Preseason B Super Saturday OTT@HAM, BC@CGY, SSK@EDM, TOR@MTL
Absurdly strong. Didn’t look it, but nearly impossible to bring down.

2024 Blue Bomber Training Camp
Truthfully I only watched the 1st half, then decided to work in my yard. The OL had both good & bad moments, I'll chalk up some cohesion issues to the new starters. DL... Interior is fine, edge rushers I would've liked to see more from. Tackling also still not great. I won't dive too deep into a preseason game, but overall I'm pleased. The biggest takeaway I've had so far is that there are no significant injuries so far, feels like that was a trend the last 3 years.

Can never discount what a 5'8" guy did. Few his size dominated the way he did, WD7 was always open. Especially on corner routes into the endzone, essentially uncoverable. Will never forget his TD to seal the 2013 Grey Cup. As someone who is also on the smaller side, he was my idol playing high school football. Made it seem achievable to keep playing.

2024 Blue Bomber Training Camp
It's so difficult to keep a dynasty moving, but in the CFL you've had BC from 2004-2011 rolling, Calgary took over from 2012-2018, and it's been the Bombers since 2019. Seems like a 6-7 year window of success before some struggles come. FWIW, with the way WPG recruits, I don't see that drop coming anytime soon.

I hope he succeeds too. League needs an influx of new talent.

I always liked what I saw from Brown. Stylistically he reminds me a bit of ZC, but scrambles a bit like Reilly. Jury is absolutely out on him, he could be the next Mike Reilly, or the next Nick Arbuckle.

Iirc, Schoen kind of replaced Darvin Adams didn’t he?

I’m guessing the two events were correlated.

I’m fine with taking Hergel but surely you could’ve got him later?

An automatic ticket to the Grey Cup is what I’ve heard.

Chad Kelly is an epic moron, wow.

I’ll agree with all. Could see Ottawa maybe taking Montreal’s spot depending on the success of Brown.

“Claypool to the CFL” doesn’t translate remotely to “Rider fans think they have a shot at signing him.” You literally made that up. I’m not sure it’s Rider fans education you should be concerned about.

Your hyperbole continues to be hilarious. I don’t think anyone in that entire thread mentioned “a real chance” at signing Claypool. Most either didn’t know who he was, and if they did, they know about his attitude issues. I do enjoy your continued efforts to speak for all Rider fans. You’re good at it.

A friend of mine was actually in the crowd when Murphy yelled the slur at a fan. It was his friend that got punched by Murphy, it’s still an absolutely insane scenario.

Not sure if it’s been mentioned here, but Henoc Muamba retired. One of the better CFL ambassadors we’ve ever had. Always found him to be very personable and likeable.

You’re a clown. Every team has had an incident with a player, a DUI is one thing, sexually harassing team staff is another. To say he belongs with the Riders is an absolutely idiotic statement. Not shocking coming from you though.

I’ve lived in Calgary most of my life, and it’s taken a sharp decline, especially post pandemic. I don’t bother walking around downtown unless I’m in a densely populated area. I’ve also spent time living in Orlando FL, and that was… certainly an experience.
