    Something had to be done. This is a good move.

Dobson has been a beast on a bad Texas state team too. Their play could effect his NFL interest. At this point we could use more mid and early ish picks than firsts to re stock the teams and depth a bit. 

Patrice Rene is a good player as well. Got injured but has played well in the two games he has played.

Dobson is just a perfect fit for our line.

Excuse me!? Why are you quoting me? I did not said that.

And if you think the flying carpet is racist, Alladin the movie should have been disbanded in theaters before.

Tried to not quote you as it was Goalie who posted the comment but that was the way it came out. My apology if I have offended. And I still maintain it was racist- what if we had a Cree player who was in disfavour and someone told him to get on his toboggan and go back to his teepee?

It's in reference to a song in the movie,  not the man's nationality

They should offer Medlock a short term "performance based" contract. There are only 8 games left assuming they go all the way to the Grey Cup. Estimate about 20 field goal attempts. Pay him around $5,000 for every successful field goal.

I really don't know why people keep bringing up Medlock. The Bombers want him here - he doesn't want to be here. It's over. He's retired and doing something else.

It's because his name is similar to lyrics in a song. Would someone of a different nationality have the same name? 

Likely not - meaning it is a reference to his nationality. 

And telling a racial minority to "go home" clearly has negative racial connotations. 

So, while I know some people think others are being "too sensitive" - sometimes you just have to think for a moment before you say things. It's not hard.

Sure, it's just constant.

And it's never, "Oh, I wish we still had Medlock"

It's always, "The Bomber should do this this and that to get Medlock here", like it's simply a matter of Walters not trying hard enough.

The truth is that the return of Medlock, even if possible, simply kicks the can a little further down the road, and we would have the same problem next year. So, lets fix it for several years, whatever that would fix look like.
