I'm sure Ambles is wondering that too. You bring in a veteran receiver as a back-up in case of injuries and then don't use him when that exact scenario plays out. What was the point of signing him? BOLO is also a pending FA. Unless he was also banged up, what does that say about his future with the club? It doesn't exactly send a vote of confidence that he can't get a single ball thrown his way, despite how depleted the receiving core was.

It's the only thing that they do well.

The Trinity just needed to have a little sit down with him and work things out...

Not for me! I had been regretting picking up tickets for this game (still might post-game 😂) but I'm relieved to see the Oilers have been playing much better the last few games.

Survivor Series was in Punk's hometown so that was the best place for him to return, plus the longer they waited, the more likely the news would have leaked. If they were going to hold off on a return, Orton would have been the one to wait.

Thread title: 2023/2024 CFL (Non Bombers) Off Season News. Lots of talk about it in this and other threads.

2 year deal for Walters, no details available for McManus or Goveia. Formal announcement from the club expected later today. https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews/2023/11/28/bombers-gm-walters-assistants-have-new-deals

So when Lalji and Naylor (of all people) say it, you take as gospel but when other, more locally in touch media report on it, you take a wait and see approach?

Getting ranked 3rd overall is pretty impressive considering they has us at 422th (out of 439) for climate. We must have done really well in the other categories!

At least Bilbo came home with a ring! 😂

Jackson 😂

I have no doubt we were banged up at receiver but we had guys we could have used instead. Did BOLO even see the field? Ambles was brought in for this exact scenario and wasn't dressed. Grant started the game at receiver but I didn't notice him there after that. The options were there and we chose not to use them. The decision to let these all these guys play in their condition was a failure of the coaching staff and the players themselves.

I believe so. A bunch of highly rated prospects deferred their draft year to this year, iirc. **Found the article** https://3downnation.com/2023/03/22/personnel-people-confused-by-top-canadian-prospects-deferring-to-2024-cfl-draft/

*Finds @JCon way down in the Pick EM standings* He'll fit right in with the rest of the media! 😂

The lack of Kolankowski love is an outrage - John Hodge (probably).

Yup, I always open the image itself in a new tab so I can copy that info rather than user a site-generated link. Some files aren't actually GIFs either, they could be webp files or some other animated image, and that can also be an issue for the site. I try to stick to images in actual gif format.

I post gifs from an android phone all the time - Samsung or Pixel but you don't have to use that box. Just paste the link in the with the rest of your text. I have noticed is that sometimes when I paste the link, I have to hit enter (like to create a new paragraph) or the page won't recognize the text as a link. A little message will pop up saying your link has automatically been embedded and the gif will show up.

I wish the playoffs were included in the voting. The MODP and MOP were absolute no-shows when it mattered.

Yep, at least one. Last month, we gave Edmonton their first return TD in almost a decade.

He's probably still down money but he's already making some of it back in playoff bonuses. Wouldn't have gotten an extra cent if he had signed with the Riders.

I wonder if it's too late to fly Fajardo's BFF out to Hamilton?

Hodge now has an article up on the 3DN blog. https://3downnation.com/2023/11/15/kyle-walters-wants-to-be-back-as-gm-of-winnipeg-blue-bombers-expects-clarity-very-quickly/

Flag on the play last I checked! 😂

This will be my contribution to the GC party I'm going to: https://www.thechunkychef.com/spicy-brown-sugar-bacon-wrapped-little-smokies/
