Yes the ones that lived in town during the season. Which I believe Holly Jefferson did last season along with their young daughter. 

Maybe 4-5 years ago when she was apart of the Bomber organization... she's long gone from being in that spot though.

Kim might have have the inside scoop.  I know she no longer works for the club but given her prior position with the club. She probably built some close friendships with the players wives and girlfriends.  Especially those that were living in town with their husbands/boyfriends.  

 

That’s true, women always go to the bathroom with eachother and what else would they talk about

My bad...I thought she was employed by the team up until the end of last season.

Seriously, though... Babij-Gesell hasn't been a part of the organization for over two years.
How would she has some sort of inside track with players' significant others who weren't even part of the team back then?

Hi I'm Kim. Does your husband play for the Bombers? Yes? Want to be friends?

That's too bad, very underrated. But Richardson is no slouch. Maybe Nevis comes back late like last off-season?

Maybe the Argos, in trying to recruit him, will take him to a Drake concert....ba dom tish!!

Thank you...I am here all weekend....

That's super lame about Nevis going FA - he is a force on the inside, main part of our run D imo

Maybe's he's hoping for a $150-200k payout

He did the same thing last year. Hopefully if he decides to leave, the bombers can snag Wynn or Laing.

I doubt it, read that Toronto has interest in him. Having Thomas as a starter is a bit meh for me.

Thomas as full-time starter would hinder us...especially if we lose Willie...he's fine as a rotational piece...but thats about it

Maybe Nevis and team are too far apart in salary..so he is going to see what he can get, maybe we are going National there and targeting Laing...Wynn...maybe something outta the blue...guess we will see...that being said if we legit are gonna toss money at Willie...someone who was due to make some significant money had to be clipped

Maybe we go quasi 3-4..With Richardson in the Nose..Jeffcoat and McCallister at the ends and Willie plays..wherever...try and match up for that...be an O-line nightmare

If we are bringing Willie Jefferson back the money has to come from somewhere.

As much as we all love Deake Nevis, American DTs are out there in numbers.

Huff apparently forgetting that only shitty organizations that can't scout need to go shopping in free agency.

Yeah my timing was a bit off too.  2017 was her last season with the team but by that point she was only doing game-day hosting.  From what I can tell, she hadn't been in a role where she would have significant contact with the players since 2015.

Funny how that has changed.

Also funny that he is letting Dennis walk despite that attitude.

Says something about Dennis.

Shhsss!!! Don’t say anything bad about him! He will come on here and tell you that you are wrong and he’s the best tackle in the league and he does no wrong and the cfl is a cheap league and etc and etc....

He sure changed his tune. Not easy when injuries & one year contracts rob you of your depth & you become just another organization trying to get by.

I gotta ask, when you pull theories like this one out of your ass, does it sting?

As rare as trades are, I can see the possibility of them shipping Eli to The RedBlacks. After all, It was their coach (Lapo) who has some kind of family connection that enticed him to come to Wpg in the first place. Eli's contract also only runs through this season and he might still get some NFL attention to boot.

A Canadian center can get you some shiny things.

Eli connection is with Danny Mac

Can't bump Nevis but Walters  is willing to offer Jefferson 3 times his salary, that makes no sense from a salary management perspective.
