I doubt if Petermann will be cut. Simonise could be but more likely a PR spot..

Leadership from the punting position... Interesting.

As a player he didn't have to worry about it. Old habits die hard.

Who said that? Accuracy can be taught.

I know. After months of winter, April snowstorms & now we can't enjoy spring.

Calgary: Smoke from forest fires in Northern Alberta this morning. If air quality does not improve during the day the Stamps-Riders game this evening may be postponed. Gotta say, the air quality sucks. Some people are really struggling to breathe.

What is wrong with the guy? Don't forget Hervey is the player who took off his helmet & swung it at a Stamps players back in the mid 2000's during a Labour Day game.

As opposed to the toothless mob next province west?

Even I started at 1 post.

With just 4 players someone really, really good will be left out.

Sad & tragic case.

So Mark, what do you think? More or less threads? Mega thread or individual threads?

If I win lottery this will be my ride. Yes, I can dream.

Thanks for the kind words & props, TB4. I appreciate it. The Bombers are my passion & I love the historical factor of the team. I find it so interesting. When I saw your project last December I knew it was going to be a great off season.

We'll need another thread to discuss.

One thing I will say that both guys wouldn't have been satisfied to play together at qb for a decade. One would have eventually left. It worked out well for Ploen & the Bombers.

Jim Van Pelt was drafted into the US military in 1960. Spent a 3 year hitch in the Air Force. When he got out the Bombers tried to re-sign him. He & his wife were the Bombers special guests at the 1962 Grey Cup in Toronto. Ultimately Van Pelt decided to turn down the Bomber contract offer & went into private business in Chicago. In 1959, Van Pelt separated his shoulder in the Western Final series & it was Ken Ploen who quarterbacked the Bombers to their Grey Cup win in 1959. Looking at the records though, he certainly was a great qb when he played. I agree that he should have been on the list & was a major oversight by all of us.

Bart Starr legendary Packer quarterback passed away today at age 85. He won 5 NFL championships including back to back to back in 65, 66 & 67 & the first two Super Bowls. He was 85. He had suffered a stroke in 2014 & had been in failing health ever since. RIP Bart.

So, with the season about to start maybe it's time to reopen the debate. Of course, we'll need a separate thread for that.

So, we're still alive.

There's a rebellion going on.

My wife is an RN as well so I'm in good hands.

Our friend has one & she's lending it to me.

This topic was discussed in earnest here as I recall & the general consensus was to go with two main threads in the off season as well as another two during the regular season Bomber & CFL News to keep the site from becoming cluttered. That is how members wanted it. There have been very few complaints until now. In order to change it, there would have to be some kind of a want or need to do it.
