Ted Laurent expected to sign with Ticats
I wouldn't include Collaros in that group - he's making less than what Burris did last season so they saved money signing him. Has anyone heard what Laurent and Lawrence signed for?

Unannounced names from this weekend
Penton wrote in today's Sun: He does use the word "could" though so it seems he isn't sure of the numbers.

Main Camp Day 1 (Reports and Discussion)
So far there's no indication they won't be practicing.

Rookie Camp Day 3 (Reports and Discussion)
All teams' rookies camps are three days. Saturday was the days the veterans arrived for physicals. What makes you think the Bombers don't. In May, they just held a free National Coaches Certification Program clinic (Bombers paid the fees for all coaches) at IGF. The Bombers are very involved with Football Manitoba. Also in May, Wade Miller and Kyle Walters were coaches for this year's Seniors Bowl (high school) and they were running practices. There are players (current and former) who do football clinics in the off-season (as a business as well as for free). Thing is the media doesn't report on stuff like that or if they do it's just a small blurb.

Rookie Camp Day 3 (Reports and Discussion)
It's great that they went out to Drumheller but rookie camps ended on Friday so they didn't end it early.

CJOB's New Morning Radio Team
The news breaks are conditions of their license. I doubt the number of commercials they air is any different from any other station that is not commercial-free - it just seems like more because of the news breaks.

He was still under contract when he was let go. From the FP:

New loge seating at IGF
I'm not positive but I think I read they took out some existing seating and replaced it with the loge seats so I don't think it effected the concourse.

Rookie Camp Day 2 (Reports and Discussion)
Considering you can get the Sun for free from their boxes or on the bus from Monday to Friday, it seems dumb to charge for it on their website. Having said that, this thread sure has gone off topic fast.

TSN Off-Season Game Plan: Winnipeg Jets
That's unfortunate. But his agent also said burmi wouldn't go to the K. So it could be a negotiating ploy. Burmi has no leverage. He either plays for the jets or he doesn't play in the NHL. That was a different agent. He had a North American agent who said he wasn't going to the KHL. His Russian agent is the one who got him the KHL contract.

Bombers negotiate Transit game day discount
It didn't go to a council vote. There really hasn't been an answer given for why it didn't or why the City pulled their proposal other than the BS thing about the Bombers making a profit last year.

Bombers negotiate Transit game day discount
One of the papers said Transit has to be involved because it's a condition in the agreement that was signed to get IGF built.

Rookie Camp Day 1 (Reports and Discussion)
Probably because he's wearing a Canucks shirt at the start.

Rookie Camp Day 2 (Reports and Discussion)
To those who made it to rookie camp today, I salute you. I can't handle the heat like we had today so I admire you dedication.

Bombers sign Briggs and Jones
Yeah they are a sect of the Mennonite faith. If you go to the Steinbach Mennonite museum you'll see the migration maps from Europe to North America. As far as I know there are no Amish people in BC or Manitoba. There's an amish settlement (is that the right word?) between Gladstone & Neepawa. I think you mean Hutterite. Never heard of Amish in MB. but plenty of Hutterite colonies and of course lot's of swingin' Mennonites such as Vic Toews. No, it is an Amish community. http://www.cbc.ca/m/news/#!/content/1.628652

Bombers bringing Bisons' QB Yantz to TC
From an article from last year at the CFL website: Yantz was actually at the Lions TC last season while Ben Rossong was at the Bombers TC.
