He was the 5th ranked OL in his draft year... just because he didn't pan out, it doesn't mean it was a bad pick.

That was what I was wondering. I read an interview he did in Feb where he said he wasn't in a rush to make a decisions but that he would be ready to go in May. Well it's June now and he still hasn't signed so what's the hold-up? https://www.therecord.com/sports-story/9175096-cfl-players-have-high-hopes-for-kitchener-football-camp/

Not necessarily. Chris Ackie is still out there as a free agent and he's said all 9 teams have been in contact with him.

Lolly also said that the 1st pre-season game was the least you would see them blitz all year (and they still did quite a bit in that game) so its not as if this was going to be a surprise for the Bombers.

I dont think the Riders were informed of this because they certainly didn't show up to play!

Maybe, maybe not. It didn't seem to matter though. To get that kind of number without TV says there is an audience there. If they can build their brand and establish some of the more unknown guys as stars, they will be just fine.

98k is the early estimate from Meltzer: “Double or Nothing is currently estimated at doing roughly 98,000 buys between television and digital PPV, with close to a 50/50 split between the two,”

Man-made hills... usually found in the driveways of their kickers.

St Boniface Hospital is run by the Catholic Healthcare Corporation of Manitoba, not the WRHA. They usually go along with what the province wants but not always (see MAID) so it's a bit complicated. The Grace Hospital used to be in a similar situation until about 10 years ago (the Salvation Army transferred ownership to the WRHA in 2008).

That assumes that all positions impact client care. I was speaking from personal experience where I once had a job within the WRHA where I reported to 3 managers and a supervisor (that does not include upper management) which, to me, was overkill . It was incredibly inconsistent and frustrating to get stuff dealt with as the buck would get passed between the group so you never knew who was dealing with what issue. Getting a simple answer was next to i My old co-workers tell me it's down to one manager now and things are running much more efficiently. It was a non-clinical department so there was no impact to client care either way.

CB4 makes sense because the stuff with Stafford makes him look like a clown but he did grow up in Compton and I don't think that mentality has ever fully left him. http://www.calgaryherald.com/sports/hall+esks+hervey+candidly+relives+struggles+escaping+gang+plagued+compton/8850914/story.html

Just keeping it real since he is:

Could have happened to Jake last year too when he wasn't re-signed in the off-season but that was a risk they were willing to take.

If he doesn't make the club out of camp, it wouldn't be much different than last year when he wasn't re-signed in the office season. The club will tell him to keep his phone on & stay in shape so they can bring him back if needed.

Spoiler alert!!!

Maybe if this was the 1st time Hervey snubbed someone it could be written off as a joke but it's not. It's just typical behavior from him.

At the management level, absolutely! But that wasn't the point... the fact remains that the PC government has and continues to make cuts where you said they weren't.

The guy who says not a single person has been laid off is accusing someone else of making stuff up? I guess the 132 people (or vacant positions) that the WRHA got rid of in a single day doesn't count? https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/severance-wrha-1.4151130

Yep, he hit a 50+ yard fg last week and got a big cheer. Haven't heard anything else about him since though.

Goalie posted about it in the RIP thread.

The general forum does seem quieter these days with a couple posters missing. I assume the ban hammer finally came down (at least temporarily).

Can't wait for him to do this to Collaros (or whoever they use after he's hurt) a few times this year.

I was camping all weekend so I haven't had a chance to watch yet but I've heard good things. I expected Moxley to show up and wasn't disappointed. He signed a deal like Omega & Jericho where he can work other places. He's now off to NJPW (for the G1 maybe?) according to his twitter account.

I've tentatively got a road trip booked to watch the bombers play in Edmonton that weekend but if that falls through, I will go to this. I'm not a huge NFL fan but it is probably never going to happen here again so why not? Plus the money helps the club so I'm good with that too.
