why? it's pre-season game 1. It's irrelevant, lots of those guys playing tomorrow will be gone by Wednesday at the latest.

3 second round picks? was the trade not hall and a 2nd rounder to sask for neufeld? where are these other 2 picks that we traded to take an oline? unless you are refering to trading our 2 3rd's for sasks second to take briggs, in which case, they are not related at all. I'm not sure why people do this sometimes. The trade wasn't 3 second rounders for neufeld It was alex hall (who isn't in the cfl anymore) and 1 2nd to sask for Neufeld. rather have the 2nd round pick in a weak draft where that player wouldn't be starting anywhere? right guard or tackle, who cares, he's starting, that's all that matters. oh wait, pre season game 1 depth chart says he isn't.. must panic based on 1 pre-season game!!

Just for the record, i do think Kane is a good player, i'm just not sure he has the character the jets are looking for, i'm not sure he's worth the headache that he brings at times. I'm not in the locker room so i don't know what he's like as a team mate but... IF the players on the team don't like the guy, there is no real indication they do or don't, just saying if they don't, it's probably best to get rid of him. and really, for all we know, kane has asked to be traded. If the guy dont want to be here, it's best to move on.

i don't mind the name, it's growing on me.. think about it, if this was winnipeg getting a team in 2014 and they were called the blue bombers, people would hate that name too.

It's the first pre-season game. Step back and realize that. This is not what our roster will be week 1 or even next pre-season game. Not sure why everyone is reading too far in to the depth chart for our first pre-season game. Pre-season is to get guys reps, give the rookies a chance to see what they can do in a sort of game like situation, cuz normally there seems to be an agreement amongst coaches that they will not go all out in game 1. I dont care if the bombers win or lose, tie or whatever.. it's all irrelevant, these games mean very little, it's just to evaluate players. The games that matter are the ones that will be played in a couple weeks from now. With that being said though, of course... let's go bombers!! but... i'm more excited to see what the rookies can do out there. The score really doesn't matter. See if a few new guys stand out.

The Jets have to fish or cut bait on Kane. If he goes another year as Jets top mope he won't fetch a 3rd or 4th rounder. Now is the time to get somethin' for the guy and trade him to another conference. I think Kane fans are truly in the minority for the first time. I don't think so actually. Kane is a good player, he actually is, his numbers and corsi says he is... go check out hfboards.com Kane is very much a well liked player here and most those "nerds" don't want to trade him. I'd say it's probably 75/25 in favour of keeping kane.

highly unlikely we burn a DI on an import OL. Talk about wasting roster spots.

Minimum 2, probably 3. And the odd game they might go as high as 4, especially if Morley looks really old and The Goose is still a few games or a season away from starting. With four imports on the O-Line we'd have to start Volney at RB and have three Canadian receivers. Should have drafted Coombs... I'm going to ask you this once and move on, on the free press comments section there is a poster by the name of bob ganason, is that you? because only he'd mention something as ridiculous as what you did to a response talking about 4 import oline.. yup, should have drafted coombs, yeah that fixes our lack of canadian oline problem for sure..

yeah they do, it's just tentative though, its like.. done but the players and owners need to ratify it. T's to cross, I's to dots... lawyers gotta sign up on it, etc etc it's like when the nhl lockout ended, fehr and bettman came out on tv, said we have reached a deal.. well, that deal wasn't officially signed until a few days to a week or so later. Needed to be ratified or approved by the owners and players. When a deal is reached between those in charge and the league, the deal always gets ratified. Players will vote this through, might not be 100 percent (never is) will be like 90/10 or something ridiculous. That 10 percent will never be known but you could guess who they were by their tweets. Most players on my twitter seem to be more happy that the season is gonna start on time and that they are gonna get to play games soon. Of course there are always the bitter players and those players seem to reside in calgary right now.

Most those tweets are from stampeder players it seems. I thought the jason vega tweet summed it up nicely Put the phones down and #gotobed It really seems like a handful of stamps players are the only ones upset, the rest of the players seem to be fine with it

was just about to post it. lol Matthew Scianitti @TSNScianitti After a conference call #CFLPA has verbally agreed to terms on a tentative deal for a new CBA w the #CFL,

looks like they have reached a tentative deal. according to the twitter feed on the side

just saying but i doubt that 2 owners (braley and wettenhall) are actually holding things up, i highly doubt it. sure they own 3 of the 9 teams in the league but... i doubt 2 guys would try to do something to harm the 6 other teams they dont own.

Im not sure about KANE, eventually you have to show more than just potential, he's been in the league a few years, is he a good player? i guess, can he be a very good player? probably but im not sure the dedication or heart is there completely. I'm not convinced kane is this can't miss prospect anymore, i think he is what he is and he might get a bit better but im not sure how much better he will get actually.

breaking news: the cflpa are watching the kings rangers in OT.

3 hour cflpa conference call. This is either, they are telling all players the deal is done or they are gonna walk out shortly. 3 hours is very long. heart wants to say they got a deal done, head and gut know better though. Its to implement their strike strategy cuz how would it take 3 hours to let players now a deal is done.

I know i said buff, but i'd suspect that kane would actually be the guy moving in that deal, so essentially the lw marchand replaces the lw kane.

Drew Edwards ✔@scratchingpost A source close to the negotiations between the #CFL & #CFLPA says progress has been made today and talks are continuing. Drew is a very reliable source, one of the, if not, THE BEST, writer in the league. This has got Good news written all over it.

yup. my mistake there. Don't use park and ride so really was just concentrating on the 2.55 thing.

man if this iglesias kid ever sees the field and scores a td, they need to play "hero" by enrique. That would be oustanding.

bleacher report (pretty reliable) is reporting the bruins are shopping marchand and the jets are interested. Buff to boston for marchand and a pick?

i'll explain, i used to live in ek, still sort of do but... the 2.55 for example would be for me to hop the #11 bus lets say, then i would get a tranfer downtown and hop on to the 60 university bus, this is how i got to school every day. (most days) it's not different for the bombers... 2.55 gets you on a regular transit bus... all you have to pay is 2.55, you can get your transfers cuz unless you live on that side of the city, you are more than likely gonna need to transfer once.. the 5$ is for the park and ride, it's my understanding that the 5$ covers just the park and ride.. you pay your 5$ (per car it seems) and you hop on a school bus. Bombers must have got a pretty decent deal there if you only paying 5$ for a car load (which could be 5 or 6 people per car)

its day 7, lets not look to far in to who is getting reps where, it's all irrelevant, its likely if that game goes ahead monday that there will be several cuts afterwards, the who the oline, how the ratio works out will sort itself out over the next few weeks, i'll go on record tho here, no chance in heck we start 3 import oline. NOt a chance.

Gonna be honest here, i don't particular care for talk radio, when i turn the radio on in my house or car, its not to hear other people talking. I hate it actually, it frustrates me to no end, i did however give tsn 1290 a chance to sway my listening habits a bit, and they completely sucked in my opinion. Now i rarely to never listen to the radio (only for bomber games) and only to listen to music, really i have an iphone and i'd rather just plug that in and listen to it. Talk radio is just not something i care for, heck even on the music stations when the hosts start talking i switch it, it's just not my idea of entertainment.. entertainment to me is not listening to other people ***** about everything.
