TBURGESS

I watched it a couple of times. Not for me. Just the same thing over and over. Give me 10 minutes of PLAP explaining something once a week instead.

As one of the 60+ members...

Actually, a Tik Tok campaign is more likely to reach the intended audience than a radio campaign.

You'd rather have a 600K cap hit over 490K?

It would be Collaros at a cap amount of $600K.

https://www.inoreader.com/article/3a9c6e77d68f218e-qb1-money-cfls-highest-paid-quarterbacks-for-the-2025-season 1) Nathan Rourke, B.C. Lions (N) Hard money: $624,200 Maximum value: $624,200 The 26-year-old blew up the CFL QB market when he signed back with B.C. last August. At the time, Rourke inked a three-year pact for $749,200 in hard money in 2025, including $200,000 in marketing money, which does not count against the league’s salary cap. That structure from late last summer would have lowered his salary cap hit to $549,200 in 2025. After reworking his deal, he’s scheduled to earn $624,200 in hard money with $200,000 in marketing. Rourke’s salary cap number for this season checks in at $424,200. 2) Chad Kelly, Toronto Argonauts (A) Hard money: $615,000 Maximum value: $615,000 The 31-year-old quietly reworked his contract for 2025 this offseason. He received a $250,000 signing bonus and his deal includes $125,000 in marketing money. That lowers Kelly’s salary cap hit to $490,000 this year. 3) Zach Collaros, Winnipeg Blue Bombers (A) Hard money: $600,000 Maximum value: $600,000 The 36-year-old collected a $100,000 offseason roster bonus on January 15. He has a $500,000 base salary with $250,000 guaranteed. Collaros enters 2025 in the final season of his three-year contract signed in October 2022.

The best Cinnamon buns in Winnipeg were Nelda's. We will never see their like again.

I'll do the job for $75K plus travel expenses. I doubt I could do a worse job than scarf boy.

I'd take Rourke. Huge possible upside for a single draft pick. I doubt he ends up in the NFL for more than a couple of years if that.

Overpay - When other teams offer more than we do. Market Value - When we pay players the most for their position in the league.

Meh. I expected it, but was hoping we wouldn't sign him.

You really think that teams aren't talking to him or his agent?

Every team got the same amount of money. If we up the offer on Kenny, they up the offer too. Dumb way of doing business.

Quick wrap up so far: Winnipeg Blue Bombers Acquired: LB Jonathan Jones (A), REC Dillon Mitchell (A), DL James Vaughters (A) Agreed to terms: REC Gavin Cobb (N), DB Josh Hagerty (N) Released or agreed to terms elsewhere: OL Liam Dobson (N), DB Tyrell Ford (N), DL TyJuan Garbutt (A), Celestin Haba (A), REC Kenny Lawler (A), REC Drew Wolitarsky (N) The Blue Bombers got a headstart on free agency by scooping up three players who had been released elsewhere — Jones, Mitchell, and Vaughters, all of whom could be starters come Week 1. Cobb and Hagerty are nice Canadian depth pieces, though it’s hard to overlook how much talent has left Bomberland. Lawler is arguably the league’s best receiver, while Ford and Dobson are high-level Canadian starters.

We MIGHT have upgraded our D line, but everything else looks like they're going to downgrades to me.

Linux/Windows/Android, Brave, Brave Search for me. That being said, giving money to T-Rump is supporting a Nazi, which isn't the same thing as being a Nazi. Musk is a both a Nazi & a white supremacist.

I don't see anything on X because I got rid of it when it was bought by Elon F'n Musk. X is run by a Nazi for Nazi's & MAGA's. If you're still there, you are supporting them even if you don't agree with them. I'm certain you can find video games and cat memes elsewhere. I moved to Bluesky. I'd like it if all sports teams, government agencies, celebs (Sad but true), & businesses would move too.

The only folks left on X are Nazi's, Proud Boys & White Supremacists. Facebook is for old people who don't know how to change to Reddit & who think everything they read is true.

Dillon Mitchell is making a bunch more than Wilson, who he replaced on the roster. Likely more than the $20K we'd save by replacing Wolo with a rookie. We still have some receiver dollars to trim.

Whose job it is, isn't the issue. They, the Bombers, should have call Biggie to let him know for sure that he was no longer in their plans.

I think they should have called Biggie and let him know. That's the professional thing to do. I'm glad they made the right decision tho.

Jake? Yuk!

Without Collaros, we don't even make it to the first GC that we won.

Welcome back to the walking wounded I guess.
