Around The League Off Season Discussion
If what has been reported is accurate, then the Riders are offering him about the same as the 1st and 2nd place picks last year, which on the surface sounds reasonable, until you factor in the fact that he's got to live in Regina. Clearly, they're not wanting to pay the "I gotta live here?" fee. I'd walk too.

Na, it's probably Friesen hoping to get a little love.

Because it's not about the "average person" knowing about positional numbering, the rules mandate the number range.

Yes, thanks so much for taking the time to do this. Great observations. You give those of us who can't be there a real feel for what's going on.

Touchdown Celebrations @ IGF
Saskatchewan should spend a little money and get this to go up and down the field the one or two times a game they score:

HA! I get it because they were discussing the the length of arms.

Touchdown Celebrations @ IGF
How about every time a touchdown is scored a fan gets to come down and kick Mike Kelly or Joe Mack (fan's choice) in the nads. I'd drive to Winnipeg every game for a chance at that.

Sadly, I did too. Can't remember anything from school, but I can quote Bugs chapter and verse.

Ok, ok a Lancaster fly over dropping these instead of the tee shirts. There, best of both worlds.

Cargo/transport usage only. If you're going in that direction, might as well make it a Herc. Which would work fine if they were called the Winnipeg Blue Haulers.

Touchdown Celebrations @ IGF
Lol, yes, we could do that except for the fact that it's a German bomber, there would be three of us in the stands that might recognize it and it would be so fragile that it would fall apart on the second touchdown!

That was never ever flown by Canadians? No thanks.

The plane design is a funny choice for those of us who are students of history. It's a bi-plane. Now there were bombers that were bi-planes in WWI, but that little plane is modeled after a fighter, so that has nothing whatsoever to do with the Bombers. If they tried to make the plane look like a little Lancaster or Halifax, that would be really cool. Or if one wanted a more modern aircraft, I guess an CF-18 "look" might work too. I realize that maybe 5% or less of people would know or care, but seeing that it's been brought up, there's my thoughts on it.

Dang, should have traded him to Saskatchewan first.

Touchdown Celebrations @ IGF
I second that thought. Score enough touchdowns and I really don't care what they do. Score too few and a fly over by a squadron of Lancaster bombers dropping free t-shirts wouldn't be enough. Well, if they were really nice t-shirts it might help, but still...

Yes, "if" he signs a contract. There's still the NFL and he could maybe get a shot there. Or, he could hold out for a bit, miss TC and a game or two, then sign a two year contract. And you better believe he'd walk after that contract expired. "If he proves he's a good player" has, to a certain degree, already happened because Saskatchewan took him first overall. That suggests that they value him over everyone else in the draft so to then offer him league minimum is not just low-balling, it's insulting, and don't think for a moment he'll forget that. Saskatchewan might be able to resign him, but if these rumours are true, the only way they resign him is after he's gone to free agency and they can bid for his services like everyone else. And again, don't think that other players aren't watching this and seeing how Jones seems to do business. This could end up costing Jones a lot more than he might be saving with this stunt.

That's rich. Let's take the #1 overall and then tick him off so badly that IF he signs a contract, there isn't likely going to be a second. And on top of that let's make sure everyone else in the league sees just how we treat players. Yes, if the reports are true, that's looking to be some top-notch negotiating going on in Riderville. Can't see anything that could possibly go wrong with this tactic!

Is Henoc Muamba pi**ing away his football career?
Signing one and only one contract with the Bombers can scarcely be called "bleeding blue and gold" and as for playing hard every down, isn't that sort of expected? So really, can't ask for much less.

The nice thing is that from the roof of the new stadium, you should be able to see the Children's Hospital in Saskatoon. I understand they're going to be calling it "Lil Critters What Ails"
