  1. Chris Chelios is supposedly in there somewhere, but I couldn't spot him. Maybe he's the dude with the wild hair and beard at the end of the bar at 1:15? Would have been hilarious if he was the "bride" in the gay marriage.
  2. Derek Dennis from the Stamps is available if he makes it to free agency. He won the Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman award in 2016 so he is well worth pursuing.
  3. Glenn isn't stupid, he knows Sask. needs him and from talking with Nichols I'm sure he's aware Jones will be yanking his chain all season long.
  4. In that case you're certainly right, the American people are clueless and devour their government's propaganda with a big red, white and blue spoon.
  5. You nailed it, it's not so much what the management thinks of a certain player, but more what the locker room thinks of him as they are the ones that have to deal with the guy on a daily basis. They certainly don't want a giant ass among them.
  6. Clueless would imply that they don't know what they're doing, which would be far from the truth. Just watched a documentary on the Marshall Islands where the US military used native islanders as guinea pigs to test the results of exposure to radiation after dropping 54 atomic bombs on Bikini Atoll, the biggest being 1,000 times the force of the Hiroshima explosion. Not surprisingly the results were predictable as the US government had been testing the effects of radiation on animals for many years prior and knew precisely the fate of these people. This article summarizes well. http://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/national/2015/11/27/a-ground-zero-forgotten/
  7. Why Carter would even play for $130,000, doesn't make sense. He'd be better taking a year off to fix his attitude and chase NFL dreams.
  8. The thought makes me shiver....but what does it take to keep a guy like that happy, Director of the JR. Glee Club?
  9. Good article on how the Internet has increased divisiveness and tribalism. http://www.cbc.ca/news/opinion/new-tribalism-1.3948289
  10. If both Barker and Milanovich are gone, Willy is in the cross-hairs. I predict he sustains his career by becoming a QB hobo ala Glenn. He might even end up back in Sask. before too long.
  11. Between Dressler and Smith they missed 11 games, they'll be opportunities for Clarence if they can keep him around.
  12. The Argos should have dumped their entire wheel-barrow the day after the G.C.
  13. Popp left such a mess in his wake that he doesn't deserve another crack until Sask. comes calling in a year's time.
  14. You forgot Crompton, he could be in the mix if healthy.
  15. They let Mayo walk and pick up Lankford??? If they MUST pick up Rider fodder wait for Holley or Collins to spring loose.
  16. Good interview with Westerman on CFL.ca http://www.cfl.ca/2017/01/19/off-seasonon-record-jamaal-westerman/
  17. Bullsh*t, I was forced to take 2 levels of it in College, and I hated that ****.
  18. Lefevour, Cato or Crompton might move to the RB's to replace Burris. Not sure they'd rely on Jensen as a backup just yet.
  19. Careful what you wish for, Bass may not return and the next best candidate is Kyle "MR. ST" Knox. I think expectations on the MLB position are a tad unrealistic in these parts. Like Wild, Bass plays the game at a very high level and can not be accused of being a non-factor in any game the Bombers played this past season, he was literally all over the field. He contributed a decent number of sacks, interceptions, forced fumbles and was 8th in the league in tackles as well as being a solid contributor on ST's. Does he occasionally get steam-rolled in a "Hurlish" fashion? Yes, as would any 220 lber trying to fight off a 300 lb. lineman intent on blotting out the sun. Imo Bass does exceptionally well in the role he is given within Hall's D, which is a jack-of-all-trades, they may be able to find a better MLB in time, but I wouldn't bet money on it happening quickly.
  20. Leggett is the best dime back in the league but I think McDuffie is pretty much untouchable when it comes to flat out speed on the team.
  21. He's already been punted once, but being a wily Riderfan he's managed to rearrange the spelling of his name around "klutz" to cleverly fool our administrators.
  22. The most you can realistically hope for from a backup QB is to maintain 500. If he plays behind a good O-line, within a good offensive scheme and has great offensive weapons at his disposal this becomes a whole lot more viable. If BLM played for the Bombers in 2013 he would have been packed on the next bus out of town following Max Hall, never to be heard from again.
  23. http://www.cfl.ca/2017/01/19/cfl-cas-top-30-pending-free-agents/ The top 30 free agents according to cfl.ca, it would be nice to retain both Bass and McDuffie and steal away Marquay McDaniel and Shakir Bell.
  24. Quarterback Wins with Bombers since 2009 Buck Pierce 14 Matt Nichols 12 Drew Willy 11 Michael Bishop 6 Joey Elliott 2 Alex Brink 2 Justin Goltz 1 Max Hall 1 Stefan LeFors 1
  25. Looking forward to the day the Bombers show enough confidence in their own scouting, recruitment and development to run with their own horses. I'm fine with Davis at number two, McLeod Bethel-Thompson at number three or even picking Bryan Bennett back up on the rebound after Jones slips him the shiv during TC. The Stamps didn't get where they are today by relying on F.A. and table scraps left behind by other teams. For the most part they've recruited and developed their personnel from within and have been remarkably successful for over a decade. Hopefully the Bombers can someday follow this model and attain the same consistency as the Stamps.
