CFL Releasing a Mobile Game
Yes I agree, if EA made the game it would be way better. I respect Canuck Play for trying, but they came up with a poor product and the league was right not to align with them. I am surprised and impressed by the CFL making this mobile game. It is a smart move.

Westerman Out For Season
Well he still hasn't done anything that makes me believe he is even a better option that Shayon Green. Prove me wrong, Opo, prove me wrong!

Sure it is. If we didn't DI Flanders, we would have DI'd Thorpe (or Lankford, and started Thorpe). Just like it worked before Flanders came in to the lineup.

Westerman Out For Season
A real reporter doesn't wait for the news to be handed to him, he goes out and finds it himself. This is just a journalist getting mad because he has to do real work rather than pump out 200 words in 15 minutes a day based on a few cherry-picked quotes and a press release. Traditional media deserves all the problems they've been having because they let themselves get stale and lazy.

Bombers Release Thorpe
Hell of a player! Could definitely be an impact signing but he hasn't played in awhile.

Bombers vs Redblacks: Bomber Football Is Back Edition
I'd like to see a little more consistency in his game. He has made an impact in 3 out of the 7 games he has played in.... but in the other 4 he struggled to gain 2 or 3 yards per carry. You could argue it's a lack of opportunity but if he is not producing then the coaches are not at fault. A guy like Flanders isn't going to get 10 touches just to get going. He needs to produce every time he touches the ball. While I do like Flanders, the spotlight is now on him to perform because we let Thorpe go in order to keep him. Earn that spot.

The Environment Thread
Taxes and fees will do nothing to reduce the human impact on climate change. We should be incentivizing technological advancement rather than throwing more taxes on the population. More green energy, more green transportation... that's the way forward. Not asking everyone to reduce their consumption. That's an idiotic approach and it will never work. And by the way, until you can get China, India, and other highly populated countries to reduce their emissions, any changes made by the US and Canada will be futile. We are just a drop in the bucket compared to what happens elsewhere in the world. Make no mistake, all this talk of carbon and emissions tax is just a money grab by government, parading under the guise of protecting the environment. It almost makes me sick how many people buy into the lie.

Bombers Release Thorpe
I don't know why you couldn't put him on the roster and take off Foketi. He wouldn't be playing but at least he would be getting a pay cheque. Then again, it may turn out to be hugely beneficial to keep Foketi around if we lose any of our 3 import Americans this off-season. It is tough to manage a roster, I do not deny that. But I do see options.

2017 Preseason
Could be. Kulikov is a huge question mark for me. Myers as well. I think at this point we know what we're getting out of Toby, Buff, and Trouba. Morrissey.... I have faith that he will be very good again but weird things sometimes happen when guys hit their second full year. Hopefully the depth should be better but that depends on what we get out of Poolman and Niku. Otherwise we are looking at Chiarot and Melchiori as the primary depth guys which isn't terrible but not really any better than Chiarot/Postma/Stuart. I have "high hopes"... but I also recognize that there is a long way to go and a lot of work to be done.

We'll see more Corney, I have no doubt about that. But there will be a heavy rotation. If we were ever serious about pursuing Mulumba, now would be the time.

Without TJ Thorpe, this team doesn't win against Montreal to start the big win streak. No chance.

2016 re-draft
Tevaun Smith could also be a factor eventually. You also left out Anthony Thompson who has started games for the Lions and played relatively well. If Lalama makes it, then surely you must include Frank Renaud, Kevin Jackson, Mike Kashak, Felix Faubert-Lussier, Declan Cross and Pierre-Luc Caron. Maybe that can be your 3rd round. Jamal Campbell and Dillon Guy are two OL who haven't really played much but still have as much or more potential than Mike Couture. And that's not a shot at Couture. Good list though. Lots of guys from the 2016 draft having an impact. It was a little weak at the top end but lots of depth throughout.

Bombers Release Thorpe
The frustrating thing for me is that Thorpe is the best rookie receiver, by a mile, this regime has brought aboard in 4 years and they let him walk.

2017 Preseason
Excited to finally get a look at this Niku character. The European players, especially those that haven't been in big international tourneys, are always intriguing because they are such unknowns. At least with the guys coming up from the CHL and NCAA, we've seen them play a bit.

LOL are we starting this already? For the record, the Philly fans call him Headcase Mase. I think that's a pretty solid nickname.

Ridirts @ Tabbies: Cellar Bowl
They've improved a bit recently. Kept both TO and OTT under 25 points and 400 yards offence. I mean they are not best in the league by a long shot but I do think they are coming together to some degree. And they'll be at home. Saskatchewan, I'm still not sold that they are "for real." The character of their team is just too questionable. But maybe tonight they stomp Hamilton and prove me wrong.
