Maximum penalty: the amount you were over cap, plus a $250 000 fine and 3 draft picks. 

The answer to your penalties question Mr. Skunk - is YES. 

[M.O.A.B.]

Pursue Boateng (reportedly going to free agency) then we can go all import on the secondary. Ackie is intersting too.

If you like that name then you will really wish for the Bombers to draft this guy:

 

First time I've ever heard of these people but they're affiliated with some American outfit and provide testing data on players. They're going to be at the U of W tomorrow (Fri):

Anybody know anything about this?

I used to have Westerman as my profile pic but he left. 

I switched it up to Loffler. 

Provided the Bombers walk Loffler, are their any Nationals that MBB would like me to put in my profile pic next year? Someone we're not particularly fond of for the money?

In a perfect free-agency we sign Chungh the day or 2 before, then use money freed up from no Goosen/Lafrance/Opo/Loffler which frees up about a little over 500k if not more for what we already payed Goose/Opo/Lafrance/Loffler ..so 500k+ of last year committed money is available 

We give Boateng Opo'ish money say at with 165k and Adeleke a nice 135k to pull him out of Calgary and then with the remaining 200k we pick the receiver we think is the best and aggressively go at him..

We can flip ratio and start 2 imports on defence and 5 on offence and we have already have adequate rotation guys on the defense to rotate Boateng to give him a break...and if we re-up Corney it's even better

I'm about to click the link and read up on Bond, James Bond, but looking at that pic... How tall is he??

 

I'll know in a minute.

I like how every year for some reason I read about how the Bombers have zero space and money to sign free agents and every year we end up signing some big contract guys.  I don't see money being an issue if we are trying to sign a few key free agents.

whens the last time we seen that tho since???? and don't recall what happened next play, but I'd rather have a safety pick that pass off...not get there late...a better throw and arcenaeux makes that catch for a TD

Loffler took a roughing penalty for a helmet to helmet hit on that play. Instead of it being 3rd down, Leos got an automatic 1st down. The next play they punched in a touchdown. We lost that game by 2 points.

Just tells you how weak the safety position in the West is when he made all star. I was like, what?

Not just the West. Loffler has been the CFL all-star every year since he joined the league (and CFLPA all-star the last 2 years). So he is the best that is out there, but no safety is getting $200K.

[Booch]

almost like being the tallest midget ...lol....but yeah in a SMS world...your cap at safety shoulnd't exceed 150k for a great National if you ask me...and good one should command 130k..give or take a buck

In a perfect free-agency we sign Chungh the day or 2 before, then use money freed up from no Goosen/Lafrance/Opo/Loffler which frees up about close to 400k if not more for what we already payed Goose/Opo/Lafrance and an additional 100k from what reports say Loffler made in year 3...so 500k of last year committed money is available 

We give Boateng Opo'ish money say at with 165k and Adeleke a nice 135k to pull him out of Calgary and then with the remaining 200k we pick the receiver we think is the best and aggressively go at him..

Btw, you have a resume ready? Send it to Kyle Walters or Wade Miller. You could be an assistant SMS coordinator. 😊

Forgot about the 150k Randle was to make....I would make a hard push for Johnathon Rose for one of the corner spots...Nice size...tough...and probably signable for 115-125k for his second contract

Delvin Breaux?

[Booch]

Boateng plan wont work now. 🤪

[Booch]

yup...scratch that idea hahaha

[Arnold_Palmer]

We’ll have space to add a few guys come free agency. We dumped a lot of salary.

Loffler won't get $200 grand from anyone. But it looks like he doesn't really want to come back anyway.

Whoa, whoa whoa... You can't make claims like this when Reed is still a GM.

LOL! Okay, it's MOST LIKELY Loffler won't get $200 grand from anyone.

So teams who spend the most money win? So.. In what sport is that true? 

Should we bother having a season and just give the cup to the team who spends the most money? 

Just an odd post here.
