It’s one thing to retire and do it in the fashion he did but to publically denigrate the organization that gave him an opportunity to extend his playing career and, by all accounts, supported him as he mulled over retirement options with his family .. that’s just something else. What a piece of work. I’m not one to believe in any ‘sinister plan’ but the way he’s carrying himself right now really does make a person think that he never intended to honor his contract and all he was in this for was the quick pay day.

If that is how the Bombers heard about the retirement, through Social Media, then I think even less of the guy. What a **** move.

This is funny but I was just thinking the other day when I read the 'battles to watch in camp' string of posts that I wouldn't be surprised to see Durant get beat out and that he might not be the #2 (or, better put, deserve to be the #2). Shitty timing on the whole thing and leaves a bit of a hole on the roster now.

Just say NO to thread necro. /end

Last post in this thread was 6 months ago before today? I’d say it’s stale. /end

Don’t mind a little back and forth but I’d rather this stay on hockey and not individual posters. Thanks all.

How would you police that with offensive and defensive linemen? Those collisions happen on virtually every play.

How someone could be upset or annoyed by Muamba taking his time and doing what's best for him is beyond me. It's really not something worth expending any energy over.

Thread necro. /fin

Guys, I understand that discussing politics can often be a heated and divisive subject but I would ask that you treat one another with respect and attempt to further the conversation rather than 'attack' individual posters (or insult those who may not agree with your particular view). If you can't discuss the topic without resorting to name calling or other base dialogue, perhaps this topic isn't for you.

Volume on the Walters FA presser is terrible.

If I could dust off my Muamba jersey, I’d be a happy guy.

They better be loading up on defense because that unit is going to be on the field an awful lot this year.

I'd be excited for some defense .... any time now.

Happy about the Demski signing but, to me, this underscores the need for some sort of restricted free agency in the CFL. It's a bitter pill to swallow for any team to "lose" a draft pick after spending that rookie contract developing the player.

I think that's what the torch is for.

Doing the 'Drive to 55' bump.

Guys .. stop the petty back and forth. I'll ask nicely just once.

I’m not a professional athlete and don’t have near the same resources at my disposal but returned to Olympic Lifting (and was near 100%) 10 week’s after a full Achilles rupture (surgery included). Every case is obviously different (and I certainly healed quickly) but it’s not the career ending injury it used to be.

Hey guys. Lots of discussion RE: Wilder going on in the offseason thread. Let's take it there (mega thread or not) ..

This. It doesn't take a massive blow to rattle your brain around in it's bucket and cause long term damage.
