Stickem

Could anyone realistically say that we should let Castillo walk after the pre-season he had...NO way we cut him and have another club grab him in a nanosecond...Especially the green team to the west and the cats down east...I'm tired of seeing assets this club has garnered, walk and star with other teams..(ex. Paredes for one)...It's about time we held on to talent and if a deal comes along that we can't refuse...pull the trigger...As someone stated already, for now Castillo is good insurance, and we'll just have to find someway to work around the fact he is an international.

Class and Jones do not correlate....We are handling it the right way... a big departure from days gone by when we parted ways with some players in ...'let's just say'... a shoddy manner...

Why does getting a yard have to turn into a colossal event with this club...Cripes ...get this shored up O'Shea...It should be almost automatic when playing a yd. off the ball....Geez.

True....especially since we are taking our ace...Castillo lol....Man it's going to be hard to see this guy walk..

Wound up ....lol...Look,.. you questioned the quality of our receivers.....I answered but it appears you don't have the gumsion to recognize our talent which you have cast aspersions on...AND you don't have a qb....much as you like to say Durants the guy and everything is fine....Your qbs. I seen last night looked like crap and your starter hasn't played a meaningful game in 2 years and continues to sit ...Hmmmmm...don't worry about our receivers ...your worries should be with your own cub and receivers...Your lineup looks pretty thin from where I'm sitting.

....Ryan Smith for one ...should I go on....Denmark should be a star for you though in his mediocre way...Once you get someone who can stay healthy at qb. and actually look like one.

Power outage in Sask.....seems the Jones team had one as well...They looked like crap..Keeping their starting qb. in bubble wrap is a real laugher..If rider fans don't see Durant next game, the melon heads are going to start exploding....B.C. actually looked half-decent...except their uni's ....gawd awful...And the name plates on the riders jerseys looked like license plates gone wrong...Glad we looked great in our first outing, compared to that junk.

Yes....I am sort of a contradiction in terms..lol Of course I'm looking forward to the game...BUT I like it more when we are playing for 2 points and has some meaning...I couldn't ever not get excited about my favourite game...I know it means jobs for the young players, I just wished it had more meaning,,, Can't wait till kickoff time...There you go another small contradiction...LOL

Preseason tilts....a big meh....Nice to see it is televised though, so we can get a good look at the offseason recruits playing against someone other than themselves...A few I'll have my eye on ... Besides Loffler and Corney, will be the Def. end positions...I know Westerman is a lock but since Cole went down I want to get a good look at who is replacing him..It'll be a very interesting battle on who is going to be the returner for this club...Veltung, McDuffie, and Anderson competing for the gig is going to be very interesting...I'm predicting one of these guys is going to take it to the house or damn near tonight...Looking forward to some very competetive actcheeeon...

...They're spinning this one over there on riders forum so hard it's making everyone dizzy...Sane heads and commentary have gone missing and the covering for Jones is getting nauseating...Geez if Walters would've pulled this off with Chungh (of course they feel that WE drove the entry level for first round pics over the top when we signed him) Kyle would never of heard the end of it...St. John looks at the moment, like he's off to greener pastures and not rider Greenland...Looks good on them and their pathetic whining.

I'm going with the more experienced older guy...although Ryan is certainly catching up...Tough call...What I'm really glad about is that they both play for us, and I can't wait till we play the green guys.

I don't often date two....but when I do, I sometimes try to make it three...stay loose my friends...

Could care less about Henoc...He gave us the finger on his last royal rental tour and that was enough for me...After the way the club treated him (more than fair as far as I'm concerned)and he wouldn't even give us the time of day and signs with Poop and the poutine boys....See ya ..have a nice career somewhere else Henoc.

.....Luved the comment..(sorry can't remember who it was)..'This guy unleashed is gonna hurt some people'...Just look at him and his core strength and you can see the opposition will KNOW when Corney is on the field...I hope we locked him up for at least a couple of years..preferably longer.

Dyakowski sure pulled a good one on those rider frumps....LOL...Bit right into their ego's and they bit the big one...I laughed so hard I thought my pants would never dry...Embarrassed the heck out of them and I bet they won't forget that hosing for awhile...It's funny they didn't try to run a poll right after that phony interview to see if they were still legends in their own minds...Gotta luv it...This would have been a winner as the best fooler on April one...Winnipeg rated as no 2 should have sent the green guys over the edge and their fan base had to have gone ballistic ...Hey hey...good one Peter, I'm now a fan...at least till we play ya...

Anyone questioning Westermans ability and contribution to the Bombers obviously did not watch many Bomber games last year...The guy is a force...but what else could we expect from a rider fan...I think the take about Westerman being a 'loose cannon' is laughable...Riders would ****** this guy up in a moment...what a poor comment.

I thought that quote came from Chauncey Gardener in ' Being There'....I guess Peter Sellers could have been mistaken for H.R. Pufnstuf..In any event the winds of change will certainly be blowing for the Bombers at IGF..

Looks like this happy group got their guys and were elated it fell that way...How come so many things are going right so far this year??.. If it continues we might even see a huge jump in the standings....Holy Hannah you have to feel great so far this year as a Bomber fan...big thumbs up.

Geez....does that new uni ever look good....Especially the pic showing Dressler in his new colours...Gotta luv it...heh heh..

When Walters went with Loffler at 19 I was elated...This kid is going to be a CFL all star..IF he can stay healthy....All he does is make plays and is as tough as nails...I really liked the Couture and Corney pics and Loffler just put the icing on the cake...A lot of other solid pics in the latter rounds and I agree that Walters gets an A...Finally showing us his in depth knowledge of the college ranks..

Much like the riders who have a phobia about singing frogs, I would guess...Walters says Bilukudi might show up next year....with a big accent on the 'might'...Meanwhile I guess we'll all be singing a wishful merry tune all without holding our breath.

O line and Singleton is my guess...although I do like the trade Floyd mentioned...9 and 19 for Demski and Lauzon -Seguin...We would certainly be ahead of the game there but Jones would have to be in a very generous mood and the football gods would have to smile on us big-time.

Not to mention, Stegall and Lapo worked the tsn gig, and most likely had a lot of good natured run ins...Regarding Harris and James...I know they both are/were fantastic athletes..played both hockey and football, in James case NHL (leafs)...James was one of the youngest guys ever signed...could kick, catch and was a terrific back...Andrew has his work cut out for him matching James' career..Maybe Harris won't make the Jets but I know he's going to run wild on the opposition this year and get the Bombers into the playoffs. Optimism runs supreme.

Thanx for everything Hef...You were always a big hit with me.....and a great hitter who gave it all..

The nfl have greased Christo's palm plenty with all of the various gigs he's had...I don't see him that hungry for CFL football UNLESS his luv of the game dictates something different...Doesn't look like he'd make enough of a commitment, if any, to garner first over all this year...It would be a stretch for Jones and his gang to take him on spec...I like the idea but I think the riders would say nada.
