Maybe, maybe not. Municipal politics is much different than federal politics and doesn't pay nearly as well so she may not be interested in that sort of thing.

He already did! Walters was 2 steps ahead of everyone and let Charbonneau go because he knew Shay would fall to us. 🤣

How about Ferguson? He didn't even have Veresuk listed anywhere on his list of 72 players and he goes 2nd overall.

Alford goes 1st overall which means Hodge & Ferguson are both 0-1 in their mock drafts. PSA: it is not advisable to take a shot every time they have guessed wrong. 🤣

They took DL Kemari Munier-Bailey in the first and punter James Evans in the second.

He apparently has moved on from football based on an IG post he made but it's odd they wouldn't have just moved him to the retired list. His post said: “You shaped the boy and tested the man. Thanks for a lifetime in moments.”

The continued belief that we'd use a high pick on a QB just doesn't make any sense to . I get that it's probably one of the best years for Canadian QB's and that's ultra rare and a great story but I just don't see it happening.

FWIW: Ferguson has his 2nd mock draft up. Mock Draft 2.0: Who's going first overall to Calgary? - CFL.ca 3DN has their top 20 O-Line for this draft & there are 2 locals listed in the top 15 (#7 & 14) - I wonder if we take one of them on Tuesday. 2025 CFL Draft rankings: offensive linemen - 3DownNation

Yeah I don't think anyone was expecting Charbonneau to be anything other than an ST'er but those guys are needed and guys like Gauthier can't play forever. Just found it odd that they released him with a little over 2 weeks until camp starts - could always use him as TCF, even if they don't see him making the club.

You may want to go look at that "national" network - Sportsnet Radio consists of a grand total of 3 cities (Vancouver, Calgary & Montreal). Even the Blue Jays Radio Network is more regional than national with most of the stations being in Ontario. In Calgary, you have both but we have neither in MB so how are they building an audience here (or the many other places that don't have their radio service)?

It said tarriffs but why OP went back and edited the post to star it out is beyond me. It's not like it's an offensive word. If the board software would have auto-censored it, the whole word would be starred out, not just some of the letters.

First time over .500 with Hall as HC is probably what he means.

2024/2025 Blue Bombers Off-Season Thread
No, you're not crazy for thinking that. I don't think anyone puts out mock drafts worse than Ferguson's. In the past, he's had versions that did not end up with a single correct pick. It gets people talking though so I guess that's the point.

Once they hit 300k is when they lost their 2nd pick. Had they been 100-300k over, it would have cost them the first round pick only. Anything under 100k is a dollar for dollar fine.

Agreed but they've been rewarding mediocrity through the draft for a few years now. This is just a step from the extra territorial draft picks they've been handing out.

Yep, Bombers left him on the PR to end the year so he clearly wasn't a top priority for them.
