Posted June 3, 201510 yr comment_122650 @DarrinBauming Stanley Bryant, after pulling out of practice yesterday, is not participating in Day 4 of #Bombers #CFLTC today @friesensunmedia News: DE Zach Anderson back in camp for #Bombers. Rec Addison Richards and OL Stanley Bryant are not. @PaulWiecek S Maurice Leggett is also sitting out again today, but DL Zach Anderson is back on the field. #bn @PaulWiecek #Bombers rookie R Addison Richards is also sitting out practice again today. #bn @DarrinBauming O'Shea said he needs a couple more days so no surprise Addison Richards is again not taking part in Day 4 of #Bombers camp.
June 3, 201510 yr comment_122651 I'm starting to see what the people who were bothered by the lack of coverage were saying. Knowing who is injured is great and all but what about ... oh, I dunno ... anything else?
June 3, 201510 yr comment_122652 Local journalists who actually know a little bit about football and who are interested in the game's nuances would be a nice thing to have. But, alas. That's why I enjoy this forum - there's usually, regularly, more valuable and informed news and info here than from the paid media.
June 3, 201510 yr comment_122654 It would be nice to get some updates on position battles.... how are the contenders pushing Cotton... which Int WRs are standing out.... how's the Chungh vs Goossen vs Greaves vs Neufeld battel... What about RT... any of the new LBs look good... so much is going on but we're not hearing too much...
June 3, 201510 yr comment_122656 If you guys want to cover my daily pay, I'll skip work and watch camp.
June 3, 201510 yr comment_122657 With camp being slightly less accessible this year (hey, they did their best), we are having to rely on the media a bit more for daily reports. Pretty sure their day at camp goes like this: Show up, sit in front row, note who isn't practicing, talk about their fishing weekend, camp ends, ask Mike O'Shea when players will be back on the field. Rinse, repeat.
June 3, 201510 yr comment_122658 Looks like every sport media covering the Bombers TC is more focus on every controversy they can get and don't care much with the actions and positional battles on the training camp.
June 3, 201510 yr comment_122660 guys, it is day 4, no ex game yet, what do u want them to tell u i do not like that Addison is sitting out, he could have had his bell rung in rookie camp, and if that is the case, no one will say a word about that

June 3, 201510 yr comment_122665 For example ... Stanley Bryant sitting out practice today. Okay. Who took his spot? Who is lining up with the first team as safety with Leggett sitting? He's only been sitting out pretty much the entirety of camp, but I have yet to hear who filled the spot.

June 3, 201510 yr comment_122667 Having to depend more on our mostly lazy and entitled local football media for news......is not an ideal situation.
June 3, 201510 yr comment_122671 Tuscaloosablue.... Winnipeg Sports Media... Why can't we just have something in between
June 3, 201510 yr comment_122673 Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming 10m10 minutes ago It appears running back Paris Cotton has hurt his left shoulder after engaging with LB Kalil Bass — yells in frustration. #Bombers Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming 9m9 minutes ago Cotton is toughing it out. Minutes later, he's now running with the first-team skeleton. #Bombers Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming 5m5 minutes ago Returner Troy Stoudermire, who split sessions on Days 1 & 2 between O/D and was w DBs yesterday is back with O this am — making the catches.
June 3, 201510 yr comment_122674 Maybe the media folks in Winnipeg finally figured out if they tweet it in real time, no one needs to read their articles the next day. Still doesn't answer why the fans aren't giving us updates this year.

Still doesn't answer why the fans aren't giving us updates this year. I don't think anyone here owes anyone an explanation for why they're not providing camp updates.

Still doesn't answer why the fans aren't giving us updates this year. I usually do 2 or 3 updates per year but I just haven't felt like going with the format the way it is. I like to just relax a few rows up and take it all in and unfortunately can't do that this year so I don't really have any motivation to go.

Still doesn't answer why the fans aren't giving us updates this year. I don't think anyone here owes anyone an explanation for why they're not providing camp updates. I'm not suggesting they do. I've noticed a big difference this year in the number of folks sharing the TC experience around here, so I'm wondering why... Sideline access instead of stadium? Folks not wanting to take the heat for their opinions around here? No one going to camp? Folks lost interest in the Bombers? Relying on what the Bombers and the local media give us is good enough for most? Something else?

He's only been sitting out pretty much the entirety of camp, but I have yet to hear who filled the spot. I vaguely remember hearing that Sherman was playing some safety, at least for a little bit.

I'm planning on going this weekend, so I'll see what the view is like.
June 3, 201510 yr comment_122684 Darrin Bauming @DarrinBauming 8s8 seconds ago #Bombers receiver hopeful Greg Childs carted away from the practice facility, right leg extended.

June 3, 201510 yr Author comment_122690 Even if he does come back, that explosiveness is going to be sapped .. lots of mileage because of the beat up legs. Hopefully it's not serious.

I can see how the experience would be so much better if TC were in the stadium. This FIFA crap better be worth it. Last night I watched Global Winnipeg on the satellite to get the Bomber news, and there was a 30 second blurb on injuries and then a five minute segment on how the organizers are covering up logos on IGF for soccer. Yawn.
