Some news on CFL players trying out for the Bengals: https://bengalswire.usatoday.com/2018/12/28/bengals-hosted-cfl-players-tryouts/

Ed Tait suggested that we should follow the FCS final between Eastern Washington and Maine to see how this guy (who's on our neg list) does: Early in the third qtr, Eastern Washington leads Maine by 35 to 5. Barriere's stats: 18-24, 254 YDS, 5 TD, 1 INT. Impressive. Here's a link to ESPN's site: http://www.espn.com/college-football/matchup?gameId=401102914

Andrew Harris is keeping busy: https://www.bardown.com/puck-tales-how-cfl-star-andrew-harris-became-a-beer-league-hockey-ringer-1.1225503

Hmm, https://www.bluebombers.com/2018/12/12/bomber-reveal-10-neg-list-players/ Looks like we should be paying attention to the 10 guys they revealed today.

Re Murphy's exit; I agree.

I have to agree with you. After Googling I could find no further reference to this story.

We need to know more about this:

The T-shirts have arrived: The black ones are $30 and the blue ones are $20.

Only a matter of time.

That's Carol Barrott, the Bombers Ticketing and Fan Services Manager. No way she made those t-shirts.

There should be an option to "Totally agree".

Not to forget George "the Fossil" Blanda, the oldest guy to play professional football until Bob Cameron broke his record.

Saw this on Twitter yesterday: I'm willing to be patient for at least another year.

Ed Tait reports that both Thompkins and Santos-Knox have been moved to the 1 game injured list: https://www.bluebombers.com/2018/11/17/game-preview-west-final/

Gauthier's in too. I hope he's in top form. Before he got injured he was on pace to break the record for special teams tackles and we didn't look so good last week in that area.

Don't know why but the Stamps just tweeted some pictures from the 1965 Western Conference finals. Not only did we win that 3 game series but also there was one very notable play: Kenny Ploen passes to Ken Nielsen for a 109 yd TD, the longest pass reception in CFL playoff history.

Well you know what they say: "If you can remember the 60's, you weren't there." 😉

I'm glad this guy is in:

I'm beginning to get REALLY excited.

Never mind, I see it's just about the Bombers/Riders series.
