2026 CFL Around The League (Not Bombers Specific)
The name Eskimos is offensive to a certain group of mostly white people. I'm an old white guy, and I'd have no problem with the Winnipeg Whitemen. I suspect the same group of white people who find Eskimos offensive would find Whitemen equally offensive. Changing the team's name to placate one group of people also pisses off another group. That said, the name change has little to nothing to do with the lack of fans in the stands & changing it back wouldn't either.

Cats at Bombers GDT
Neither team played defence last night. Tons of big plays for both offences. Receivers on both teams were wide open, and the QB's got them the ball. Looks like both teams will need to score 30 points to win.

We lost on the Doink and the pick in the endzone. Those 2 plays cost us 6 points with a good chance at 10.

2026 Bombers Season
I like getting the national (Toronto) view, as it's an echo chamber in here. Top 4 look right to me though.

PS Game #2
It was the worst pre-season stream yet. At the beginning they didn't have CJOB in sync. The play was over before they started describing it. They showed folks in the crowd instead of the plays. Showed ads while the play was going on. Pure amateur hour.

DAZN doesn't fix that problem. Your son will now be able to easily find 20% of the games. Big whoop!

2026 CFL Around The League (Not Bombers Specific)
The CFL the way it was, was good enough. Getting all the games by paying for one subscription was good enough. No globals was good enough.

New TV Contract
Owners are on side cuz they see the dollar signs right now, and they don't care if it kills the CFL if/when DAZN pulls its money for lack of viewers.

This is the perfect DAZN game. IE... I don't care if I miss it.

2026 Bombers Season
Elgersma throws a great ball, but as I expected, the game is too fast for him, and he made some ill-advised throws. Tim White was great. Did everything they asked for and more. The O-line protected well but didn't open up any running lanes. Two pick-sixes off of backup QBs should have been the story of the game, but the 3rd stringers let it get away. Looked like a lovely day at the ball park, way better than that eastern rain bowl. Football is back!

Which QB's would you trade for Collaros straight up?

First new rule shows up... no points on a punt that goes outta bounds in the endzone.

Blue Bombers -- 2025/26 Offseason -- Discussion Thread
As I sit here in Calgary, watching the snow fall... I wonder if moving the season forward is the right decision.

When was the last time you saw major changes changed back? The US expansion when all but 1 team bascally folded and the other got an NFL team? That's not the same thing at all.
