Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news
SpeedFlex27 replied to WinnipegGordo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I don't know how much Kongbo played. He'd sure look good back in Bomber colours. Streveler can't throw. That's his big downfall. Has all the physical tools to be a great leader but he just can't make all the throws. Hence, he became a gimmicky qb. He can only find success with a limited playbook & plays designed to take advantage of his physical abilities. He'll never be a backup pushing the starter in the NFL or CFL. He got his NFL pension, though. Good for him. -

Someone else can quote Naylor as I don't want to. -
If it was me I'd have given it for free. No questions asked. No reward expected. Just to shake Randy's hand with him saying Thank You would be reward enough. Nope. some people expect a financial windfall which is why the world is in such sad shape.

This is getting so ******* tiring. If you have a twitter account, check Dave Naylor's tweets about this very subject. He said the Lions can rip up Rourke's rookie contract & re-sign him anytime they want. I could post it but I want you to find that tweet on your own. Why should I do the work for you? The CFLPA will be onboard with it. He said that no one ever thought a first year Canadian qb would ever tear up the CFL like Rourke did. There are ways to do this. But the 3 year rule in the CBA is typical small mind CFL & CFLPA thinking who both can never see the big picture. -

I do. I remember when Arndt played for BC & Ottawa. He was your typical CFL back up who struggled at times but then showed brief glimpses of glory. As a coach, I think he had a lot of potential to be an OC in this league someday. But he still has the bug to play. I wish the guy all the luck. My son blew out his hamstring in the off season at SFU training going into his senior year in 2015. He couldn't run. It never healed properly & still bothers him today. He needs surgery. But at 32, he can get it done whenever he wants so he's not in a hurry. He wanted to keep playing but was forced to stop. That injury cost him the chance to be the starter in 2015. In limited playing time he tossed just one TD pass. Not the way Tyler wanted to go out as a player. He had plans to go to Europe to play (maybe) in Germany but couldn't go with his injured eg. So good for Arndt, He's healthy & can still do it so why not? He controls his own destiny. If things don't work out as a player, in the XFL or USFL then maybe gettimg a job as a qb coach in the NCAA next year. Or going back to the CFL. -
Like the article stated, Putin was counting om Trumpers winning big in the mid terms but that didn't happen. Trump may never be President again. (We can only hope).

What I took from that article is that it's saying the Russians can't win the war. The hatred for the Russians goes back many centuries. From conquering Russian armies of the past to the Holdomor in 1932-33, the resolve of the Ukrainians is too great. My Uncle came from the Ukraine. He emigrated to Canada after World War 2 & married my aunt who was also Ukrainian but born & raised in Canada. I knew of this Ukrainian hatred of Russians back 50 years ago whenever he spoke about Russians with much contempt. I think had he owned a gun & knew a Russian was approaching him on the streets of Winnipeg back then he'd have shot him dead without any guilt, sorrow or misgivings. The Russian could be a total stranger. It didn't matter. His hatred was that strong. Now the war is fueling that same hatred to a new generation of Ukrainians. The question is, will NATO countries keep supplying the Ukraine with weapons to fight? The Ukrainians can't drive the Russians out without help from NATO countries. The support is crucial or the Bully wins.

Those aerial shots of Mosaic Stadium show just how small Regina is. Roads & railway lines go straight to the horizon & disappear seemingly to nowhere.

We've experienced the same thing. It seems when an appliance of ours failed it always was at the worst possible time. My wife & I are just going to sit down for our turkey dinner. Quiet Xmas this season with just us. Hopefully, we'll fly to Seattle next year for Xmas. I'd prefer to drive based on what is going on with stranded flyers & cancelled flights. However, then there's blizzards to deal with driving thru the mountains in BC & Washington.
