Apparently Keon Hatcher managed to find time in his schedule today to go to practice and found out about Kongbo's burn on them. I'm not a twitter guy but he zinged Kongbo right back. https://twitter.com/king_kongbo/status/1665770554362585089?s=61&t=baW2TXp0bnUmTIpSkeJyzA Apparently it has been removed.

I think they have a good OL that benefits from a heavy dink and dunk bias in their offence. Jake Maier is the king of the 5 yard pass.

Mistyped it... sorry folks. You win the internet today....lol LOL....alright. I liked your predictions overall so I regret splitting hairs. I'm confused is the RIders win total this season 0 or 00? I know we can only have one now.

Anyone wondering about Bighill's conditioning has obviously never seen this man work out. His cardio regimen would leave most triathletes gasping for air. Nothing like locker rooms and sweaty socks and shoes to turn an ingrown into a bad infection. Sounds silly but yea....if he had to have some of his toenail removed you gotta wait a bit to make sure it doesn't get an infection.

Rider players aren't liking all this lack of professionalism talk about the Lions and said "hold my beer".

Geez Louise, be hard to fit all that in one halftime. Would have to be a series.

I think the Leo's do this quite a bit. Every year they seem to cut an offseason big signing.

For sure. I was just wondering if Kongbo was released to try NFL after XFL and that's why he was available? I realize he has been through the NFL wringer a few times now. If you ask me, the BC Lions signed him to way too high a contract to make sure we didn't get him and had no real intentions of keeping him. Then traded him for whatever scraps they could get. Kongbo fetching only a 4th round pick screams bad contract to me.

Sure that's true in a perfect world. However, football is a game where very few teams get that luxury. Whether a guy comes in TC or mid season, really doesn't effect team chemistry at all as long as he comes in with the right attitude. Cohesion....well cohesion is going to be disrupted anytime you need to replace an injured starter.

Yes that's true. Did Kongbo get released to try NFL? Haven't been keeping up with him since he left.

I get your concerns IF the roster was frozen and this is who we got for the year, but a hundred guys just got cut around the league and only 70% of the players in the league last year were re-signed in the offseason. There are players, experienced players, that can be added at pretty much every position if we need to do so. I'm really not seeing the problem I guess. I have total faith that Walters has a list of replacements ready for every position from both our roster/PR and from the current CFL FA and cut down lists not to mention our own recruiting that never stops.

Roster management sometimes about how easy it is to pick up the phone and get someone who isn't currently on our roster. Bighill goes down...Sankey is out there....if BO goes down, no one has picked up Salima. I get that on the outside it looks odd, but Walters is likely looking at overall talent and the ability to add more easily in a pinch. Is it easier to find an import OT or an import LBer in a pinch or easier to find a decent RB if BO goes down...I think we know the answer to that. DE looks thin, but Lemon, S. Banks, or McAlister are a phone call away. It's not panic time for us because not every I is dotted or every T is crossed before week 1. Who knows maybe there are some guys we are waiting on for them to come here that the Bombers think are studs.

The XFL, while not having any official provision for it, has said all along they would release any player if they wanted to go to the CFL.

I trust KW to make the moves necessary to win. He has shown us time and time again that he can do so. We have watched him make so many in season pivots at key positions, when injuries have hit, with fantastic results that I just don't worry about that anymore. Some vets will need to be replaced via trade for immediate impact. There is no recruitment we could have done that would replace a Bighill if he gets hurt this year. The only viable option is a vet in this circumstance. I get everyone's concern about succession planning, but we are in win now mode and that doesn't leave a ton of roster space. We have a window and the Bombers have chosen to seize their best opportunity to win while in that window. Will it mean a bigger rebuild later....maybe years ago...but not in the age of one year contracts. We will reload. If Bighill gets hurt....Sankey is out there doing diddly squat right now.

Winnipeg 14-4 Calgary 10-8 Edmonton 9-9 BC 7-11 Sask 7-11 Hamilton 10-8 Toronto 10-8 Ottawa 8-10 Montreal 6-12

Wins and losses each need to total 81. Wins and losses must be equal and each tie takes one of each away.

It might be concerning, however, we haven't even seen him play yet. Also, a lot of people are forgetting that this time of year PRs are not really settled. Walters and every other GM will be going over every other teams cuts to look at guys that may be worth looking at here. It's how we got Lawler originally.

I'm not surprised by Leggs cut at all. Once we signed Castillo I thought the writing was on the wall because he is an average at best punter.

Injuries ravaged our team last year, and we went 15-3. Actually, I'm going to say 15-2 because we played an exhibition games at the end the year. I get that people are worried...but I think people are overstating it a bit. We are easily the most talented team in the West, we are easily the best coached, and we are still the deepest. Much concern about nothing. Our aging vets are still the class of the league. Injuries are part of football and no team is better prepared for them than us.

There certainly is a bunch of liars in Ottawa...soon they will no longer govern

For reporting the results of a Leger poll, one of the most credible polling firms in Canada? 72% of the country disagrees with you.

No doubt. Don't take it personally this guy just attacks any poster who disagrees with him. Needs to get laid methinks.

How does today's news prove me wrong? Totally different player and scenario.

The political landscape is becoming so polarized that people will wilfully ignore the corruption of the party they favor and blindly vote for them again. It's sad.

You do you...but you will never convince me for even 5 seconds that you weren't voting JT. Nice attempt at reverse psyche tho. Didn't work...but nice try. Further to this I have no issues with a lot of the Liberal policies. I voted Chretien, Martin and really liked their governments. What I don't like is any incarnation of Liberal leadership after that and Trudeau's aversion to honesty and transparency. It makes a Mockery of democracy. If you can see past that well that's up to you. I'm not here to convince anyone to change their convictions. I just won't reward corruption by voting for it.
