Fatty Liver

Numerous players that left have indicated the Bombers failed to touch base with them, communication is key to negotiations, keeping channels open never hurts.

In the interview below Kenny says he planned to stay in Wpg, but suggests the Bombers came late to the party with their bid. Not that they were ever going to match the figure Goveia offered him, but they continuously come away from these contract negotiations looking unmotivated or disorganized. I think it's time for a refresh of the support staff below the 3 Amigos, they're falling behind in a number of categories and are beginning to take on the yellowish tinge of Eaton's bargain basement. For those too young to remember, imagine a table heaped high with unpackaged men's underwear in a jumble, 99 cents a piece!

Bennett went down with a season ending injury in Bomber TC last season and spent the year rehabbing. O'Shea said he would welcome him back once recovered but it looks like he changed his mind.

And from that rotten tree, the Bombers decide to pluck Shea Patterson.

Holm improved his tackling last season and looks to have put on a fair bit of muscle, in his first season starting he was more likely to wrap his arms around the ball carrier and hold on till assistance arrived.

More surprising story. Edmonton Elks make Robbie Smith CFL’s highest-paid defensive player General manager Ed Hervey paid Smith $270,000 in hard money with a $276,000 maximum. https://3downnation.com/2025/02/17/edmonton-elks-make-robbie-smith-cfls-highest-paid-defensive-player/

Disagree about Unamba but, you're right about Peach, the guy I was thinking about was Glenn January a 3 time Eastern All star, but that's stretching way back to 2009–15 when he held down LT for the Bombers.

There were plenty of great players in Wpg. that just missed out on the 2019 GC win, most brought into the league by the Bombers. Easy to forget them now as their career timing was bad, but many of them could make the team today if they showed up in their prime. Partial list drawn from faltering memory. Mo Leggett, Taylor Loffler, JSK, Ian Wild, Khalil Bass, Westerman, Chris Randle, Greg Peach, Mathias Goosen, Bryant Turner., Clarence Denmark, and Dangerous Don Unamba!

Ellingson played well during his one year in Wpg and had great chemistry with Zach, if not for a season ending injury he likely goes over 1,000 yds. It was also the same year Schoen led the league as a rookie. 2022 WPG 8 50 38 598 109 3 15.7 46 Same could be said for Dressler, only a Bomber for 2 seasons but in that time he was a valuable part of the offence.

They need rotation for Vaughters, shouldn't expect him to play the whole game like Willy and Jake do.

"Never read the comments below" is a sound motto to follow, doing so may lead to brain damage and a loss of faith in humanity.

You could be right, the Riders might have been out of their depth against a motivated Bomber team at home, but it sure looks like there was a whole lot of confusion in that secondary on Lawler's 3 TD's. That falls on the DC, screwups like that shouldn't still be happening so late in the season. This was a great goodbye Wpg. present from Lawler.

Walters presser this afternoon, answers a lot of questions.

I still think the WF against the Riders was a bit of an anomaly, explain how a team gets to the WF and is still so incapable of coordination they commit 3 broken coverage errors allowing Kenny Lawler (of all players) to sneak behind them for uncontested TD's. The game turned into a cakewalk, which may have led to over confidence in the potency of their passing attack against the Argos.

Nothing wrong with DesLauriers resume, he's only 43, he played 9 years with the Als and spent the last 8 years working in their front office. Deslauriers retired as a player in February 2016 but stayed with the Alouettes as a football operations assistant and scout.[1] He was named as the team's Player Personnel Coordinator on July 18, 2019 shortly after the dismissal of the team's general manager, Kavis Reed.[2] He was promoted to Director of Football Operations after the 2019 Montreal Alouettes season on December 18, 2019.[3]

A RB can't carry a team in a high scoring contest, without decent passing attack they'll never keep pace with a team that can move the ball and score quickly through the air.

Doubt it, they wouldn't have made the playoffs without him the past 4 seasons.

Reads like a quote Hufnagel might have made around 6 years ago when the Bombers were rising.

You never want to get into a disagreement with a Greek, once they're done yelling they start crying and throwing dishes around.

$230k, I believe that matches Brady's salary and is aprox. $80k more than Dequoy at $150k. Crazy.

Must be returning to existing ties and opportunities in Edm., probably a lot of career opportunities available for players who choose to live in Edm. and make it their home after football.

Technically he has been more active this year, because he didn't even answer his phone during the previous two FA periods.

Maybe Wilson, but he has a lot to prove and very little time to do it. If not they make a trade in the off-season or pick up someone like Fajardo on the rebound,

Sorry disagree, I think all 4 Western opponents have improved their rosters to some degree, depending on QB health BC and Sask. could challenge for first.
