Around the League: 2018 Season
I’d love to see Durant return and be given the starting assignment for game 1. First play on offence the oline moves aside and let’s Edmontons front seven nail him. That would definitely get a better cheer than the one when Austin got hurt and Slingin Sammy came in. I believe Austin gave the crowd the finger while leaving the feild as the crowd chanted “Sammy Sammy”. This oline would get a standing ovation if they let Durant get pasted. To be honest Durant is so fat and out of shape I’d be surprised if he even beat out Bennett for the number 3 spot.

Training Camp 2018
I hear you. The point is pick up someone that is not going to cost you anything. If Nichols is out for 6-8 weeks, save some salary and show your club you have faith in them. This is the best time if there is for this to happen. Stay the course

I’d rather see the Bombers sign Drew Tate out of retirement than trade away any assets for someone else’s back up. There isn’t a back up on any of the other teams that is far and away better than anything the club already has. Why give away a pick or player for a qb that may end up being the third stringer here. The rest of the Offence needs to step up.

McDonald did my reconstructions at Pan Am. Burnell has about a year waiting list but took a look at my X-rays and promised to get me in 4months. Rehab sucks but nothing near the discomfort before. I work out regularly and have no issues with it. Don’t put it off man. You are losing valuable days of pain free time. Now...given the crap that I have gone through (concussions, broken noses, stitches etc and never having any aspirations of going pro in sport....I would not have given up my years of football and hockey. I developed many close and important relationships that I values still to this day. Sport helped me communicate and work with others. I learned to respect others importantly my own abilities, but also kept me humble. I encourage my 3 boys to play whatever team sport they want because those times being on a team help shape who you are. Two are committed and playing high school football(RiverEast and West K) and the other hockey (RiverEast Royals). All three train all year round for their respected teams and plan to play in University. It keeps them away from a lot of negative influences and focussed on their grades as they realize that is going to be a big part of continuing towards their goals. Life is about being part of a team and life is competitive. You compete in the work force, our health/wellbeing, and sometimes even love lol. It’s made me a better professional in my career and a better family member. Injuries can happen anywhere at anytime doing almost anything, but the personal traits you develop through sport help you fight through a lot personal battles that are much more challenging.

I can relate Booch. I had the same amount of knee surgeries minus one on the second knee. Tore all the ligaments twice in the right knee. First time was at age 17 and the second time I was 19. They had to take tendons from the left to use to graft the ligaments in the right. Meniscus was eventually taken out at 24 because you can only shave it down so many times. The pain from arthritis throughout my late 20s and and 30’s was torture. It was to the point I was chewing up percs like they were coming out of pez dispensers. Finally and thankfully in 2015 at the age of 42, I got my knee replaced and i have zero pain. Dr Burnell from Concordia hip and knee clinic is absolutely amazing. I don’t even need to take an Advil anymore. Right hip needs to eventually be replaced, but cordisone shots every 6-9months are doing the job for now. I totally recommend getting a replacement if one is required. I can’t begin to tell you how much of a difference it makes and the improvement of quality of life.

For those that have attended camp. Has the club practiced any 3-4 formations?

Good to know. Right before rookie camp we were hearing that he was feeling 100% and playing basketball etc... I wasn’t sure if he reaggravated things or there was some sort of set back. Hearing all about the hype regarding Fenner’s attitude and versatility had me wondering if Leggett would be our surprise cut. Not saying that Fenner is a better, but similar type of player and cheaper. Achilles injuries are ones that are difficult for football and basketball players to come back from. I like the idea of 6 gaming him right off the bat. Makes a lot of sense in so many ways.

Is anyone else wondering if Leggett plays for the Bombers this year?

Bomber Moves 2018
Ecstatic about the signing, however one year contract is a tease. Makes me hesitant to get his jersey
-
Bomber Moves 2018
Could Flanders bring any sort of return in a possible trade? Hell even a meg list player would be great.
-
Bomber Moves 2018
I heard he returned his signing bonus because he thought it was the right thing to do rather than be a ****** bag.

How much cap space is now freed up with Darian Douchebag bailing? I know the 70k counts, but what was his total contract for? This must free up a good chunk.
