It’s so weird that some people here have become fixated on Jones. To quote bearpants “he's good, some games even very good... but nowhere near elite”. Why is that a problem? I’ll take good to very good. Not every guy on every team can be elite. How many guys in the CFL can we even label as being elite?

The worst Lber in the league in coverage. It is changing, but it is going more to a large zone defender, less to the between-the-tackles run stopper. I don't think the rookies were here with a real chance to win that spot, kinda like how we keep bringing in imp rbs. That said, I think they went into camp reasonably open to the 3 vets at Lber. If Lber was an open battle, Smith would've cleanly won 1 starting spot. And I doubt that is happening. Lber isn't the most impactful position on the field in the CFL, and the more we play guys like Woodbey the more we can cover up for Jones ' deficiencies in pass d.

Dust off your fur coats for the home opener, Strevy's throwing a retirement party. 😄

"You do not have permission to vote in this poll, or see the poll results." I assumed it just meant I already voted so I can't vote again and the poll results are hidden

I would too but Bighill is gone. Look around the league, the role of the MIKE has changed in the CFL. We did have 3-4 candidates in camp, and we even signed Santos Knox to compete. Not sure where this fictional narrative of no competition comes from? Because TJ keeps winning the job?

I also got the error message.

this is exactly my problem with Tony Jones... he kind of represents what the team has become over the last few years... he's good, some games even very good... but nowhere near elite... and his position seems to be set in stone, with no competition... why are we so set on being just good and not trying to be great?... Unless you have prime Bighill, you should have at least 3 or 4 MLB candidates in camp trying to improve the position...

West all-star because tackles111!!!! I'd rather a MLB that makes plays not tackles.

I see the error now too... I think it's telling us that we can't vote again because we have already done it.

Tony Jones was a West all star last year. I get your point but TJ is not a pet. He is a good MIKE, he's no Bighill in his prime, but the disrespect he gets around here is 100% unfounded. If you wanna talk about pets we have half a dozen MUCH better examples than that. The guy lining up next to TJ for instance.

i got error too

I was looking at roster on team site...so who knows whats accurate I guess...He used to be on Pr there, so who knows lol

as u be dooshin

To say that Cobb with 6 catches averaging 8.5 yards a catch on his Bomber resume is either solid or versatile is wrong. We have no idea if the guy can actually consistently play at the CFL level. We've had receivers with better numbers than that cut in the past. If we have to start him then we did little to improve our receiving corps from last year.

Maybe Eli isn't one of O'Shea's pets- like Tony Jones and it is starting to look like the usual list of favoured players is being assembled.

were you expecting 12 catches for 250 yards and 4 TDs from the fifth receiver?... he knows his role, he can catch, run, block, and backup as a kick returner... again, not an all-star but a serviceable guy as your 4th Canadian receiver... to say "Anything is better than Cobb" is just a poor take

I definitely voted and got the same error message...

After submitting the picks the first time.

I see both @Stickem and @Goalie voted. When do you guys see the error?

Should be but perhaps realizing no nfl aspirations changes things. Think dudes a stud and I would have gone after him. Younger be Youngerin

You do not have permission to vote in this poll, or see the poll results. 50 got me a hat but no doubt it’s close tho. The Bomber StoreWinnipeg Blue Bombers Headwear | Official Blue Bomber StoreFind Winnipeg Blue Bombers headwear, including hats, caps, and beanies. Official fan gear perfect for game day and everyday wear.

Having visited the Bomber store last summer I can tell you that a $50 gift certificate doesn't buy much anymore. I don't even think it buys you a decent Bomber hat any more. I was blown away by the prices.

So it’s up to teams to grow the game in their local communities. Winnipeg is leading the way. Toronto is doing nothing. Toronto prob better off if like peg and Sask, they were community owned.

lol. You do know people have to accept PR spots and why would we PR American linebacker when we have 20 Canadian linebackers. Every year some pie in the sky can’t believe they kept insert Tony jones or Kyrie Wilson here. They still talking of Bryan Randall. ;) And to show how little he stood out, when broski said Bailey was released my first thought was Someone bumped a post from years ago and Rasheed was let go.

Spending money on a lawn sign would be an improvement for the Stamps. What's the season ticket count now?
