TrueBlue

You're being too kind. The turf was awful. Think of the same type of material that driving ranges use in their tee boxes. No underlay, no crumb rubber. It was rough.

For those who went this weekend, please share your thoughts. What was good, not so good, etc.

Not as far as I'm aware. There were meetings a couple of weeks ago.

Here's a preview of what to expect. Hope to see many of you guys out there. https://www.bluebombers.com/2018/03/19/marks-cfl-week-preview/

They'll be laying down field turf.

Only if you bring enough for everyone.

Hearing from people who have talked directly to JW since the signing, this was ultimately the biggest and most deciding factor for him.

If only it was that easy.

Why?

Likely not. Even if we were looking, which we aren't, no one outside of a few people in the Ticats organization even knew he was interested in coming back to the CFL.

I always knew you were a leg man.

The majority here had spoken. Nothing anyone can do now.
