If I was them the only changes I would make is the ones the NFL has looked at for the future. Like wider fields, cfl style return rules etc. Give a product that's the future of American football. Also, I liked the sprint to center field for the first position vs the coin flip. Skip the silly endless forward passes junk. You could even create excitement by heavily limiting pass rushing. But im sure they will do some thing stupid with rules.

what happens when the XFL fails for the second time? Does trump come out and shave mcmahons head?

Vince McMahon considers move to bring back the XFL
wbbfan replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
1 down 1 to go. -
Im sure this is the case. I suspect we have good money for a wr and a lber even. This should be the most cap room weve had post FA frenzy in the last 3 years or so.

What he went through sounds absolutely terrifying. The fact he is still pursuing football like this shows tremendous heart and desire to play. You can create a pro football career based on heart, work ethic and football IQ. (wade miller) Hope he does well in camp. 100% the cba will get done. Im not worried about that at all. Im sure we will see some concessions to the players, and deservedly so. But no one is gonna get hooped between the teams and the players. Also agree 100%. The als could not have been in a worse position previously. Short of maybe the gliebermans returning. I dont think the league will have to prop up the als long term either. That market is too strong and passionate a year from now Id be surprised if they didnt have a long term solution to ownership in montreal. First step in a long recovery process for that franchise. I worry more about the argos then the als. It is what it is. Little else to talk about any way. I think its all a bit rushed but I dont see any harm coming from it.

Not a fan of protecting QBs sliding head first the same as hook sliding.
-
Id be good with that. madden glitches can eat their heart out.
-
My fingers are crossed for betts but yeah I think we look long and hard at DL too.
-
over under 1 guy from this draft making an active roster this year?
-
Annnd it's over. Looks good on manziel. I'd take bass back on a low cost deal. He'd look great next to Bighill.
-
His injury was pretty catastrophic, and it doesn't take long for a STs guy like him to fall between the cracks. Never know, hes still in his 20s and iirc was involved in some fashion with the PA.

Vince McMahon considers move to bring back the XFL
wbbfan replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
As compared to mike singletary, steve spurrier, mike martz, bill polian, With troy polamalu and hines ward involved as well. I feel like the mere existence of both the xfl and aaf makes for a nearly 0% chance both combine for 3 seasons before folding. -
His real contribution was on teams, it was just a bonus that he rostered as an extra WR. Id take him back in camp in a heartbeat and see if he still has it. Maybe he ends up switching over to DB for depth.
-
I shouldnt have, but I laughed when I heard this. $%&# that guy.
-
that said the night before a LD game he was seen by many (including my self) out late with booze and women I was sure he was going to be hung over and play miserably. Yet he busted off close to 200 yards rushing in a laugher. You can never know a would have happened IF this or that. Maybe his body wouldn't have held up as long as it did if he trained like milt. Or maybe if he did it from a young age he would have run a 40 faster then 4.6 coming out of college and been Darren sproles 2.0 in the nfl or better. He was such a phenomenal player, right up there with milt as my favorite bomber. Harris is my favorite current bomber. Leo Lewis is one of the greatest bombers of all time. Picking 2 is nigh impossible. With that said id currently, take blink and Lewis. Though I feel like Harris with blink in a sellers type role would be ungodly. Its hard to compare guys cross any generational gap. I think you have to take what they did in their respective eras and compare the dominance. Rather than compare the athletes. Athletically, even the guys from the 01 team would have trouble measuring up today.

The MBB All-Time Blue Bomber Team - Offensive Tackle
wbbfan replied to TrueBlue4ever's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
You could make an OL that might be the best ever, just out of the tackles. For my money, its walby and rigney. -
3rd year and atleast 2 full camps, JSK wasnt JSK at the start of the year he emerged. The opportunity has been there for him. There was also talk of gauz (sp?) and a couple others who didnt pan out.
-
depends, do you want a job as the 4th ni qb? and do you have 4 friends who also want those jobs? that just sounds awful
-
IMO, a lot of those kids exist. The problem is keeping them in football till they get here. I also think -1 NI starter but +2 NI roster spots fixes a lot of problems.
-
QFT id be fine with giving a guaranteed spot on each team for 1 world player in TC but that's it. Id like to see this for NI qbs as well actually. It used to be an unwritten rule, a thing every team did but the guy had no chance. I hope this is the case.
-
Not holding my breath on Wilson, 3rd camp up here Id be kind of surprised if he emerged all of a sudden. That said I feel like wlb is not a hard spot to fill when you have a MLBer like bighill to play next to. I wouldn't be surprised to see us rotate that spot more than ever before. We always carry a lot of lbers, And it's even easier to find guys with a single strong area of play (pass rushing, coverage, tackle box scraping etc) and filling the role by committee. I feel like this would have been a great chance to move some guys around from previous years (loffler to wil for instance) but Im sure we will fill the spot with quality. I wouldnt be surprised if we see one of the NI Sts guys we are loaded with step into a larger role with a good chunk of the wil reps.

CFL Considering Resurrecting "Regional Player Protection"
wbbfan replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
still not anywhere near as bad as the franchise tag in the NFL. But similarly, you could force teams to pay X amount if they choose to use the territorial exemption. -
CFL Considering Resurrecting "Regional Player Protection"
wbbfan replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
this is true, Id say that kid should be paid as a first rounder atleast. If not a top half first rounder. -
When the Atlantic team comes in, I wouldn't mind seeing the No of NI starters drop to 6, and increase the active roster by one or two NIs. Young guys still get a chance to play and prove them self, earn spots. Teams can start that 7 and get an extra DI, but they aren't forced into starting someone whose a fringe roster guy.

CFL Considering Resurrecting "Regional Player Protection"
wbbfan replied to Noeller's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I agree. I think it would push the teams to develop the grassroots much more. maybe it should be a team option though and cost a draft pick. But I like the idea.
