Well, so far a 3rd American hasn't even received an opportunity. That said, they just cut Mcghee from the secondary and he had taken every rep with the defensive starters. Still, I look at as their plan is to start 2 Americans, 2 Nats, and then rotate between Vibert, Daniels, Chris-Ike, and Cobb. I don't think the 5 receiver set will be the most common alignment. Not at all. Ontaria seems to be having a great camp, but also mixed with going down every other day. We have no receiver depth to absorb losing one of White, Wilson, Demski.

Yeah.. all starts by rookie Strev on a broken foot and probably the main reason we went shopping for ZC. No one here is knocking ZCs contribution to our Grey Cup, just pointing out that Nichols was having a very strong season that year and played the best football of his career pre injury. We may have won the cup with him as well.

All of this seems like not very good news...

Should the Bombers look at expanding PAS to 40000? To take advantage of their popularity?

Good luck finding some one who would say “Yeah, that what I was expecting.”

Just when I thought I've seen everything weather wise BOOM dust storm

Still early, no doubt. I read today that Demski was out and they moved Cobb to his spot and Corcoran took Cobb's spot. So it seems like they are pretty set on 3 Canadian WR, at the moment. Couple that with the fact that they will want to pull out a Canadian WR at times to put on Daniels or MCI. So that's when Cobb etc would come out. I still think the offensive line is the most likely position that an American could win a spot. Heard good things about Elsbury and we know Randolph and Vanterpoole can play.

what about Dante Daniels?

Personally I think they are trying to decide whether to play 3 Nat receivers or 3 Nat OL. That would give the illusion we are starting 9 because you have to give each set of 3 a long look. Day 5 at the beginning of camp is probably not what we are going to 5 days before the end of camp. IMHO, if we went with 3 NAT receivers either Cobb/Corcoran/Clercius would have to have incredible camps or our contingent of new IMP recruits a total disaster

Drakkar Noir is more 90's. Axe didn't come out (in North America at least) until the early 2000's.

8-2 with Nichols starting though. And never got our butts kicked in the two losses.

I associate the 90's smell of going to the bar and smelling cigarettes and the smell of the guys loaded up with Axe body spray.

It appears to me that the Bombers are leaning towards starting 9 Canadians again - Oliveira, Neufeld, Eli, Wallace, Demski, Nield, Cobb/Corcoran/Clercius, Lawson, Kramdi. I guess the big question is whether an American can win a starting job at C over Eli... Can't see them cutting Neufeld or Wallace. I'd be curious if anyone has been getting first team reps at C other than Eli.

So far this guy says all the right things. https://www.bluebombers.com/2026/05/14/taylor-elgersma-may-14/

I just went to the St Vital Hot Topic, I don't know if New Store Smell is a thing but it should be because it smelled like a dream night club (I can't say it smells like the 90's because to me the 90s would smell like a slurpee spilled on the floor of a 7-11 or any concession stand)

Thanks good sir...Was gonna be in the area so figured on taking some camp in if there was practice

They had lost 4 of 5 before the ZC trade. There was a game vs. Hamilton that was just an absolute mess.

I’m not fixated about anything. All I said was my initial thoughts were I’m glad we’re not sticking to the status quo. I don’t know if he’s good or not good, but we have a history and tendency to play guys simply because they have a little bit of experience. Like you said yourself. You want the best players on the field. Maybe he is the best guy for the job (doubt it because he’s been cut multiple times) but you’re the one who is getting bent out of shape over this.

You want the best players but you're fixated on cutting a guy just because he's played in the CFL before and is 26? Like I said....steaming.

Shakes me 🤷‍♂️

Sometimes, as fans, we value backups more than starters until we see them play. Myron Mitchell was cut in camp? If you are asking if he should have been cut the answer is probably. Coaches always value vets, every coach ever, if all things are equal you go with the vet unless there is some serious cap savings, or the other players upside is so high that you just gotta let him take his rookie lumps. It is nonsense to say that MOS does not give young players a chance. There are a ton of guys that were year two starters on our team. There are even a few guys that were rookies with us and were starters first year. Just because we don't replace every player based on a TIMEX like they do with airplanes, does not mean we refuse to use young guys. To be the man you gotta beat the man. Sure OSH gives his vets a little more leash than most, but I think this board goes a little over the top sometimes when it suggests that MOS won't make changes if need be.
