Lirim Hajrullahu
Lirim has been arguably worse at punting than place kicking this year. They shouldn't have confidence he can do either spot right now. What?? He's been one of the best (if not THE BEST) directional punters in the league, bar none! Sorry, Noeller. Not true. He's great at angling them, but the hangtime he puts on the ball is absolutely awful. If he doesn't pin it dead on, we give up a big return because he's sent a line drive beyond coverage and allowed them no time to set up.

Week 16 CFL - Mon. - Tor.@ Mont. (Sask. 15 - Hamilton 30)
I don't understand this. Are you implying that they're better simply because they're catching more touchdowns?

Bombers add 2, cut one from PR
I liked Joe Hill.

Lirim Hajrullahu
That's ... innovative.

Bombers add 5 to practice roster
Two minutes in but this has to be one of the worst highlight tapes I've ever seen for a defensive end.

Last chance saloon ...
Last Chance Saloon? I'll be next door at Don't Give a **** Tavern. I've lost total interest this year. Franchise player? Out. Offensive gameplan? Uninspiring. Playoff chances? Life support. No thanks.

Lirim Hajrullahu
Yeah, that'll absolutely help his confidence....good call. We're in the business of winning football games and he's now cost us at least two. **** his confidence.

Lawless on Matt Nichols
I think it's fair to say if we had a competent offensive coordinator, we'd see just how big the drop off is.

Lawless on Matt Nichols
Definitely a noticeable drop off between Willy and Nichols.

With owners with big wallets who are willing to open them up it should be much better for the team. Add a good schedule and nice stadium that is much better for football than Rogers Centre and it should help get fans out. Rogers, ptuie. That company is run by a family who are just a bunch of CFL-hating wannabe Americans. If Government regulations didn't require them to be headquartered in Canada they'd move to New York faster than you can say "eh?". As a bloke on Esksfans.com pointed out, the silhouette of Rogers Centre is oddly (even though it's sponsored by Shaw, it's still odd) missing from the 2016 Grey Cup Logo. That's because the game will be played at BMO Field. The point is that the silhouette at the bottom is of the Toronto skyline. The Rogers Centre is very much a part of the Toronto skyline. Except in that logo.

Henoc Muamba signs with Als
That was me ... WR - he was draft eligible in 2015 but went undrafted. Just a hunch they'll give him a deal too.
-
Henoc Muamba signs with Als
I think it's more a case of them viewing Henoc as a luxury at this point. Unbeknownst to a lot of us, Sam Hurl has actually become a pretty good MLB. He plays well within our system and probably doesn't get enough credit. For us to add Henoc was something we could do, but I'm sure we probably capped out our budget at some point. I wanted Henoc back but hey, I'll still gladly take Ian Wild, Khalil Bass, Chris Randle and Sam Hurl. Also - I wonder how much having Waggoner in the system played a part in their decision.

Henoc Muamba signs with Als
I actually think he's going to end up playing with both brothers. I bet whoever signs him signs his brother Kelvin too. It'll be Edmonton, more than likely.

Henoc Muamba signs with Als
Interesting. Good for him. Sucks for us, but I was resigned to it. My guess is Edmonton. Seems too obvious.

Bombers add 2, release 2
Really shouldn't have anything to do with the cap. 6 game or cut, there's no difference.

No End Call - CFL confirms it was an incorrect call
You did read that, but it was a mistake. The line judge stands on the line, not the side judge.

Bombers add 2, release 2
Peach relying on his contain abilities and dedication to assignment responsibility isn't good enough for me. What that says to me is that this is the best international rush end we can find and that in itself is a sad story.
-
Bombers add 2, release 2
You don't think that's a bit melodramatic. He had 7 sacks last season and none this season. Not really fair to include the off-season. Whether you think it's melodramatic or not, it doesn't make him suck any less.
-
Bombers add 2, release 2
It's been almost a year since Greg Peach had a sack.

Bombers add 2, release 2
I like that we're looking at a running back who hasn't already made his way through the semi-pro and CFL tryout circuit. 2015 NFL draft eligible, bubble roster player, makes his way up here instead. Way better odds . Can't say the same for Vaughn.

I don't. He's terrible.
