December 31, 20213 yr comment_549192 Listening to Harris on Winnipeg Sports Talk he definitely sounds like he wants to play. Said that he still has the fire.
December 31, 20213 yr comment_549194 I've heard that Eli won't be back. Apparently guys where pretty disappointed with him and there has been little to no contact since the WF. It's too bad, really talented guy. Who I thought they'd bring back regardless of vax status. But looks like both parties are moving on.

December 31, 20213 yr comment_549197 My understanding is that the canadian government will not allow athletes to cross the border without vaccines going forward. It would be tough to lose him but its not a forgone conclusion that we'd be able to keep him anyways. There would be a team giving him a raise and a starting position this season.

December 31, 20213 yr comment_549200 He can go an block for Jeremiah Masoli in the fan controlled football league.
December 31, 20213 yr comment_549201 The club has added the following players to the roster: • Dru Brown (QB) • Cedric Wilcots (DL) • Mike Hampton (DB) 📝 » bit.ly/3pGUe9s #ForTheW Canada Life Co
December 31, 20213 yr comment_549202 Shame about Eli due to the talent but it does theoretically help with the SMS juggling act.

From a TC report by Ed Tait: There are four import defensive tackles who are also jumping out in Casey Sayles, the 6-3, 289-pounder who has experience in both the XFL and AAF; Ezekiel Rose, who starred at West Virginia; Cedric Wilcots II, who was spotted by Bombers scouts at the College Gridiron Showcase in 2020 after a superb career at New Mexico State, as well as Ricky Walker, who has been in camp with both Dallas and Cleveland.

December 31, 20213 yr comment_549207 Also another fun fact I found out...which isn't surprising because I saw him my companies store a few times...but Lawler is a massive pot head. Which just makes me like him even more

These restrictions shouldn't effect Eli as he is CDN., they may be able to delay his return pending Covid status but I don't believe they can prevent it. As far as I know his home is in Hawaii, which in itself is a a very good reason to never come back.

Hate to break it to you but if the Bombers or any other CFL team were to get rid of the pot heads there wouldn't be many players left. 2 minutes ago, Throw Long Bannatyne said: These restrictions shouldn't effect Eli as he is CDN., they may be able to delay his return pending Covid status but I don't believe they can prevent it.

ANOTHER coincidence is that the Crocetti name and the Collaros name both start with a “C”. It gets even weirder after that and goes on and on. Maybe you just think you “stumbled” on a “random fact”. There are other forces at play. I’m not kidding. I'm just waiting for Noeller to chime in about Zach's Italian heritage....he's a dirty Greek!

But looks like both parties are moving on. As they should. He put himself ahead of the team. Everybody else was vaccinated. Even the ones that didn't want to. Except him. People can say that's his right as it's his choice. The Bombers can say it's their right to release him as it's the team's choice. Works both ways. Edited December 31, 20213 yr by SpeedFlex27

He may want to spend more time with that. He's also 64 & may have decided that coaching in the CFL isn't for him anymore. It doesn't sound like he's retiring, though.
