So to watch all Bomber games will need to pay for TSN and DAZN accounts? Lovely

well I'm sorry but when I said that it was going to be MY final season I mea- *reads the article* IT'S A MIRACLE! https://about.rogers.com/news-ideas/citytv-renews-hudson-rex-for-new-season-and-announces-return-of-john-reardon-as-charlie-hudson/ well I'm sorry but when I said that it was going to be MY final season I mea- *reads the article* IT'S A MIRACLE! https://about.rogers.com/news-ideas/citytv-renews-hudson-rex-for-new-season-and-announces-return-of-john-reardon-as-charlie-hudson/

3DownNationCFL signs six-year broadcast agreements with Bell Media a...The Canadian Football League has signed new media agreements for the 2027 season and beyond, headlined by a renewed commitment with Bell Media while DAZN joins as a new broadcast partner. Six-year agr Tf is dazn? is that one of the free streaming channels like tubi? Tsn carrying less games is good for quality but surprising tbh how much live sports do they still have? More stuff on youtube is a great move though. Wonder what the financials are. I hope it’s not one of those deals for less money but with the potential to make more

This announcement is boring without financial details…

not sure if this is relevant to the topic but.... in the even the link doesn't show up here's what the facebook post said: Reaffirming a partnership that has defined Canadian sports broadcasting since 1986, the Canadian Football League (CFL) and Bell Media announced today a new, landmark rights agreement that solidifies Bell Media as the home of Canadian football across leading properties TSN, RDS, CTV, and Crave. Bell Media and the CFL extend a longstanding strategic collaboration through the new six-year agreement, with TSN delivering English-language broadcasts as the majority partner, and RDS continuing as the French-language broadcast and streaming partner of the CFL.

Hopefully Bombers win it all this year because I'm considering quitting the CFL with the DAZN Saturday exclusivity starting next year.

RJ Decker feels more like Rockford.

I think we might have to drop the idea of Shay being a player on D soon. He's getting passed quickly here. He's kind of a tweener. Probably really needs to be MAC in this era. Hasn't really jumped off the page in preseason yet either year.

The real problem isn't paying Kenny Lawler 300k a year or not. The problem is our US scouting has been the absolute shits going on 5 years. Can't win sustainably like that. Yeah we can go buy free agents, like Broxton, Ceresna, pay someone like Lawler. The fact we can hardly even find good US players let alone impactful ones basically since Schoen, Holm is a major problem. You win when you find those guys. You could pay Lawler and he could break his arm or drive drunk, not renew his visa or whatever and not be playing anyways. You need a steady stream of good players to win. When we had that, we won. Now we're grasping at being a 9-10 win team.

And then there's Dakota Prukop

Marner or Ehlers. I’d cheer for the former Whalers.

100% how I felt when I read the post...

really... the best receiver is CFL history is the best Bomber receiver you've ever seen?... what a bold take! 😁

If we are down 7 in the last minute of the game, and I can pick any receiver in the CFL to throw long to, it's Kenny Lawler every time.

You are more than welcome to recruit for a fantasy league here, but I would caution anyone on sending money to someone you don't know or just just posting here.

Nothing you've said in this discussion makes any ******* sense and the lack of countering with something you think speaks to what you say wasn't discussed makes it just that much more pointless.

You are assuming that he would have not signed with the Bombers for anything less.

Yes but they weren't used to talk about usage, they were used in the context of performance. In my opinion it's simply a case where there needs more discussion surrounding all those stats.

Well said and i’d also add the importance of training camp to add to evaluation and more recent film/observation whether you’re a seasoned veteran, early in your career or a raw rookie. No one gets a free pass.

A preseason game is a chance to put out some more recent film. There's certain positions where you need to see that. But it's just part of the evaluation. It's not about results either, it's about seeing what you're like when you line up against other guys that are trying to stop you. Remember Josh Bishop (a receiver we had in TC) that had a few long catches but was then cut and he went on to trash the team (fair or not), sign with the Argos (I think) and generally did nothing after that? Just because a DB blew a coverage does not make you the next big receiver.

Sheed gets a player development coaching job in d2 with west chester pen. That dude was born to coach kids. I bet he gave the dr a motivational speech when he was born.

Ooops...I thought I had Lidster on the PR/IR...I agree, and forgot about Ball. Personally O'd kick Korn and not even play him this next game...But I thinking how Osh likely would and you know he will keep him around Nah...all special teams aces...and you need that...Woodbey can play all 3 LB spots I am sure...and sure could slide to safety Same can be said for Ayers, and they both can do a quazi Jack type role all over the box Ideally I Would like to see Smith given the WIL role to start th yr and allow him 3 games or so to see if he is the answer there, and that would have us starting 3 Canadians on defence when only need 1....and you can freely rotate Ayers, and Wilson freely at any LB spot I was somewhat making my roster knowing Osh and his tendency for his fav's and vets....so if It was me I would role with Ayers in the Middle, and Smith at Will and the way we deploy guys Woodbey would be on field all the time as well in that role he played last yr. As well as spell off Smith for reps, and Shay could take reps behind Ayers. I'd actually cut Jones for one of the impressive rookies and allow for Shay and Smith even more playtime.....or at worst DA him...But we all know Osh won't...so thats why I slotted him in at MLB

Thanks for the football talk, you've given me something to chew on.

I'm going to disagree with @Booch and say having Woodby/Jones/K.Wilson and Ayers on the roster is a waste as you have 4 guys for two spots, as well as it blocks Smith and Shay from reps.
