November 16, 20159 yr comment_169229 This is sadly becoming my favorite time of year as a Bomber fan. The only time I have hope. I prefer late-May/early-June....."No question, we'll be at least a 10-win team this year!!"
November 17, 20159 yr comment_169451 Not an impending free agent, but more of a missing Bomber in the recent past. Addison Richards. It has been noted on T.E.P., by a certain missing poster, that: "He's having offseason hip surgery and is expected to be ready for training camp. He's seeing a hip specialist as his issue is a little complicated." That poster? - gbill2004

November 17, 20159 yr comment_169467 A little OT but Chris Matthews just got released by the Seahawks today: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/11/17/seahawks-waiving-super-bowl-breakout-wideout-chris-matthews/ I'm sure he'll try to explore all NFL options first but could be available next spring.
November 17, 20159 yr comment_169469 I'd offer him Nick Moores $$ after if/when he decides to come back to the CFL

Such an attention *****.  Back to the Matthews thing....how old is he and how much tread left on tires?
November 17, 20159 yr comment_169476   Riders will have 25 free-agents, among them are:  Robb Bagg Chris Getzlaf Ryan Smith Alex Hall Tyron Brackenridge Tyree Hollins Paul Woldu Marshay Green Anthony Allen  All 9 of those guys would make us a considerably better team. If we don't go hard in free agency this year, I will be extremely disappointed.  They've gone hard in free agency both years under Walters and signed some of the bigger names available. It doesn't mean a damned thing if you can't draft well and can't supplement your free agent additions through your scouting.  Free agency is but one part of building a winning team. Scouting is so important & where we've really fallen down. Our CFL draft record is so so under Walters. A hit with Chungh & a miss with Richards & that seems how it's been since 2014. Very similar to Joe Mack. I don't see much of a difference with Walters & I was a huge critic of Mack's drafting .I expected much more from Walters as he was considered a CIS guru when it came to drafting players. Very much a disappointment. I wouldn't want Bagg or Getzlaff here. Older players who will want big contracts again on the downside. Getzlaff can't stay healthy. I like Anthony Allen. If there's 1 FA from the Riders worth signing, it would be Allen.

Waggoner will make more of an impact next year too.  I'm going to wait a year or two before passing judgement on Walter's drafting.

November 17, 20159 yr comment_169482 what happened to gbill2004? ok went to the wpgbluebomber fan forum he's postng there, so he just bailed on us. or got kicked out..... I'd suspect banned for talking crap about the mods here. Saw him on TEP also. Saw him posting Penton's article about OC's and actually taking credit like he wrote it. Dude has snapped. Gone cwazy
November 17, 20159 yr comment_169483 As for free agents... Andrew Harris made some interesting comment about needing to find out where his heart is.... perhaps it's in Winnipeg. That would be awesome and also help out our Canadian ratio
November 17, 20159 yr comment_169489 lol "cwazy" Â there's a guy on the nerd show that talks like elmer fudd. Â love that guy.
November 17, 20159 yr comment_169504  what happened to gbill2004?  ok  went to the wpgbluebomber fan forum he's postng there, so he just bailed on us.  or got kicked out.....  Always enjoyed gbills contributions and hope he comes back soon. This forum should be working to attract posters, not drive them away.  His problem was that for all his stalking of people on twitter to try and get a scoop he really didn't know much about football. Yeah he went to training camp but I don't think he really knew what the hell he was watching cause his reports often were contradictory to what everyone else saw. Just another attention ***** who wasn't smart enough to really get the respect and attention he so desperately wanted.Â
November 17, 20159 yr comment_169512 Probably enough about gbill, he made a decision to no longer be a member here so let's let him be. If anyone wants to know more, you sure all seem to know where you can find him and ask.

Drafted de goods damaged!!!"
November 17, 20159 yr comment_169539 Matthew Scianitti @TSNScianitti As #Argos close 2015 today, their pending FAs include Ray, Owens, Harris, Keeping, Foley,  Laing , Cummings, Okpalaugo, Gabriel & Waters  #CFL   Those will be a nice additions for the Bombers. Damn.... I really thought Coombs was going to be a FA this year. Thought for sure he wanted to come home..... too bad
November 17, 20159 yr comment_169542 As for free agents... Andrew Harris made some interesting comment about needing to find out where his heart is.... perhaps it's in Winnipeg. That would be awesome and also help out our Canadian ratio Harris could sign here for $10,000 less and still live better. Vancouver is a great cosmopolitan city with an incredibly diverse assortment of stores and restaurants downtown, but you gotta have the bucks. Harris's career isn't going to last forever and I would bet his post-CFL life would be a lot better here.

November 17, 20159 yr comment_169548 Arceneux also a FA if not resigned I would expect us to make a big push to get him

November 18, 20159 yr comment_169556 Curious how much gas is in the tank for Harris. He hasn't looked particularly great the last couple seasons, but not sure if that's him or the Lions...
