They always do no matter what.

Couple years they’ll be back at it too.

From the home of the expert in clinging to 4 of some thing and a lot of losing lol

Yep. If you count modern actual football titles challenged for by a national league it’s probably us 2 edm 1 and only two out of first place.

Yeah even if he doesn’t he’s worth it. It’s worth the expense just to have the potential mop and dominant qb. The alternative is soo bad when you watch what crappy teams are going through. Id love to get strevy back and cut poopkup

Winnipeg is a city of 750k, with one of the best neighbourhoods to live in in all of Canada, an nhl team, the 3rd most gc wins,the founder of the 911 call system, the longest continually operating ballet company in North America, worlds longest out door skating rink, slurpee capitol of the world, and soo generally teaming with culture great food and entertainment that time magazine named it one of the best places to live in the world. Oh and it’s the home of the loudest fans in the cfl with the highest attendance in the league again. So I guess 30,000 people want to watch the bombers play each week. Good luck, and sorry the educational system failed you soo mightily in your back water, but what more can be expected from the hills have eyes province?

To be fair your whole team is nothing but pr off casts and tcf and has been for years.

That is a good question. “Once a standard player contract is signed, the player is entitled to the contract salary, no matter the roster he appears on (active, reserve, injured) except the suspended or disabled lists, until he is released.“ if the player doesn’t get the money I can’t imagine it applies to the cap. So im sure we get the base of his salary off, but not any signing bonuses etc.

Blue Bombers - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
wbbfan replied to JCon's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I think some people are suffering from serious cognitive dissonance over this being the worst performing squad we’ve had since before the 19 run, but is about to clinch a play off/home play off game. And the level of play in the league has gotten much better too. I see what could still be a gc year and should be a dynasty slipping away. Normally in the mafia era it’s seemed like we’ve just needed a key player. A wr, nose, qb, etc. but now with the issues being internal, I don’t even see things getting better via a key trade/fa pick up/ or guy developing. We have most of the pieces we need to succeed, but we insist on not making use of them. That’s a really good way to put it honestly. Poaching happens it’s just such a minor thing with how much teams cycle through guys on their pr. Guys seldom sit a whole year on prs any more. The league has a bunch of floaters in each city waiting to get a pr or ar deal. The league really needs a better catch mechanism to keep talent in the league and paid. -

Yes they can. But no team, our side of maybe a jones team is going to keep a guy who wants to take the claim instead. Pr isn’t really holding rights. It’s more like free agents that get to practice with you. -

https://www.profootballnetwork.com/cal-linebacker-kuony-deng-is-a-prospect-with-loaded-potential/ https://www.nfl.com/prospects/quinton-bell/32004245-4c52-8610-7855-43ab9e547ed6 Deng is a monster athlete with good size. Bell is a bit light but an out of this world athlete and 6’6. Very Willy j career path. Martin is a former 4 star recruit with monster athleticism and good size. After the army he struggled with snaps at some good schools. Strong pet project type. Wilson reminds me a bit of grant All 4 are highly desirable developmental guys and likely to kick around the nfl for a bit. We’d be damn lucky to get one of the dl. -

Guys sitting on the pr want to play they aren’t turning down roster spots, especially chances to start hence why pr players picked nearly always go to the new team. You can be ir’d then scratched too. Don’t know what was offered. Montgomery was in the aafl then xfl and bc camp/pr twice. -

When’s the last time a bomber said no to being plucked from the pr? 2019? -
I wonder what it’ll take for people to wake up?
-
Reductio ad absurdum at its best. I remember when the same was said of old Dave. Same is true of every player coach in history. About the best to be expected out of mos. I hope we don’t lose Habba and I hope it doesn’t cost us. Bad db at Sam, 3rd best dl on the pr, worst imp on the team on the game day. hope Hansen is ready soon.

Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news
wbbfan replied to WinnipegGordo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Imo the cfl took a back step a few years ago. Teams pushed the boundaries on after the play crap more and more and the CFL just didn't crack down on it. Now its rampant. The huge huge majority of the time you do see a penalty on after the play chippiness it is off setting. No one gets ejected. League needs to really clean the game up. -
To be fair we have often wasted a di on offence. Remember Flanders being a di over and over again not to see the field once? Wonder if Hansen is staying on the ir. That’d be really weird after two weeks of full practices.
-
Watch him get poached by another team now. 9-3 roster management. 9 bad moves 3 good ones.
-
Gotta get both Habba and Hansen on if they are healthy. Really hope we don’t take Parker off and go with no real back up db again.
-
If it’s for Jackson great. If it’s for Cole boooo. Checked and he did get waived from the jets ir finally with a buy out. Might be waiting till he’s healthy to sign. Imagine how many jerseys they’d sell in that one day if they signed him for the bjb? Lol fuel some nice over spending for the rest of the year.

You should’ve watched them all, dominant through most of our games in the score board? We’ve turned it up late in a big chunk of our wins after playing well but being close. same argument comes out after each loss or ugly game. But our record! It’s one loss, no 2 no 3 but our record!!!! Edmonton bc and Saskatchewan have embarrassed us in games. Ott beat us and we made ham look like contenders. Basement dweller basement dweller middle of the road east team. They didn’t answer the bell vs ott, bc, ssk. I mean that’s a great job of coming right back if you want to lose a division semi -

Better off with Brady Demski or Bailey getting touches. A lot better.
