August 2, 20177 yr comment_280722 Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming #Bombers release National LB Nehemie Kankolongo, who was signed and played two games while Jesse Briggs was out with an injury. That was quick, noticed Kankolongo on the sidelines but didn't see him on the field.

August 2, 20177 yr comment_280729 I think its a case of Briggs is healthy so Kankolongo is not longer needed.

Johnson still has a week to go plus hes american. The LB was canadian and was signed when Briggs was hurt and released when Briggs isnt hurt anymore. 1 +1 = The CDN briggs takes the Canadian LB Kankolongo spot... Who only had that spot cuz Briggs was hurt
August 3, 20177 yr comment_280842 Wonder if this means Wolitarsky is progressing quicker than expected. He did get some praise on twitter the other day. https://twitter.com/BlueBomberTalk/status/893132091126411264

August 3, 20177 yr comment_280853 If Wolidarski keeps showing well in practice (as per the Twitters earlier this week...) that can't be good for AR's prospects.....

August 3, 20177 yr comment_280861 It's not likely, but wouldn't it be a huge middle finger to all the naysayers if we could feature 2 NI starting receivers in the lineup when injuries take their toll?

I'd like to see Richards finally get a real shot before discarding him but that would probably have to wait until JFG is injured for a few games. It appears Coates is above him on the depth chart as well.

I still think if worst comes to the worst, we can always put Harris at SB (in place of Lankford atm) and have Flanders as RB. Harris is currently on pace for 1073 yards receiving

August 4, 20177 yr comment_281218 Richards is one step away from going out the door...How the hell we kept him around this long boggles the mind...How many games did he dress???Worse than that how many days since we signed him was he healthy and game ready??? I know the answers and they add up to pathetic... The way we stuck with this bust of a pic is one Bomber management should really take a hard look at, then ask themselves if that's the way a team looking for championship handles things...Bloody amazing...Demski is a free agent in 18'...I hope we can bring him home and make up for the colossal Richards failure

We won't win a Cup again until we have at least one Canadian receiver whose last name ends with "ski".

Being injured is never a good sign for any draft pick. It limits both the player and the team that drafts him. Maybe that's it for the kid. Maybe not, but wouldn't you really like to know if he had something to begin with? Keeping him around was never a problem for the Blue until now. Maybe now there is a replacementski, but it really was only the fan base that complained about him. And for no reason. Can you imagine the hue and cry if we had released him too early and he went on to better things? No, his time will come, one way or the other.

No, his time will come, one way or the other. well said. it really hasn't adversely effected our roster or cap so why people are bent out of shape for him getting perennially injured escapes me. Sure, it sucks. Im sure it sucks even worse for him. He had a very good college career from all indicators so I'm willing to bet Walters and O'shea want to see if he has what they thought he has still. Will he ever get to showcase himself? who knows. I'd have thought so but if hes PR'd now, its either next season territory or emergency recall I'd think..
August 4, 20177 yr comment_281236 So many CFL draft picks, including numerous 1st and 2nd rounders, have careers mirroring Richards. I don't understand the obsession and vitriol towards Richards on this site and the other. It's pathetic.
