Yep, we may not have many starting roles up for grabs this year but there are still some key battles/progressions to watch. So happy football season is finally back!

I'm actually looking forward to watching them. Wade & Cole (from the limited reports) have had good camps so I want to see what they do in a game, even if it is only pre-season. **Edit, I was thinking Matt Cole (DB) not Brian Cole (LB).

Collaros did not play in either pre-season game last year, it was entirely Brown & Prukop.

My point was that you seem to have an absurd amount of anger/hate for many things and that is not limited to politics, or having a different point of view. I could have posted the same thing in a football thread and it would be just as valid.

No Legs or Sergio for the first pre-season game so they are giving the rookies a shot to see what they can do. I have zero expectations that Stanton sticks now that we have Sergio but I am interested in seeing the punters this weekend. https://winnipegsun.com/sports/football/cfl/winnipeg-bluebombers/bombers-will-give-place-kicker-chandler-staton-his-shot-in-pre-season-game-saturday

Don't worry, he won't run out of things to hate.

Tre Ford He's still in Edmonton. They had announced that neither he or Cornelius would be playing in the first preseason game.

At the very least, they should have some epic touchdown celebrations. 😂

I've completely given up trying to figure out what the NFL wants when it comes to signing CFL/XFL/USFL players. Guys who deserve a chance, don't get one while guys who have done relatively little get picked up. I feel bad for the players who have earned it but at the same time, the NFL's loss is our gain.

He signed with Edmonton late last year as well before moving on to the XFL where he actually got some meaningful playing time.

Harrison is banged up according to Tait and hadn't practiced in a couple days. Might not be the last we see of him.

Like him while he was here but now...

He first mentioned Jeffcoat not practicing on Wednesday. It was just termed a day off at the time though so maybe nothing to worry about? Hard not to though, given his injury history.

DT posted that he's been out since Day 4.

Mo Leggett still going.

Looks like we have some new decorations at IGF.

Was watching him on Monday and he looked pretty good, similar to what he looked like in 2021. He's 20 pounds lighter than he was as a rookie and 35 less than his college weight, according to 3DN.

Nino Niederreiter in the news. https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/2651178

According to Tait's latest quick hits article, Wade is having a good camp at LB. There's a little bit on him in there "LB Barrington Wade continues to open eyes during camp, especially with his speed, his length and his quick study of the Canadian game." https://www.bluebombers.com/2023/05/19/quick-hits-training-camp-day-6-2/?utm_source=dlvr.it

Yep, not sure why Bauming added that part in since this applies to: All CFL fans in the USA. All CFL fans in Canada who care to watch non-televised preseason games online.

CFL Week and Bauming already said no to that. One tweet I saw was guessing a Docu-Series. The Argos & Ticats already had something similar (Rivalries: The QEW Series) so I'd be interested in more of that, especially if the next one focused on the Bombers.

Yep. He also only played 11 games up here... missed a bunch of games due to a broken arm & heel injury (non-football related).

I mean they've already announced we're getting the GC in 2025 so what other "big" news could there be that will excite us specifically? The return of CFL week starting in Winnipeg next off-season? I'm already expecting to be underwhelmed.
