2019 GREY CUP CHAMPIONS!!!
Don't know who in the Bombers org is responsible for running their twitter account, but they do a stellar job of it.

Bombers recruiting Derel Walker
Sure, he's a dynamic player, but can Walker block?

Thank you Matt Nichols
Personally, I think if he was given the opportunity last year we still would've been champs. Wish him all the best in his future endeavors... I suspect he'll land in Ottawa with Lapolice, but that's just me. Left everything on the field for this team and city - I hope he will tell his daughter fond stories of Winnipeg and how she got her middle name (Winnie) as he helped turnaround an otherwise floundering organization, and he was able to simultaneously resurrect his football career. All the best.

2019-20 Grey Cup Champs Off-season discussion.
After they won the Grey Cup, this accurately describes my off-season, to date.

Did You Know..
The Hamilton Tigers were merged with the Ti-Cats in 1950 due to financial issues, I think it's only fair to merge them with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats

If taking victory formations at the end of every practice allows those Tabbies to go undefeated in the regular season, and crap the bed when it matters most in the playoffs, I'm all for it as well.

I know it's not really Walter's style, but we should get a 2019 Grey Cup Champions billboard put up in Regina lol

Did You Know..
Fun fact of the day...just how bad are they? The Saskatchewan Roughriders have four (4) Grey Cup championships since being founded in 1910. So do the University of Toronto Varsity Blues, who began competing one year earlier (1909). The difference? The Varsity Blues last eligible season playing for the Grey Cup was 1935. Winning the Grey Cup is a pretty big trick though lol.

This assessment is fair, I can't see Arbuckle signing here without us overpaying for him (and he might not like working 1-2 with Streveler). Besides, the remaining available QBs are either injury prone (Nichols, Collaros, Masoli), more unproven than MBT (Prukop, Cozart), are washed up (Jennings, Franklin), or are just plain bad (Watford, Kilgore, Bridge, O'Brien). In a perfect world - we'd trade Collaros back to Toronto for MBT and THEIR first rounder LOL, dare to dream I guess.

I think people are overvaluing what MBT was able to do in Toronto... he did it with no external pressure from an uncaring fan base and media as it became quickly apparent Toronto was the leagues' doormat with their 0-6 start. People are out of touch if they think paid football players don't take teams lightly on occasion.... should it happen? No. Does it happen? Absolutely.

2020 Blue Bombers Schedule
As an office worker, I hate Thursday night games... if work permits, I plan on (and suggest you do to) taking those Fridays off, makes the game more enjoyable for me, and work doesn't have to deal with me dragging sleep-deprived butt into work on the Friday.

good news thread (non polItical please)
This would just raise minimum wage (and the cost of everything else) - you'd just be putting inflation into hyperspeed. To keep things positive and relevant to this thread - paid off my mortgage.

You didn't agree with what Mr Dee said... and did not ignore him, you contradicted yourself in a matter of two sentences..

2020 CFL Free-Agents
Warren Moon threw one of the tightest spirals I've ever seen in his prime.

2020 CFL Draft
I'd be okay with the Bombers picking last in the first round every year.
