I've got my fingers crossed that Ellingson isn't going to be our latest "Vet Receiver Who Didn't Pan Out/Was A Bust".... I feel like he won't replace Lawler, but he'll at least replace Adams. 

Saunders took that title early this year... Ellingson should be safe!

I had completely forgotten about Saunders. You are 100% right as usual, dude...

You've tried that joke at least twice now and both times it fails because it's pronounced Showen not Shane

In @Tracker’s defence… “Shane” is the correct Mennonite pronunciation… so if he wants to be a honorary Manitoban he should consider the change…

I remember Bailey standing out as an excellent blocker as well last year - Similar body type to Adams as well.

He is. One of this biggest blocks was in 2019 Grey Cup on Harris first touchdown he blew up the Dend

The way Wayne Newton pronounces it in the song is actually incorrect.

Maybe Wayne is incorrect, but he made a zillion dollars off of it and Shoen is pronounced Shane in pop culture because of it. Therefore the Showen argument is irrelevant, because once Wayne changed it and set the world on fire with the possibly incorrect pronunciation it follows that anyone with the name Shoen was doomed to have Danke jokes levied at them ad nauseum. Any Danke Shoen jokes at our new receiver, and there will be a crap load of them, are fair game.

Every one in this starting wr core blocks well, its not optional for bomber wrs. But yes and at this point Bailey is probably our best blocker. He's a little bit shorter and heavier, though not a lot, but is a more stout body type than adams. For his listed size adams was and is pretty lean.

 play the Newton song already and hear how he pronounces it in a song.....pretty sure it's 'shane'...

If it's good enough for Wayne, it's good enough for anyone.

MOAR!!! I could listen to Paddy all game long. 

when he and Jake did the commentary on the Bombers "watch along" of the 2019 GC (in Nov 2020) it was sensational.... I would pay good money to watch game film with those guys over beverages...

This is just absolutely beautiful....

 

I kind of want to see him doing alternative rated R play by play with walby and west wood. Westy wood take such a verbal beating.

Any idea on practice times today? Haven't found it anywhere

It will end around 115 today. The exact times aren't posted on the Bombers' website but it shouldn't really matter as it's a closed practice.
