I’m told that @dariandurant would consider leaving retirement to join the @Wpg_BlueBombers but as of yet they have not inquired. #CFL #bombers

(Insert derisive commentary, here)

Darian Durant needs to fade away............

[Mike]

I'd rather we not win a single game this year than welcome that ****ing loser back to this franchise.

[do or die]

Ok, good start, there.....

[Floyd]

So he wants to spend time with his family and new daughter... unless he’s a starting QB then fk them ha...

stay classy Darian

[do or die]

....who, we were told still "bleeds Green"

[Fatty Liver]

[Nickthesizz]

just saw Nichols is out 4-6 weeks.

IF this is true and it’s not worse than that, could this actually turn out being a good thing? 

Hear me out. Imagine Nichols is out 6 weeks, we go 3-3 or 2-4 we are nowhere close to out of the race. Nichols comes back and gives a huge boost to the team and has been resting for the first third of the season.

I know wishful thinking but we have to be positive at this point.

Plus that would mean who ever is started played decent and they got precious experience in the mean time.

Maybe we establish a half decent backup in the process and are better off in the long run if anything happens to Nichols.

Raise your hand if you're not only a selfish, disrespectful, childish, b*tch-made punk, but also a pathetically transparent and opportunistic one, too.

Just f*ck off into the sunset already, ya douchenozzle.

Id rather they just sue him.

Durant can **** off, he revealed his character and I want no part of that cancer in the locker room.

haha I just said the same thing to a guy in the office - I'd rather lose every game then have DD back.

So...really, with Pre-season this week, we're looking at him missing 3 games...maybe 2 if he's back the early part of 4 weeks?

So im confused. U want to bring him back? Cuz him starting = lose every game.

I think he's going on the 6 game DL, which means he's available after 4 games (I think). 

[bustamente]

After what he pulled and the asinine twitter comments he thinks that Bombers fans would want him back, he really drank to much go go juice in Regina because he is delusional, I know the fans are not and I hope management is not that desperate.

[jazzsax]

I think the bigger question about the injured list is are they counting from start of regular season or including preseason. 

Plan for him to be out the first 4 games of the regular season (through the July 7th game at home) at least. Gives him a month to heal. 

4 games plus 1 preseason is ALOT of playtime for our backups. They can get a ton of experience.

If we can come out of it 2-2 awesome. Anything better than that and we are laughing. 

 

[Stickem]

Darian Durant ...   persona non grata around these parts....take off eh Darian....ya bug me....Probably part of some demented plan to stick it to us one more time...Cash your cheque and shut the fu up

[Floyd]

Bombers should contact him, convince him to come back then withdraw the offer and sue him for that signing bonus

[Albertabomberguy]

I would take a cheese grater to my bombers tattoo if Durant was to put on a bombers uniform 

[Booch]

On the Durant willing to unretire..that's funniest thing I heard in a while.. after what he said and then say he could come back if needed is pathetic

As for injury...based on timeline it's what I figured..meniscus tear I bet..more specifically a crescent tear which when occurs can seem like your knee gave out on you and u did something major...I had one myself and when it folds over in the joint causes major pain...sometimes locks up..or as in his case causes u to collapse...easy surgery orthascropic..trim it..clean out any debris and rest up..I came back in 3 weeks on mine and just depends on your pain threshold..if u have minimal swelling from the surgery and what kind of mentality u have..

Technically u can play with it unfixed but it can be painful..cause swelling and tear worse...and if it folds and flips around you have results of what happened in practice.. or worse

[do or die]

 Durant can have my answer now.  Nothing, not even a signing bonus, which I would appreciate, if he returns the previous bonus.

Thank you for your time, Mr. Corleone...

Gotta make him fly all the way here before suing him in person.

No need to sue Darant, just get him to drive to Winnipeg, then pull a Kavis and ask him to take a pay cut; $70k sounds right but a drop in pay of $100k would be better.
