And we couldn't re-sign another all-star guard... who we adequately replaced last season.... this team is going to ****, wake up Kyle!!!

Don't Look Back - 2022/2023 Bombers Off Season
Don't want top rehash the grey cup too much... but the final kick is not the play that bothers me... I keep thinking about having Tor at 2nd and 20 at a critical juncture of the game (5:56 left to play, Bombers up by 6)... and allowing them to so easily pick up the first down... that's the play that haunts me

you pretty much nailed it with these last two statements... Was he a great and influential hockey player? Absolutely!.... Was he a great human being? Not even close

Game 52: Jets vs Blues
I turned this game on at the absolute best time... turned the TV on a few mins into the third and my first thought was "are we seriously going to get shut out, at home, by another bad team".... then about ten seconds later Morrissey scored. Had I watched the first two periods... I might've turned it off at that point.

I'm thinking it's the other way around... Eli was likely brought back to start... but I'm not going to pretend I'm anything of an O-line expert

Seeing Desjarlais sign with Ottawa originally gave me sad feelings... but then I thought about the quality of interior linemen we currently have (Neufeld, Dobson, Eli, Gray) and it made me feel better... then seeing his salary... my thoughts have now changed to good for him, happy he got his payday... and I'm glad we passed on that amount.

Good for Bo and the cats... if Bo is anywhere near is old self... Hammy will be a major threat in the east... of course, if Bo is done... so are the cats

I'm thinking about a positive spin on this... maybe he knows he doesn't have high NFL chances... and because he's Canadian he knows he can make a career and be paid well in the CFL... so rather than toiling away as a back up/3rd string in a big Div 1 program... he's going to come to Canada to put some dominant play on film and pump up the CFL interest... you never know

One thing I've wondered about this... and I haven't seen it addressed anywhere... is why is the kid going from Div 1 NCAA to CIS... is there more to the story they're not mentioning?

great coach to learn under... no doubt about that... but he's QB2 (at best) behind the guy expected to be the face of the franchise for the next decade... so not a great choice in terms of opportunity

I agree with you on this one... some of the CFL diehards will hate to admit it... but this is not about opportunity for Rourke... the opportunity will be whatever team offers him the best contract... he'll take it... Also, what's with all those stupid hashtags in the Farhan tweets... who the hell is EverythingBlue and OnePride?... teams have names for a reason...

the other thing to consider about Demski... with CFL players, we're not talking about millionaires... guys consider playing salary but also post playing career.... Demski likely already has business opportunities, maybe a job, and a home in Winnipeg.... and legacy... he could go down as winning 3 or 4 championships with his hometown team.... is playing somewhere else and getting an extra 15 or 20k worth it when you've got all that at home?

be interesting to see how long he wears two hats... I'd think they probably have a succession plan for HC at this point... maybe Killam
