Chris Streveler interview..( he does have a shirt on)

https://www.azcardinals.com/video/chris-streveler-press-conference

Barely recognize him with a shirt on

Streveler says lots of nice things about us. Which is great. The way he talks about the CFL is the way Doug Flutie did when he went back to the NFL & he still does today. They both had fun playing up here & both respect the Canadian game as it's not easy to learn. And the competition is a lot better than they originally thought when they first came up here. as well.

Thanks for posting  that. He's an easy guy to like. I hope he finds a spot and  does well.

Streveler is awesome.

^^^ totally this....ha ha. I didn't recognize a single one of those names...

I saw this list of players outside of the bomber account and I just assumed they were all on other teams. But I guess they were guys we signed this offseason? Not much of a surprise 

**** I just ordered my Texada jersey too

Or if you prefer:

I'm Malcolm Lewis' uncle and you guys are missing out on a future legend

Two guys you know

 

Noooooooo

Come on down to Winnipeg!

 

Good for Hansen if he gets an NFL shot....long way from driving a school bus or whatever it was.

Bobs take is a little off. An interest fee loan shouldn't exist for any business. It sucks, but I wouldn't have agreed with a decision like that. And Miller is trying to save face and claim the government dragged them along...? Your commish went to them with a Taman like plan (napkins). There's plenty of blame to go around, I'd like to see some of the high ranking members of this league take some of it on to their own shoulders. Stop pointing fingers and get the **** to work.

Except that's exactly what the Liberals have done through the Canada Emergency business account... not only is it interest free, they get a 25% loan forgiveness if it's repaid in full by December 31, 2022. The only requirement to get the loan is payroll in between $50,000 and $1 million.

Well that would have brought us up to $320,000... only $29,680,000 to go...

Going to play this fall in Poland

The Bombers have lost 6 guys that weren't even issued jersey numbers yet. 

Whoa, imagine that...

 

 

Nooooo

Alberta gets a lot of love as the Home For Backwoods Redneck Assholes, but honestly, Sask is right up there. One of Canada's first and only KKK homes was southern Sask.

There are POS fans across the league. We see it here, where our own fans want them to just shut up and play football. 50/50, they'll say to justify their racism.
