Bombers financials for the year are out...

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

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.

Is it me or is the Valour experiment something that should be ended? Just seems like a monetary money pit. Being 5.7 million in the black during a non GC hosting year is fantastic.

$1.25M goes a long way for the Bombers. They are also extra wear and tear on the field. The league in general just doesn’t seem worth the hassle. Soccer fans (and some will claim there are a lot) don’t exist or don’t show up.

Wait, so my brain isn't like an egg? A fried egg isn't my brain on drugs? Suddenly, I have so many questions.

It's done after this season. A big chunk of that league will be gone. Will basically be a GTA and Vancouver/Victoria league. The model they are working under makes it impossible for the league to grow. It's part of the whole Canada Soccer fiasco.

This is a great point. Honestly the sum she’s suing for is soo relatively small I’m surprised mlse didn’t just write a cheque and slap a gag order on this.

record for a CFL club (likely) according to Naylor..... hey Gappers: Eat ****.

Big Mac's instead of hotdogs and that was pretty much his recipe for success.

I’ve heard he liked something stronger.

In some cases, what people receive in a final judgement that is seen as a win can't be measured purely by money.

That would require a conscience.

I think the club agrees with the assessment on Valour based on these last few paragraphs in Tait's article

Huge huge longshot but I would looooove if the Blues overtook the Knights for the final wildcard spot. Oh that would be awesome. Like having the scenario where the Ducks and Hawks beat the Knights the last two games to play the spoilers would be sweeeet.

My takeaways from the latest bit of Argo news to come out; If what's been described is true sure paints Chad as an immature child that didn't get what they want and lashing out. Fits the MO. The info clearly ties Pinball as knowing what was going on. If true I don't think it's only John Murphy that has to have a CYA plan. Murphy may be the fall guy, but as I've said before, the actions and inactions of the employer in this case are as significant as the harassing actions itself.

Celestin Haba is a super legit athlete. 37.5-inch vertical jump for a defensive end is really really good. I think Chauncey Rivers will be good competition for him with that NFL experience. That's an exciting addition I hope we can get one or two more studs signed on the defensive line

Burden of proof is lower - but in most cases - so is the satisfaction with the final outcome.

Ok boomer

All the combine testing does is show who is serious about moving to the next level. If you're an OL walking into a combine where you can't do 20 reps of 225....you're showing that you're not willing (or able) to do the work to be a pro. Now if you have tremendous film you'll probably get a chance to prove that wrong. If the film is meh, the testing is meh, the on field stuff is meh, you're done.

With the utmost respect, you are misinformed in several areas here good sir but I have realized that aiming to inform on this topic in an online forum is an exercise in futility. At least we can agree to one thing, go Blue lol

Heavy sarcasm. Lol.

The amicable Bruce Johnson!

If there's not already, there should be a stat for high, medium and low quality shots that has nothing to do specifically with Ehlers, just a thought as I read this.

Free Valour tickets for every purchase of a Bomber ticket. Get people to show up, buy some food, and hopefully fall in love with soccer?

I also remember him right after him being found not-guilty in the criminal case passionately declaring he will not rest until he finds the actual killer (s)? It's been sometime now, what 30+ years, haven't heard much, actually nothing in this relentless pursuit and pouring of resources into finding the real killer(s)? ffs

New turf and new ribbon boards will be a great addition. Maybe they can re-purpose the old ribbon boards to field level.

I thought the Charles Roberts plan was red bull, smokes, hotdogs, strip clubs and weed?

wrong....soooo wrong....hahaha...or is that arcasm?...I'm thinking it may be after rrading it a second time....if so....carry on....I was just speed reading stuff as I am in and out of here fast for most part Also in regards to measureables and combine numbers/reported numbers...take all with grain of salt...especialy 40 times....Straight line speed with no ball in your hands, or a target you are pursuinf doesn't really mean a lot....what you do with a ball....in and out of breaks...or that extra gear when fluidly running...thats where you look...same with d-line...first step...how and where they place and use hands in regard to that...and who has a real good tilt...thats where u find your speed demons off the edge

Most of what people receive in a final judgement, is usually spent on legal fees. Unless they settle, as you described. Litigation is not the win people think it is.

My 11 year old listens to more Green Day because of that game. If nothing else I call that a parenting win coming out of that crap day.

Insert Norm Macdonald sound bites here https://www.tmz.com/2024/04/11/oj-simpson-dead-dies-cancer/ you know it's a good thing I spent the 90s unaware of the news around me otherwise THAT coverage would have driven me bonkers. 7 years ago my parents and I were on vacation in Grand Forks and we were on a break from shopping, what happened next was kind of unavoidable, every single channel was covering his parole hearing, even the CBC feed they had. I told them they were better off watching the weather channel, but they ended up watching the coverage anyway

Not a terrible reliable source though, they post claimed numbers. They are good at updating nfl combine prospects but not none invites. Si has his official time at 4.9. They also have his claimed fast time incorrect. Vert is a better success indicator than 40 for de, broad even better. Problem is many schools for pro days do max vert and list as vert instead of no step. it’s dumb for sure. But I mean he was kid. Kids are dumb. Could also have felt he needed it for inflammation/pain. A lot of ncaa kids smoke weed or cbd to try and avoid opioids.

Its not the THC per se but continuing to use when you are already marked and risking almost certain being caught and blowing a career that (theoretically) you have been pursuing is a strong indicator of either being mega stoned or you have the intelligence of dryer lint.

actually haba ran 4.69 Celestin Haba - OLB - Texas AM-Commerce - 2023 Draft Scout/NCAA College Football I'd love to see them sign Kongbo as well

Nate Givhan has retired according to the CFL transactions page.

I read the first sentence as images of matlock immediately sprung to mind lol.

So he's relatable!

Never said that.......but in fairness to Stanley ,hes looked pretty damn good last few games.

In other news, Argo's suck, CK not a guy I would like representing an organization I love and adore but hey I just live in an echo chamber not willing to listen to the one argo fan's 'perspective'.

Qft. Happy for more money to the team other wise.

Yup. Most pot users grow out of it.

I should have added the as everyone wants Pionks to sit the next game.

A pothead who seems committed to toking.
