers.

Tasker would add nothing to us that we dont have already inhouse..other thanks higher price point...pass As for 3 canadian receivers...another big pass..we would have to roster at least 2 other more than capable backups as the ratio would have to be stipulated pre game..those 3 would give us basically all the same thing and really narrow/limit what we could/would do offensively

Well he wouldn't have Trouba to *party* with anymore so who knows....

Time tested way to avoid being arrested on drug charges: Dont travel with a large amount of illegal drugs in your car. It works well.

Oh it gets better... much better. And the best part... the Head Spy of the entire USA intelligence apparatus (who has no experience in intelligence) can be easily blackmailed.

Well they'd have 3-4 guys they are comfortable with playing D minimum for the one spot, and they don't have to declare that a NI will be used at a certain position, just that a NI will be on the field at all times on D. So right now there's Thomas, Briggs, Miles, the DB's, Griffiths and whoever we draft, plus Hansen who can't "start" as one of the 7 but unless it changes for this season he can sub in for anyone. Worst case scenario if Thomas and Briggs go down you throw a guy out at field corner if it comes down to it, 2/3 of the QB's in the league can't make a throw out to the field, you just gotta switch to a zone that will make it harder for the O to isolate that guy. **** that used to be the gameplan...remember Matt Bucknor?

Surprised LaPo doesn't seem to be interested in Tasker, he'd be a perfect fit for his O in Ottawa, at least a stopgap until they can find a younger receiver to take his place.

Yeah a legit 2 Center and a 1st would be awful. Hopefully Roslo is tried with 81 and 29 first

He probably confused Nolby with someone else but you have to admit, it was a pretty good dig at the Riders. 🙂

Tasker is a washed up Woogie......just feels redundant. I want to find ways to get Petey on the field....not take up more space with has-beens...

I actually really like this signing for MTL. Roosevelt will be able to help Vernon Adams out a lot.

Tasker ill give you, but the other two? Yes, washed up.

Down to one "name" receiver left................. #CmonDownToWinnipeg #WeBoutThatSmoke

Definitely frustrating to see a guy like Rhymes who is coming off a break out season sign elsewhere for 95k. Talented receiver. Wish we signed him.

The movie's US distributor had a great response:

The guy had twenty goals last season, he isn't a scrub.

Henry Burris has always been a moron...this tweet helped confirm it.

I think Tasker should take his Dressler like talents to Ottawa and stay away.

Lawler is for sure an up and coming star. He can make spectacular catches. Now we have a qb that will give him a chance to showcase that more

If it was a moral issue they kept him for a full season after the suspension. Doesn't seem that way.

The Riders released Thigpen this year. There was a comment made on RF that they released him because of his PED use and that we should do the same with Andrew Harris for the same reason. Are we comparing apples to oranges here? Thigpen said he was out of football before signing with the Riders (2 years) and was using because he was "physique modeling". When he tested positive he had just come back to football and it hadn't cleared his system yet. In Andrew's case, he blamed a contaminated supplement was responsible for his positive test. Harris tested positive for Metandienone, a PED that has fallen out of favour due to it's ineffective results. Thigpen for dehydrochloromethyltestosterone, a powerful anabolic steroid. The Bombers have in Harris a player that is better, younger (32), is not injury prone, Canadian, a home town boy, and adamantly insists he never knowingly took any PEDs. I don't think the Riders released Thigpen because of his positive test. I think they released him because he was a 33 year old American with a history of injuries. Apples to oranges.

I wouldn’t mind that lineup if Demski mostly played field WR and worked inside here and there, also take some reps in the backfield with or without Harris in there with him. The versatility in the routes he has success with isn’t there for him to be more than a 4th target IMO. We bogged down a lot the past couple seasons when Lapo got enamored with Demski as more than a role player. Walker would mostly play the boundary...Adams would mostly play inside. We’d have to be prepared to switch the ratio so still need some guys on D who can play. I don’t think we’d go truly all import on D because it would hamstring the team in game if there are injuries.

A little research suggests this was actually just a joke... He forgot #sarcasm at the end

This is the same league that (right or wrong) keeps Pete Rose out of the HOF for gambling. Total double standard.

Nice write up from Tait "“I’m a computer nerd,” began Awe with a chuckle, during a conversation with bluebombers.com from his offseason base in Chicago. “When I was hurt last year in Toronto I couldn’t just sit there and not do anything, so I ended up creating what is basically a prediction app for football. Now I use that technology to predict plays even faster, even more efficiently than ever." "“Maxx and Chandler and I were close friends in B.C. They both went to Winnipeg and both aren’t there right now but they both said ‘This is a great organization.’ It says something to hear that from players who aren’t even there anymore are still talking super positive about it.”"

Dirty POS player can't give your QB a concussion if he's on your team.

Yeah? I can now do gin curls in both directions...

sissy squats and nordic curls...the opposite...laying prone on a bench and raising up like a back exyension when your knees are pinned down...he has really re-invented his work outs..i see it daily

Seen this on The Exorcist before I think...

For those who don't seem him, he has posted a number of his workouts videos on Instagram.

new contract is a good birthday present!

as I said in the other forum...I see Biggie daily...and what he's doing training wise and he is 100 percent healthy...from his sled work...weight and range he does on a Jefferson curl and his squats...there's nothing wrong with his Hammy, and if there was even a slight issue with it still...it would have exploded already..also looks a lot more leaner and athletic than last year

Awe is being brought in for STs, and to compete with Wilson at WIL. Zero chance we move on from Bighill.

Derek Dennis says there was no interest in him from CFL teams. Maybe they became aware of his lack of understanding about fog.

We did know this.. The Bomber culture keeps on growing. We know it. We hear it all the time. But I still like hearing about it. Here’s Josh Johnson and his take... “I had a few offers… I was talking with Calgary, with Winnipeg and still in contact with Edmonton,” said Johnson in a conversation from his offseason base in Florida. “But talking to different guys around the league and the guys who play in Winnipeg and they were all talking about the organization and how it changes you as a player, about how much they loved playing there.“I know they have a great coach and playing against Coach O’Shea and seeing how he coaches makes you want to play for him. Being a small league you hear so many different stories about playing for different teams. A lot of it is from coaches and when you are around guys who understand the game it makes you want to be a part of it. Talking to so many guys, it had me stuck on coming to Winnipeg.“Plus,” Johnson added with a chuckle, “I already know it’s a good decision because I’ve had so many people welcome me to Winnipeg. It’s really been ridiculous the response from fans, different players and they’re all telling me I’m going to love being there.” https://www.bluebombers.com/2020/02/17/already-know-good-decision-johnson-looking-make-winnipeg-football-home/?utm_source=dlvr.it

I'm pretty sure that the CFL is not planning on playing in the World's Series or in MLB in general, so I think we're safe.

Dummmmmmmmb idea. Why not focus on making the season start a month earlier instead of this garbage.

I actually don't mind what they're saying EXCEPT the whole circus of choosing who you play. Why embarrass a team like that? Nobody wants to be seen as the easy out. And to publicize it? Awful idea.
