Are you on crack? I'm not anti Elgersma despite what Mike says. The kid's a rookie. You're already saying Zach's cooked so you've handed him the starting spot already. The kid needs time. You don't throw him in without experience.

Yeah, Scheifle wasn't good enough for Team Canada in February. The Team Canada coaches & managers can GTH.

It does but the Riders are the team to beat in the West until someone else does. Watch out for the Lions. That passing offense is going to be something.

I didn't say they were but to think Zach should play behind Elgersma because he can throw with his arm & Zacjwith his whole body is ridiculous.

I remember when the Bombers traded away Don Jonas to Hamilton & threw rookie Dieter Brock to the wolves thinking he was ready to start in a game against the Eskimos at Clarke Stadium in September of 1974. Brock got the **** beat out of him that game. Completing barely a third of his passes & serving up I believe 4 picks as well as being sacked over & over all game long. It really showed that Brock wasn't ready for prime time. He sat behind Chuck Ealey for a year until HC Bud Riley determined that Brock had surpassed ealey on the roster & was ready to play in 1975. The Bombers traded Ealey to the Argos in 1975 & made Brock the starter. For the next nine seasons, we had a qb who could set the air on fire throwing zingers to his receivers all over the field. The kid was ready & he became one of the CFL's greats but it took a year. What a difference that year made in this case.

That is one of the worst commercials ever. It's not even cute

Yeah, the rook looks great until he has to actually play. Don't rush the kid. At least let him settle in & learn from Zach & Condell. If he has what it takes, we'll find out soon enough. Throwing him to the wolves as a rookie would be a huge mistake. He's at least a year away from being a realistic starter.

Bruce deserved more. That's an insult. But it's the best he's going to get.

He'll have to learn to play on Specials to really help us. I doubt if he ever has as he was a qb. I wish we'd sign experienced young Canadian receivers in February insead of inexperienced kids in May who have already been cut once & are changing positions that can't even play on kick or punt return.

It's an exhibition game for crissakes. Losing/winning means nothing.

We just lost JSK for the season. This is only the second week of TC. No team stays healthy after 2 pre season, 18 regular games, playoffs & GC. It's all about attrition. Injuries seems to have a lot to do with luck, it seems. Some teams just go on a run of bad luck. If a team gets lucky & stays relatively healthy then they have a shot to win a championship.

I'm willing to give all the changes a chance to see how it works out.

The Bomber medical staff & Osh cooked him last season.

650000 in the US is terrible. That's like 65000 watching the CFL in Canada. The only reason they average 15000 a game is because St Louis pads the attendance average & even then, the Battlehawks are drawing significantly less than in years before as are the Washington Defenders. As far as the NHL goes, most markets are averaging 90% capacity at home for attendance. The UFL is failing badly. Just one guy is keeping that going. The owner Steve Repole who thinks operating a league fron a central location is better than individual owners, coaches & scouting. Yeah, it's working out great so far, isn't it?

Yeah, no idea when games are televised. The UFL is a hot mess. If Johnson has a vision of merging with this zombie blood sucking money league, that'll be the end of the CFL. Pro football will cease to exist in Canada.

Just like communism, having a league run like it's a central committee in Moscow with no team GM's or scouting positions... everything run out of one head office ... one guy making all the decisions just does not work. The teams can't respond to unique local needs of the fans. It's no wonder the UFL is struggling. There's no connection to any local markets.

Jack Coan won't win them a lot of games if Harris goes down with serious injury.

I am hopeful that the billionaire who owns the league calls it a day. I thought it was bad up here in the CFL from week to week but the UFL has taken attendance futility down to another level. And the UFL is announcing expansion teams??? Lol.

We never learn from past mistakes. From playing up to 10 Canadian starters for no reason other than to get an extra second round pick to signing older veteran free agent players, these were the criticisms of Walters & Osh before. Nothing's really changed other than someone setting Walter's alarm this season so he didn't sleep thru free agency on Day 1 . Of course, we knew these criticisms last year when their contracts were expiring.

Well, since we'll be going to a 10 game schedule after we merge with the UFL we'll have training camps in Florida in February. At least attendance will match up.

CFL attendance not much better than the UFL.

Achilles, perhaps? JSK played in the CFL for over a decade. Why can't we go after younger free agents? We ran into the same problem when we signed thirty plus receivers. Most of them were busts here because of injuries. What a waste of free agent resources.

Should the Bombers look at expanding PAS to 40000? To take advantage of their popularity?

Just gonna say this... I was considering removing my last post but decided to stand by it. I have a feeling I may have earned a trip to the Principal's Office. I just want to say to all of you who take the time to go to Bomber training camp or practices & then come here to give us your thoughts & observations, thank you. You are appreciated. For those of us who live out of town or can't make practices due to work committments, your opinions are great. Without your comments, we'd know very little. Just what the Bombers want us to know through social media. It's great to read what you see. So, keep it up.

That's Mike's way of saying all of you who do these reports we read suck without him saying it. He's the only one here who has the knowledge to do them. Another Mike Drive By smear. And the guy's a mod? He'll crawl back under his rock & emerge again in a week or so doing the same **** picking on some random member here that doesn't like.
