Around The League Off Season Discussion
I agree....doesn't this bozo know that the Bombers have yet to sign a qb. for next season...or is he just whistling up his arse...Walters would be all over Franklin or Durant IF we don't re-up Nichols, which is a distinct possibility..Not even a mention of that...Guess he's not that in tune with the CFL...

Bombers Off-Season Transactions
IF he does fill the bill we certainly have a good un' ...This kid could be a really nice addition to the d line....Really nasty as well...Like it
-
Bombers Off-Season Transactions
Then the question is.....is he really worth 450K...I think most fans agree he is NOT....and so does the Bomber brass...That's not taking away from Matt's abilities....it's just being realistic.

Around The League Off Season Discussion
I can just see it...Jones looking very Trump like at his training staff, pointing his finger and saying YOU'RE FIRED.... I guess he had to do something as he hasn't done much else this year in riderland..

Bombers Off-Season Transactions
Rider fans worst nightmare...Durant to Wpg. to buddy up with Dressler and Smith...lol...They're shared skitless that we're going to make a play for DD that they're cooking up every scenario and deal they can think of, to not have that happen....Latest one is DD to Mont. because he's good friends with Kavis 'consequences' Reed...With the cards the Als. are holding, I think our chances of signing Durant are a heckuva lot better...all things considered... IF we don't re-sign Nichols...

Game 32 : Slip Slidin' Away @ The Crude Oil Blues
I get my hopes up game to game only to have them dashed after we show a little spark...This club is playing gawd awful and needs a shake up....It might be Maurice getting a pink slip orrrrr a trade that should have happened with Trouba at the beginning of the year...Don't know...but what I do know is this team has one helluva rook in Laine and the rest of the team (except for Schiefle) looks like crap...Tough to watch and I think something is gonna give.

3-Year Contract Extensions For Walters and OShea
Was making me a little nervous there for awhile but we got er done.....congrats to Kyle and Mike....Now get to work on our fa's...Sounds like Stanley Bryant is on board after his tweet.
-
Walters' Priorities
I hear you Noeller....Seems to be a bit long in coming....I'm getting a little worried about the whole situation with a few quality fa's that could follow O'Shea if he decides to pull up stakes...Gotta think positive....gotta think positive........................................

Maximum Value for our 1st & 5th picks
Gray is being worked out down south from what I heard....Could he be nfl bound???He sure would be a nice pick BUT if he decides to do the 'Bilukudi' circuit we might pass. We finally get the official CFL draft order Our picks are... 1st round...1 and 6 2nd round...6th 3rd round...5th 4th. and 5th. rounds...No Picks 6th. round 6th. 7th. round 6th. 8th. round 6th.

Maximum Value for our 1st & 5th picks
OL Dariusz Bladek comes in at 15 from nowhere...Keep an eye on this guy..
-
Maximum Value for our 1st & 5th picks
There are no trades affecting the first round other than us and B.C.. The second round and those following would be correct the way he has them... However there could be future trades affecting positions in other rounds..... So let's not include trades then ...the way he said...then the draft order he has is correct..
-
Maximum Value for our 1st & 5th picks
So why not just say what is the order after the first round....???? In that case he is correct that is the order for the rest of the draft UNLESS there are more trades....which could possibly happen
-
Maximum Value for our 1st & 5th picks
The correction is we...the Bombers are Number One overall....because of the trade with Toronto that netted us that pick in the Willy trade....The rest looks alright with us at no 6 as well, and through the following rounds
-
Maximum Value for our 1st & 5th picks
If this guy does very well in the combine and interviews well (sounds like a sensible family guy) he could very well go no. 1....Sure is nice to have that pic AND we didn't even come near to finishing last...Building something here for sure.

Maximum Value for our 1st & 5th picks
Y'mean So Long Bannatyne wasn't about the length of the street? Kinda 'sour suite' with this guy alright...just like 46201, which was Burt's apt. address on Bannatyne ...He could be a 'jerk' alright at times...Although he and Randy did play a Bomber game..a looooong time ago...I'll never forget the day I ran into Burt at a bar back in the day...He was sprawled out with his boots sticking out a mile from the table and I tripped over him...One of his goons sitting at the table yells..hey, don't you know who this is...apologize...I just looked at Burt and continued on and got my beer...A little arrogant was Cummings back in the day ,unlike Bachman who was a high school friend at Garden City collegiate...eons ago.. WOW ...that ain't football...BUT this is ... For a pic in 17'..I like this kid Danny Vandervoort out of McMaster....O'Shea should like this guy as he's from his neck of the woods... Big with great hands and reminds me a lot of Jason Claremont in his prime
-
Walters' Priorities
First priority is to extend Mike O'Shea...Everything else should fall into place after that.... The Argos' might be interested in talking to Mike O if they clean house...That is not a foregone conclusion at this point... Nichols has also a small question mark beside his name...IF we aren't prepared to pay Matt what he is asking, other avenues have to be explored, and two of those you would think would be to go after Durant or Franklin..Lot's on Walters plate right now not to mention re-signing our fa's, also scouring who could be available on other clubs fa list, and going over possible draft pics...He's going to be a busy boy..
-
Nichols Contract
Let's see.....Franklin knocked Nichols out of the no 2 spot on the Grey Cup winning club in Edm.....I'd say there's something there alright...Jones is no fool as far as talent is concerned ( a **** in other respects however) and he was Franklin's hc.. hence Corky's big interest in obtaining him....Yup I'd say there's something there alright and we'd be foolish not to kick the tires on a trade.
-
Quarterback Quest
We have to watch those greasy bastages....They are scraping bottom so you just know that any player that moves, is going to be on their radar...I think this kid Bennett is going to be good for them....not as good as Franklin would be for us however ...Mayo looked promising and hate to see him go.
-
Nichols Contract
Nichols says regarding the rumour about fa....'I am'...with a question mark.....orrrrr should it have been 'I am',period....Guess we'll find out soon..
-
RethinkIng Paul Maurice....
Looking like another playoffs miss right now and a trip by Maurice to Chevy's office....They better work something out soon.
-
Waste of time ...
Something ain't right....and it usually leads back to the coach...Ever since we brought back Trouba we've headed south...What the hell is going on....There's no papering this over anymore...Something stinks.
-
Last time the Bombers won the Grey Cup ... sigh
A mere glimmer of a memory now....and that's starting to fade....We better win won soon before the 'oldtimers' disease sets in and I won't have anything to remember with period... AND the moon landing....the dead give away was when they didn't come back with chunks of cheddar ...just a bunch of rocks..c'mon

CFL Tidbits..
First of all....Hall is still with us (but hopefully not for 17') secondly if that's all we can attract is Chamblin we may as well remain status quo at dc...Might as well bring back etch-a-sketch (choke, cough,cough)...... as the riders left overs aren't really thrilling me...There has to be better out there.

Division Final Sunday Esks @ REDBLACKS / Lions @ Stamps
Wally looking really shell shocked on the sidelines....squinting worse than ever...Squeaking by the Bombers for this...heh heh...Maybe the leos will come back in the second half or at least make it look respectable...If they were going to play like that they might as well have let us give the stamps a run...At least we would've scored in the first half.........................I think.
